Potash Exploration Report by Softrock Minerals (SFT on TSXV)

CALGARY, Aug. 29, 2011 /CNW/ -- 
CALGARY, Aug. 29, 2011 /CNW/ - The Honourable Nick Taylor, CEO of
 Softrock Minerals Ltd, headquartered In Calgary Alberta Canada,
 announces that Softrock Minerals Ltd (SFT-TSX-V) has received final
 documentation from the Alberta Government allotting Softrock 100
 percent interest for two years (subject to extension with further work)
 in 204,634 acres of potash, lithium and other Industrial and metallic
 minerals Permits.


The acreage granted was reduced a little from the amount applied for
 (234,000 ac) by the government holding out some for wildlife preserves.


Mr Taylor says the company is very happy with the parcels allotted, as
 all were picked as a result of detailed geochemical and sub-surface
 geological work by Softrock over the last two years, as some appear to
 contain some potash prospects ready to drill this Fall and/or winter
 after freeze-up.


Mr Taylor went on to state that "Our studies indicate that these Permits
 lie in the same geological type and age basin that yield the next door
 Province of Saskatchewan's prolific and world renowned potash mines."


To that end the company is now surveying the availability of rigs to
 start a core hole and at deep fluid analyses to determine possible
 potash reserves and whether they should be extracted by conventional
 mining or solvent drilling.


Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Service Provider (as
 the term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange)
