Laurion Commences Drill Program on High Priority Targets on the Asha and Tehya Zones at the Sturgeon River Property, Beardmore,

Laurion Mineral Exploration Inc. (TSX VENTURE:LME)(OTCQX:LMEFF) ("Laurion") is
pleased to announce the commencement of an eight hole drill program on its
Sturgeon River Property, Beardmore, Ontario. Six drill holes are planned to
intersect strong targets recently defined in an induced polarization ("IP")
survey carried out by Quantec Geoscience on the Asha Zone in March 2011. Two
drill holes will examine the extent of the previously drilled Tehya zone at
depth and along the 800 meter strike length between LME10-07 and LME11-17.


Asha Zone

Results from the IP survey on the Asha Zone located south of the Sturgeon River
Mine area, indicated multiple strong chargeability anomalies, assumed to be
associated with sulphides. A total of 92 samples were collected in September
2010 in a comprehensive prospecting program conducted over the Asha Zone, which
resulted in gold values as high as 9.87 g/t gold and 136 g/t silver. Higher
assay values were clustered along an east-northeast trend over an 1,800 metre
strike length. The Asha Zone is adjacent to an 800 metre VLF EM anomaly that has
no outcropping areas. 


Highlights from the Asha Zone September 2010 sampling program included:



9.87 g/t gold with 136 g/t silver                                           
8.04 g/t gold with 59 g/t silver                                            
3.71 g/t gold with 9 g/t silver                                             
2.49 g/t gold                                                               
2.04 g/t gold                                                               
1.51% zinc                                                                  
10 additional samples grading between 0.5 g/t and 2 g/t gold                



Tehya Zone 

Two of the drill holes from this program, which will examine the extent of the
Tehya zone at depth and one drill hole is to be located on the 800 metre strike
between drill hole LME10-07 and drill hole LME11-017. In the event the Tehya
mineralization is identified to have continuity in this round of drilling, the
opportunity may exist to develop of a resource in this zone. The Tehya base
metal zone appears to be one of several anomalous zinc/copper areas, which in
combination with high grade gold and silver occurrences, is indicative of the
multi-faceted potential of the Sturgeon River Property.


The Tehya base metal zone was drilled in the summer of 2010 and reported 0.45
g/t Au, 27.80 g/t Ag, 0.94% Cu and 3.91% Zn over 4.08 metres in drill hole
LME10-07 within two parallel lenses of massive to semi-massive sulphides within
sheared and brecciated volcanics. Drill hole LME11-017 was drilled before the
spring break-up approximately 800 metres along strike of the "Tehya Extension"
LME10-07 hole. The Tehya zone was successfully intersected approximately 30
metres vertically below surface and the assays from LME11-017 reported 0.10 g/t
Au, 10.1 g/t Ag, 0.11% Cu and 2.85% Zn over 5.85 metres, including 0.05 g/t Au,
14.9 g/t Ag, 0.21% Cu and 9.79% Zn over 1.30 metres.
