JOURDAN RESOURCES INC. (TSX VENTURE:JOR) - 



--  More than 300 spodumene-bearing pegmatite dykes intersected in 20 drill
    holes, ranging from 10 cm to 3 meters in core length (averaging 0.7
    meters), and have confirmed the eastern extensions of a number of
    historic and current showings within and outside the claim Block,
    including JOURDAN's Lamothe Lithium-Rubidium Showing 



JOURDAN RESOURCES INC. (TSX VENTURE:JOR) ("JOURDAN" or the "Company") has
completed the diamond drilling campaign on the Company's Lamothe
Lithium-Rubidium Showing (the "Lamothe Showing") from the 113 claims / 60 km(2)
Pivert-Stairs Rare Metals Project (the "Project") in the James Bay Mining
District northern Quebec. 


A total of 20 holes were drilled on the Pivert East #2 Claim Block (the "Claim
Block") for 3,053 meters and tested:




1.  a 300 meters long segment of the Lamothe Showing with 10 drill holes in
    total for 1,048 meters (PIV-11-02, 03, and 13 to 20) averaging
    approximately 50 meters apart; 

2.  a 900 meters wide swath across the Claim Block with 10 holes totalling
    2,005 meters covering the immediate extension of Critical Elements
    Corporation's ("CEC"; formerly First Gold Exploration) Pivert Showing
    (surface grab sample yielded up to 4.6% Li2O, 390 g/t Rubidium, 1.4 g/t
    Tantalum, 106.5 g/t Gallium and 90 g/t Beryllium) located 900 m to the
    northwest; Pivert East (surface channel sample gave 2.08% Li2O, 1,860
    g/t Rubidium, 159 g/t Tantalum, 90 g/t Gallium and 254 g/t Beryllium
    over 1 meter) some 230 meters to the northwest; Pivert South (surface
    channel sample yielded 0.87% Li2O, 2,229 g/t Rubidium, 169 g/t Tantalum,
    80 g/t Gallium and 431 g/t Beryllium over 28 meters) located 350 meters
    to the northwest; and Helico South (surface channel sample yielded 0.44%
    Li2O, 3,565 g/t Rubidium, 196 g/t Tantalum, 187 g/t Gallium and 505 g/t
    Beryllium over 116 meters) some 500 meters to the northwest
    (www.cecorp.ca). 



Highlights of the drilling included:



a.  More than 300 spodumene-bearing pegmatite dykes were intersected in the
    20 drill holes, ranging from 10 cm to 3 meters in core length (averaging
    0.7 meters), and have confirmed the eastern extensions of a number of
    historic and current showings within and outside the claim Block,
    including JOURDAN's Lamothe Showing; 

b.  A total of 764 samples were taken from the entire suite of pegmatite
    dykes with assays still pending; 

c.  The Lamothe Showing is located within a transition corridor between a
    syenite-pyroxenite to the north and a mix unit of granitic gneisses,
    granites and amphibolites to the south; 

d.  The syenite-pyroxenite forms a sub-circular 24 by 20 kilometers magnetic
    anomaly consisting of alternating sub-circular and narrow magnetic high
    and low bands or "onion skins"; 

e.  The Lamothe Showing extend in a northwest-southeast direction and at
    depth for the full 300 meters surface length over a 50 meters surface
    width, to a drilled depth of 50 meters, and remains open in all
    directions to the north and east; 

f.  Spodumene-bearing pegmatite dykes drilled at the occurrence extend for a
    combined linear length of 6 to 10 meters in a 30 meters (core) length
    shallow north-dipping zone, likely representing the true width of the
    Lamothe Showing; 

g.  The estimated spodumene content of the pegmatites of the Lamothe Showing
    ranges from 3 to 10%. 



