Soho Resources Corp. (TSX VENTURE:SOH) ("Soho" or the "Company") is pleased to
announce that Knight Piesold Ltd. has been retained to conduct geotechnical and
water/waste management design studies for Soho's Tahuehueto Project in Durango,
Mexico. This work is the first step in working towards completing a
pre-feasibility study for the Tahuehueto Project as the Company advances the
project towards a production decision.


Knight Piesold will begin immediately with an initial phase of work that
concentrates on high priority items identified in the Preliminary Economic
Assessment released on October 4, 2010, (the "PEA"). Knight Piesold's studies
will include, a geotechnical assessment of the proposed El Creston open pit,
geotechnical input and assessment to the possible open pit at Cinco de Mayo (not
included in the PEA), plus the investigation of one or more, Mine Development
Concepts ("MDC") where each MDC would be a combination of alternative mine
access points, plant-site locations, waste rock and tailings storage facility
locations and water management concepts, to ultimately arrive at an overall
optimum MDC.

structures traced for up to six kilometers of strike length. Considerable upside
exploration potential remains on the existing explored resource structures both
down dip and along strike, as well as on numerous other unexplored mineralized
structures.
