Rome's Prospector II Reverse Circulation Drill Will Accelerate Evaluation of Rome's Extensive Properties

Rome Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:RMR) (FRANKFURT:33R) is pleased to announce
that their Prospector II Reverse Circulation Drill is operational on the Don
Luis Silver-Gold-Tungsten Property in Sonora, Mexico. This state-of-the-art
drill was manufactured by Multi-Power Products Ltd. of Kelowna, B.C., Canada
(www.multipowerproducts.com) and exported to Mexico. Pictures of the current
operation of our drill are in Figures A1 and A2 of the Appendix. This reverse
circulation drilling is particularly important because on Don Luis the silver
results from diamond drilling, while very encouraging (News Release #10: May
28th 2010), are thought to be low because of poor core recovery in our
preliminary diamond drilling campaign. The larger sample size, more complete and
more representative sample from reverse circulation drilling is expected to
yield higher silver values.

Acquisition of this drill is considered critical to evaluation, not only for Don
Luis, but also for the extensive and highly prospective suite of silver, gold
and copper properties held by Rome in Mexico. Training of Mexican operators is
in full swing. Advantages of having our own drill include: (i) faster, cheaper
drilling and easier sample preparation, and generally more reliable assay
results from reverse circulation drilling compared to diamond drilling-this is
expected to lead to quicker evaluations and information for investors, (ii)
avoidance of lead time in obtaining a drill contractor-currently as much as nine
months, and (iii) ease of mobilization to any of Rome's properties in Sonora and
Michoacan.

Rome Resources Ltd. is a Canadian mineral exploration company focused on silver,
gold, copper and tungsten projects in Mexico and Argentina. It is traded on the
