GREAT NEWS!!

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - May 19, 2011) - ECU Silver Mining Inc. (TSX:ECU - News) is pleased to report that the high-performance deep diamond drill has reached the high grade massive sulphide zone at its Velardena Property.

As previously reported, the high-performance drill was commissioned to further test the deep seated massive sulphides at a depth of approximately 800 meters below level 18 to confirm the extensions of the high grade intercepts that were reported in drill hole SJ-18-21.

The drill has begun coring into the target zone and we anticipate having results shortly.

The Company also advises that it plans to file its March 31, 2011 Consolidated Interim Financial Statements and Management Discussion and Analysis on June 14, 2011. The filings for the first quarter of 2011 will contain the first set of financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). To assist companies in making the transition from Canadian generally accepted accounting principles to IFRS, Canadian securities regulators have extended the normal filing deadlines for the first quarter of 2011.

Mr. Michel Roy, P. Geo., a "qualified person" within the meaning of NI 43-101, prepared the technical information disclosed in this news release.
