VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - June 13, 2011) - Clifton Star Resources Inc. (News - Market indicators)(FRANKFURT:C3T) has received an updated NI 43-101 compliant report from Peter Bevan, P. Eng., on the Donchester property of the Duparquet Gold Project in Duparquet township of southwestern Quebec operated under a joint venture agreement with Osisko Mining. The report, commissioned by Clifton Star, states a total of 22.512 million tonnes grading 1.84 g/t gold (1,332,000 ounces) in the measured and indicated category; and 4.650 million tonnes grading 2.02 g/t gold (302,000 ounces) in the inferred category, based on a cutoff grade of 0.50 g/t gold. Mr. Bevan utilized the polygonal method of calculation on a total of 218 drill holes. A NI- 43-101 report to reflect the 2010 drilling program on the Duquesne is expected within two or three weeks, and that figure will be announced at that time. The following table summarizes the resources by property:
