La Quinta Resources Identifies Additional Targets at Easter Project

(TSX VENTURE:LAQ)(FRANKFURT:LQK) ("La Quinta"), has identified additional
exploration targets at its Easter project situated in SE Nevada in the Delamar
Caldera. The targets are extensions of the West Vein trenching target. They were
identified from interpretation of geologic structures and alteration related to
mineralization observed on aerial photographs and satellite imagery. The "West
Vein Extension Targets" comprise both a westerly 1,000 ft (0.3 km) extension of
the West Vein, and its termination into a radially fractured area approximately
1,000 ft (0.3 km) in diameter, hosted in volcanic tuffs. Radial patterns such as
this are typical to plutons that have intruded their overlying volcanic pile.
The typical resulting contact area is fractured heavily, and forms a locus for
deposition of veins and mineralization over hundreds of vertical feet. The Knob
Hill mine in the Republic district of NE Washington State is an example of such
a system.

Reconnaissance level sampling of the West Vein during Fall 2010 fieldwork
identified banded quartz-adularia veining that contained 3.5 g/t gold (0.1
oz/st) and 21 g/t silver (0.6 oz/st) at surface. The West Vein Extension targets
are anticipated to contain similar mineralization, and will be targeted for
exploration during the 2011 field season. The information contained in this news
release has been reviewed, approved and deemed relevant by Walter Martin,
(President of the Company) C.P.G., a qualified person as defined under National
Instrument 43-101.


About La Quinta Resources Corporation

La Quinta is a junior precious metals exploration company actively seeking
mineral opportunities for the benefit of our stakeholders. Currently the Company
is focused on exploring for gold and silver on its Easter Project and Black Jack
properties in Nevada. The Easter Project is underlain by an epithermal
quartz-adularia vein stockwork system hosted within Tertiary volcanic rocks of
the Caliente Caldron Complex of southeastern Nevada. Numerous drill programs
were conducted over the past 27 years by several operators. The resultant 121
holes and five adits were used to outline a 43-101 compliant resource of 2.6
million tons at 1.3 g/t gold (0.038 oz/t) and 14 g/t silver (0.4 oz/t) within an
area of gold mineralization with a strike length of at least 6,450 feet (1,966
m) and drill-defined widths up to 90 feet (27.4 m). Significant prior intercepts
include up to 0.194 oz. Au / ton over 90 feet (6.6 g/t over 27.4m true
thickness) (including 0.549 oz. Au / ton over 15 feet (18.8 g/t over 4.5m)) and
0.084 oz. / ton over 110 feet (including 0.534 oz. Au / ton over 5 feet) (2.88
g/t over 33.5 m w/internal 18.3 g/t in 1.52 m). The Black Jack property, an
early-stage exploration target in NE Nevada, consists of old mine workings that
contain silver- gold-base metals veins hosted in Ordovician limestones that
overlie nearby Cambrian shale. No resource has been identified on this property.
