METALS CREEK RESOURCES CORP. ANNOUNCES INDENTIFICATION OF BULK TONNAGE, LOW GRADE GOLD TARGET AT STAGHORN STILL OPEN IN ALL DIRECTIONS

 Toronto, April 1, 2009.  Metals Creek Resources Corp. (the “Corporation”, TSXV: “MEK”) is pleased to announce that the Corporation has identified a bulk tonnage gold target on its Staghorn gold property in Western Newfoundland. The Corporation has recently completed a soil geochemical and ground magnetic survey over several prospective gold showings including the South Wood Lake Porphyry Zone. Gold is associated with a highly altered (silicified, albitized and sericitized) felsic intrusive, which is overprinted by a quartz stockwork system and pervasive arsenopyrite and pyrite mineralization. Work by a previous operator included two drill holes, which  defined the “porphyry” as an approximately 20 to 50 meter wide altered “dyke”, highly anomalous in gold and open in all directions.  The initial hole collared in mineralization and assayed 0.23 g/t Au over 52.9 meters. The second hole located 50 meters along strike to the east resulted in an intersection of 1.47 g/t Au over 22.5 meters (source: 2004/05 Assessment Report on The Staghorn Property for Candente Corp., December 2005). 

The recently completed ground geophysics survey has defined the altered gold bearing porphyry as a magnetic low which can be traced over 1000 meters of strike length. Analytical results, from the soil geochemistry survey, outlines a strong gold and arsenic anomaly, coincident with and down slope from the magnetic low. A 1500 meter drill program is recommended to follow up on the South Woods Lake Gold Zone and to evaluate its bulk tonnage gold potential.

The Staghorn property consists of 324 claim units covering a 24 kilometer strike length of a volcanic/sedimentary belt associated with the regionally significant and gold bearing Cape Ray Fault system. Regional prospecting carried out this past summer also identified a number of other targets in the belt. Of particular interest was a high grade float sample, with associated pyrite and arsenopyrite that assayed 213.8 g/t Au. This result was previously announced by the Corporation in a press release dated July 29, 2009. Future exploration along this regional gold trend will include additional prospecting, line cutting, ground magnetics and soil geochemistry to better define and prioritize these targets.
