SEYMOUR VENTURES ANNOUNCES LAUNCH OF 2011 EXPLORATION PROGRAM ON THE MOUNT BISSON AND XENO RARE EARTH PROPERTIES

Seymour Ventures Corp.'s wholly owned subsidiary Rare Earth Industries Ltd. (REI) has commenced the exploration work program on the Mt. Bisson and Xeno rare earth properties, located in the Omineca mining division, approximately 50 kilometres northwest of Mackenzie in central British Columbia. REI has the right to earn a 60-per-cent interest in the properties from Paget Minerals by spending $1.05-million over three years to develop the property, including $350,000 in 2011.

The initial discovery of rare earth element mineralization on the Mount Bisson property was made by Halleran in 1986 with total rare earth element (TREE) contents as high as 13.5 weighted per cent in grab samples from the Laura occurrence. Recent exploration conducted on the property by Paget Minerals, from 2007 to 2010, has confirmed the historical exploration, revealing the widespread dissemination of various rare-earth-bearing minerals including allanite, titanite, apatite and rare-earth-element-bearing epidote.

Seymour Ventures starts exploration at Phantom, Henry

SEYMOUR VENTURES SUBSIDIARY RARE EARTH INDUSTRIES BEGINS WORK ON FORMER US TANTALUM PRODUCTION PROPERTY; APPOINTS CRITICAL METALS EXPERT JAMES HEDRICK TO ADVISORY BOARD

Seymour Ventures Corp.'s wholly owned subsidiary Rare Earth Industries Ltd. has started work on its recently acquired Phantom pegmatite project in Fremont county, Colorado, a former producer of tantalum and beryllium, as well as on the Henry pegmatite, also in Fremont county. The two sites are located approximately 45 miles apart, connected by Highway 50. Please see the company's announcements on May 5 and May 16, 2011, for details of these acquisitions. The company also wishes to announce the appointment of critical metals specialist, James Hedrick, to the company's advisory board. For over 30 years, Mr. Hedrick was the commodity specialist for the United States Geological Survey for a number of critical materials, including rare earth elements.

The Phantom pegmatite produced small commercial quantities of tantalite and beryl during 1962. REI is undertaking to assess and quantify the potential for tantalum, niobium, beryllium, lithium and other critical materials at the property. The Henry pegmatite formerly produced potash feldspar beginning in 1939. The Henry pegmatite has been classified as a euxenite-type pegmatite, which is typically rich in heavy rare earth elements (HREE). A suite of HREE-enriched minerals have also been discovered throughout the site, as well as minerals rich in zirconium, hafnium, tantalum and niobium. REI is undertaking to assess and quantify the rare earths and rare metals potential at these properties.

Though the company believes that mining only represents a small portion of the overall value chain in rare earths and rare metals, raw material supply is still an essential ingredient. The United States in particular does not participate in many of these value chains and has not done so for decades. As a result, the U.S. is forced to import 100 per cent of its rare earth elements, 100 per cent of its tantalum, 100 per cent of its niobium and over 50 per cent of its lithium. These critical materials are essential in a multitude of industries and consumer products, and in most cases, no suitable replacements exist. Tantalum is essential for the production of capacitors. Niobium is essential for superalloys and high-strength steel used in the aerospace and energy industries. Rare earth elements are essential for the production of permanent magnets used in motors and industrial turbines. Lithium has become the de facto material of choice for rechargeable battery technology globally.

By acquiring and developing mineral properties which meet the company's specific criteria for potential raw materials supplies -- namely historical production, very low cost of entry, certain rare earths and rare metals mineralogies, or existing resource estimates -- REI strives to achieve this small though essential part of the value chain more quickly and more efficiently than its peers. Raw material supplies are meant to fit into the company's corporate objective of developing complete rare earths and rare metals supply chains -- from discovery of resources through to original-equipment-manufacturer product-component manufacture and everything in between.

