Cream Minerals Reports In-Fill Drill Results For The Dos Hornos 1 Zone, Nuevo Milenio Silver - Gold Project, Mexico
Vancouver, BC - October 19, 2011 - Cream Minerals Ltd. (TSX-V: CMA) ("Cream" or the "Company") is pleased to provide in-fill drilling results for the Dos Hornos 1 zone, one of three higher grade silver and gold zones associated with quartz veins and quartz stock work zones. The in-fill drilling of Dos Hornos 1 is one aspect of the 20,292 metre Diamond drill program recently completed at the 100% owned Nuevo Milenio Silver-Gold Project, Nayarit State, Mexico. Nuevo Milenio covers a low sulphidation, epithermal precious metal prospect containing silver-gold mineralization in quartz vein quartz stock work zones hosted within a collapsed caldera.
Results for ten in-fill drill holes on the Dos Hornos Zone 1 are presented below. Some of the in-fill drill holes intersected veins in a structure identified as the Northern Transitional Zone which appears to run parallel to Dos Hornos 1. These results should be viewed in combination with seven previously released assays (see Cream news release March 30, 2011 and June 21, 2011) to obtain a better understanding of the Dos Hornos 1 zone. The objective of the in-fill drilling on Dos Hornos 1 was to confirm grade, width and continuity of the vein structures which has been achieved. Assay results from the drill program on Dos Hornos 1 to date meet or exceed expectations.
Nuevo Milenio contains a NI 43-101 compliant Inferred Mineral Resource of 54.6 million ounces silver equivalent at an average grade of 251 g/t silver and 1.660 g/t gold. Prices employed at the time of the report were USD$10.28 silver and USD$816.09 gold. For complete details of the Inferred Mineral Resource see Table - Revised NI 43-101 Report, dated December 24, 2008 on page six of this news release.

0.070 | SECTION 1aThe objective of drill holes DH 1-16 -11 and DH 1-17-11 were to test the Dos Hornos 1 structure in the HW of a fault (N70E/65S). Both drill holes appeared to intersect the fault and cut quartz veining, which at this time is thought to be part of a structure identified as the Northern Transitional Zone. DH 1-16-11 The mineralized section was intersected in the hanging wall and in the N70E/65S fault.

<0.005 | DH 1-17-11 This drill hole did show quartz stock work within a zone of faulting and intense fracturing at approximately 50 metres. This area of quartz stock work could represent the N70E/65S fault which off sets the Dos Hornos 1 structure. Assays from drill hole DH 1-17-11 returned low values. SECTION 1bDrill holes DH 1-14-11 and DH 1-15-11 are in-fill drill holes. The purpose of these holes was to demonstrate continuity of the structure and grade. DH 1-14-11 intersected the structure confirming continuity and the assays confirmed good silver and gold grades. Drill hole DH 1-15-11 cut a fault zone intersecting gouge, breccia and intense faulting consequently the assay values were low. DH 1-14-11 As stated above objective of drill hole DH 1-14-11 was to place an in-fill drill hole between cross cut adit 4 and Shaft 5 (these represent the main Spanish workings on DH 1) to determine if the structure is continuous and the grade are equal to or superior to historical grades.

1.592 | DH 1-15-11 The mineralized quartz stock work zone is cut by faulting producing gouge, breccia and intense fracturing in places. Fe-oxides and minor Mn-oxides observed along the fractures indicates water circulation which caused oxidation of sulphides, leaching and deposition of oxides. The significant oxidation resulted in low assay values.

