HDM Hedman Resources Limited (Tier2)

Olivut Resources Ltd. ("Olivut" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:OLV) announced
today that results have been received for samples submitted for analysis and
planning is underway for the 2009 season.


Highlights of the 2008 Program include the following: 

- 8 new kimberlite bodies discovered 

- 351.4 kgs of kimberlite core submitted for fusion 

- 15 separate bodies drilled 

- minor microdiamond recovery 

- additional high priority targets defined for future drilling 

- program completed on time and under budget 

- well financed to conduct ongoing exploration 

The 2008 field program included airborne geophysics, gravity and diamond
drilling. Twenty-three holes were drilled into 15 targets, 13 of which were
previously untested. The 2008 drill targets were selected based upon maximizing
favourable logistics and cost effectiveness. Many priority targets remain
untested and will be drilled in following programs.


Both diatreme and dyke bodies that appear to have volume potential were tested
and holes were drilled at different angles in several targets to assess the
probability of multiple kimberlite phases. A petrographic evaluation of core
material conducted by HDM Laboratories in Loveland, Colorado ("HDM") indicates
that the kimberlite bodies drilled are not the source of the extremely positive
indicator mineral populations recovered from previous regional sampling programs
in the district. Management is encouraged by the confirmation of additional
kimberlites in this relatively new province identified by the Company in its
first season (2007), and looks forward to future testing of the many undrilled
priority targets in the area. Material totaling 351.4 kg representing
approximately 208 metres of core, from 16 holes in 10 targets, was analyzed by
Saskatchewan Research Council ("SRC") for microdiamonds. Two microdiamonds were
recovered from two separate bodies in close proximity that combined exceed 5 ha.
Further drilling is warranted to ascertain if more favourable phases may be
present in these bodies as well as other larger targets.


A 2009 drill program is being planned to continue evaluation of this kimberlite
province. Interpretation of the regional airborne and helimag surveys, previous
heavy mineral sampling programs, and drilling results is ongoing to help
establish a comprehensive understanding of the region encompassed by this large
project area, for which only limited geological data are available.