James Hedrick, the newest addition to REI's advisory board, will advise the company on various aspects of its projects in the U.S. and elsewhere, helping to determine economic and technical viability, guiding development, and advising on downstream appropriateness of raw materials.

Mr. Hedrick recently retired from his position as the rare earth commodity specialist for the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) after 31 years of service. Mr. Hedrick has studied all aspects of the rare earth elements sector for the United States government. His responsibilities included the preparation of the USGS's annual mineral commodity surveys and the minerals yearbooks for rare earth elements zirconium, hafnium thorium and mica. Prior to the USGS, Mr. Hedrick worked with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (civilian) and the U.S. Bureau of Mines. Within those roles he has researched deposits, prepared cost feasibility studies and reviewed environmental impact statements. He has also published over 300 articles and professional papers on mineral commodities. Mr. Hedrick is an honours graduate of James Madison University with BSc degrees in geology and general science and did graduate study at North Carolina State University.

Alastair Neill, president of Seymour Ventures, stated: "The appointment of Jim signifies REI's commitment to working with industry-leading personnel. Jim's vast experience with the geoscience and market dynamics of rare earths and other critical metals will greatly benefit the advancement of REI's recently acquired projects in Colorado, as well as all its other downstream plans for the future."

Seymour Ventures to Review Organic Rare Earths Processing Technology; Adds Solvent Extraction Expert Dr. Sinha to Advisory Board

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - June 20, 2011) - Seymour Ventures Corp.'s (the "Company" or "Seymour Ventures") (TSX VENTURE:SEY)(FRANKFURT:3CK1)(WKN:A1C08G) wholly owned subsidiary, Rare Earth Industries Ltd (REI), announced today that it has entered into an agreement to perform an exclusive due diligence review for the potential acquisition of environmentally-sensitive methods of solvent extraction for processing of rare earths.

Dr. Sinha's research uses environmentally-friendly methods to process and separate rare earth elements from one another. This approach is different from the global industry standard use of hydrochloric acid or nitric acid. Dr. Sinha's formula is expected to be substantially more biodegradable than the industry standard rare earth reagents, as well as more efficient than the industry standard process. Former US rare earth commodity specialist for the U.S. Geological Survey and REI Advisory Board member, James Hedrick, noted, "Dr. Sinha is probably one of the most important solvent extraction experts today." Dr. Sinha's research and technology breakthroughs in the use of organic solvents could have a major impact on rare earths processing, in terms of efficiency, costs and sustainability.

REI president Alastair Neill, who has more than 15 years of rare earth industry experience both inside and outside of China suggests, "As a company, we remain committed to more cost-effective means to process materials. Based on our understanding of Dr. Sinha's process, the number of steps necessary for separation should be reduced." The Company's goal is to simplify, and reduce environmental impact of, processing and separations of rare earths by using the technology.

Pursuant to the agreement, REI has entered into an exclusive due diligence period, during which time the Company will investigate the potential of applying Dr. Sinha's patentable technology in a commercial setting. Upon successful due diligence, REI will have an option to propose mutually agreeable terms to purchase Dr. Sinha's technology, with an objective of commercializing a unique process for the environmentally-friendly separations of rare earths on an industrial scale. There are, however, no assurances that the Company's due diligence review will be satisfactory or that the Company will be able to successfully negotiate an agreement to acquire the technology.

In connection with the agreement, the Company has added Dr. Shyama (Sam) P. Sinha, PhD to REI's Advisory Board to further its goal of becoming a low-cost processor of rare earths and rare metals.

Dr. Sam Sinha has a Masters in Chemistry from Bucknell University, Pa, and a PhD in Chemistry from the University of Leeds, England. His PhD thesis is a study of the solvent extraction of rare earths. He has written two books on the rare earths and some 90 original research papers. Dr. Sinha directed a NATO Advanced Studies Institute on the "Systematics and the Properties of the Lanthanides". Dr. Sinha has been an invited lecturer in many national and international symposia.
