Goldcorp drills four holes on Conquest’s Alexander property at RED LAKE -

· new GOLD INTERSECTION of 14.25 G/T OVER 0.61 METRES AT A DEPTH OF 300 METRES
Toronto, Ontario – May 25, 2009 -

Conquest Resources Limited -
(TSX-V: “CQR”) is pleased to announce that Goldcorp Inc.
(“Goldcorp”) has recently completed four diamond drill holes
on to Conquest’s Alexander Property at Red Lake, Ontario.

The holes were drilled by Goldcorp from its adjacent Red Lake Mine Property
as part of a wider program to delineate mineralization
within the upper part of the Red Lake Mine.

The four inclined holes, which were collared from surface
within approximately 1,000 metres of the Red Lake Mine
No. 1 Shaft headframe, were drilled in a north-easterly
direction into the western part of Conquest’s property
to downhole depths between 690 to 836 metres.

Hole DS641 of Goldcorp’s drilling programme located
a significant gold intersection of 4.97 grams per tonne
gold over 1.82 metres, including 14.25 g/t over 0.61m,
at a down hole depth of 473 metres and an estimated vertical
depth of approximately 300 metres.

The preliminary drilling results were provided to Conquest
by Goldcorp.
The gold assay results were determined by SGS and Accurassay
Laboratories in Red Lake and Thunder Bay, Ontario.

Conquest’s Alexander Gold Project is located in Balmer Township
in the heart of the Red Lake Gold Camp.
It lies immediately adjacent to Goldcorp’s high grade
Red Lake Mine, within the east-southeast trending
“Mine Trend” deformation zone, and is almost
completely surrounded by Goldcorp’s claim holdings.

Commenting on the drilling results, Conquest’s President & CEO, Mr. Terence McKillen, stated:
“The intersection of good grade gold at this depth
on Conquest’s property is extremely encouraging.

The gold mineralization previously encountered by Conquest
in the west-central part of the Alexander Property was
in trenching and shallow drilling.

Goldcorp’s four drill holes extend to approximate vertical
depths of 450 – 570 metres representing the deepest
drilled holes on the Alexander Property to date.
The intersection in hole DS641 confirms gold potential
exists at depth on Conquest’s property.”

Conquest’s Alexander Property at Red Lake is situated adjacent
to Goldcorp’s Red Lake and Campbell gold mines, which
contain historic production and current resources in
excess of 25 million ounces of gold, approximately 1,000
metres east of the No. 1 Shaft headframe and within 400
metres of the Far East Zone at the Red Lake Mine.

Many of the regional structures that have associated gold
mineralization in the area of Goldcorp’s two producing
mines cross on to the Alexander Property.

Conquest has developed a phased exploration strategy for
its Alexander Project to investigate depth extensions
from known surface and near surface gold mineralization
and plans to initiate the first phase of drilling later
this summer.
