FMM Full Metal Minerals Ltd

Full Metal Minerals Ltd. (TSX VENTURE: FMM) ("Full Metal") is pleased to announce that the Company has staked 429 State mining claims totaling 23,747 hectares within the Circle placer mining district, Alaska.

Located approximately 130 km northeast of Fairbanks, the Circle mining district has road access, and is one of the largest and richest placer gold producing regions in the Tintina gold belt. Unlike similar placer gold camps in the Livengood, Fairbanks, and Dawson mining districts, no significant lode source has been identified in this underexplored region. Over 1,086,000 ounces of placer gold production have been reported in the area (Alaska department of Geological and Geophysical Surveys, 2008).

The Circle area is underlain by multiple host rock types that may be favorable to gold mineralization and is equivalent to bedrock in the Clear Creek-Dublin Gulch-Keno Hill area of the Yukon. The bedrock consists primarily of northwest oriented stacked thrust sheets of Paleozoic mafic-felsic schists and quartzites with local zones of hornfels associated with Cretaceous and Tertiary aged granitic intrusives and Tertiary mafic dikes. Structurally, the area has been strongly influenced by the Tintina Fault, which forms the northern boundary of the district. Several areas of veining and/or alteration with gold and/or sulfide showings are known throughout the district, however minimal modern exploration has been performed for lode gold. Mineralization appears to occur in all rock types, but is mostly strongly associated with mafic schists and Cretaceous aged intrusive units. It has been suggested that most of the gold in the district is related to the granitic intrusive units.

Full Metal is initiating an extensive reconnaissance mapping and soil gridding program on its four large claim groupings in the Circle district, and will conduct work throughout the summer field season. The Company will be utilizing a similar methodology its team used for Underworld Resources, which lead the successful discovery of gold mineralization in the White Gold District, Yukon.

Full Metal Minerals is a generative exploration company with multiple precious and base metal projects in Alaska. Drilling will commence shortly on the Company's Pyramid Cu-Au-Mo porphyry project, funded by Antofagasta Minerals.
