Laurentian Goldfields Ltd. to Commence Ground Exploration Program on Goldpines Property, ON

May 21, 2010 — Vancouver, BC — Laurentian Goldfields Ltd. (LGF-TSX.V) (“Laurentian”, or the “Company”) announces that it has completed a 7,184 line kilometer (km) combined magnetometer and VLF/EM airborne geophysical survey over the Goldpines Property, located 34 km south of Red Lake, Ontario, and is now set to commence the ground-based follow up exploration.

Beginning this month, Laurentian will complete a program of detailed rock and soil geochemistry, mapping and prospecting over the entire Goldpines property, in order to locate the source of anomalous gold, arsenic and antimony geochemistry, detected during Laurentian’s first phase of prospecting in 2009 (see Laurentian news release dated March 4, 2010).

“We are seeing excellent correlation between our gold geochemistry and previously unrecognized geological structures that are apparent in the recently completed, high-resolution geophysical survey,” states Andrew Brown, President and CEO of Laurentian. “We are convinced that Goldpines is a spectacular opportunity for a new discovery a short distance away from one of Canada’s foremost mining camps.”

The target at Goldpines is a large, sediment-hosted gold deposit, similar to Goldcorp’s Éléonore property, in the James Bay region of Quebec.

About Goldpines Property
The Goldpines Property hosts a 200 km2 gold, arsenic and antimony geochemical anomaly defined and staked by Laurentian along the contact of the Uchi and English River Geological Subprovinces. The Goldpines Property is currently divided into two separate and distinct projects: a) the Goldpines North Joint Venture, with Kinross Gold Corporation (“Kinross”) (see Laurentian news release dated March 31, 2009) and; b) Goldpines South, a project funded by and subject to the terms of the Superior Alliance, between Laurentian and AngloGold Ashanti Ltd (“AngloGold”) (see Laurentian news release dated April 29, 2009).

The Goldpines North Joint Venture comprises 108 claims, covering a total of 21,926 hectares and the Goldpines South project comprises 143 claims covering a total of 34,731 hectares. The objectives of the exploration programs for both projects are the same for 2010: to gather sufficient geological information to be able to define drill targets for Q1, 2011. Specific activities within the two projects, such as the airborne geophysical survey, benefit from shared logistics and will be undertaken for both projects concurrently. The dissemination of data and distribution of costs will remain separate and distinct, between the Goldpines North Joint Venture and the Goldpines South project.
