ASX RELEASE 4 OCTOBER 2011

One Mile Drilling Update Mining Lease No 6750

Superior Resources Limited (ASX Code: SPQ) has now received all assay data from the reverse circulation (RC) drilling (ASX Release - 5 September 2011) completed on its 100% owned One Mile mining lease about 210km west-northwest of Townsville and near Greenvale in northeast Queensland (Figure 1).

The results indicate that the semi-massive to massive sulphide body intersected by the drilling contains low-grade but encouraging copper and gold values with the best intersection being 8m @ 0.32% copper and 0.37 g/t gold between 132 and 140m in hole SPOM011. Diamond drilling, following on from the RC drilling, is continuing on the property.

The RC drilling targeted a prominent magnetic anomaly and outcropping gossans as well as additional targets identified by the exploration program completed to date.

All RC drillhole collars have now been picked up by DGPS. Locations are shown in Table 1 and are plotted in Figure 2.

As previously reported the drilling indicates the presence of a substantial sulphide body most probably of the volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) type. It occurs as a steeply west-dipping body and apparently has a moderate to steep southerly plunge. The sulphide body is open at depth and to the south.

Results from the drilling using a 0.1% copper cutoff are included in Table 2. The intersections are all from within the primary zone and do not include any secondary enrichment.

The high sulphur analyses in Table 2 reflect the presence of substantial pyrite (as calculated and shown in Table 2) with the copper and gold values. High sulphur is typical of VMS deposits.

The results indicate the presence of low-grade copper, zinc and gold within the pyrite body with a gold to copper ratio of about 1 to 1 in the higher-grade sulphide intersections.

Whilst the assay results are not economic they are sufficiently encouraging to warrant the additional deeper diamond drilling which is now in progress to determine whether the sulphide body continues and thickens at depth and to determine the copper, zinc and gold grades at depth.

A long section through the mineralized area is shown in Figure 3. This section shows the position of the main sulphide intersections from the RC drilling program and the target areas for the proposed drillholes in the deeper diamond drilling program currently in progress. The section also indicates that the potential target zone for semi-massive and massive sulphides is open at depth and to the south.
