ICN Icn Resources Ltd.

ICN Resources Ltd. ("ICN" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:ICN), is pleased to
announce that it has signed a binding letter agreement (the "Letter Agreement")
with an arm's length party (the "Vendor") dated effective December 14, 2011 for
a six year option (the "Option") to acquire a 100% undivided interest in 35
unpatented mining claims, covering approximately 2.9 km2 (the "Property"). The
Property lies within an historic silver district located in central Colorado
where high grade silver production came from numerous mines during the period
from 1878 until 1894. Total production prior to 1880 is not documented, but
total district production through 1894 was likely less than 10 million ounces of
silver, with minor amounts of gold. Production came from both shear-vein zones
as well as high grade (up to 700 opt Ag) breccia pipes hosted in Tertiary
rhyolitic rocks located within a volcanic center. Lower grade halos exist
surrounding the high grade pipes and vein zones according to historic reports in
the district.


Numerous companies explored the area from the 1970's until early 1991, when low
silver prices brought exploration in the district to a close. Detailed historic
data has not yet been acquired by the Company; however, some summary information
is available. Over 200 historic drill holes established non National Instrument
43-101 compliant resources that were apparently deemed uneconomic at that time.
As best as can be determined by the Company at present, all claims and other
lands in the district were abandoned in 1996. ICN will endeavor to acquire more
detailed historic data as well as evaluate additional land acquisition as it
pursues this new opportunity.


Carl Hering, President and CEO of ICN Resources, commented that, "ICN believes
this to be a great new opportunity in a historic silver camp that has been
ignored for some time. However, we have much work to complete, including
searching for past data to fully evaluate the significance of the districts
potential."


Pursuant to the terms of the Letter Agreement in order for the Company to
exercise the Option and to acquire a 100% undivided interest in the Property the
Company must make share and cash payments to the Vendor totaling 2,000,000
common shares (the "Common Shares") in the capital of ICN and $2,000,000 in cash
payable as follows:




a.  upon approval by the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSX-V") of the Letter
    (the "Approval Date") a payment of 150,000 common shares in the capital
    of ICN (the "Common Shares"); 
b.  on or before the six (6) month anniversary of the Approval Date the
    issuance of a further 100,000 Common Shares and a cash payment of
    $30,000; 
c.  on or before the one year anniversary of the Approval Date the issuance
    of a further 250,000 Common Shares and a further cash payment of
    $50,000; 
d.  on or before the two (2) year anniversary of the Approval Date a further
    250,000 Common Shares and a further cash payment of $100,000; 
e.  on or before the three (3) year anniversary of the Approval Date a
    further 250,000 Common Shares and a further cash payment of $120,000; 
f.  on or before the four (4) year anniversary of the Approval Date a
    further 500,000 Common Shares and a further cash payment of $200,000; 
g.  on or before the five (5) year anniversary of the Approval Date a
    further 500,000 Common Shares and a further cash payment of $250,000;
    and 
h.  on or before the six (6) year anniversary of the Approval Date a further
    cash payment of $1,250,000. 



In addition to the foregoing, under the Letter Agreement the Vendor is entitled
to a bonus in connection with ICN achieving certain project milestones tied to
(i) total National Instrument 43-101 M + I resources established, (ii) a
positive scoping or pre-Feasibility study and (iii) project permitting status.
If the foregoing facts are satisfied, ICN would then be required to pay the
Vendor an additional 1,000,000 Common Shares and an additional US$1,000,000 to
US$3,000,000 in cash depending on achieving various project milestones. Under
the terms of the Letter Agreement the Vendor is also entitled to a net smelter
returns royalty from the Property ranging from 1/2% to 2% depending on
underlying status of additional property the Company acquires, if any, within a
defined area of interest in the district. The Letter Agreement is subject to TSX
Venture Exchange approval.


In other developments, ICN announces that it has issued 750,000 units to Lode
Star Gold Inc. ("Lode Star") for an option payment on Lode Star's Goldfield
Bonanza Project, as per the TSX Venture Exchange approved Definitive Agreement
announced in March 2011 (see ICN News Release of March 29, 2011). Each unit
consists of one Common Share and one Common Share purchase warrant, with each
warrant entitling the holder to purchase one additional Common Share for a
period of two years at an exercise price of $0.26. The warrants issued are
subject to a statutory hold period expiring on April 15, 2012.


ICN also announces that it has entered into a Loan and Share Pledge Agreement
with another TSX-V company. The Company has borrowed C$500,000, for up to six
(6) months at a 10% interest rate, secured against its 400,000 Paramount Gold
and Silver shares. This loan allows ICN flexibility in moving forward and
planning, as it awaits the final drill results for its Phase II drill program at
the Goldfield Bonanza Project in Nevada (described above). Complete assay
results are expected in January. 


Tim Percival, CPG and a P.Geo., a Qualified Person as defined by National
Instrument 43-101 and Chief Geologist for the Company, has reviewed and approved
