BTP Kria Resources Ltd Com Npv

Beartooth Platinum Corporation (TSX VENTURE: BTP) is pleased to announce the final results from its 2008 drilling program at its Stillwater Project, located in South Central Montana, USA.

Three core holes were drilled in the Iron Mountain Target Area (IM) and nine core holes were drilled on the Chrome Mountain Target Area (CM). Part of the Chrome Mountain Target Area is within a joint-venture agreement with Premium Exploration Inc. The properties are adjacent to Stillwater Mining Company's Stillwater Mine, which produces platinum and palladium from its 28 kilometer long, plus or minus 1 meter wide, JM Reef.

The core holes focused on possible continuation of the 15 kilometer long "B" Chromitite Reef, identified by surface geology, soil geochemistry and previous drilling (core hole IM2006-02 intercepted 0.9 meters of 17.425 g/t, combined Gold (Au), Platinum (Pt) and Palladium (Pd) mineralization).

The following is a summary of 2008 Drilling Results at the Stillwater Project:

Beartooth believes that the core drill results show the potential extent of the mineralization associated with the "B" Chromitite horizon.

Update on Business Combination with Kria Resources

Beartooth and Kria Resources Inc. ("Kria") continue to work together to finish preparations of the Beartooth management information circular relating to the proposed business combination of Beartooth and Kria. Beartooth expects to hold the shareholders' meeting in or about the middle of March. The exact date will be announced once it has been established.

The cash position of Beartooth is a significant concern of the company. Given the global financial and economic turmoil, it has been increasingly difficult for early-stage exploration companies to raise required financing. In this context, management of Beartooth believes that a business combination with Kria offers the best opportunity for the company to continue as a going concern. Kria Resources is expected to announce a NI 43-101 compliant mineral resource estimate for the Halfmile Lake and Stratmat property in New Brunswick, Canada. Kria plans to initiate a preliminary economic evaluation (scoping study) on the Halfmile Lake and Stratmat properties in January 2009.