<0.005 | DH 1-17-11 Did show quartz stock work within a zone of faulting and intense fracturing at about 50 metres which possibly represents the N70E/65S fault therefore the Dos Hornos 1 structure in the HW of the fault was not intersected. SUMMARYDrill results to date on the Dos Hornos 1structure have demonstrated continuity of the structure along strike and down dip. In addition, stacked sections by repetition of the structure through faulting were observed in several drill holes. A higher grade silver-gold core was defined within the centre part of the Dos Hornos 1 (Section 1 to Section 4) plunging to the south east having a halo of good grade mineralization. As in other zones (Dos Hornos 2, Veta Tomas) sub-parallel fault sections show low assay values which are localized occurrences. Gold grades returned to date are equal to or better than historical assay results which indicates the possibility of higher silver equivalent mineralization. Drill holes located in the Northern Transitional Zone (DH 1--06-11, DH 1--07-11, DH 1-18--11) have cut several unknown blind veins. These veins are a very important discovery at Nuevo Milenio. They demonstrate silver-gold values and it is possible they may host higher grade mineralization. The identification of the Northern Transitional Zone structure opens yet another important exploration target at Nuevo Milenio. The Northern Transitional Zone is in addition to the Transitional Zone reported in Cream news release September 13, 2011 which is now referred to as the Southern Transitional Zone.

All logging of drill core is completed and all core samples were shipped to the Preparation Laboratory of Inspectorate. Reclamation work initiated consists of levelling of drill site and filling in of water sumps followed by planting of up to 1000 native trees and seeding native grass. Mr. Ferdinand Holcapek, P. Eng., Director and Administrator General, Cream Minerals De Mexico, SA de CV, supervises exploration programs on the Nuevo Milenio Project. He is responsible for all technical reporting and is the Company's "Qualified Person" for the purpose of National Instrument NI 43-101. Samples are prepared in the Preparatory Laboratory of Inspectorate in Durango, Durango. In addition to the in-house check assaying, Cream Minerals De Mexico instructed Inspectorate to take approximately 20 % (1 sample out of 5) as marked on the sample shipping paper and take a split from the prepared samples. All samples are shipped to the Inspectorate Laboratory in Reno, Nevada. The check samples are shipped to the Steward Group's Preparation Lab in Zacatecas for shipping to their main Laboratory in Kamloops, B.C. for assaying. All samples are assayed using Inspectorates Genx 30 31 Element Package Au&Ag/FA/AA plus 29 elements ICP-AES Scan by aqua regia digestion & Hg by CVAA. The Steward Group uses their equivalent to the Genx 30 package of Inspectorate for assaying. Cream Minerals is a silver-gold exploration company.

This forward-looking information is made as of the date of this News Release and except as required under applicable securities legislation, the Company does not intend and does not assume any obligation to update this forward-looking information. Forward looking information is based on management's current expectations and beliefs and is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking information in this News Release includes, but is not limited to the planned drilling program on the Nuevo Milenio project and the Nuevo Milenio project's estimated mineral resource. Forward-looking information is based on a number of assumptions which management believes are reasonable including that equipment, personnel and approvals will be available when required to complete the planned drilling program, that no disruption to the program will occur as a result of breakdown, labour disputes, or natural hazards, that the assumptions underlying the inferred resources estimate are valid, including but not limited to the projected future prices of silver and gold, continuity of mineralization and grades, and expected recovery methods and rates. Factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to: the risk that actual results of exploration activities will be different than anticipated, that cost of labour, equipment or materials are more than expected, that the future price of silver and/ or gold will differ materially from those implied or estimated, that Canadian / US dollar exchange rates vary in a manner that has a negative effect on the resource estimate, unanticipated delays in obtaining governmental approvals or required financing; that changes in project parameters result in increased costs, of unexpected variations in mineralization, grade or recovery rate and other factors on which the mineral resource estimate is based, of failure of equipment or processes to operate as anticipated, of accidents, labour disputes and other risks generally associated with mineral exploration and development; a deterioration in general economic conditions; and changes in laws, rules and regulations applicable to Cream and the Nuevo Milenio project.
CAUTIONARY NOTE TO U.S. READERS REGARDING MINERAL RESOURCES
The United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") allows mining companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only those mineral deposits they can economically and legally extract or produce. The Company uses certain terms in this document, such as "mineral resources", and "inferred resources" that are recognized and mandated by Canadian securities regulators but are not recognized by the SEC. U.S readers are cautioned that while the term 'inferred resource' is recognized and required by Canadian regulations, the SEC does not recognize it. "Inferred resources" have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies, except in rare cases. U.S. readers are cautioned not to assume that part or all of an inferred resource exists, or is economically or legally mineable.

