Metals Creek Resources Intersects 1.43% Cu, 6.78 g/t Ag Over 66.30 Meters at Its Tillex Copper Project

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - May 31, 2011) - Metals Creek Resources Corp. (the "Corporation") (TSX VENTURE:MEK) is pleased to announce assay results from its recently completed 3 hole, 588 meter diamond drill program on its 85 per cent owned Tillex Copper Project, located in Currie Township, 65 km east of Timmins, Ontario.

Results from this program includes a 66.30m (meter) intercept of 1.43% Cu (copper) and 6.78 g/t (grams per tonne) Ag (silver) including a higher grade intercept of 2.952% Cu and 14.995 g/t Ag over 14.80m from hole TX11-01. Hole TX11-02 returned an intercept of 43.20m of 1.27% Cu and 5.454 g/t Ag and hole TX11-03 returned an intercept of 10.14m of 1.38% Cu that encountered significant quartz feldspar porphyry dike material resulting in a significantly smaller intercept. Holes 1 and 2 both collared in mineralization. All 3 holes were designed to infill areas of limited drilling within the historic Tillex Copper Deposit, which was originally discovered in 1973 by Westmin Resources Ltd as well as provide a better understanding of the geology within the central portion of the deposit. Mineralization consists of disseminated and stringer chalcopyrite within a mixed sequence of andesite, graphitic argillite, dacitic tuff and feldspar porphyry.

The Tillex Copper Deposit continues to demonstrate near surface potential with the majority of the mineralization within 150m of surface. Xstrata's Kidd Creek base metal mill is located 45 kilometers by road from the deposit.

Results from this latest round of drilling are as follows:

(Note: True thicknesses are approximately 65-75% of down hole intercepts)

Michael MacIsaac, P.Geo and VP Exploration for the Corporation and a qualified person as defined in National Instrument 43-101, is responsible for this release, and supervised the preparation of the information forming the basis for this release.

All split core samples were sent to Accurassay, an accredited laboratory in Thunder Bay, Ontario. The base metals were analyzed utilizing acid digestion with an atomic absorption finish with silver analysis determined using a 4 acid digestion method. As part of the Corporations QAQC protocol, approximately 10% of the samples submitted for assay were also sent for check assays. Standards and blanks were inserted randomly into the sample shipments as part of the sampling protocol.
