Cartier Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:ECR) ("Cartier") is pleased to announce the
discovery of several gold-silver-copper-zinc volcanogenic massive sulphide type
("VMS") mineralization systems on four sectors of the Kinojevis Project (see
attached map).


Previous drilling (KI-08-22, 31, 32, 33 and 25A), prospecting and trenching as
well as compilation of the historic to deposits adjacent to the property
demonstrate that all the geological elements are present for the discovery of a
VMS-type gold-silver-copper-zinc deposit.


MacCormack Rhyolite Sector:

- Drilling and trenching has outlined a horizon with massive sulphide beds that
mark the upper contact of a 250-meter thick rhyolite dome;


- Recent ministry work has demonstrated that the rhyolite is the time equivalent
stratigraphy of the Kidd-Munro sequence that hosts the Kidd-Creek mine(138 Mt at
2.35% Cu, 6.5% Zn, 0.23% Pb and 0.89 g/t Ag);


- The upper part of the rhyolite is brecciated, highly chloritized and anomalous
in gold with 0.90 g/t Au over 0.73m (channel sample), 1.4 g/t Au (grab sample),
and 0.17 g/t Au over 10.0m (hole KI-08-31) including 0.60 g/t Au over 1.0m;


- Holes KI-08-22, 31, 32 and 33 have cut a rhyolitic breccia that is highly
silicified and mineralized (pyrite, pyrrhotite, sphalerite) with massive
sulphide horizons;


- The rhyolite presents highly chloritized and sericitized sections over a
strike length of 900 metres.


Hole KI-08-25A area:

- A volcanic contact marked by a cherty and brecciated horizon with massive
pyrite and magnetite, returned 0.32% Zn over 2.7 metres and 0.11% Cu over 0.70
metres;


- This horizon is signatured by a series of airborne geophysical anomalies
indicating a higher concentration of sulphides 600 meters east of hole
KI-08-25A.


Newconex Deposit Extension Sector:

- The Newconex deposit is owned by the Agnico-Eagle Mines Limited and is
immediately to the east of the property's boundary. In 1986, Roscoe Mining
Services Inc. estimated a historical mineral resources at 393,523 short tons
with 4,97% Zn, 40,45 g/t Ag and 0,35% Cu. Mineralization is composed of pyrite,
sphalerite, chalcopyrite with traces of galena;


- The eastern and western extensions of this mineralization are signatured by
(EM and Mag) anomalies on Cartier property.


Landome Deposit Extension Sector:

- The Landome deposit is held by Ressource Cogitore inc. and is located
immediately east of the Kinojevis property in the St.Marc area. A historical
reserves calculation dating back to 1975 by Placer Dome inc. estimated that
there were 251,304 tons at 2.5% Cu and 2.0% Zn. Mineralization consists of
massive sulphide horizons associated with strong chlorite alteration of a felsic
rock sequence;


- The altered and mineralized horizons along with a group of airborne EM
anomalies cross into the Kinojevis property in a poorly tested area.
