Volta Now Extends Gold Mineralization at Depth at Its Kiaka Gold Project Intersects 72.30 m at 2.15 g/t Gold, Including 20.00 m at 2.71 g/t Gold and 22.90 m at 3.47g/t Gold

TORONTO, Canada, November 29, 2010 /PRNewswire/ --

- Also 63.60 m at 2.68 g/t Gold, Including 21.50m at 5.79 g/t Gold

Volta Resources Inc. ("Volta" or the "Company") (TSX: VTR) announced today the first drill results from its new, on-going, drilling program comprising more than 250 holes for approximately 50,000 meters in the Central Area at its Kiaka Gold Project in Burkina Faso (see News Release of 22 September 2010).

Results have been received to date for 8 holes from this campaign, six holes located on Section 5275N and two holes located on Section 5300N, respectively (See Figure 1). These holes were mainly aimed at infilling the main deposit, defined so far, in the Central Area to 25m x 50m drill spacing and extending the drilling depth down another 100 vertical meters to a vertical depth of 300 meters. The highlights from these two sections include:

- KDH 143 : 63.60m @ 2.68 g/t Au, including 21.50m @ 5.79 g/t Au AND - KDH 143 : 115.00m @ 1.06 g/t Au, including 16.55m @ 1.72 g/t Au - KDH 145 : 79.00m @ 0.98 g/t Au, including 43.00m @ 1.41 g/t Au - KDH 146 : 84.00m @ 1.56 g/t Au, including 11.75m @ 3.35 g/t Au AND 23.0m @ 2.25 g/t Au - KDH 151 : 33.50m @ 1.93 g/t Au, including 23.00m @ 2.13 g/t Au AND - KDH 151 : 75.25m @ 1.35 g/t Au, including 32.55m @ 2.18 g/t Au - KDH 150 : 72.30m @ 2.15 g/t Au, including 20.00m @ 2.71 g/t Au AND 22.90m @ 3.47 g/t Au AND - KDH 150 : 16.00m @ 2.03 g/t Au, including 4.90m @ 4.27 g/t Au

Kevin Bullock, Volta's President and CEO, said, "With the infill holes confirming the excellent results consistently seen from our first drill program, along with the deeper holes hitting the mineralization down to a 300 meter depth, we are pleased about the resource growth potential at the Kiaka Gold Project."

The holes on Sections 5275N and 5300N have extended the mineralization to over 300m vertical depth, while Hole KDH 150 on Section 5300N has also extended the width of the Kiaka Hanging Wall Zone.

Results for the holes are highlighted in Table 1 below and for section 5275N in Figure 2. Analyses of the Volta samples were undertaken by fire assay on a 50 gram charge at ALS Chemex Laboratories in Ouagadougou. Volta's sampling and assay procedures included QA/QC elements that employed the inclusion of certified standards and blanks.

Notes on Tables 1:

1) Intervals are core length. True width is unknown at this time.

2) Intersections are based on a 0.3 g/t gold cut-off with maximum internal dilution (MID) of 5m for the lower grade mineralization envelope.

3) In order to highlight the continuity of the high grade zone, a 0.8 g/t gold cut-off with maximum internal dilution of 2m has been used. No top cut has been applied.

4) The intersections listed in the table represent sections of at least 3m in excess of 1g/t Au and/or sections of at least 10m in excess of 0.5g/t Au.

5) The intersections represent sections drilled by reverse circulation (RC) and/or core drilling (see Table 2).

6) The RC portions of the drill holes were sampled at 1-m intervals. Dry samples were riffle-split to provide 2 kg samples sent to the laboratory. Wet samples were dried in the field, then riffle-split in the same way. The core portion of the drill holes were sampled at one metre intervals and cut in half using a diamond saw. Half-core is archived at the core storage facility on site while the other half was sent to the laboratory.

7) Samples were sent to ALS Chemex in Ouagadougou for standard preparation followed by Fire Assay on a 50g charge.

8) Certified standards were inserted every 15 samples, field duplicates (in the RC portions) about every 20 and blanks about every 30 samples. The blanks, certified standards and duplicate assays confirm that all assays used to compile the intersections quoted here have passed Volta's rigorous QA/QC checks.

Although the management and officers of Volta believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions and have attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.
