VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 07/21/11 -- MARIFIL MINES LTD. (TSX VENTURE: MFM) ('Marifil' or 'the Company') announces that Saccharum Energy Corp.

Mr. Johannes Kingma, President of Saccharum Energy Inc. states, 'We are highly encouraged by the quality of this project and are planning an aggressive exploration program including drilling three core holes around discovery hole Md Rbi x-2 which cut 4.5 meters grading 20 to 22% K2O at a shallow depth of 221.5 meters.'
Mr. John Hite reports, 'Marifil is now in a strong financial position with more than $1 million of income this year and with partners who will be spending millions of dollars on our projects. This year we expect our partners will be drilling our San Roque, Toruel and Catamarca projects.
We are now focusing on replenishing our pipeline of new projects including a copper project, a gold project, and a phosphate project.'
This press release has been reviewed and approved by John Hite, President of Marifil Mines Ltd. and by Richard Walters, Vice President under whose directions the exploration program is being carried out. Mr. Walters is a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101.
