September 30, 2011

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA - In response to the current market conditions, Concordia Resource Corp. (TSX VENTURE:CCN) ("Concordia" or the "Company"), announces that it intends to focus its resources on the advancement of development stage projects in Burkina Faso, through its proposed acquisition of Swala Resources Inc. ("Swala"), and at the 100% owned Providencia Silver Project in Argentina. As part of a prioritization process the Company has made the decision to suspend drilling on both the Baza copper/gold project in Spain and Albisu gold project in Nevada.

Swala Acquisition

On September 6, 2011 Concordia announced that it had signed a letter of intent to acquire Swala via a share exchange. Swala brings to Concordia an extensive exploration portfolio of gold projects in Burkina Faso, as well as a land package totaling over 12,400 km2 in the countries of Gabon, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Mozambique and Zimbabwe. Additionally, Swala brings a strong management team and a board of directors with extensive expertise in Africa. All projects outside Burkina Faso are subject to joint venture farm-out agreements. The Company and Swala expect to have a definitive agreement in place in respect of the acquisition by November 2011.

In light of the pending acquisition Concordia will reposition its resources to implement an aggressive drill program in Burkina Faso, where Swala owns 100% of the Kerboulé property and is earning up to an 80% joint venture interest on the Guéguéré property. The focus of the proposed drilling program is to generate a NI 43-101 qualified resource on the Kerboulé property while expanding the currently identified mineralization on the Guéguéré property.

Providencia Silver Project, Argentina

Concordia, through its wholly owned South American subsidiary Meryllion Minerals Corporation ("Meryllion"), has received authorization from the Directorate of Mines -- Province of Jujuy to proceed with drilling at the Providencia silver-copper prospect in Northwestern Argentina. A 3,000 to 5,000 m drill program is currently underway with approximately 15 of the designated 50 drill holes already completed. The objectives of the program are to extend known resources in the near surface environment as well as to test for high grade mineralization at depth with an initial target of some 15 to 20 million ounces of silver based upon previous drilling on the property.

"Swala's highly prospective Kerboulé and Guéguéré projects are in early stage development and can be rapidly advanced to a defined resource stage with focused drilling programs. This process is already underway at the Providencia Silver Project. Drilling in Burkina Faso is scheduled to commence by the end of October under the current plan. This refocusing of resources follows our strategy to create greater near-term shareholder value in two of the most prospective geologic and favorable mining environments in the world," stated Edward Flood, CEO of Concordia.

Suspended Drill Programs

Concordia will suspend drilling programs on both the Baza copper/gold project in Spain and Albisu gold project in Nevada. Drilling at Baza will cease upon completion of the current hole. An IP geophysical survey will be conducted at Albisu in the coming month to better define controls and mineralization.
