Curlew Lake Resources Inc. (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:CWQ)(PINK SHEETS:CWLXF)
announces preparations are underway to drill another well on Company lands in
the Fairydell-Bon Accord area of Alberta. Company petroleum and natural gas
leases in this area present multiple horizon opportunities for oil and/or gas
development, following encountering gas in the Ellerslie and Upper Manville at
Curlew-Lake FBA 2-16-57-24. Seismic and geological mapping has yielded one
seismic shot point location in LSD 9 of Section 14 in Twp. 57, Rge 24 W4M and
the site has been surveyed and is being licenses as a New Pool Wildcat oil
and/or gas well. There are a number of operators with pipelines in the area and
Fairydell Bon Accord infrastructure will keep production and delivery cost
modest. The area has seen a number of impressive discoveries in the Ellerslie
and/or Basel Quart formations to the south and east of the proposed well. It is
expected that drilling will commence in early January, 2011.


Proposed 3-D geophysical surveys, together with sonic logs from the 2-16
exploration hole, may greatly enhance the value of Curlew lake's significant
land package in this area. Confirmation of the Leduc reef at 2-16 provides our
exploration team with the data to move updip in the geological column in pursuit
of Leduc and Nisku oil and other potentially productive formations.


Additional information on Fairydell and many other Company projects can be found
on the corporate website. 


On behalf of the Board of Directors
