Murgor Releases Preliminary Results From The Fancamp Gold Property; North-western Quebec



Kingston, Ontario, July 30, 2009 - Murgor Resources Inc. (MGR: TSX-V) today announced preliminary results from a prospecting program at its 100% owned Fancamp Gold Property in north-western Quebec .

The program was carried-out in late June and early July of 2009 and was aimed at field-proofing certain areas of interest at the property prior to a more extensive mechanical trenching program to be carried-out later this summer. During this prospecting program, Murgor geologists successfully relocated three historical trenches dating from 1949 and 1950. The three trenches are staggered within a radius of approximately 150 meters and appear to have tested a wide NE-trending shear zone with gold-bearing quartz veins of up to 1.5 meters in width. The following historical values are reported for "heavy chip samples" in the three trenches from east to west:

• Trench B: 1.35 oz/ton over 20 feet
• Trench C: 0.19 oz/ton over 38 feet
• Trench A: 0.31 oz/ton over 40 feet

Six shallow drill holes, also from 1949 and 1950 have sporadically tested the area. The width of the intersections and the material that was analysed suggest that core recoveries were poor due to the drilling method at the time, and only quartz vein material was analysed. Drill holes M-1 appears to be located NW of Trench A, drill holes M-2, 3 are located near Trench C, and drill holes M-4, 5 and 6 are located near Trench B. Drill hole collars could not be located in the field. All drill holes at the time returned significant assay results. Best results are as follows:

DDH M-1: 0.21 oz/ton Gold over 10.0 feet of sludge
DDH M-2: 0.14 oz/ton Gold over 4.0 feet of sludge
DDH M-3: 0.12 oz/ton Gold over 1.5 feet of core
DDH M-4: 0.46 oz/ton Gold over 5.0 feet or core
DDH M-5: 0.36 oz/ton Gold over 10.0 feet of core
DDH M-6: 0.52 oz/ton Gold over 5.0 feet of core
and 0.24 oz/ton Gold over 9.0 feet of core
and 0.36 oz/ton Gold over 3.0 feet of core

The trenches are now overgrown by vegetation and trench walls have caved-in, but the few small remaining exposures were sampled by Murgor geologists. Murgor's sampling confirms that both quartz veins and wall rocks carry high grade gold, with three of the four grab samples adjacent to Trench A returning the following assays:

Sample Number Assay Result Sample Description
1112504 29.3 g/t Gold 40-50% quartz-tourmaline vein in basalt 1-7% disseminated Pyrite.
1112505 3.62 g/t Gold

Tourmaline and minor quartz vein with 3-5% disseminated Pyrite.

1112506 9.21 g/t Gold

Weakly silicified basalt with 5% disseminated Pyrite (no quartz vein material).

Murgor is planning an extensive mechanical trenching program at the Fancamp property in August of 2009 to expose and thus better understand the controls of the gold mineralization of these zones. A drilling program may follow depending on the results from the mechanical trenching and sampling program.

About the Fancamp Property :

The 100% Murgor owned Fancamp property covers 43 claims (1,712 ha) located approximately 55 kilometers south of the town of Chibougamau in north-western Québec.

The property covers a six kilometer strike length of the Fancamp Deformation zone which is host to the Chevrier Gold deposit (1.1Mt @ 6.4 g/t Au and 230Mt @ 0.3 g/t Au), five kilometers NE of the Fancamp Property.

In the mid-80's, trenching, diamond drilling and limited underground development by Murgor yielded results such as: 10.6 g/t Au over 12.2 meters channel sample, 9.3 g/t Au over 8.2 meters channel sample and 4.60 g/t Au over 3.05 meters drill core.

Murgor returned to the Fancamp Property in 2004 after a 16 year exploration hiatus, following a change in management.
