Zinccorp Resources Samples 1300 G/T Silver, 30.3% Lead, 27.2% Zinc, and 1090 G/T Gallium at Michelle Project

Zinccorp Resources Inc (TSX VENTURE:ZN) (the 'Company') is pleased to announce
it has received assay results from 122 rock samples and 4 silt samples collected
during a 20-day work program at the Michelle Project in north-central Yukon
Territory. Previous exploration at the Michelle Property has revealed zinc,
lead, silver and gallium mineralization in dominantly carbonate form (with minor
lead sulphide) over an area measuring roughly 12 kilometres by 6 kilometres.

"The Company's 2009 exploration efforts have resulted in the expansion of a
number of zones as well as the discovery of some extremely high-grade material.
Information gathered from these results will assist in the planning of our 2010
exploration program as we continue to advance the property," comments Company
President, Richard Hughes. "We are especially interested in the high gallium
levels in the samples taken as this rare metal could play a major role in the
overall viability of the project."


The greatest success from the 2009 program was encountered to the west of the
Nanny Zone, where newly discovered mineralization located 300m to the northwest
assayed 22 g/t silver, 3.9% lead and 41.5% zinc. 600m northwest of the known
mineralization a sample returned 1300 g/t silver, 30.3% lead, 27.2% zinc and
1090 g/t gallium. A hand trench dug along the ridge crest above this sample
returned a composite assay from three continuous chip samples of outcrop and
subcrop of 30 g/t silver, 1.8% lead and 4.3% zinc over 6.0m. Some samples from
this area contain relict galena, in addition to smithsonite and cerussite (zinc
and lead carbonates), and minor traces of fluorite. The samples collected in
2009 extend the Nanny Zone about 700m to the west, and 100m to the east, for a
total length of about 1200 metres. 


One of the objectives of the 2009 sampling program was to confirm and expand the
Pinpoint, Civic and Nanny Zones, all discovered in 2008. A sample collected
about 400m east of the Pinpoint Zone in an area of anomalous soil geochemistry
returned 192 g/t silver, 11.2% lead and 2.3% zinc. This sample is on trend with
the Dynasty showing, about 800m further east, and may indicate a link between
these zones. Sampling at the Civic zone confirmed and expanded the known
mineralization. 


The Lac Rob Zone was successfully traced approximately 100m further northward
into the Dawson Mining district, and returned the highest assay result to date
from this zone, 9.4% zinc. At the OT Zone, the most north-westerly of the zones
discovered so far, additional mineralized float rock was discovered
approximately 250m southwest of the known mineralization. This sample returned 3
g/t silver, 1.9% lead and 2.3% zinc. 


A large volume of weakly mineralized dolomite breccia is present in the areas
examined in 2009 at the Michelle Project. While not economically important,
these structures indicate the presence of very large mineralizing systems that
connect the higher grade zones identified by high grade samples. 


Additional fieldwork was conducted on the southern part of the property in
September. Results from this work will be reported as soon as verification of
analytical data is completed. 


Zinccorp Resources owns 100% of the Michelle Property.
