Conquest Amends Agreement With Detour Gold Corporation on Conquest's Properties Adjacent to Detour Lake Gold Project
TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Aug. 10, 2010) -

Conquest Resources Limited -
(TSX VENTURE:CQR) announces that it has amended a previously
executed letter agreement with Detour Gold Corporation
("Detour Gold") pursuant to which Detour Gold will purchase
Conquest's interest in the Aurora Property and will have
an option to acquire a 50% interest in Conquest's
Sunday Lake Property.

Conquest has now entered into a separate agreement with
NVI Mining Ltd. ("NVI"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of
Breakwater Resources Ltd., to purchase the remaining 40%
interest that it does not already own in the Aurora and
Sunday Lake properties located in the Detour Lake area, Ontario
and to purchase the 2% net smelter royalty interest therein
held by NVI.
The consideration for the acquisition from NVI is
$1.0 million to be satisfied through the payment by Conquest
of $500,000 in cash and the issuance, subject to regulatory
approval, of 3,125,000 shares of Conquest.

Under the amended agreement with Detour Gold,
Conquest will convey to Detour Gold, subject to regulatory
and other approvals, a 100% undivided interest in the Aurora
Property free and clear of the 2% net smelter royalty.
The consideration has been amended to a cash consideration of
$2.0 million, rather than $1.0 million, to reflect that at
the time of Detour Gold's acquisition from Conquest the
Aurora Property and the Sunday Lake Property will not be
subject to the 2% net smelter royalty and that Detour Gold
will not be obligated to incur any exploration expenditures
other than the Sunday Lake Expenditures (as defined below).
The consideration will still include the issuance, subject
to regulatory approval, of 100,000 shares of Detour Gold
to Conquest.
In addition, Detour Gold will have an option to acquire a
50% joint venture interest in the Sunday Lake Property by
completing $1.0 million in exploration expenditures on
the Sunday Lake Property (the "Sunday Lake Expenditures")
over the next two years with a minimum of $500,000 prior
to August 31, 2011.
The Aurora Property and the Sunday Lake Property each
remain subject to an interest held by Prism Resources Inc.
equal to 7.5% of the net profits from the properties.

The Sunday Lake Property lies immediately east of
Detour Gold's Detour Lake Project, along the eastern extension
of the Sunday Lake Deformation Zone, in what is believed to be
a prospective area of this relatively under-explored part
of the Abitibi Greenstone Belt.

The Aurora Property lies south of Detour Gold's Detour Lake Project.
Detour Gold is acquiring the Aurora Property to accommodate
the infrastructure requirements for the development of its
Detour Lake mine.

COMMENT

"We are very pleased to have reached an agreement with Breakwater and a revised agreement with Detour Gold which will be beneficial for all parties," said Terence McKillen, President and Chief Executive of Conquest.
"The amended agreement will result in a transaction value
to Conquest of approximately $4 million of which $1 million
will offset the acquisition by Conquest from Breakwater of
the 40% interest in the properties that it did not previously
own as well as the purchase of the outstanding royalty interest.
In addition, as part of the agreement, Detour Gold will expend
a minimum of $1 million on the Sunday Lake Property over a
two year period with a minimum of $500,000 per year.

Detour Gold's geological knowledge and expertise in the area
will be invaluable in the future exploration on
the Sunday Lake Property," added Mr. McKillen.
