Marketwired Canada
Kirrin Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:KYM) today reported its financial results and
operational highlights for the third quarter of 2011. Exploration activity
peaked during the quarter with encouraging progress made at the Alexis River and
Key Lake SW uranium projects and the Grevet REE project. Summary financial data
is set out below.
Commenting on the period, Kirrin President and CEO, Derek Moran, said: "Kirrin
continued to advance its exploration portfolio during Q3. We are particularly
pleased with the interpretation of the results from radium analyses at Alexis
River. Our projects are reaching a critical stage in their evaluation and we are
already planning what may be decisive programs in 2012. The capital markets are
increasingly challenging though and they will determine what level of programs
can actually be achieved."
Kirrin is in the exploration and development stage of its operations and
recorded a net loss for the quarter of $126,000 (Q3 2010: net loss $90,000).
Cash and equivalents at the quarter end amounted to $309,000 (Q3 2010: $35,000).
Working capital deficit was $22,000 (Q3 2010 deficit: $154,000). General and
administrative costs increased by 53% or $46,000 in the third quarter, and 35%
or $114,383 during the comparative first three quarters, largely as a result of
an expansion in the investor relations program, increased travel costs
reflecting a more active exploration program and due diligence on prospective
projects, and higher professional fees due to the implementation of IFRS.

Operational Highlights
-- Data from the 1,531 line-km. helicopter-borne survey flown in February
2011 at Key Lake Southwest ('Key Lake SW') on the southeastern edge of
the Athabasca Basin and from the 1,076 line-km. airborne survey flown in
2010 was integrated and interpreted. A GIS compilation of exploration
data from publicly available sources for Key Lake SW and the interpreted
geophysical data was also completed.
-- Radium analyses at the Alexis River uranium property located in
southeastern Labrador were completed. Interpretation of the analyses
points to two narrow radium anomalies, correlating well with uranium
values, as drill targets within the confines of Anomaly Lake on the
property.
-- In September 2011, the Company announced that it has staked an
additional 4,185 hectare adjacent to its Key Lake SW uranium property
located on the southeastern margin of the Athabasca basin in
Saskatchewan.
-- Kirrin reached an agreement with Ucore Rare Metals Inc. ('Ucore') on
revised terms for its acquisition of an interest in the Bottom Brook
rare earth element property in Western Newfoundland. Kirrin may earn a
50% interest in the Bottom Brook property by spending $2,045,000,
revised from $2,600,000, on exploration by December 31, 2014, revised
from 2012, and making share payments to Ucore of 300,000 Kirrin shares.
