METALS CREEK RESOURCES CORP. ANNOUNCES 6.76 G/T GOLD OVER 1 METER AND 5.44 G/T GOLD OVER 1 METER AT PORPHYRY HILL IN TIMMINS, ONTARIO

 Toronto, January 11, 2010.  Metals Creek Resources Corp. (the “Corporation”, TSXV: “MEK”) is pleased to announce that the Corporation has received assay results for 4 holes from the recently completed drill program on the Ogden Property, Timmins Ontario which is apart of an Option Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Goldcorp Canada Ltd. and Goldcorp Inc. operating as the Porcupine Joint Venture. Eleven holes totaling 2687 meters were drilled targeting near surface mineralization on the Porphyry Hill and Naybob South zones and the down plunge extension of mineralization on both the Thomas Ogden and Naybob South Zones with assays only received for 4 of the 11 holes thus far. 
Highlights from the initial four drill holes targeted on the Porphyry Hill mineralization include 6.76 g/t gold over 1 meter  in drill hole PH09-003, and 5.44 g/t gold over 1 meter in drill hole PH09-004.  Hole PH09-004 represents the deepest intercept to date within the Porphyry Hill area at approximately 90 meters vertically below surface. Alteration has also increased with depth exhibiting moderate to strong albitization and carbonatization with associated pyrite mineralization in hole PH09-004.  The mineralized porphyry remains open in all directions and was intersected in all four holes. It is generally highly anomalous in gold with values commonly ranging from 100-300 parts per billion (ppb). Hole PH09-001 returned an intercept of 1.0 g/t gold over 1 meter and hole PH09-002 returned an intercept of 1.692 g/t gold over 1 meter. Eight additional porphyry targets are present on the property in close proximity to previously defined mineralization.
Mr. Alexander Stares, President and CEO, states “ Knowing that we have mineralized porphyry on the property similar to that of  Lake Shore Gold’s mineralized porphyry at the Rusk Zone, a part of the West Timmins Gold Play demonstrates the gold potential of the Ogden Property.  Given the shallow nature of these drill intercepts and the co-incident increase in alteration and mineralization at depth demonstrates the potential of this vastly under-explored porphyry target especially given that much of the significant drill intercepts attained within the West Timmins Play is significantly deeper than those drilled on the Ogden property.”
Assays are still pending for 5 holes drilled at the Naybob South zone and 2 holes drilled at the Thomas Ogden zone, and will be released as they are received and compiled.

All split core samples were sent to Accurassay, an accredited laboratory in Thunder Bay, Ontario.  The precious metals were analyzed utilizing a standard fire assay with an atomic absorption finish.  As part of the Corporations QAQC protocol, approximately 10% of the samples submitted for assay were also sent for check assays to Actlabs located in Thunder Bay, Ontario. , Standards and blanks were inserted randomly into the sample shipments as part of the sampling protocol.   Samples with assay results above 1.0 g/t gold are re-analyzed using a gravimetric finish and samples with assay results above 5 g/t gold or samples showing visible gold are analyzed using the pulp metallic method.
