Smash Minerals-2011 Drill Program Completed On Whiskey Property

Smash Minerals Corp.(the "Company" or "Smash") (TSX VENTURE:SSH) is pleased to
advise that a core drill program has been completed on its 100 percent owned
Whiskey Gold Property (the "Property"), located in the White Gold District of
west-central Yukon Territory, Canada. The property occupies 4,177 claims
covering an area of 846 square kilometres covering the placer gold-rich Black
Hills and Barker creeks.


Drilling Update

Eight drill holes for 1,665 metres of drilling were completed in the northeast
sector of the property and tested four targets, Bowmore, Bushmills, Glen Breton,
and Ben Nevis. The objective of the originally proposed 3,000 metre program was
to test at least three targets. A late start to the program and slow drilling in
heavily altered and broken rock resulted in less total metres being drilled.
Four targets were tested instead of three. An updated map showing the drill hole
locations is available on the Smash website at
http://www.smashminerals.com/the-project/project-maps/


All drill holes are being sampled continuously from top to bottom. Each sample
represents a 2-meter interval of halved NTW-sized (56 millimetre diameter) drill
core except where major changes in lithology, alteration, or sulphide
mineralization dictate shorter intervals. Lithogeochemical and petrographic
samples of representative alteration styles and lithologies are also being
collected. Assay results are pending for all drilling. 


Sampling Update 

Recent results from the ongoing field program returned values from detection
limit to 6.44 and 1.82 g/t Au in rock grab samples at the newly defined
Stranahan's showing. Stranahan's is a Northwest trending structural corridor
corresponding to a magnetic low and characterized by strongly brecciation of
sericite and silica altered felsic orthogneiss associated with quartz veins and
quartz stockwork. The Stranahan's showing is located in a similar structural
setting as the Glen Breton and Bushmills drill targets and exhibits similar
alteration zonation.


New assay results from 2-meter channel rock samples collected from recent
trenching in the Bushmills zone yielded results from below the detection limit
to up to 1.99 g/t Au and included 1.54 g/t Au with another zone averaging 0.46
g/t Au and 9.00 g/t Ag over 4.0 metres. Rock grab samples from the area
surrounding these new trenches ranged from below the detection limit to highs of
0.34 g/t Au and included 1.22 g/t Au. Three core drill holes targeted this
anomalous gold zone seen in the trenches. A fourth core drill hole targeted a
projection of this trend to the south at a favourable contact zone between
felsic orthogneiss and metasediments.


Additional rock grab samples from just west of the Ben Nevis zone returned assay
values ranging from the detection limit to a high of 2.85 g/t Au, including 1.97
and 1.55 g/t Au in quartz veins carrying pyrite and galena similar to the
showing at the Ben Nevis zone. The Highland Park zone and the CC zone remain
untested and are considered priority drill targets for the 2012 season.


Soil sampling and prospecting are ongoing at lower elevations, and will continue
as long as weather allows, probably into late October. Smash expects to collect
4,000 additional soil samples before the end of the season. A total of 17,012
soil samples have been collected to date in 2011. Since the last public
reporting, on August 24, 2011, an additional 4,677 assays have been received
from soil, rock grab, and channel samples. Year to date, a total of 15,856
assays have been received. 


The exploration program is being directed by Adrian Fleming, CEO and Director of
Smash. A comprehensive QA/QC program is in place to monitor precision and
accuracy of the assay results. All soil and rock samples are submitted with
certified reference materials. Soil sample duplicates are routinely collected,
and pulp duplicates are obtained for both soil and rock samples. Soil samples
are analyzed by Acme Analytical Laboratories Ltd. using an aqua regia digestion
and a 15 gram charge for ridge and spur samples and a 30 gram charge for grid
samples. Drill core and grab rock samples are analyzed by SGS Minerals Services.
Gold analyses are by fire assay using a 50 gram charge and an atomic absorption
spectrometry finish. Gold assays greater than 3 grams per tonne are routinely
re-assayed using a gravimetric finish to confirm initial atomic absorption
results. Both Acme and SGS laboratories are ISO 9001 accredited.
