VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire -08/23/11)- Rogue Resources Inc. (TSX-V: RRS.V - News) (the "Company") announces diamond drilling has commenced at its 100% owned Radio Hill Iron Ore project, located 80 km southwest of Timmins, Ontario. Orbit Garant Drilling Inc. (TSX: OGD.TO - News) of Val d'Or, Quebec has been contracted to conduct the drilling campaign. The drill was delivered and set up on site during the second week of August and drilling commenced this week. Drilling is expected to continue through 2011 and will culminate with an updated resource estimate on the Radio Hill historical resource(i). The contract allows for a second rig to be added as needed.

"Our exploration and resource definition programs are on track and we expect to receive results throughout the fall," comments Company President & CEO, Steve de Jong. "The Company is well financed for the upcoming program and we will continue to work together with our various consultants to monitor progress as we advance the project to the next level."

The Radio Hill historical resource(i) was developed in the 1960s by Kukatush Mining Corp., who spent an estimated $10 million on exploration and metallurgical work, including 140 drill holes and a number of metallurgical studies. Following resource definition, a feasibility study was completed by FENCO Ltd., after which a railway siding and grade from the CN mainline to the deposit were built, a distance of about 4 km.

The historical feasibility study indicated a 3.5:1 concentration ratio (3.5 tons of iron ore to produce 1 ton of concentrate) which would produce a concentrate grade of between 66% and 68% Fe. At the time, recovery and pelletizing tests were also conducted which included laboratory and pilot testing of grinding, concentrating and pelletizing practices to a complete feasibility study of a Radio Hill pelletizing operation (Neal and Ridell, 1965).

The Radio Hill Project is located 85 km southwest of Timmins in an area known for its excellent infrastructure and access to mining expertise. The property's excellent location is complimented by its easy access to rail, with the southern portion of the project being transected by the CN Railway mainline.

Freeman Smith, P.Geo., is the qualified person for the purposes of National Instrument 43-101 and has reviewed the technical contents of this press release.

(i) The historical estimates and feasibility values mentioned in this document are not in accordance with the mineral resources or mineral reserves classifications contained in the CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, as required by National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101"). Accordingly, the Company is not treating these historical estimates as current mineral resources or mineral reserves as defined in NI 43-101 and such historical estimates should not be relied upon. A qualified person has not done sufficient work to date to classify the historical estimates as current mineral resources or mineral reserves. The term "ore" in this document is being used in a descriptive sense for historical accuracy, and is not to be misconstrued as representing current economic viability.
