LKY Lucky Minerals Inc

Lucky Strike Resources Ltd. ("Lucky Strike" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE: LKY) announces that it has signed Definitive Agreements with five private Mongolian companies (the "Vendors") to acquire 80 percent interest in six mining exploration licenses and coal properties (the "CN Coal Properties"), located within a part of the Choir-Nyalgia coal basin approximately 175 kilometres ("km") southwest of Mongolia's capital city of Ulaanbaatar. The acquisitions are subject to, among other things, completion of legal and technical due diligence and acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange.

The CN Coal Properties are contiguous, comprise an aggregate area of 13,096 hectares (131 sq. km) and are located approximately 170 km from the Trans-Mongolian Railway. Mongolia is estimated to have potential coal resources of approximately 162.3 billion tonnes and 20.3 billion tonnes of coal resources in the comprehensive Choir-Nyalgia coal basin; and, exported 18.2 million tonnes of coal in 2010 in accordance to the Mongolian Ministry of Mineral Resources and Energy.

Financial Terms

In accordance with the terms of the Definitive Agreements, Lucky Strike is required to make total cash payments to the Vendors of US $5.8 million, subject to adjustment, by March 31, 2012, to acquire 80% interest in the CN Coal Properties, and to commit an aggregate of US $2.5 million in exploration expenditures. Aggregate non-refundable deposits of US $100,000 were paid to certain of the Vendors on the execution of the Definitive Agreements. The acquisitions are subject to, among other things, completion of legal and technical due diligence and acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"). Upon acceptance of the acquisitions by the Exchange, Lucky Strike is required to make aggregate cash payments of US $400,000 to certain of the Vendors.

National Instrument 43-101

A National Instrument (NI) 43-101 technical report was prepared by Norwest Corporation, on behalf of Gulfside Minerals Ltd, entitled Onjuul Property, Tov Aimag, Mongolia (August 12, 2009). Utilizing data sourced from historical documents, the report addresses coal geology and historic exploration activity for three of the six CN Coal Properties. The NI 43-101 estimates the ranges of preliminary potential tonnages between 159 to 178 million tonnes of ASTM lignite thermal coal within the 2,156 hectares represented by the three mining exploration license areas under study. The potential thermal coal tonnage within and surrounding the CN Coal Properties including licensed and non-licensed areas in the vicinity is estimated to contain Mongolian P1 resources of 232 million tonnes, P2 resources of 1,017.9 million tonnes and P3 resources of 271.4 million tonnes for a total of 1.52 billion tonnes historical resource. A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current mineral resources, the issuer is not treating the historical estimate as current mineral resources and the historical estimate should not be relied upon.

"Mongolia has vast coal resources with significant potential at an early stage of development in the nation's mining industry. Lucky Strike's decision to acquire coal exploration licenses within the Choir-Nyalgia coal basin was based on favourable geological conditions, a summary table of coal inventory titled 'Mongolian Coal Basins and Deposits' list the CN coal field as containing Mongolian resources of 1.52 billion tonnes. With China's coal consumption of 3.2 billion tonnes in 2010 and growing, there is an expected 30 Giga Watt summer power deficit due to shortfall in thermal coal supplies," commented Cathy Fong, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

As part of its mineral resource determination, Lucky Strike is currently planning to conduct a due diligence drill program on the properties to proceed as soon as possible. Furthermore, as part of developing the properties, the Company intends to conduct a drilling program on the six properties to determine the extent of the mineral resource potential. Additional geological, engineering and feasibility studies are expected to be required to assess whether the CN Coal Properties have the economic potential to ship product to Ulaanbaatar, to be a fuel source for a power generating plant, for coal-to-diesel production, large scale environmental filtration media and/or gasification for chemical plants.

These Definitive Agreements are subject to Finder's fees, which will be paid in accordance with the TSX Venture Exchange policies. Lucky Strike continues to carryout due diligence on the coal transportation and NKAK exploration project in Mongolia. Furthermore, the Company has sought legal counsel and retained a Chinese collection agency to recover the refundable deposit for the Changyun project. In addition, Lucky Strike is concurrently continuing to investigate other potential property acquisitions.