Cream Minerals Reports In-Fill Drill Results For The Dos Hornos 1 Zone, Nuevo Milenio Silver - Gold Project, Mexico
Vancouver, BC - October 19, 2011 - Cream Minerals Ltd. (TSX-V: CMA) ("Cream" or the "Company") is pleased to provide in-fill drilling results for the Dos Hornos 1 zone, one of three higher grade silver and gold zones associated with quartz veins and quartz stock work zones. The in-fill drilling of Dos Hornos 1 is one aspect of the 20,292 metre Diamond drill program recently completed at the 100% owned Nuevo Milenio Silver-Gold Project, Nayarit State, Mexico. Nuevo Milenio covers a low sulphidation, epithermal precious metal prospect containing silver-gold mineralization in quartz vein quartz stock work zones hosted within a collapsed caldera.
Results for ten in-fill drill holes on the Dos Hornos Zone 1 are presented below. Some of the in-fill drill holes intersected veins in a structure identified as the Northern Transitional Zone which appears to run parallel to Dos Hornos 1. These results should be viewed in combination with seven previously released assays (see Cream news release March 30, 2011 and June 21, 2011) to obtain a better understanding of the Dos Hornos 1 zone. The objective of the in-fill drilling on Dos Hornos 1 was to confirm grade, width and continuity of the vein structures which has been achieved. Assay results from the drill program on Dos Hornos 1 to date meet or exceed expectations.
Nuevo Milenio contains a NI 43-101 compliant Inferred Mineral Resource of 54.6 million ounces silver equivalent at an average grade of 251 g/t silver and 1.660 g/t gold. Prices employed at the time of the report were USD$10.28 silver and USD$816.09 gold. For complete details of the Inferred Mineral Resource see Table - Revised NI 43-101 Report, dated December 24, 2008 on page six of this news release.

Both drill holes appeared to intersect the fault and cut quartz veining, which at this time is thought to be part of a structure identified as the Northern Transitional Zone. DH 1-16-11 The mineralized section was intersected in the hanging wall and in the N70E/65S fault.

<0.005 | DH 1-17-11 This drill hole did show quartz stock work within a zone of faulting and intense fracturing at approximately 50 metres. This area of quartz stock work could represent the N70E/65S fault which off sets the Dos Hornos 1 structure. Assays from drill hole DH 1-17-11 returned low values. SECTION 1bDrill holes DH 1-14-11 and DH 1-15-11 are in-fill drill holes. The purpose of these holes was to demonstrate continuity of the structure and grade. DH 1-14-11 intersected the structure confirming continuity and the assays confirmed good silver and gold grades. Drill hole DH 1-15-11 cut a fault zone intersecting gouge, breccia and intense faulting consequently the assay values were low. DH 1-14-11 As stated above objective of drill hole DH 1-14-11 was to place an in-fill drill hole between cross cut adit 4 and Shaft 5 (these represent the main Spanish workings on DH 1) to determine if the structure is continuous and the grade are equal to or superior to historical grades.

1.592 | DH 1-15-11 The mineralized quartz stock work zone is cut by faulting producing gouge, breccia and intense fracturing in places. Fe-oxides and minor Mn-oxides observed along the fractures indicates water circulation which caused oxidation of sulphides, leaching and deposition of oxides. The significant oxidation resulted in low assay values.

<0.005 | DH 1-17-11 Did show quartz stock work within a zone of faulting and intense fracturing at about 50 metres which possibly represents the N70E/65S fault therefore the Dos Hornos 1 structure in the HW of the fault was not intersected. SUMMARYDrill results to date on the Dos Hornos 1structure have demonstrated continuity of the structure along strike and down dip. In addition, stacked sections by repetition of the structure through faulting were observed in several drill holes. A higher grade silver-gold core was defined within the centre part of the Dos Hornos 1 (Section 1 to Section 4) plunging to the south east having a halo of good grade mineralization. As in other zones (Dos Hornos 2, Veta Tomas) sub-parallel fault sections show low assay values which are localized occurrences. Gold grades returned to date are equal to or better than historical assay results which indicates the possibility of higher silver equivalent mineralization. Drill holes located in the Northern Transitional Zone (DH 1--06-11, DH 1--07-11, DH 1-18--11) have cut several unknown blind veins. These veins are a very important discovery at Nuevo Milenio. They demonstrate silver-gold values and it is possible they may host higher grade mineralization. The identification of the Northern Transitional Zone structure opens yet another important exploration target at Nuevo Milenio. The Northern Transitional Zone is in addition to the Transitional Zone reported in Cream news release September 13, 2011 which is now referred to as the Southern Transitional Zone.

