VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Sept. 12, 2012) - Concordia Resource Corp. (News - Market indicators) ("Concordia" or the "Company") is pleased to report that all of the results of the second phase of drilling at its 100% owned Kerboulé Project in northern Burkina Faso are now available. A total of 10,367 meters of reverse circulation ("RC") drilling and 3,388 m of core drilling was completed in the Kerboulé area during the two phases of drilling during 2012. 

Highlights include: 20 m at 2.39 g/t gold ("Au") (hole KBS-RC-005); 29 m at 7.43 g/t Au (KBS-RC-010); 23 m at 1.27 g/t Au (KBS-RC-012); 40 m at 1.94 g/t Au (KBS-RC-013); 38 m at 3.95 g/t Au (KB-DD-005); 29 m at 4.0 g/t Au (KB-RC-010); and 4 m at 15.79 g/t over 4m (YAL-RC-001).

Six areas were drilled within the five-kilometer Kerboulé-Yaléma mineralization trend, confirming and extending the known mineralization at Kerboulé Main, Kerboulé North, Kerboulé South, and Yaléma. Further work is required in this area to identify the source of the significant artisanal workings in Yaléma East in view of the inconclusive results to date.

In addition to the above, limited drilling was carried out on new geophysical anomalies and a new area of mineralization has been identified at 'Kerboulé Village South East'. These results are significant, as it confirms mineralization over a much broader zone than the known Kerboulé-Yaléma trend. 

Significant new intersections from the main target areas are shown below.

At Kerboulé South the highlights of the 2012 drilling program include 1.05 g/t over 21m from KBS-DD-003, 1.28 g/t over 22m from KBS-DD-004, 2.39 g/t over 20m from KBS-RC-005, 7.43 g/t over 29m from KBS-RC-010, 1.27 g/t over 23m from KBS-RC-012, 1.94 g/t over 40m from KBS-RC-013, and 1.95 g/t over 22m from KBS-RC-017.

Highlights from the drilling at Kerboulé Main include 4.08 g/t over 5 m from KB-DD-001, 3.60 g/t over 5m from KB-RC-002 and 2.81 g/t over 5m from KB-RC-003.

At Kerboulé North, highlights of the 2012 drilling program include 3.95 g/t over 38m from KB-DD-005, 4.0 g/t over 29m from KB-RC-010, and 3.74 g/t over 5m from KB-RC-012. Significant intercepts from this area are shown below:

At Yaléma, highlights of the 2012 drilling program include 15.79 g/t over 4m from YAL-RC-001, and 8.51 over 2m from YAL-RC-003. Significant results from this area are shown below:

Highlights from drilling on a new geophysical target at 'Kerboulé Village South East", include 1.21 g/t over 18m from KB-RC-023 and 1.47 g/t over 13m from KB-RC-023. These are shown below:

The gold mineralization in the Kerboulé area consists predominately of discrete stockwork zones located at sheared lithological contacts. The mineralization occurs within tubular bodies lying sub-parallel to the main foliation fabric, the 'Inata-Kerboulé shear zone'. The 2012 drilling program was designed define an initial mineral resource at Kerboulé South, Kerboulé Main and Kerboulé North.
