TORONTO, ONTARIO ("Stroud") today announced results from the
latest three drill holes in its current drill program at the Santo
Domingo project in Central Mexico that has extended the wide
mineralized zone on the Rayas structure to the northwest.
George Coburn, President and CEO, commented, "These holes
continue to demonstrate a wide mineralized system that is open
along strike and to depth. We are very encouraged by the character
of the mineralization that exhibits good continuity and high
grades.
DDH-23 intersected a wide mineralized zone that assayed 83.26
g/t silver and 0.28 g/t gold over 76.5 metres, for a silver
equivalent(1) of 97.82 g/t, including 7.6 metres of 186.97 g/t
silver and 0.58 g/t gold for a silver equivalent(1) of 217.13. This
hole was drilled at -45 degrees.
DDH-24 was drilled on the same section as DDH-23 and was (almost
continually mineralized from 35.65 metres to 139.35 metres, a
length of over 100 metres, including 9.15 metres of 90.24 g/t
silver and 0.13 g/t gold for a silver equivalent(1) of 97.0
g/t.
DDH-25 was also drilled on the same section as DDH-23 and DDH-24
and intersected 17.45 metres of 126.62 g/t silver and 0.52 g/t
gold, for a silver equivalent(1) 153.66 g/t, including 9.8 metres
of 155.94 g/t silver and 0.64 g/t gold for a silver equivalent(1)
of 189.22 g/t.

(1) The silver to gold ratio used for the Silver equivalent calculations
is 52:1(Silver USD17.13oz, goldUSD884.70/oz.)
(2) The widths above are not true widths. True widths to be determined.
These holes were drilled on 5595 N on the Rayas structure and
intersected wider than expected zones of silver and gold
mineralization. The lead and zinc values are lower as the drilling
proceeds northward along the strike of the deposit. This is
believed by the Company to be the result of mineral zoning. The
deposit continues to show good continuity along strike and down
dip.

The drill core sampling program includes onsite supervision of
sampling by Dr. Derek McBride, 10% blanks and certified standard
reference samples. The drill core is sawed in half, with one half
sent out for assay and the other half stored in Stroud's secure
facility. The samples are subjected to full sample preparation
followed by a 30 g fire assay with a gravimetric finish. George
Coburn, P.Geo., President and CEO of Stroud Resources Ltd., is the
