Diamonds North Starts Copper-Silver-Bismuth Exploration Project at Hepburn

Diamonds North Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:DDN) announces that the 2011
exploration program has begun on the Hepburn property in the Northwest
Territories. The program will focus on delineating areas of concentrated
mineralization for drilling using induced polarization (IP) surveying and
prospecting.


"The Hepburn property has already demonstrated high copper silver potential
along with bismuth, uranium and gold credit. Successfully identifying drill
targets on this property would be a significant advancement," says Mark Kolebaba
President and CEO of Diamonds North.


Initial grab samples from the property returned values up to 19.8% copper, 123.0
grams per tonne silver, 0.20% uranium and 0.17% bismuth. These showings appear
to be associate with a 3.5 kilometre by 1.5 kilometre magnetic high which is
semi-coincident with a radiometric anomaly detected by airborne surveying.
Anomalous gold values suggest the system is gold bearing (see news release March
4, 2010).


In addition to the Hepburn property the Company is actively exploring for gold
on Southern Nunavut properties including the Esker Property. To view a video
