DOT Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE: DOT) ("DOT" or the "Corporation") announces that an updated independent National Instrument ("NI") 43-101 compliant mineral resource estimation ("Mineral Resource Estimate") has been filed on the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval ("SEDAR") in respect of DOT's 100% owned copper porphyry property (the "Property") located 17 kilometres south of the Highland Valley copper porphyry district in Central British Columbia, Canada.

The report entitled, "Technical Report On A Diamond Drill Program And Mineral Resource Estimate For DOT Resources Ltd's Dot Property" (the "Aurora Report"), dated November 30, 2010, was prepared by Aurora Geosciences Limited ("Aurora") and complies with NI 43-101 and the Canadian Institute of Mining ("CIM") standards for reporting mineral resources (see DOT News Release dated December 1, 2010). A full copy of the Aurora Report can be obtained directly from DOT, or the Corporation's website at www.dotresourcesltd.com, or the Corporation's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

Following are a number of highlights of the Aurora Report:


--  at a 0.20% copper cut-off, the estimated indicated resource was 5.33
    million tonnes grading 0.45% copper, 3.28 g/t silver, 0.05 g/t gold and
    0.006% molybdenum representing a 19% increase relative to the previous
    NI 43-101 Mineral Resource dated June 22, 2009), and
--  at a 0.20% copper cut-off, the estimated inferred resource was 4.28
    million tonnes grading 0.46% copper, 1.99 g/t silver, 0.02 g/t gold and
    0.004% molybdenum representing a 79% increase relative to the previous
    NI 43-101 Mineral Resource dated June 22, 2009), and
--  the five zones of mineralization included in the resource estimate are
    open along strike and down dip.

The Aurora Report makes various recommendations for further exploration of the Property, including trenching, metallurgical testing on the sulphide mineralization, geophysical surveying by Induced Polarization ("IP") of a large portion of the property and further diamond drilling to better understand the IP anomalies and to determine the extent of mineralized zones located to date.

These recommendations are currently being reviewed with the objective of incorporating them into a 2011 exploration program. That program will be announced once finalized.

John J. Komarnicki, Chairman and CEO of DOT stated, "Management is very encouraged with the exploration potential revealed in the Dot Property to date. The significant increase in resources was achieved with a limited amount of diamond drilling indicating the substantial potential of the property. Our 2011 exploration program will focus on expanding the resource base through further geophysical exploration and diamond drilling. We look forward to proceeding with the next phase of exploration activities by the third quarter of 2011".

CAUTIONARY NOTE CONCERNING RESERVE AND RESOURCE ESTIMATES

This news release and other information released by DOT uses the terms "resources", "indicated resources" and "inferred resources". United States investors are advised that, while such terms are recognized and required by Canadian securities laws, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") does not recognize them. Under United States standards, mineralization may not be classified as a "reserve" unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time a reserve determination is made. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.

United States investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of Indicated resources will ever be converted into reserves. Inferred resources are in addition to Indicated resources. Inferred resources have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to whether they can be mined legally or economically. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. United States investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an inferred resource exist, or that it can be mined economically.

NI 43-101 is a national instrument developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators, which established standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects. Unless otherwise indicated, all resource estimates contained in this press release or released by DOT in the future, have been or will be prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 and the CIM and Petroleum Classification System. The requirements of NI 43-101 are not the same as those of the SEC.
