Iron Creek starts drilling at the Pampa Sur gold-silver project, Chile

November 7, 2011

TSX-V: IRN

VANCOUVER, Nov. 7, 2011 /PRNewswire/ – Iron Creek Capital Corp. (TSX-V: IRN -
“Iron Creek”) is pleased to report that a reverse circulation drill rig
has been secured and that drilling is underway at its wholly owned
Pampa Sur gold-silver Project. The principal targets are
low-sulphidation, precious metals quartz veins of a type similar to
those found at Yamana’s El Penon mine located along trend some 40km to
the north-northeast.

The initial program at Pampa Sur will consist of up to 3,000m of reverse
circulation drilling that will target a series of geochemical anomalies
in soils, colluvium and epithermal vein quartz float, together with
geophysical anomalies (CSAMT) that are believed to represent silicified
structures and/or alteration zones related to possible precious metals
veins at depth (see press releases dated July 20(th) 2011, May 9(th) 2011, and September 30(th) 2010, as well as Iron Creek’s website, for further details).

Iron Creek will drill a series of “scissor” hole pairs placed along the
geochemical and geophysical survey lines, targeted at several priority
anomalies, because the dip directions of potential sub-surface
structures are not well understood at this stage. Most of the targeted
anomalies occur in areas of thin to moderate thicknesses of soil or
colluvial cover that obscure the underlying bedrock.

The Pampa Sur project covers approximately 11,300 hectares and more than
15km of continuous strike length of the prospective Dominador Fault
Zone (DFZ) in the Palaeocene-Eocene volcanic belt, host to important
precious metals and copper deposits in northern Chile. It is
immediately south of, and contiguous with Iron Creek’s Pampa Buenos
Aires project that is being explored in joint venture with Andina
Minerals Inc. (TSX-V: ADM – “Andina”). It also lies approximately 40km
south-southwest of Yamana’s El Peñon and Fortuna deposits (+7 million
oz gold and +200 million oz silver).

The services of Terra Service S.A., a highly reputable drilling company,
have been secured for this drilling program. Once the initial 3,000m
drilling program at Pampa Sur has been completed, the drill rig will be
moved to the Pampa Buenos Aires joint-venture property with Andina
immediately to the north, targeting yet further geochemical and
geophysical anomalies for an additional program of approximately 3,000m
of drilling.