All logging of drill core is completed and all core samples were shipped to the Preparation Laboratory of Inspectorate. Reclamation work initiated consists of levelling of drill site and filling in of water sumps followed by planting of up to 1000 native trees and seeding native grass. Mr. Ferdinand Holcapek, P. Eng., Director and Administrator General, Cream Minerals De Mexico, SA de CV, supervises exploration programs on the Nuevo Milenio Project. He is responsible for all technical reporting and is the Company's "Qualified Person" for the purpose of National Instrument NI 43-101. Samples are prepared in the Preparatory Laboratory of Inspectorate in Durango, Durango. In addition to the in-house check assaying, Cream Minerals De Mexico instructed Inspectorate to take approximately 20 % (1 sample out of 5) as marked on the sample shipping paper and take a split from the prepared samples. All samples are shipped to the Inspectorate Laboratory in Reno, Nevada. The check samples are shipped to the Steward Group's Preparation Lab in Zacatecas for shipping to their main Laboratory in Kamloops, B.C. for assaying. All samples are assayed using Inspectorates Genx 30 31 Element Package Au&Ag/FA/AA plus 29 elements ICP-AES Scan by aqua regia digestion & Hg by CVAA. The Steward Group uses their equivalent to the Genx 30 package of Inspectorate for assaying. Cream Minerals is a silver-gold exploration company. The Company's flag ship project is the Nuevo Milenio silver-gold project in Nayarit State Mexico.

This news release contains "forward-looking information" within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities regulations and including "forwarding-looking statements" within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. This forward-looking information is made as of the date of this News Release and except as required under applicable securities legislation, the Company does not intend and does not assume any obligation to update this forward-looking information. Forward looking information is based on management's current expectations and beliefs and is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking information in this News Release includes, but is not limited to the planned drilling program on the Nuevo Milenio project and the Nuevo Milenio project's estimated mineral resource. Forward-looking information is based on a number of assumptions which management believes are reasonable including that equipment, personnel and approvals will be available when required to complete the planned drilling program, that no disruption to the program will occur as a result of breakdown, labour disputes, or natural hazards, that the assumptions underlying the inferred resources estimate are valid, including but not limited to the projected future prices of silver and gold, continuity of mineralization and grades, and expected recovery methods and rates. Factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to: the risk that actual results of exploration activities will be different than anticipated, that cost of labour, equipment or materials are more than expected, that the future price of silver and/ or gold will differ materially from those implied or estimated, that Canadian / US dollar exchange rates vary in a manner that has a negative effect on the resource estimate, unanticipated delays in obtaining governmental approvals or required financing; that changes in project parameters result in increased costs, of unexpected variations in mineralization, grade or recovery rate and other factors on which the mineral resource estimate is based, of failure of equipment or processes to operate as anticipated, of accidents, labour disputes and other risks generally associated with mineral exploration and development; a deterioration in general economic conditions; and changes in laws, rules and regulations applicable to Cream and the Nuevo Milenio project.
CAUTIONARY NOTE TO U.S. READERS REGARDING MINERAL RESOURCES
The United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") allows mining companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only those mineral deposits they can economically and legally extract or produce. The Company uses certain terms in this document, such as "mineral resources", and "inferred resources" that are recognized and mandated by Canadian securities regulators but are not recognized by the SEC. U.S readers are cautioned that while the term 'inferred resource' is recognized and required by Canadian regulations, the SEC does not recognize it. "Inferred resources" have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies, except in rare cases. U.S. readers are cautioned not to assume that part or all of an inferred resource exists, or is economically or legally mineable.
