Highlights during the fourth quarter of 2010 include:

Kirrin completed two private placements, the first of 8,425,000 units at a purchase price of $0.08 per unit for proceeds of $674,000, the second of 15,000,000 flow-through units at a purchase price of $0.10 per flow-through unit for proceeds of $1,500,000.

The Company initiated a 1,500 m drill program at its Lost Pond uranium project in western Newfoundland. Drilling tested the continuation of the uranium bearing Cataclastic Zone at depth and down plunge targeting an increase in grade below the existing holes. The program was completed during December 2010 and consisted of 1,358.3 m in four holes of BQ-TK sized core, with each hole ranging between 253 and 390 m in length.

A new geophysical interpretation at the Grevet REE project in northwestern Quebec was undertaken. This was followed by a synthesis of all 2010 and historic results. The results, conclusions and recommendations from these two reports are being evaluated and the recommendations therefrom will form the foundation for the planned 2011 exploration program at Grevet.

2010 highlights include:

Kirrin's exploration activities during 2010 met with considerable success. The two projects added at the start of the year, the Grevet REE property in Quebec and the Key Lake SW uranium project in Saskatchewan, returned encouraging results. Sampling grades at Grevet included 14.08% light rare earth oxides (LREO) in a grab sample from a narrow carbonatite dyke and 1.61% LREO across 2.2 m from a wider carbonatite dyke. These confirm the potential of the Grevet REE property to host REE-bearing carbonatite deposits with LREO grades of definite interest. The interpretation of the airborne electro-magnetic survey at Key Lake SW identified nineteen priority targets that warrant follow-up assessment. Some of these anomalies correlate with geological, geophysical or geochemical anomalies identified from prior exploration whereas others are newly identified. All are prospective for ingress style (that is, basement hosted) uranium deposits along the geologically favourable Wollaston Group basement trend. Drilling at the Lost Pond uranium project in western Newfoundland was less encouraging. Three of the four holes intersected anomalous uranium values, however, the intensity of mineralization varied considerably and the grade did not improve with depth. The uranium program at Lost Pond has accordingly been suspended and its carrying costs in the amount of $431,347 written off.

Reg A. Olson, Ph.D., P. Geol. is the designated Qualified Person for Kirrin on the Bottom Brook, Grevet, KLSW and Lost Pond projects.
