	February 28, 2011 Balmoral Continues to Expand Detour Trend Land Position
	Vancouver, British Columbia -- Balmoral Resources Ltd. ("Balmoral" or the "Company") (TSXV:BAR) announced today that it has further expanded its property position along the Detour Lake Gold Trend in central Quebec via the acquisition, by staking, of 176 claims covering approximately 97.3 square kilometres. The newly acquired claims are adjacent to, and now connect, the Company's Martiniere and Fenelon gold projects. Drilling is on-going on both projects (see drilling update below). A map detailing Balmoral's latest acquisitions will be made available on the Company's website, www.balmoralresources.com, once the claim positions have been finalized and geological interpretation completed. "Based on our review of historic exploration activities and the initial geological interpretation obtained from our on-going drill program on the Fenelon and Martiniere properties, Balmoral has elected to acquire the majority of the land located north of the Sunday/Detour Lake Deformation Zone over an 80 kilometre stretch in Quebec" said Darin Wagner, President and CEO of Balmoral Resources. "With the continued expansion of the Detour Lake gold system, and based on initial geological encouragement from our projects in Quebec, we believe the Detour Lake Trend has the potential to join the major gold bearing systems within the Abitibi which include the prolific Timmins, Kirkland Lake, Val d'Or, Rouyn-Noranda and Casa Berardi gold camps." Exploration Update Drilling on Balmoral's Fenelon and Martiniere gold projects, both located along the Detour Lake Gold Trend, continues. As part of its Phase 1 2011 program Balmoral has so far completed 14 of a planned 36 diamond drill holes on the Fenelon high-grade gold project and an additional 7 of a planned 20 holes on the nearby Martiniere gold project. To date approximately 2,500 samples have been submitted for gold and multi-element analysis. Initial analytical results from each of the Fenelon and Martiniere projects are anticipated within the next 2-4 weeks. Mr. Darin Wagner (P.Geo.), President and CEO of the Company, is the non-independent qualified person for the technical disclosure contained in this news release. Mr. Wagner has supervised the initial work programs on the properties, visited the properties on multiple occasions and reviewed the technical documents from each of the properties.
