SILVER SHIELD RESOURCES INTERSECTS 6,668 G/T AG INTERVAL, AND 20 OUNCES PER TON AG OVER MINING WIDTH AT ITS WELSH SILVER MINE.

BURLINGTON, ON, July 5, 2011 /CNW/ -- 
BURLINGTON, ON, July 5, 2011 /CNW/ - (TSXV:SSR) - Silver Shield
 Resources Corp. is pleased to announce that all assays in the recently
 completed drill program totaling 1,238 metres in ten (10) drill holes
 have now been received including the re-assays with metallics.


Holes SCL-11-01 to SCL-11-07 were drilled in the SE portion of the
 property, 700m from the main Welsh Shaft, to test the new high grade
 veins and extensions of the veining discovered in our Phase II
 drilling. The area tested is immediately south of the Amador Gold
 (AGX-V) Silverclaim Lake property. The last 3 holes WSM-11-01 to
 WSM-11-03 were drilled to the east of the Welsh Mine. The Welsh Silver
 Mine area is underlain by Nipissing Gabbro that has intruded into
 sedimentary rocks of the Gowganda Formation similar in style and
 setting to mines found in Gowganda, Cobalt, Silver Centre and elsewhere
 in the area. As such these veins are narrow but, as demonstrated by
 this intersection, can be very rich in silver. At times these
 high-grade intersections are accompanied by copper, cobalt, nickel,
 arsenic, bismuth, lead, etc.


While all of the holes intersected mineralized veins, only Drillhole
 SCL-11-07 returned significant assay values.  Previous drilling in the area of SCL-11-07 intersected multiple veins
 with grades to 2,659.5 g/t Ag over 0.15m (77.6 oz/t). At this time the company is unsure if this is the same high-grade lens
 or one of the other numerous veins previously intersected. Silver-rich
 shoots in these settings usually extend for 10's of meters horizontally
 and vertically, pinch and swell and can mineralize the wall-rock
 adjacent to the veins with fine native silver or argentite resulting in
 mining widths much wider than the vein itself. Due to this nugget
 effect it is difficult to intersect the mineralized lenses by diamond
 drilling.


The following is a summary of the significant assays from SCL-11-07:


    --  1.04 m from 55.58 - 56.62 m grading 710.42 g/t Ag (20.74 opt)
    --  1.16 m from 90.91 - 92.07 m grading 532.39 g/t Ag (15.54 opt)
    --  0.09m from 109.29- 109.38m grading 96 g/t Ag (2.80 opt)



Included within these intervals are:


    --  0.20m @ 3,690g/t Ag, 1.27%Co, 1.14%Ni, 2.86%As, 1.32%Bi (Semi
        Massive Sulfides) from 56.12- 56.32 m. (including 0.1m @ 6,668
        g/t Ag, 2.16% Co, 2.09% Ni, 5.3% As and 2.40% Bi from 56.12-
        56.22)
    --  0.56m @ 1,102g/t Ag from 91.21- 91.77m (including 0.21m of
        1,255 g/t Ag from 91.32- 91.53m and 0.08m of 3,807 g/t from
        91.61- 91.69m)



The importance of these intervals is that economically interesting
 grades over mining widths have been obtained for the first time.  These
 intersections correlate very well with previous drilling and especially
 with values from the mine workings which are immediately north of the
 area being drilled. Further exploration work on the property will need
 to be from the underground access.
