Silver Pursuit Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE: SPF) ("Silver Pursuit" or the "Company") announces the appointment of Mr. Adrian Robertson as President and Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") of the Company.

Mr. Robertson graduated with a degree in mining engineering from Queen's University in 2002.

Mr. Robertson has visited Sonora State, Mexico, and met with the owners of the La Quinterra, La Tuna and La Luz projects several times since joining the board of Silver Pursuit in December 2010.
