VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA–(Marketwire – Nov. 18, 2011) – Huldra Silver Inc. (TSX VENTURE:HDA) (the “Company” or “Huldra“) today is pleased to provide the initial results from the 2011 exploration program at Treasure Mountain. The results of assays from the first four holes received included 592.92 grams per tonne Ag, 4.28% Pb, 2.47% Zn and 5.80% Mn in hole TM11-9 that intersected the vein structure below the Level 1 drift, approximately 80 metres east of the Level 2 drift.

Summary of significant drill results (lengths are not considered true width):

			Length	Ag	Pb	Zn	Ag	Mn
Hole #	From	To	(m)	(ozs/ton)	(%)	(%)	(g/tonne)	(%)
TM11-6	25.25	25.45	0.20	33.75	8.99	0.46	1050	4.04
TM11-7	27.53	27.73	0.20	19.90	6.65	3.53	619.0	5.67
TM11-9	65.67	68.78	3.11	17.38	4.28	2.47	592.9	5.80
TM11-10	41.90	42.25	0.35	0.01	16.58	3.30	0.50	2.85

51 diamond drill holes were drilled over a total length of 5,073 metres on the main mine development, with the objective of further defining resources on the upper 150 metres of the mine.

Jensen Portal

The Jensen Portal is 400 metres west of the current underground workings. Surface sampling was conducted on vein exposures uncovered during the road rehabilitation program. 10 NQ sized diamond drill holes were completed to test for strike on the structures. The area has had limited modern exploration conducted on it and any information is prior to the implementation of National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101“). The veins were historically reported being brecciated with Ag, Pb, and Zn and covered by a diorite cap. The location of the small underground workings is coincident with two intersecting faults. A drill program is being designed to follow up on historical results.

JK Vein

The JK vein was discovered during a trenching program late in the 2010 exploration program. Two shallow holes were drilled on the western end of the structure. However, the material was partially oxidized close to surface. 8 NQ sized holes over a total length of approx 890 metres were drilled in 2011 with results still pending.

D-Vein

The following results were from surface chip samples taken from the D-vein:

	Width	Ag	PB	ZN	Ag	Mn
Sample#	(m)	(ozs/ton)	(%)	(%)	(g/tonne)	(%)
DV-1	1.2	0.18	0.02	0.06	5.8	0.72
DV-2	0.5	3.34	0.35	0.29	104	2.68
DV-3	0.6	19.54	7.66	0.89	608	5.71
DV-4	0.18	6.81	2.46	0.09	212	5.37
DV-5	0.38	8.41	0.3	2.47	261	8.63
DV-6	0.4	29.77	9.37	7.93	926	4.8
DV-7	0.3	30.70	12.85	1.08	955	11.42
DV-8	0.33	47.51	33.65	0.78	1478	3.71

The D-vein was previously uncovered 20 metres into the hanging wall of the open cut at the top of Treasure Mountain. However, the surface expression was re-exposed during mechanical scaling. 8 samples were taken across the structure over a total length of 107 metres. The D -vein is not included in the current NI 43-101 resource estimate.

Underground Exploration

Underground sampling is progressing with new samplings from the existing drifts on Level 1 and Level 2 as well as the underground raises. There are 3 complete raises being sampled from Level 1 of the mine to the surface as well as 3 partial raises from Level 1. There are 3 additional raises from Level 2 that are also being sampled. Only samples from one raise between Level 1 and the surface were included in the current 43-101 resource estimate.

The current underground development consists of 2,750 metres of drifts and raises on 4 levels. The total vein indicated resource, estimated at 11.02 ounces silver per tonne (10.0 oz silver per ton) cut -off grade, is reported as 33,000 tonnes with 26.68 ounces silver per tonne, 4.16% lead and 3.80% zinc, containing 880,000 ounces silver, 3,030,000 lbs. lead and 2,760,000 lbs. zinc. Total vein inferred resource, estimated at the same cut-off grade (11.02 ounces silver per tonne) is reported as 120,000 tonnes with 29.76 ounces silver per tonne, 2.79% lead and 4.36% zinc, containing 3,580,000 ounces silver, 7,370,000 lbs. lead and 11,540,000 lbs. zinc.

Geochemical Testing

The Company conducted a geochemical sampling program consisting of 671 samples focusing on two primary targets the MB Zone and the Camp Zone. The MB Zone is approximately 800 metres northwest of the current mine workings. Surface samples were taken from an exposed area of fractured argillite in 2010 and assays were reported as high as 9,221g/t Ag (Aug. 25, 2010 press release). The Camp Zone is in an area where a geochemical testing program conducted in 1996 identified a large soil anomaly below the Jensen Portal, near the base of the mountain that was followed up with one drill hole that did not penetrate the overburden and a second drill hole that may have missed the target. Results from the soil program will be compiled and released as soon as they are received from the laboratory.

Laboratory Procedures and Quality Assurance

Drill core is logged by a geologist and cut at predetermined intervals using a diamond saw. One half of the sample is archived on site and the other half is trucked to Acme Analytical Laboratories Ltd’s facility in Vancouver, BC, where the sample is crushed, split and pulverized to -200 mesh. A 0.5 gram portion of the pulp is then digested in hot aqua regia and analyzed for 31 elements by ICP MS method. Over limits for Ag is by fire assay with gravimetric finish, and for Pb, Zn and Mn by multi -acid digestion and ICP ES finish.

Certified standard reference material (“SRM“), including core duplicates and blanks, have been inserted into each sample shipment at a frequency of approximately one SRM per ten samples.
