STRATHMORE MINERALS CORP. ("Strathmore" or the "Company") (TSX:STM)(OTCQX:STHJF)
is pleased to announce that the Roca Honda Resources LLC ("RHR") mine permit
application technical review process and preparation of the Environmental Impact
Statement ("EIS"), currently ongoing, remains on schedule. An agreement between
RHR, the United States Forest Service ("USFS") and Mangi Environmental Group
("Mangi"), for a definitive schedule that commits to completing the EIS by
December 2012, was recently signed by all three parties. A decision regarding
the mine permit is expected shortly thereafter. In addition, RHR is developing
the baseline data and is completing the engineering design for its associated
mill project. A mill license application to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission
("NRC") is expected to be submitted in mid-2012.

The following highlights the ongoing mine permitting and mill licensing
activities in 2011: 


RHR Mine Permit 



--  The USFS and its contractor, Mangi, continue to work on the RHR EIS,
    which began in late 2010. The cultural resources impacts evaluation
    regarding archaeological sites within the project area is underway. The
    USFS has determined that additional testing is required at 10 of the 193
    archaeological sites inventoried to further evaluate their extent and
    determine eligibility for listing on the National Register. This field
    testing was initiated in September and will be completed before the end
    of the year. The USFS has determined that the remaining archaeological
    sites can be adequately protected by establishing separation from mining
    related activities and facilities, and by identifying sites requiring
    fencing for protection.  

--  The mine dewatering permit application was submitted to the Office of
    the New Mexico State Engineer ("OSE") in September. RHR has developed a
    mine water management program acceptable to the OSE that will provide
    the discharged water as a source of irrigation for local ranches and
    other useful purposes, thereby addressing concerns over the disposition
    of this water resource.  

--  RHR has completed and submitted its 60% design of the mine water
    treatment plant to the New Mexico Environment Department ("NMED") for
    its review and approval. RHR anticipates completing the 90% design by
    year end, pending results of NMED's review. 

--  RHR completed its detailed Reclamation Plan and submitted it to the New
    Mexico Mining and Minerals Division ("MMD") in August. 



Strathmore continues to work closely with state and federal agencies, and
maintains an ongoing dialogue with members of the public, and interest groups.
Progress continues with the technical review process, which will ultimately lead
to the completion of the Environmental Impact Statement by December 2012.


Pena Ranch Mill Site 



--  Regional water wells have been inventoried and the quarterly baseline
    sampling and analysis program has been initiated. The collection of
    other pertinent data regarding the condition of the wells continued
    throughout the summer months. Water sampling began in August. The soils
    survey report was completed, and the air quality monitoring program was
    fully established. Installation of on-site groundwater monitor wells
    (approved by the OSE) was completed in early October. 

--  The Sampling and Analysis Plan for the various environmental media has
    been prepared. Preliminary draft Environmental and Technical Analysis
    Reports are in preparation. 

--  Field work required to develop baseline data requirements in support of
    the mill license application is continuing. Vegetation sampling for
    radiological analysis is underway, and arrangements for obtaining tissue
    samples from cattle and game species for radiological analysis have been
    scheduled in the weeks ahead. A rigorous surface water hydrology
    analysis is being performed. 

--  The 30% design of the tailings cells, evaporation pond, drainage
    collection and protection, in addition to other mill surface facilities,
    is underway. 

--  Preliminary mill cost estimates and several "toll milling" scenarios
    have been prepared and submitted to the RHR Management Committee for
    review. 



At the Pena Ranch Mill Site, preparation of the NRC mill license application
will continue throughout the remainder of the year and into 2012, with the goal
of submitting an application by mid-2012. A meeting with the NRC is planned for
November to discuss RHR's licensing activities in advance of the application
submission.
