Canadian Shield Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE: CSP) ("Canadian Shield" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the completion of all necessary surface rights agreements with local communities surrounding the Colpayoc Au-Cu Porphyry Property in the Department of Cajamarca, northern Peru. The Colpayoc Property is located 15 kilometres south of Yanacocha, the largest gold mine in the western hemisphere In addition, the Company has carried out drill target definition work including surface mapping, sampling and 67 line-kilometres of ground magnetics.

The mineralized system comprises mid-Tertiary age intrusive hosted gold-rich porphyry and skarn with peripheral, structurally controlled breccia-vein style mineralization. Mineralization is also associated with late stage diatreme or volcanic vent breccias. The intrusive-related system is hosted in folded Cretaceous limestones, with interbedded calc-arenites and siltstone. Skarnification, marblization and de-calcification are pervasive in an area of approximately 3.5 x 3.5 kilometres.

Known mineralization and newly generated targets, occur at conspicuous intersections of northwest and northeast trending structures, which have been defined by surface mapping and interpretation of the ground magnetics.

New, untested drill targets generated by the recent work include:

1) Shallowly-covered, magnetite-rich porphyry mineralization indicated by strong magnetic highs underlying hornfelsed, pyritic limestone and accompanied by highly anomalous zinc and lead in soils.

2) High-level silver-rich polymetallic mineralization associated with late stage explosive breccia. This type of breccia is also seen cross-cutting porphyry style mineralization and contains rounded mineralized clasts. Similar breccias occur at Newmont and Buenaventura's Minas Conga Gold-Copper Porphyry Deposit 40 km to the NE (641 million tonnes @ 0.8 g/t gold, 0.3% copper or approximately 30 million ounces gold equivalent).

3) High grade structurally-controlled gold-silver mineralization localized along a regional synclinal axis peripheral to the porphyry mineralization. Surface samples run up to 10 g/t gold with 912 g/t silver. No systematic trenching or drilling has been yet completed on this target area.

Background:

The Colpayoc Au-Cu porphyry property is located about 30 road kilometres west of the city of Cajamarca, the capital of the Department of Cajamarca. The property lies within Peru's most prolific mineral district, reportedly containing over 84 million ounces of gold, 32 billion pounds copper, and 236 million pounds of molybdenum in ten high sulfidation epithermal and porphyry deposits. The district includes the world-class Yanacocha Mine with 50 million ounces gold from production and remaining mineable reserves. Table 1 summarizes tonnes and grade of some major deposits in the district.

Newcrest Mining, Balaclava Resources and Granges Resources performed significant work on the property during the mid-to-late nineties including surface mapping, sampling, magnetometry, trenching and a total of 11 drill holes. Trenching and drilling intersected porphyry style, quartz-magnetic-pyrite-chalcopyrite stockwork mineralization and sub-vertical sheeted veins hosted in a two-phase intrusive sequence consisting of hornblende-feldspar porphyry and quartz-biotite-feldspar porphyry. The best gold grades correspond to magnetite-bearing stockwork, which produces a strong magnetic response clearly delineated in Newcrest's magnetic survey. Work was concluded and the property returned to the underlying owners even though additional magnetic anomalies remained untested.

Tables 2 and 3 below summarize results of previous drilling and trenching.
