RCT Rochester Resources Ltd

Rochester Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:RCT)(FRANKFURT:R5I) is pleased that the
previously announced diamond drilling program at its Mina Real property
continues to return positive results.


An additional seven diamond drill holes have been completed on the Florida NW Vein. 

Significant intersections are as follows:

These are downhole intersections and true widths have yet to be determined.

The Florida NW Vein is located approximately 1,000 metres to the north of the
Tajos Cuates and trends north-northwest, roughly parallel to the structure which
hosts the Tajos Cuates Vein.


The Mina Real Project is underlain by a complex of Tertiary-age felsic volcanic
and tuffs cut by intrusions of similar composition. Alteration varies from
narrow zones adjacent to mineralized veins, to broad zones of moderate to
intense clay alteration. The broad zones of clay alteration have drill
intersections of at least 50 metres. 


The mineralized veins trend northwest to north-northwest, with local
northeast-southwest trending offsets. These offset structure/veins locally carry
gold and silver values. The northwest trending veins are found in shear zones,
which vary in width from 2 or 3 metres to broad zones of shearing that represent
regional shear zones.


The veins vary in width from a few centimetres to maximum widths of
approximately 8 metres, and are generally composed of quartz. Individual veins
may be single quartz veins or multistage quartz veins, often brecciated and/or
sheared. The contact with the wallrock typically is intensely sheared and
broken.


"The diamond drilling program continues to successfully expand the area of
mineralized material at the Florida NW Vein," states Eduardo Luna, President and
CEO. "Hole FLNW11-10 intersected the mineralized vein approximately 25 metres
below the underground development on the Florida NW Vein. Hole FLNW10-10
intersected the same vein structure, over encouraging widths, along strike
approximately 150 metres to the southwest. We are pleased with the results of
Hole FLNW09-10, particularly the gold grade, which intersected the vein
structure approximately 150 metres along strike to the northwest, and 100 metres
downdip, from the underground development on the Florida NW Vein. Additional
drilling will further define this zone."


The Florida NW Vein is one of at least six northwest to north-northwest trending
vein systems identified on the Mina Real project. 


Additional drill results are being compiled and will be released as they become
available.
