VANCOUVER, Nov. 29, 2011 /PRNewswire/ - Brazil Resources Inc. (the "Company" or "Brazil Resources") (TSX-V: BRI) is pleased to announce it has staked 247,000 acres covering the Pireneus region in Goias State, Brazil. The project area is located approximately 150 km west of Brasilia and contains several occurrences of historic artisanal gold mining operations.

After completing a preliminary review of available exploration data and examining neighbouring projects, the Company's geological team is encouraged by the potential of the new project area. Goias State is an emerging gold-producing district in Brazil with increasing production from the Kinross-Anglogold Ashanti Crixas Mine and Yamana Gold's Chapada Mine, and total qualified gold resources of more than 7 million ounces. The Company has identified areas of initial interest based on geophysical surveys and regional geochemical sampling. A regional exploration program is scheduled to begin immediately upon obtaining the requisite exploration license, which will include mapping, stream sediment sampling, soil sampling and geophysical reconnaissance on these areas.

President and CEO Stephen Swatton stated, "Today's announcement is a significant development in realizing our goals to establish a diversified project portfolio throughout Brazil by adding this district-sized land package in one of Brazil's most prominent mining jurisdictions. We continue to be excited by the potential of our exploration activities in the Gurupi Belt, including our pending drilling program at Montes Áureos, which is currently our primary project."

The staked area is being acquired by the Company through an application to the Brazilian National Department of Mining Production for a new exploration license, which has priority and is pending approval. The initial term of the exploration license is three years from the date of official publication. Under the terms of the license, in addition to its exploration programs and other requirements under the license and applicable law, the Company will be responsible for annual land fees.
