United Uranium Corp. (TSX VENTURE: UUC) and Star Uranium Corp. (TSX VENTURE: SUV) (collectively the "Companies") today announced that they have completed a ground magnetic survey on their Fort a la Corne diamond properties (the "Claims"). The Claims are situated immediately adjacent to the eastern border of the Shore Gold Inc. ("Shore") Fort a la Corne project. The survey was completed by Apex Geoscience ("Apex") of Edmonton, Alberta, and included an analysis of the jointly held Fort a la Corne diamond properties in Saskatchewan (the "Claims").

The survey was designed to analyze existing airborne magnetic anomalies and more precisely locate and define the anomalies through ground work prior to commencing a diamond drilling program.

Based upon the 2010 review by Apex of 2004 airborne magnetic data, a total of 361 geophysical anomalies were selected as being of potential interest for future kimberlite exploration. A total of seven anomalies were identified as Priority-2 anomalies and selected as being of high interest for future kimberlite exploration. A total of 36 anomalies were selected as Priority-3 anomalies that require follow-up exploration and a total of 55 anomalies were selected as Priority-4 anomalies, which may or may not require follow-up exploration for kimberlites.

Based upon the data review and ground truthing, a total of 17 magnetic anomalies on Star's Fort a la Corne Property were selected for ground geophysical surveys in order to evaluate them for potential kimberlites. Two anomalies, Star 179 and Star 352, warrant drill testing for kimberlite. Four additional magnetic anomalies may warrant a drill test and further ground geophysics are being considered to determine their future exploration and drill testing. A total of 25 Priority-2 and Priority-3 airborne magnetic anomalies were not the subject of the current group of ground geophysical surveys. The majority of these additional targets are considered by Apex and the Companies to be good kimberlite targets and warrant future ground geophysical surveys followed by possible drill testing.

Star 500, a very strong north-south linear basement magnetic anomaly was ground geophysically surveyed over a portion of the anomaly to evaluate whether it could be the result of a deep seated magnetite iron formation with gold and/or iron potential or a mafic intrusive such as a differentiated gabbro with nickel potential. The ground geophysical survey confirmed the presence of a very strong north-south linear magnetic feature that is likely rooted in the basement crystalline rocks at a depth of between 600m and 1,100m. The anomaly could be representative of a magnetite iron formation or a mafic intrusive complex such as a gabbro.

Apex have recommended a two stage exploration program, with stage one consisting of further ground magnetometer geophysical surveying on all of the remaining Priority-2 and Priority-3 magnetic anomalies, infill ground magnetic surveys at certain existing targets and a further review of the Star 500 target. Further, Apex have recommended a Stage 2 reverse circulation or core drilling program to test two to three kimberlite targets on the Claims, as well as one deep basement hole to test the possible banded iron formation.

Kyle Kozuska, President of United Uranium Corp. and Star Uranium Corp. stated, "We are very pleased with the results to date. Apex has further defined the Claims and we have gained valuable information to move our project forward."

The Claims are owned 50/50 by United Uranium Corp. and Star Uranium Corp., and include the claims that were formerly disputed by Shore Gold Inc. and awarded to the Companies in a decision by the Saskatchewan Court of Queen's Bench in 2007 and upheld by the Saskatchewan Court of Appeal in 2008.
