Dalradian Resources Discovers New Gold Target in Northern Ireland With Float Samples Returning 30.30 g/t of Gold and 29.20 g/t of Gold

Dalradian Resources Inc. ("Dalradian" or the "Company") (TSX: DNA) (OTCQX: DRLDF) has received results from its ongoing exploration program in Northern Ireland. The new discovery area known as Fallagh, is approximately 3.5 km to the south west of the Curraghinalt gold deposit. Recent prospecting samples from the area have returned high-grade gold numbers including 30.30 g/t of gold and 29.20 g/t of gold.

“We continue to prove that additional gold potential exists on our Northern Ireland properties outside of the current resource.” CEO, Patrick F. N. Anderson commented, “Follow up crews will tighten the soil geochem grid on this target and immediately prioritize for drilling.”

Prospecting crews uncovered a cluster of angular float samples of gold bearing vuggy, quartz-carbonate- pyritic vein material. Eighteen samples were collected and 50% of these assayed greater than 3 g/t gold. The highest-grade sample is located in a small creek approximately 800 m down slope from the main cluster of samples. The cluster of gold bearing float samples at Fallagh is between two interpreted east-west lineaments evident in the regional aeromagnetic signature. Glacial dispersion in the area is thought to be minimal, as evidenced by the gold in soil anomaly over Curraghinalt, therefore the bedrock source of the float samples at Fallagh is expected to be nearby.

Selected Prospecting Assay Results

Note:

Values range from <0.01 g/t of gold to 30.30 g/t of gold for the complete dataset of 18 samples.

Dalradian has initiated a soil geochemical survey to follow-up on these results. Surface geochemistry was instrumental in Dalradian’s 2012 discovery at Alwories and is expected to be the primary means of identifying drill targets at Fallagh.

Drilling continues both at the Curraghinalt gold deposit and the Alwories gold discovery announced late last year. Results from these ongoing programs are expected shortly. The Company has entered into discussions with drilling companies to obtain additional drill rigs for operations in Northern Ireland.
