TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - June 1, 2011) -

THIS PRESS RELEASE, REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE CANADIAN LAWS, IS NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWS SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

St. Eugene Mining Corporation Limited (News - Market indicators) ("St. Eugene" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company has completed an airborne geophysical survey on its newly staked, 100 percent held, Amisk North project. The survey consisted of a 1,584.5kilometre VTEM and magnetics survey over the Company's 100% owned 8,671ha land package in the Flin Flon Greenstone Belt, Saskatchewan.

Results of the airborne survey will be analysed together with the ongoing compilation and interpretation of historic data from previous programs. The Amisk North exploration program will be finalized once the airborne data is complete, however, the Company expects the program to include, initially, additional prospecting and sampling in order to further identify Au, Au-Ag and Cu-Ni mineralization. St. Eugene staked the ground comprising the Amisk North project because this part of the Greenstone belt remains relatively underexplored, and the Company identified several mineralized showings that were documented by previous operators.
