ICN Resources Announces Cash and Share Issuance to Lode Star Gold Inc. and Project Update

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire - April 17, 2012) - ICN Resources Ltd. ("ICN" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:ICN) is pleased to announce that it has made the first anniversary cash payment of US$100,000 and issued 500,000 units to Lode Star Gold Inc. ("Lode Star") for the option payment on Lode Star's Goldfield Bonanza Project, as per the TSX Venture Exchange approved Definitive Agreement announced in March 2011 (see ICN News Release of March 29, 2011). Each unit consists of one ICN common share and one common share purchase warrant, with each warrant entitling the holder to purchase one additional common share of ICN for a period of two years at an exercise price of $0.14. The warrants issued are subject to a statutory hold period expiring on August 10, 2012.

ICN is currently reviewing a consultant's detailed interpretation of results from a biogeochemical survey completed previously on the Goldfield Bonanza Project. Details will be released when interpretation is complete. The survey highlights strong anomalies in several different areas where ICN has not yet completed any drilling. These new target areas, along with untested geophysical anomalies, will be tested in future drill programs. Three dimensional modeling of the high grade mineralization (> 30 g/t Au) encountered in both the Phase I and Phase II drill campaigns is also in progress and will further assist in future drill hole targeting.

Mark Walmesley, a director of Lode Star says, "ICN has accomplished much during this first year of exploration to advance the geologic merit of our property. We have gathered considerable amounts of positive geologic data and we are now in the process of analyzing and modeling it. The next few months will be exciting as we determine how to best execute the commencement of our next phase of drilling."
