RSM Has Received First Shipment of Gold Dore' From Concentrate Shipped to the Offsite Cyanide Treatment Facility

ROYAL STANDARD MINERALS INC. (TSX VENTURE:RSM)(OTCBB:RYSMF) ("RSM") - RSM has
received the results of the first shipment of gold dore' from the latest gold
concentrate shipped in early July to the offsite cyanide treatment facility. The
offsite facility received and processed 2 tons of concentrate producing 149.01
ounces of gold dore' as part of an initial shipment to determine the
effectiveness of the process of preparation of concentrates at Goldwedge.
According to Roland M. Larsen, Qualified Person who has read and approved this
press release, "we are pleased with the results of this first shipment and look
forward to continued increases in the volume and grade of the concentrates to be
shipped to the treatment facility going forward."


Plans are to continue to increase the number of concentrate shipments and the
concentrate grade with each successive shipment. Initially, the Company will
attempt to ship at least one shipment per month for processing. Our target
concentrate shipment grade is 500 ounces per ton, we are currently producing
approximately 100 ounces per ton of gold concentrate. The next shipment is
expected to contain between 100-150 ounces of gold concentrate. Continued
improvements in feed grade will result in significant improvements to the
concentrate grade. Increases in the plant throughput from the current 100-150
tons in a 10 hour shift is expected to double in the near future. The feed has
been slowed down to help insure that the ball mills are producing an acceptable
product to the concentrators as part of an effort to keep the gold recoveries
from the gravity circuit in the 70% range.


Cyanide testing of the gold concentrates is ongoing and are yielding very
positive results, indicating gold recoveries in the mid 90% range with very low
cyanide consumption. A preliminary flow chart and plant design of a closed
circuit system has been completed and a report is forthcoming.


The gold feed grade is expected to improve, currently the Company is mining
higher grade material within the upper portion of the underground development,
in conjunction with continued decline construction. The dewatering program is
proceeding at a slower rate than was anticipated, this has slowed the decline
development. The lower most crosscut is currently under construction, this
effort is targeted to intersect one of the better gold zones on the property.
This drifting is about 50% of the way to the target.


Mining of the higher grade gold bearing material is concentrated within the
southern "F" crosscut , the "H" crosscut and the "B" crosscut. The mine grades
of this material have been carrying a head grade that ranges from 0.1-0.20 opt
as current feed to the plant.


The drilling crew has been on vacation for some time and is expected to commence
drilling underground in September at Goldwedge.
