Change of Name to Curis Resources Ltd & New Trading Symbol "CUV"

VANCOUVER, Jan. 31 /CNW/ - PCI-1 Capital Corp. (the "Company") (TSX-V: ICC) announces that on January 28, 2011, shareholders approved the change of its name to Curis Resources Ltd. ("Curis"). The Company also has a new trading symbol on the TSX Venture Exchange, and will begin trading under the symbol "CUV" shortly.

The name Curis is an acronym for Copper (Cu)-Recovery-In-Situ. Curis' focus is to develop its flagship Florence Copper Project in Arizona, USA, into a world class low cost copper producer in the near term. The Florence Copper Project was advanced to the point of having all project operating permits in place, a feasibility study completed and the successful operation of a pilot test by former owner BHP Copper Inc. in the late 1990's.

"We are well positioned to establish Curis as a near term next-generation copper producer," said Curis President & CEO Michael McPhie. "Our 100%-owned Florence Project hosts a copper oxide deposit with a 429 million tonne measured and indicated resource1 that is amenable to in-situ copper recovery (ISCR) and industry-standard solvent extraction and electrowinning (SX/EW) copper production. In late 2010, we announced the completion of a very positive preliminary economic assessment (PEA) for the project and raised $38 million to advance our 18 month work plan (see November 25, 2010 news release). Over the next year, we expect to optimize our project engineering, complete a feasibility study and complete project permitting. Project permitting involves the amendment and updating of the operational permits for the project through a well-defined and time limited amendment process. Upon successful completion of these activities, Curis will start a Phase 1 development program that will involve the drilling and activation of an initial ISCR well-block and construction and commissioning of a temporary SX-EW plant to produce 99.999% pure copper cathode at the Florence Copper Project site. Construction of the full commercial SX/EW plant and well field facilities and associated infrastructure (Phase 2) will follow Phase 1 and is planned to start in late 2012."
