VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - March 31, 2011) - First Lithium Resources Inc. (News - Market indicators)(PINK SHEETS:FLNTF)(FRANKFURT:MHN) (the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has returned to the Mollie River Property to continue drilling DDH MR-10-10, which was previously drilled to a depth of 194m. The final 9m interval of that core revealed elevated gold and copper levels (see news release March 2, 2011). Project geologist Mark Fedikow stated, "The association of gold mineralization in altered mafic to intermediate intrusions is strongly suggestive of the geologic setting of the Trelawney gold deposits." Drilling should commence before the end of the week.

The depth to which the Company will extend the hole will be determined by visual examination of the core as it is extracted.

The Mollie river property is located between Sudbury and Timmins, Ontario, approximately 4 km from the eastern edge of Trelawney Mining and Exploration Inc.'s Chester Gold Complex.
