Bearing Resources Begins Drilling At The Zymo Copper-Gold Project In British Columbia

Bearing Resources Ltd. ("Bearing", or the "Company") (TSX-V: BRZ) is pleased to announce that the Company has commenced diamond drilling at the 12,113 hectare Zymo copper-gold project ("Zymo"), located 45 kilometres west of Smithers, British Columbia. Bearing has an option to earn up to a 65% interest in the project from Eastfield Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: ETF). Exploration work carried out to date at Zymo, including surface sampling, geophysical testing and core drilling, has identified a large copper-gold porphyry system. Four distinct porphyry targets (Hobbes, FM, URC and RD Zones) have been identified over an open ended nine kilometre by three kilometre area defined by a copper in soil anomaly coincident with an induced polarization ("IP") chargeability anomaly.

The Hobbes Zone ("Hobbes") is the most advanced target with ten historic drill holes intersecting copper/gold mineralization over a distance of 600 metres. The best hole (ZY08-09) returned 72 metres (core length) of 0.72% copper and 0.54 gpt gold within a longer interval that returned 159 metres grading 0.44% Cu and 0.32 gpt gold. The URC Zone ("URC") is 1.5 kilometres west and the FM Zone ("FM") is located 4.0 kilometres east of Hobbes. In addition, prospecting in 2010 discovered a mineralized float sample assaying 0.74% copper and 0.70 gpt gold, 1.5 kilometres west of URC, beyond the area of any existing grid work.

The 2011 exploration program for Zymo is budgeted at $2 million and is fully funded. The program includes 8,000 metres (est. 20 drill holes) of helicopter supported diamond core drilling, 30 kilometres of IP surveys, soil geochemical surveys, geological mapping and prospecting. For details of the proposed drilling program please refer to Bearing's news release 11-08 published on August 4, 2011.

Drill results will be published upon receipt and analysis of assay data.
