NORTH VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - March 8, 2011) - International Millennium Mining Corp. (News - Market indicators) (FRANKFURT:L9J) ("IMMC" of the "Company") reports assay results received from First Mexican Gold Corp. for the recently completed rock chip sampling survey of the Bailey zone on the Guadalupe property (Hilda Property) package in Sonora State, Mexico, which is contiguous to Corex Gold Corp. Santana Property where consistently good exploration results have been demonstrated. 

First Mex reports the gold/silver/copper bearing Bailey zone has now had a total of 40 samples recently collected and assayed. Three of these samples were taken directly from a small ore dump at the entrance to an adit with the balance, 37 samples, taken over 55.5 metres along the rock wall face in front of and on either side of the entrance to this adit. The sampled rock face has been exposed to the elements for some 20 years. The sampling was done to further build the data base on this high potential target in preparation for future drilling. The rock face samples were taken every 1.5 metres. The three ore dump and 23 rock face samples are reported below.
