| Calgary, Canada: Kirrin Resources Inc. today reported its financial results and operational highlights for the third quarter of 2010. The quarter was marked by exciting exploration results and progress at the Key Lake SW uranium project and the Grevet REE project. Summary financial data is set out below. Commenting on the period, Kirrin President and CEO Derek Moran said: "2010 is proving to be a good year for Kirrin. Progress during the second quarter has been followed by solid exploration results across our uranium and rare earth elements portfolio in the third quarter". Kirrin is in the exploration and development stage of its operations and recorded a net loss for the quarter of $97,000 (Q3 2009: net loss $132,000). Cash and equivalents at the quarter end amounted to $35,000 (Q3 2009: $41,000). Working capital deficit was $154,000 (Q3 2009 deficit: $210,000). General and administrative costs remained tightly controlled, cash costs of $88,000 for the quarter comparing to $86,000 in 2009.
Note 1: All figures in Canadian dollars except for shares outstanding. Operational Highlights In July, Kirrin completed a 1,076 line-kilometre magnetic-electromagnetic (EM) airborne survey of the Key Lake SW uranium property, near the southeastern margin of the Athabasca Basin in northern Saskatchewan, and announced the results of its interpretation and evaluation in September. This identified 7 first priority, 5 second priority and 7 third priority targets that warrant follow-up assessment. In addition, the Company noted that its review of the technical disclosures regarding the Phoenix Discovery on Wheeler River, 60 km north-east of Key Lake SW, revealed many geological similarities between Phoenix and Key Lake SW. In September, the Company announced geochemical assay results from the first round of rock channel, chip and grab sampling at its Grevet REE property in northwestern Quebec. Preliminary results show 14.22% total rare earth oxides (TREO) in a grab sample from a narrow carbonatite dyke and 1.61% lower rare earth oxides (LREO) across 2.2m from a wider carbonatite dyke. The results confirmed the potential of the Grevet REE property to host REE-bearing carbonatite deposits with LREO grades of definite interest. Reg A. Olson, Ph.D., P.
