KENSINGTON RESOURCES LTD. ANNOUNCES
PROGRESS ON 2005 DRILLING PROGRAM
Vancouver, B.C., Monday, June 13, 2005 –Kensington Resources Ltd. (the “Company”)announces an update on drilling of high interest targets in the south Fort à la Corne cluster. A total of 38 HQ coreholes (diameter of 2.5 inches or 63.5 mm) with intersections totaling 2,920.9 metres have been completed on eight kimberlite bodies including the western part of the Star Kimberlite. A minimum of 130 HQ coreholes are planned during the 2005 program which is budgeted at CDN $25.6 million.
Drilling on the western portion of the Star Kimberlite was one of the top priority targets in the 2005 drill program.
“We are pleased to confirm evidence of thick intervals ofEarly Joli Fou kimberlite in three of the coreholes,” says Robert McCallum, President and CEO Kensington Resources Ltd. “We expect that a substantial amount of Star Kimberlite exists on Joint Venture land. TheEarly Joli Fou provided successful grade and value results for Shore Gold, and we want to determine whether the Joint Venture portion offers the same potential economic opportunities.”
Fifteen coreholes have been planned for the Star Kimberlite to investigate the westward extent of prospectiveEarly Joli Fou high-grade kimberlite that extends onto the Joint Venture boundary. Eight coreholes have been completed with a combined total intersection of 394.9 metres of kimberlite from 1,679.0 metres of drilling. Individual intersections of kimberlite range from 8.8 to 118.95 metres. The identification ofEarly Joli Fou kimberlite was based on comparison of core to detailed kimberlite descriptions available in public domain assessment reports (Saskatchewan Industry and Resources) and to data from Shore Gold Inc. technical reports on SEDAR.
Drilling continues on the property with three Boart-Longyear LF-70 core rigs operating on 24 hour schedules. Table One shows a summary of drilling results to date for all of the kimberlite bodies investigated this year.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION TO JUNE 13, 2005 NEWS RELEASE
Kensington Resources Ltd. (the “Company”)reports an update on drilling progress of high interest targets in the south Fort à la Corne cluster as the Advanced Exploration and Evaluation Plan (AE&E) program proceeds through its first phase. A total of 38 HQ coreholes (diameter of 2.5 inches or 63.5 mm) with intersections totalling 2,920.9 metres have been completed on eight kimberlite bodies including the western part of the Star Kimberlite. Drilling continues at an even pace on the property with three Boart-Longyear LF-70 core rigs operating on 24 hour schedules. Methodical geotechnical measurements are conducted on each core including magnetic susceptibility, rock competence, core quality, and density of natural fractures. Detailed core logging is in progress by De Beers’ experts and preparations for s labbing the core and sampling for diamond recovery are underway in the Joint Venture warehouse located in Saskatoon. The objective of this approach is to identify sufficient higher-grade kimberlite to move forward with delineation drilling and minibulk sampling in the subsequent phases of the AE&E Plan.
On the Star Kimberlite, fifteen coreholes have been planned to investigate the westward extent of prospectiveEarly Joli Fou high-grade kimberlite that was recently the subject of a successful 25,000-tonne bulk sampling program by Shore Gold Inc. Eight coreholes have been completed with a combined intersection of 394.9 metres of kimberlite from 1,679.0 metres of drilling. Individual intersections of kimberlite range from 8.8 to 118.95 metres. Table One shows a summary of drilling results to date.
Thicker intervals of the prospectiveEarly Joli Fou kimberlite unit were identified in three of the drillholes. These were identified based on comparison of core to detailed kimberlite descriptions available in public domain assessment reports (Saskatchewan Industry and Resources) and to data from Shore Gold Inc. technical reports on SEDAR. The greatest interval of this unit recovered thus far by JV operator, De Beers Canada Inc., is some 77 metres thick, although at least 5 of the remaining 6-7 coreholes planned for this body are targeted in the area immediately west of Shore Gold’s bulk sample shaft. These holes will be drilled later this summer once access conditions improve.

Five coreholes were completed on Kimberlite 134 as part of the westward extending pattern of holes to map the relationship of the Star Kimberlite to the geology and diamond content of Kimberlite 134. A total of 474.4 metres of kimberlite was intersected in 1,134 metres of drilling with individual kimberlite intervals ranging from 40.7 to 145.1 metres. Finer grained kimberlite was encountered in four of the boreholes while a coarser, more prospective unit was logged in the northern vent-proximal hole.
Drilling on adjoined high-priority kimberlites targets 219 and 145 is nearly complete. Ten of eleven coreholes were completed on Kimberlite 145 with a combined kimberlite intersection of 974.9 metres from 2,283.0 metres drilled. Kimberlite intersections ranged from 41.7 to 176.5 metres with five of the holes in excess of 100 metres. Ten of twelve coreholes were completed on Kimberlite 219 with a combined kimberlite intersection of 812.9 metres from 2,219.6 metres drilled. Kimberlite intersections ranged from 22.9 to 208.1 metres in thickness, although the remaining drillholes are targeted on the thicker part of the body based on modeling of geophysical data. The 22.9 metre interval of kimberlite was encountered in a drillhole targeted between the two bodies, but east of a narrow ridge of kimberlite that bridges the kimberlites with thicknesses ranging from ~70 to 140 metres.
Core drilling is currently in progress on Kimberlite Bodies 133 and 119, which were elevated in the order of priority due to field logistics and opportunities to decrease costs. In addition, 5 sonic drillholes were completed in overburden for hydrogeological (ground water) testing including methodical packer testing, and installation of piezometers (a device that measures groundwater levels) on Kimberlite Body 140 and close to body 150. Two of these holes were extended to depths of 249.0 metres using a core rig for testing of deeper hydrogeological intervals.
Downhole geophysics will be conducted on most or all of the kimberlite targets. This type of survey provides information on the physical characteristics of the kimberlites as well as providing supplemental data to refine the placement of boundaries between significant kimberlite units. First pass logging was completed on suitable holes remaining from the 2004 program and all eight of the completed coreholes on the Star Kimberlite have had full downhole surveys.
Other conceptual studies that are included in the current AE&E Plan are progressing under the joint management of De Beers Canada Inc. and their alliance partner, AMEC. Several of these investigations include: environmental baseline studies and heritage resource impact assessments, metallurgical studies based on geotechnical data, updating of conceptual studies and mining plans, ongoing development of mining, waste management and infrastructure concepts and development of government liaison strategies. Kensington staff members lead several of these efforts and contribute substantially to the latter three points of this list.
The 2005 program forms part of a three and a half year AE&E program to evaluate a number of priority kimberlites in the southern part of the claims and to map a projected target of 70 million carats in-ground from several high-grade zones to a level of Inferred Resource. CDN $25.6 million will cover the cost for the first phase of the AE&E program, which will mainly consist of geological drilling and microdiamond analysis to determine the internal geology and grades of the targeted kimberlites. The Joint Venture partners have planned a minimum of 130 HQ coreholes during the 2005 program that will be distributed over the 14 bodies on individual grids of approximately 150-200 metres. Evaluation and planning for a decision on minibulk sampling during 2005 is in progress.
The ongoing drilling activity contributes valuable data towards the delineation of higher-grade zones. This is the focus of the current phase AE&E Plan.
