VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - July 21, 2010) - International Samuel Exploration Corp. (TSX VENTURE:ISS)(PINK SHEETS:ISSFF) ("Company") is pleased to announce it has commenced a 440 line kilometre helicopter-borne DIGHEM electromagnetic (EM) geophysical survey by Fugro Airborne of Mississauga, on its recently acquired Blackwater West property. This survey was commissioned to enhance the Government's widely spaced regional magnetometer survey that identified a geophysical anomaly on the property.
Conrad Swanson President of International Samuel states, "The Black Water West is a significant project for the Company. This property borders Richfield Ventures Corp. property who are currently undertaking a 25,000 meter drill program. Not only are we commencing operations on this project, we are also awaiting on a drill permit to be issued on the Rasp copper-gold property in Manitoba. This will give Samuel two projects simultaneously being worked on. Samuel has only 14 million shares outstanding and any success on either project could add significant growth potential to Samuel."
