Highlights:
-- A total of 30 holes for 4,589 metres have been drilled since March 2011. -- Assays results for 7 of the 30 holes have been received so far. -- Mineralized zone of 9.0 metres grading 1.01% nickel and 0.86% copper. -- Detailed drilling at the newly discovered Samapleu Extension 1 has started. -- 17 additional holes to be reported in the coming weeks.
Sama Resources Inc. ("Sama" or the "Company") is pleased to announce assay results for the first 7 of 30 holes drilled since March 2011 at the Company's "Samapleu Project" in Cote d'Ivoire, Africa.
"We are very excited about the excellent nickel and copper grades being returned over good widths in this drilling program. These results, together with the excellent regional potential of the entire property including: Samapleu Extension 1, Gangbapleu-Bounta ridge and the high-grade nickel-cobalt Sipilou South laterite deposit, further enhance Sama's objective of developing a world-class opportunity at its Samapleau Project," stated Dr. Marc-Antoine Audet, President and CEO.
A total of 30 holes totaling 4,589 metres ("m") were drilled during March, April and May 2011 at the Samapleu Main deposit. However, due to post-election tension prevailing in Abidjan at that time, samples for the first 24 holes were sent for assay at the beginning of May. To date, assay results for 7 holes have been received and complete results for the remaining 17 holes should be available shortly. Definition drilling on a 50 m by 25 m pattern has been completed at the Samapleu Main deposit.
Readers are invited to visit Sama's website at www.samaresources.com for a complete update on Sama's current drilling campaign including all mineral intercepts for which we are awaiting results.
The following tables summarize mineral intercepts at the Samapleu Main Poly-metallic deposit and the few holes that have been drilled to date at the newly discovered Samapleu Extension 1 deposit. Mineralization starts near surface. Combined mineral intercepts were defined using 0.20% nickel ("Ni") cut-off-grades.
Drill rigs are now working at the newly discovered Samapleu Extension 1 located 1.3 kilometres ("km") north of the Main deposit. Several new excellent regional targets have been identified and will also be drilled in the coming weeks, including targets along the 19-km long Gangbapleu-Bounta ridge that hosts up to 11 newly identified mafic to ultramafic bodies, each with the potential of hosting mineralization. Ground magnetometre and induced polarization geophysics ("IP") surveys performed in January 2011 over the northeast end of the ridge have returned strong chargeability signatures similar to what has been observed at the Samapleu and Samapleu Extension 1 deposits. Preparation of drilling pads is ongoing at the ridge.
In addition to the Samapleu sulphide nickel deposits, Sama's license also hosts a laterite-cobalt-Ni-scandium deposit called Sipilou South, which is located 5 km northwest of the Samapleu Project. A total of 22 holes were drilled in February 2011, with intercepts including: 13.7 m at 2.5% Ni, 11.0 m at 1.9% Ni, 19.5 m at 1.5% Ni and 16 m at 1.4% Ni. Additional drilling will be performed at the Sipilou South laterite deposit in order to reduce drill spacing to 200 m x 200 m in the section north of the Mene River. Approximately 50% of the Sipilou South laterite deposit extends into the exploration license.

Drilling was performed by Global Exploration Services SARL of Abidjan, Cote d'Ivoire. Core logging and sampling were performed at Sama's facility in Yorodougou village. Sample preparations were performed at Societe de Developpement de Gouessesso's sample preparation facility in Gouessesso village under Sama's supervision. Sample pulps were delivered to Bureau Veritas Mineral Laboratory's facility in Abidjan ("BVML") and then dispatched by BVML directly to their assay laboratory, Ultra Trace Pty, in Perth, Australia. All samples are assayed for Ni, copper, cobalt, fer, sulphur, platinum, palladium, rhodium and gold using sodium peroxide fusion and determined by Inductively Coupled Plasma optical emission spectrometry.
The Samapleu Project is a joint venture between the Company's 100% owned subsidiary Sama Nickel Corporation (66 2/3%) and SODEMI (33 1/3%).
