Williams Creek Explorations Limited (TSX VENTURE:WCX) (the "Company," "WCX," or
"Williams Creek") is pleased to announce that it will undertake a comprehensive
exploration program, including a drilling program, on its Crown Granted mineral
claims in the Barkerville, BC area during the spring and summer of 2011. The
Board of Directors of Williams Creek unanimously approved the program at its
meeting on Friday, January 28, 2011.


The exploration program will comprise a two-phase drilling program coupled with
a concurrent surface exploration program consisting of a trenching program,
supplemental geologic mapping, geochemical analysis, and other geologic
analysis.


Childs Geoscience, Inc. of Bozeman, MT, is acting as the consulting geologist on
the project, and John Childs, PhD. will act as the Qualified Person under the
definition of National Instrument 43-101. Drilling will be conducted by Hardcore
Drilling Ltd. out of Penticton, BC.


Permits for drilling have already been received from the BC Ministry of Natural
Resource Operations. The exploration program is fully funded. Funds raised by
Williams Creek via the offering of Flow Through Shares that closed on December
24, 2010 will cover the majority of the exploration program's expenses.


"Williams Creek's package of crown grants in the Barkerville area has long been
considered a highly prospective group of claims. Historic limited channel
samples and drilling results give cause for optimism," said Michael R.
Sonnenreich, Chairman and CEO of Williams Creek. "Our plan is to take advantage
of all of the information available from previous exploration, and the improving
understanding of the geology of the region, to engage in a comprehensive program
exploring our holdings for gold mineralization. We feel this project is a key
component of William's Creek's three-part strategy of exploration, joint
ventures and investment, and financing, and look forward to advancing the
Barkerville project."
