 Richfield Completes first eight holes on the Blackwater Gold Property.

Quesnel, BC, Canada - September 3, 2009

Richfield Ventures Corp. ("Richfield" or "the Company") is pleased to announce completion of the first eight holes, totaling 1557 metres, on its recently optioned Blackwater-Davidson and Dave properties in the Nechako Plateau. (News Releases dated March 23 and June 02, 2009)

The first two holes, BW 42 and 43 were drilled to their target depths about 300 m in the centre of the Gold Zone. These two vertical holes were designed to test continuity of gold mineralization to depth.

The remainder of the holes in the 15 hole first phase program are designed to test for lateral extensions of mineralization between the previously discovered 'Zones". For a full report on the historical results and the proposals for the current, on going program visit the Blackwater project on the company website at RichfieldVentures.ca

Visual examination of the core recovered to date has indicated zones of argillic (clay) alteration and zones of silicification with varying amounts of diseminated sulphides, principally sphalerite and pyrite.

Core has been logged and sampled in one metre intervals; samples are with Stewart Group Eco-Tech lab for gold assay and multielement analysis. Assay results are expected from the lab about mid-September and will be released shortly after.
