ICN Executes Agreement with Paramount for Dunes Claims

24/08/2011 7:12pm

Marketwired Canada


ICN Resources Ltd. ("ICN" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:ICN), is pleased to
announce that it has entered into a Sale and Purchase Agreement (the
"Agreement") with Paramount Gold and Silver Corp.
(TSX:PZG)(NYSE:PZG)(FRANKFURT:WKN:A0HGKQ) ("Paramount") - (see Paramount News
Release of August 23, 2011). The Agreement covers ICN's Dunes and North Dunes
Projects which are strategically located between Paramount's Sleeper Gold
Project to the north and lie adjacent to Newmont's Sandman Deposit, 11 miles
south of the Sleeper Mine. The 606 Claims subject to the Agreement (the
"Claims") cover a total of approximately 12,000 acres (4,900 hectares) and are
located in northwestern Nevada, approximately 30 km northwest of Winnemucca. A
link to a claim map is given in Paramount's News Release.


A 100% interest in the Claims is being purchased from ICN in exchange for
400,000 common shares in the capital of Paramount (the shares are subject to a
four month plus one day hold period). ICN retains a net smelter royalty ("NSR")
of 1.5% on the Claims not subject to other royalties (248 in total) and a net
smelter royalty of 0.5% on the remaining claims which were already subject to an
underlying 2.0% royalty to a third party. Paramount has the option to purchase
0.5% of either or both NSRs for a cash payment of $500,000 each. Closing of this
transaction is subject to regulatory approval and a 15 day due diligence period.


Carl Hering, President and CEO of ICN commented that "This is a mutually
beneficial transaction for both parties as Paramount can aggressively explore
the covered Claims (thus the name "Dunes"), and ICN will benefit from any
success here and at the Sleeper Project by virtue of its significant Paramount
share position. ICN will continue to explore its other recently acquired
properties in the overall Sleeper-Sandman district (see ICN News Releases of May
12 and June 28, 2011). This transaction could allow further funds to be directed
towards ICN's principle project, Goldfield Bonanza (see ICN's last News Release
of Aug 15, 2011), and is essentially a "non-dilutive financing".


In addition to continually evaluating new opportunities, ICN is primarily
focused on their Goldfield Bonanza and Rockland Projects, while Pacific Rim has
initiated exploration under the newly formed Joint Venture at Hog Ranch. ICN
plans to start a Phase II drill program at Goldfield Bonanza by mid-September.
The current plan is to drill an additional 20,000 feet (6,000 metres) before the
end of November, and then mobilize a core rig to follow-up in specific areas.
This Phase II RC program will focus on: 1) offset drilling of the newly
discovered and high grade Church Zone; 2) further testing of the other
identified high grade mineralized areas including the Decline, Red Hills and
Newmont targets; and 3) continue exploration drilling in the northern portion of
the patented claims along with completing the initial testing of the geophysical
targets identified on the Property.


About ICN Resources

ICN is primarily focused on exploration for volcanic-hosted precious metal
deposits in western Nevada, emphasizing targets with geological similarities to

zones associated with large low-grade gold and silver systems, as well as
explore for high grade deposits at the new Goldfield Bonanza Project located in
western Nevada. ICN continues to evaluate opportunities in established
metallogenic belts elsewhere in the United States. The ICN management and
geological team have extensive experience in Nevada and worldwide, utilizing
this experience to generate prime opportunities for ICN shareholders.