The Lamothe Lithium-Rubidium Showing

Several northwest-southeast trending surface occurrences of spodumene-bearing
granitic intrusives or pegmatites were uncovered at the Lamothe Showing within
an outcrop area of 300 meters by 200 meters. The main spodumene-bearing
intrusive is at least 10 meters wide at surface and has been uncovered over a 25
meters length. The other intrusives run parallel and they all tend to be
sub-horizontal. There is significant spodumene-bearing angular boulder field
associated with the discovery trending further to the south possibly indicating
additional spodumene-bearing intrusives in this direction. The average grade of
the 19 grab samples from the Lamothe Showing was 1.06% Li2O, 1,441 g/t Rubidium,
75 g/t Tantalum and 72 g/t Gallium. In addition, the geophysical survey has
helped define the 12+ km long Pivert-Stairs (Rare Metals) Corridor which hosts
most of the Lithium-bearing intrusives on the Property, including the
east-northwest trending Lamothe Showing. 


The Pivert-Stairs Rare Metals Project 

The Project consists of the Pivert East #2 Claim Block (33 claims; 1,750
hectares for 17.0 km(2)); the Lac Pivert West Claim Block (2 claims; 106
hectares for 1.1 km(2)); the Stairs Claim Block (43 claims; 2,282 hectares for
22.8 km(2)); and the Pivert East #1 Claim Block (36 claims; 1,874 hectares for
18.7 km(2)), immediately contiguous to and northeast of the Pivert East #2 Claim
Block. The Project is easily accessible via an extensive road and trail network.
The Property sits less than 5 km from the Eastmain-1 Hydroelectric facility
where substantial infrastructure exists. There is an access road to within 500 m
of the Lac Pivert East #1 and #2 and Lac Pivert West Claim Blocks. A north-south
hydro line straddles the Lac Pivert West Claim Block. 


Earlier work by the Ministere des ressources naturelles et de la faune Quebec
(Boisvert, 1989) describes the Property area as containing irregular but
generally continuous lenses of pegmatites within the host biotite schists.
Individual pegmatites can attain up to 60 meters in width and more than 100
meters in length, collectively forming part of a much larger bodies having
kilometric lengths and widths up to 300 meters. Additional work uncovered a
number of Lithium showings in the region with a similar metallogenic context to
Lithium One's Cyr Lithium Property and First Gold's Pivert/Rose Rare Metals
Property, where irregular but generally continuous spodumene (a lithium bearing
aluminum silicate) bearing pegmatites occur. 


Quality assurance / Quality Control ("QA/QC")

The core from diamond drill holes was transported by snowmobile from the drill
sites to the JOURDAN core logging facility on-site at the Pivert East #2 Claim
Block. There, geologists and technicians from PJLEXPL Inc., a full-service
exploration contractor from Laval (Quebec) under the supervision of Jean
Lafleur, M.Sc., P. Geo., the Pivert Project Manager, logged, sample tagged and
half-split the core in 0.25 meter to 1 meter intervals using a hydraulic
splitter. The individual sampled intervals of half-split core are then inserted
in tagged plastic bag, sealed and inserted in large nylon bags readied for
shipment to the ALS Laboratory Group facility in Val-d'Or (Quebec). Blanks and
duplicates were inserted in the sample stream on-site at every 20 core samples. 


Once at the assay laboratory, samples are inventoried using the bar code
tracking system, dried, finely crushed to 70% at less than 2 mm, pulverized
split of to 85% at less than 75 um, and riffle split a 250 gram fraction for the
various assays using the Acid Digestion Lithium Mineral Analysis (Li-OG63) for
Li; Major Element Analysis Package (ME-ICP06) for SiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3, CaO, MgO,
Na2O, K2O, Cr2O3, TiO2, MnO, P2O5, SrO and BaO; 38 Element Fusion (ME-MS81) for
Ag, Ba, Ce, Co, Cr, Cs, Cu, Dy, Er, Eu, Ga, Gd, Hf, Ho, La, Lu, Mo, Nb, Nd, Ni,
Pb, Pr, Rb, Sm, Sn, Sr, Ta, Tb, Th, Tl, Tm, U, V, W, Y, Yb, Zn and Zr; OA-GRA05
for Loss on Ignition ("LOI") at 1000 degrees C; and TOT-ICP06 for % Total
Calculation.
