First Lithium Resources Inc.: Expansion of Drilling Program on Mollie River Property

   First Lithium Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE: MCI)(PINK SHEETS: FLNTF)(FRANKFURT: MHN) (the "Company") is pleased to announce an expansion of its diamond drilling program already underway at the Mollie River Property, located between Sudbury and Timmins, Ontario, approximately 4 km from the western edge of Trelawney Mining and Exploration Inc.'s Chester Gold Complex.

The Company has revised its original plan to drill 6 holes totaling 1200 metres (see news release dated November 24, 2010). It is estimated that phase one drilling on the property will now consist of 10 holes, totaling 1800 metres.

To date, 4 holes of diamond drilling have been completed, and the services of additional core-splitting personnel have been retained. The relative merits of employing a second drill and crew are currently being weighed.
