Duncan Park Reports New Gold Mineralization System at Red Lake

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Nov. 14, 2011) - Duncan Park Holdings Corporation (TSX VENTURE:DPH) is pleased to announce the completion of the summer drilling program on the contiguous Dome and McManus claim groups that are subject to the earn-in agreements with Sphere Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:SPH.H) in the prolific Red Lake gold camp in northwestern Ontario.

The expanded program consisted of 15 angled diamond drill holes for a total of 4895 meters. A total of 3144 samples were submitted to Accurassay Laboratories of Thunder Bay, Ontario for high precision gold assay and ICP geochemical analyses. Results have been received for all of the gold analyses and approximately 50% of the geochemical results.

The Company is encouraged by the results received to date because the exploration on the McManus patented mining claims has identified the occurrence of quartz veining, sulphide minerals and anomalous gold values within a structural zone, which, in combination, is indicative of a mineralizing system. Although the Company and its technical team have not yet synthesized and interpreted all of the data and the dimensions of the zone have yet to be determined, the zone of mineralization appears to extend more than 300 metres in width and 1 kilometer in length running from the east on the McManus patented mining claims to the west into the lake under the McManus licenses of occupation.

A winter drilling program on both properties is currently in the planning stages. In general, subject to the availability of flow-through funding, it is expected to include continued drilling of the easterly land based claims on the McManus property, and, when ice conditions on Red Lake permit, a comprehensive program on the westerly lake based claims of both properties, particularly targeting the area where the north-west trending Chukuni River Deformation Zone is projected to intersect the north-east trending Madsen-Goldcorp (NE) Trend Deformation Zone.

The following information with respect to the gold assays is provided. The geochemical analysis data is incomplete and will require considerable analysis and interpretation prior to any comment.

McManus Patents: The McManus drilling was concentrated on a west northwesterly trending structural zone containing variable quartz veining, iron carbonate alteration with locally abundant pyrite and accessory pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite and arsenopyrite. This zone is within and sub-parallel to the Chukuni River Deformation Zone defined by the Ontario Geological Survey in the early 1980's. The McManus structural zone includes several chargeability anomalies interpreted to be due to the sulfide content and one previously known gold showing. Ten angled core holes explored the zone with 2200 samples taken of any observed sulphides, carbonate and/or quartz vein mineralization, and 273 quality control and assurance (QA/QC) samples were submitted for analysis. All of the gold analyses have been received. Of the results, 56 samples had gold quantities above an arbitrary 0.1 g/t gold with a maximum value of 12.99 g/t gold over a 0.4 m sample interval.

Dome land Claims: Drilling on the southeastern (land) part of the Dome Claim group focused on a number of geophysical anomalies identified by last winter's geophysics program. The mining claims include two previously known gold showings. Five angled core holes tested five of the geophysical anomalies and included one of the known gold showings. A total of 587 samples were taken of any observed sulphides, carbonate and/or quartz vein mineralization, and 84 QA/QC samples were submitted for analysis. Of the results, 3 samples had gold quantities above an arbitrary 0.1 g/t gold with a maximum value of 0.232 g/t gold over a 1.0m sample interval.

The drill program followed accepted mineral industry practices. All drill core was delivered to the secure core handling facility in Red Lake, where it was geologically logged, photographed, and geologically marked for sampling by the Qualified Person ("QP"). Samples were then cut in half by diamond-bladed core saw, bagged, tagged and shipped to Thunder Bay for fire assay-atomic absorption analysis, and by ICP geochemical analysis. The drill core and samples were kept secure by the drill contractor, the company field crews, the bonded carrier and analytical facility following established chain-of-custody protocols. Quality control checks were completed by the blind and random insertion of two certified reference standards and a blank standard into the sample stream by the on-site QP. In addition, the analytical laboratory maintains their own internal QA/QC program. The remaining half core is being stored on the property, and sample material secured in Thunder Bay.

Gordon Yule, P.Geo., the project's consulting geologist and a QP within the meaning of National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101"), has reviewed and approved the contents of this news release. Mr. Yule has verified the data disclosed including all sampling, analytical and test data provided in this press release and the project.

David R. Shaddrick, P.Geo., a QP within the meaning of NI 43-101 and a Director of Duncan Park visited the project in May and August, 2011and reviewed the work in progress with Mr. Yule. Mr. Shaddrick has reviewed and approved the contents of this news release.
