Vancouver BC ... November, 17, 2011 ... Aben Resources Ltd., ABN/TSXV, is pleased to announce it has made a significant new gold discovery in the Yukon on its 100% owned, 11,268 acre Justin Project.
The Company recently completed a ten hole diamond drill program on the Justin Gold Project located in the southeast Yukon. Aben has released the first drill hole results received from its 2011 program which includes 60.00 metres of 1.19 g/t gold in the never before drill-tested POW Zone. Assay results are still pending for the other nine holes.

Highlights:
Aben makes a new greenfield gold discovery on its Justin Project in the Yukon.
Drill results from first received hole JN11009 include 60.00 metres of 1.19 g/t gold in the POW Zone starting at a vertical depth of 113 metres.
Intercept observed in hole JN11009 was dominated by massive skarn-style replacement mineralization, which has been overprinted by quartz-calcite stock work veining. Both the skarn-style and vein-style mineralization carried gold.
The geochemical signature of the mineralized zone supports an Intrusion Related Gold model.
Gold mineralization is open in all directions at the POW Zone.
Positive surface sampling results from 2010 are located 400 metres to the east of discovery hole JN11009.
An airborne geophysical survey outlined an inferred buried intrusive stock, represented by a pronounced magnetic low, which lies between the POW Zone and the Main Zone located 2.4 kilometres to the south.
As a result of this new gold discovery on the Justin Project, Aben has acquired 7,058 additional acres around the original property border which will facilitate an aggressive drill program next season.
Assay results pending for nine additional holes on four mineralized zones throughout the Justin Project.
