Drilling to Commence at the Excelsior Gold Project in Nevada

Abbotsford, British Columbia (ots/PRNewswire) -

Nubian Resources Ltd ("Nubian") reports that drilling will
commence at the Excelsior gold project in Nevada next week.
Nubian
holds a 100% lease of the property and has an option agreement to
allow Global Geoscience Ltd ("Global") to earn a 70% interest in the
Excelsior project by spending $3 million on exploration over four
years and by making cash payments totalling USD $100,000.

Global plans to drill about 2000m of RC (Reverse Circulation) to
follow-up a number of significant drill intersections and to test
several new targets it has identified since acquiring the project
that have not been previously drill tested.

Several holes are planned at the Buster zone where drilling by
previous explorers has yielded a number of very significant
intersections at shallow depths. The mineralisation at Buster is open
along strike and at depth. Significant intersections include:

- EX02: 33m at 2.7g/t Au from 70m including 18m at 4.7g/t Au
- EX13: 15m at 2.5g/t Au from 0m
- EX18: 6m at 5.4g/t Au from 43m
- EX30: 47m at 1.5g/t Au from 71m including 7.6m at 3.9g/t Au,
8g/t Ag

The Excelsior project covers a zone of gold mineralisation more
than 3km long and 200-400m wide, hosted within strongly altered
calcareous sediments and limestone.

Since entering into an agreement with Nubian on the Excelsior
project in March 2011, Global has completed extensive surface work
including a three square kilometre Induced Polarisation (IP)
geophysical survey, geological mapping, re-logging drill chips and
the collection of more than 800 geochemical samples. This work has
led to the identification of three other targets - none of which have
been drilled previously.

President and CEO of Nubian, Graham Chisholm comments: "Work
completed by Global to date at Excelsior indicates the presence of a
large and extensive mineralised system, and only a relatively small
area - the Buster zone - has been tested by drilling. Given the very
encouraging drill results at the Buster zone to date, we are pleased
to announce that targets to be drill tested have been identified and
drilling will commence shortly."
