ALHAMBRA RESOURCES LTD (ALH - TSX VENTURE) NEWS RELEASE DATED APRIL 28, 2011; DR
ILLING RESULTS EXPAND SHIROTNAIA GOLD MINERALIZATION



Dear Investor,
Please find attached the Alhambra Resources Ltd.

(ALH - TSX Venture) news release which was distributed earlier this morning titled, "Drilling Results Expand Shirotnaia Gold Mineralization."
CALGARY, Alberta - Alhambra Resources Ltd.

(TSX Venture: ALH) ("Alhambra" or the "Corporation"), an international gold producer and explorer, announces reverse circulation ("RC") drilling results from its 100% owned advanced exploration drilling target at the Shirotnaia project area ("Shirotnaia"). The recent 43 hole RC drilling program has expanded the 2007/2010 core drilling defined area of gold mineralization and has provided new priority targets for immediate core drilling follow-up.


Prior to 2010, previous drilling at Shirotnaia had identified a large gold anomaly and significant gold mineralization with a high peak gold grade of up to 51.6 g/t (see news release dated March 4, 2010).

In addition, two significant widths of higher-grade gold mineralization were encountered within a large area of lower grade gold mineralization, suggesting the probable continuation of the higher-grades to depth typical of this orogenic style of mineralization.

Core drilling reported in January, 2011 (see News Release dated January 5, 2011) yielded very encouraging results both in widths and gold grade.


HIGHLIGHTS
.

The successful RC drilling program confirmed the presence of gold mineralization outside the boundaries of that previously known, .

Broad intervals of anomalous gold concentrations (for +0.15 g/t) were intersected in 34 of 43 holes drilled, .

Petrological studies indicate this is the top of the mineralized system and higher-grades are anticipated at depth, .

A link was established between previous successful core drilling programs which proved the existence of at least one continuous and significant higher-grade mineralized zone.
For more details, please read the attached.
