Sabina: Surface Channel Sampling Gold Results at Follansbee Red Lake Confirm Continuity of Drill Results to Surface

Thunder Bay, Ontario (ots/PRNewswire)

- Shares Issued: 36,524,244
Sabina Resources Limited (TSX-V:SBB) is pleased to announce that
surface  sampling and diamond drilling results to date show
consistent gold assay  results and continue to intersect significant
gold grades in several  sub-parallel zones identified on the
Company's 60% owned Follansbee Joint  Venture Property (40% Wolfden
Resources Inc. TSX:WLF) in the Red Lake Mining  District. The near
surface, bulk tonnage gold deposit model emerging at  Follansbee adds
a new dimension to future production possibilities in the  Red Lake
gold camp.
Recent surface channel sampling on a mechanically stripped outcrop
area  on the Follansbee Property returned an interval of 3.01 g/T
gold over 12. 95m (95% true width) where exposed on surface,
including a higher grade  interval of 4.45 g/T gold over 6.60m. The
surface mineralization is  situated approximately 50m east and up-dip
from Sabina's previously  reported intersection of 5.05 g/T gold over
34.95m in Hole SWF-05-20 (July  11, 2005). Recent extension of Hole
05WB-27 into a horizon 250m west of the  surface sampling, also
obtained a composite interval of 8.66 g/T gold over  22m (true width
estimated at 50-70% of core interval) in a similar horizon.  The
surface sampling is also located 250m east of a drill intersection of
2.15 g/T gold across 82.55m (Hole 05WB-06) in a similar horizon on
the  Follansbee Property (previously reported July 11, 2005).
The horizon of interest is called the "Conglomerate Zone" and
consists  of mineralized, silicified conglomeratic metasediments in
contact with  silicified greywacke rocks wholly contained within a
sedimentary sequence  and is believed to represent one of least three
potentially bulk-mineable  zones on the Follansbee Property.
Newly exposed silicified and sulphide mineralized rocks have also
been  observed in outcrop for over 200m to the northeast. Pressure
washing,  detailed geological mapping and systematic channel sampling
are in progress.  Two drills are currently drilling onto the
Follansbee Property and a  drill proposal is being prepared to infill
the Conglomerate Zone on 50m  centres to verify continuity and grade
characteristics.
Drilling to date has intersected gold mineralization in additional
horizons over a strike length of more than 500 meters across the
Follansbee  and adjacent Bonanza Property (100% Wolfden). These are
referred to as the  "Sulphide" and "Silicified" Zones, interpreted to
be sub-parallel fault  controlled horizons displaying both vertical
and horizontal continuity both  on the Follansbee JV Property and the
Bonanza Property. Both horizons  contain significant widths of
near-surface mineralization in addition to  evident shoots of
higher-grade gold mineralization such as that previously  reported by
Sabina (June 20, 2005), suggesting good potential to develop a  "bulk
tonnage" gold deposit at Follansbee and Bonanza with very favorable
gold grade characteristics. Mineralization remains open both along
strike  and down dip.
Gold mineralization at Follansbee and Bonanza occurs along the
main Red  Lake "Mine Trend" in a major east-west shear/alteration
zone, proximal to a  contact phase between Bruce Channel sediments
and Balmer Assemblage  volcanics containing ultramafic rock units.
High-grade gold in the Red Lake  Greenstone belt is often found in
high strain zones proximal to ultramafic  rock units. Ultramafic rock
units have been intersected on the Bonanza and  Follansbee
Properties. Red Lake is world renowned for deep high-grade gold,
with Placer Dome's Campbell Gold Mine and Goldcorp's Red Lake Mine,
located  approximately 3 km to the east of Follansbee Property.
Diamond drill core at Follansbee has been split, with half the
core  retained at secure facilities in Red Lake and half sent to
Accurassay  Laboratories, Thunder Bay for fire assay with atomic
absorption finish. Mr.  David S. Hunt, P.Geo., is the qualified
