TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - May 31, 2011) - Source Exploration Corp. ("Source" or the "Company") (News - Market indicators) is pleased to provide highlights from additional drilling in the area of the El Dorado skarn zone at the Company's Las Minas Project located in western Veracruz State, Mexico. The El Dorado mineralized zone is located on-strike and approximately 350 metres south of the drilling carried out at Las Boquillas – see press release of May 3, 2011. Drilling tested the zone over a strike length of approximately 150 metres and intersected up to 75.8 metres of mineralization with significant gold, silver and copper values. A plan map showing the drill site locations at Las Boquillas and El Doradocan can be viewed on Figure 1.

Significant intercepts from recent drill intersections at the El Dorado include:

• 0.88 g/t gold, 5.05 g/t silver, 1.60% copper (3.79 g/t gold equivalent) over 21.1 metres.

• 1.00 g/t gold, 5.86 g/t silver, 0.69% copper (2.32 g/t gold equivalent) over 14.80 metres.

• 0.54 g/t gold, 5.52 g/t silver, 0.71% copper (1.90 g/t gold equivalent) over 55.4 metres.

• 0.41 g/t gold, 2.19 g/t silver, 0.50% copper (1.34 g/t gold equivalent) over 31.5 metres.

"We continue to be very encouraged by the positive initial results from our drilling at El Dorado, stated Brian E. Robertson, Source Exploration's President and CEO "These early results confirm the on-strike continuation of the mineralized skarn zone and have begun to tie together the historic mines in the area. This information will provide valuable input into the design of our Phase 2 drill program, which will focus on expanding these high priority mineralized zones as well as test several new prospective targets."

El Dorado Drilling

Drill holes LM-11-ED-9 and 15 were drilled to test the on - strike continuation of mineralization intersected in hole LM-11-ED-8 that graded 0.73 g/t Au, 2.85 g/t Ag and 0.68% copper (1.99 g/t Au Eq(2)) over 33.6 metres.

Hole LM-11-ED-9 was drilled at minus 5 degrees and intersected 0.33 g/t gold, 3.17 g/t silver and 0.78% copper (1.77 g/t Au Eq) from 0 to 13.4 metres, followed by a 21.1 metre interval from 29.9 metres to 51.0 metres grading 0.88 g/t gold, 5.05 g/t silver and 1.60% copper (3.79 g/t Au Eq), and a further 15.5 metres from 96.50 to 112.0 metres grading 0.62 g/t gold, 4.02 g/t silver and 1.03% copper (2.53 g/t Au Eq). 

Drill hole LM-11-ED -15 was drilled at minus 3 degrees and intersected 55.4 metres of 0.54 g/t gold, 5.52 g/t silver and 0.71% copper (1.90 g/t Au Eq) within a larger intercept of 75.8 meters grading 0.46 g/t gold, 4.36 g/t silver and 0.60% copper (1.54 g/t Au Eq).

Drill holes LM-11-ED 10, and 11 were drilled as fan holes from the same location as drill hole LM -11-ED-9 to test the hanging and footwall contacts of the mineralized zone. Similarly, holes LM-11-ED-13, 14 were drilled from the same location as hole LM-11-ED-15 and also were designed to test the hanging and footwall contacts of the mineralization.

Diamond drilling at Eldorado extended the skarn mineralization outlined at Las Boquillas by approximately 500 metres to the south. The zone remains open on-strike and down dip. Copper assays at the El Dorado zone graded up to 3.05% copper, with a 21.10 metre interval averaging 1.60% copper in hole LM-11-ED-9. Drilling is continuing at the Cinco Senores Mayate adit, which is located approximately 700 metres to the northwest, and thought to be the on-strike continuation of the mineralization at Las Boquillas. Earlier rock chip channel sampling at the Mayate adit yielded 1.24 g/t Au, 7.6 g/t Ag and 0.43 & copper (2.14 g/t Au Eq) over 20 metres.

Au EQ g/t equals Au g/t + (Ag g/t x 0.019) + (Cu% x1.77)
