Rockland Minerals Corp. (TSX VENTURE:RL) (the "Company") has completed its 1,558
meter diamond drilling program in a total of 16 holes, strategically spread
across the Blue Lake Cu-Ni-Pt-Pd Property located in the Labrador Trough,
Quebec. This drilling was to explore and verify the Blue Lake massive sulfides,
and results were very encouraging. Initial core logging showed massive and
disseminated sulfides, with abundant visible chalcopyrite, at or near the base
of a sheet-like ultramafic unit, the lower sill. This was confirmatory drilling,
and a number of the holes were drilled outside previously-outlined massive
sulfide Cu-Ni-Pt-Pd bodies. The massive sulfide is nickeliferous pyrrhotite
(FeS) containing chalcopyrite (CuFeS2) and pentlandite (NiFeS). Sulfide
accumulations occur in either of two places -- at the base of the ultramafic
intrusive sill, or in the lower third of the ultramafic sill. Widespread
disseminated mineralization, characterized by the presence of chalcopyrite in
the core, was seen within the ultramafic unit. Photos of some of this drill core
have been posted to the Company website at
http://www.rocklandminerals.ca/Gallery.php. 


Drill core is en-route from Blue Lake drilling to IOS Services Geoscientifiques
in Chicoutimi (Saguenay), Quebec to be carefully saw-cut and sampled. High
platinum and palladium values are expected occasionally in these drill cores.
Rockland and the contractor are following a very strict protocol of 15% quartz
blanks in the sample stream. Samples will be crushed and pulverized in-house at
the IOS Services Geoscientifiques facility. George F. Sanders, P.Geo, a director
