ROUYN-NORANDA, QC, June 22, 2011 /CNW/ --
Listing (TSXV = LO Frankfurt = LE2A)

ROUYN-NORANDA, QC, June 22, 2011 /CNW Telbec/ - (TSXV: LO) (FSE: LE2A) LOUNOR EXPLORATION INC. reports three (3) additional drill results on the Harker Gold Property,
located in Harker Twp in the Timmins/Kirkland Lake area (Ontario).

The Harker Gold Property is located 5 km south of the Destor Porcupine
Fault Zone (DPFZ) host of many important gold mines in the Timmins -
Porcupine Gold Mining Camp (over 70 millions ounces of gold). The Holt
McDermot Mine (1.3 million ounces) and the Harker Halloway Mine (1.4
million ounces) are located on the DPFZ about 5 km north-northeast of
the property.

The 95 holes completed by Lounor to date have intersected the
mineralized zones. The results of the program have proven the gold zone to be over 425 metres in strike length and to a vertical depth of 250 metres. It is open to the east, to the west and at depth. Three diamond drill holes drilled near the surface, already announced
in Press Release dated May 31, 2011, extended the gold zone by 50
meters toward the west1.

Three diamond drill holes intersected the gold zone down plunge at a
vertical depth of 250 meters with a significant increase of the width of the gold zone.

(3)   Total gold zone of 5.94 m with low gold values.

The increase of the width of the gold zone is significant and the
Company is planning another drill program.

To date, the 95 holes drilled have intersected the structure containing
the mineralized zones. The continuity of the structure and the gold
zones contained herein are an important feature of the mineralization
in the Harker area.

The Harker-Hurd Zone is interpreted to be an extensive zone of gold
mineralization measuring at least 425 m along strike and 250m of depth and remains open along strike to the east, the west and at
depth. Mineralization, which is plunging to the east, occurs in
silicified and albitized mafic volcanic rocks with approximately 5%
dissemination pyrite mineralization. Gold mineralization is similar to
the neighbouring Holt-McDermott Zone.

The gold mineralization at Harker-Hurd is distributed with a similar
pattern to that of the Holt-McDermott gold mine where gold
mineralization is found in high grade ore shoots within a broader
envelop of lower grade gold mineralization that plunges to the east.
