IME Indicator Minerals Inc.

Indicator Minerals Inc. (TSX VENTURE: IME) today announced that it has commenced the 2011 exploration program at its 100% owned Mohave Copper Porphyry Project located in northwest Arizona.

"This is an exciting time for Indicator shareholders," says Bruce Counts, President and CEO of Indicator. "There is strong technical evidence to suggest that the Mohave Project has the potential to host a very large copper-molybdenum-silver porphyry deposit. We have excellent copper, molybdenum and silver results from rock and soil sampling, a classic porphyry signature from previous IP work and the chance to evaluate economic potential with the first modern drill program in the property's history."

Key Point Summary

--  Induced Polarization (IP) and Ground Magnetic surveys underway
--  Two phase, 10,000 meter core drilling program planned
--  Drilling contracts executed
--  Phase One drilling to start beginning of April, 2011

The 2011 Exploration Program

The program will include up to 10,000m of diamond drilling as well as extensive Induced Polarization (IP) and Ground Magnetic surveys. IP surveys are the primary geophysical tool used to define the extent of mineralization within a copper porphyry deposit. A previous IP survey at Mohave identified a chargeability anomaly more than 2km in diameter that is consistent with those obtained over other productive copper porphyry deposits in the region. This year Indicator will extend the previous IP survey with the collection of more than 47 line-km of data to the west and south where the anomaly remains open.

The core drilling program will be conducted in two phases with the first phase of 5,000m set to begin in early April and designed to test three or four spatially distinct areas of the property. The second phase of drilling will follow-up on phase one results and is scheduled for Q3, 2011. Preparation work has begun to improve road access and ready drill pads for the program.

The Mohave Property

The Mohave Project is located in north-western Arizona and is interpreted as a large-scale, copper porphyry deposit with significant silver and molybdenum credits. Exploration work has identified extensive copper mineralisation over a large area of the project coincident with an Induced Polarisation (IP) anomaly and complimentary structural features. The geology of the Mohave Project is believed to be analogous to the Freeport McMoRan Bagdad Copper Porphyry Mine, which is located within 35km of the property.
