UNITED STATES


Sparton Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:SRI) (the "Company") reported today the
results of four additional drill holes completed in early April on its West
Hammond Contact ("WHC") property located in northern Ontario. The WHC claim
group is contiguous to the claim holdings of Brett Resources Inc. ("Brett"), and
is located approximately 25 km north of the town of Atikokan. Brett is doing
advanced evaluation of its Hammond Reef deposit which is now reported to contain
6.7 million ounces of gold at a grade of 0.80 g/t gold using a cut off grade of
0.30g/t gold. (See Sparton news releases dated October 26, 2009, December 10,
2009, March 1, 2010, and recent news releases and NI 43-101 Technical Report of
Brett Resources Inc.). 


The Company also reports that is has increased its holdings in the area by
staking approximately 544 hectares of new claims (34 Units) immediately adjacent
to Brett's main claim group.


DRILLING

Four holes totalling approximately 1200 metres in length were completed prior to
spring breakup, in the latest drilling program. All holes were drilled at an
angle of -50 degrees and the average hole length was approximately 300 metres.
One hole (WH10-14) was completed at a length of 317 metres.


Hole WHC10-13 tested the shallow part of the South Silicified Zone ("SSZ")
immediately in front of Hole WHC10-7 and confirmed the low gold values seen in
the trench on this section, with the best intersection being 0.50 g/t gold over
a 2.5 metre core length.


Hole WHC10-14 located 75 metres to the south of holes WHC10-07, 12, 13 tested
the intersections reported previously in those holes (see Sparton news release
dated March 1, 2010) at depth. This hole intersected a 100 metre (core length)
zone of anomalous gold values in altered Marmion Batholith granitic rocks which
included intersections of 1.46 g/t gold over 1.0 metres, 3.48g/t gold over 0.4
metres, 1.32 g/t gold over 1.0 metre, 0.62g/t gold over 1.0 metre and 0.48g/t
gold over 1.0 metres. Semi -continuous gold values between these intersections
ranged from 100-400 ppb gold. One continuous zone from 282-296 metres in this
hole averaged 0.40 g/t gold over a 14 metre core length at a depth of
approximately 225 metres below surface confirming the increase in gold values
with depth seen in Hole WHC10-12 which encountered 0.37 g/t Au over 39.4 meters
including 0.74 g/t Au over 14.8 meters. Deeper drilling on this zone will be
required.


Drill hole (WHC10-15) tested an area of anomalous surface prospecting results
(with values up to 1.92 g/t gold from grab samples) on the west part of the WHC
grid, and returned only low values. The fourth hole, WHC10-16 tested a wide IP
anomaly approximately 2 kilometers north of the SSZ main drilled area. It
intersected a strongly silicified zone of altered Finlayson Volcanic rocks
containing significant amounts of pyrite and minor base metals but returned low
gold values.


Several other untested targets remain on the WHC grid and lines have been
extended to provide additional geophysical coverage with more Induced
Polarization and Magnetic surveys planned for the summer field season.


It is clear from these results that the deeper part of the SSZ contains better
gold values and more consistent mineralization. Future drilling will focus on
deeper testing of this zone.


NEW CLAIM STAKING, SUMMER PROGRAM

As part of its ongoing evaluation program in the Marmion Batholith area the
Company has acquired by staking an additional 34 claim units totalling
approximately 544 hectares contiguous to the WHC claim block. This property also
ties on to Brett Resources claims north and west of Brett's Hammond Reef
deposit. The new claims the West Hammond Extension Group ("WHE") cover several
well documented, strong deformation zones in the Marmion Batholith north and
west of Hammond Reef. These will be prospected in detail during the upcoming
summer field season expected to begin in the third week of May, 2010.


Sparton has only covered about 20% of its land holdings in the Marmion Batholith
area since discovering the SSZ after initiating its exploration programs in
October 2009. The upcoming field work will focus on covering the remainder of
the claim areas and also follow up positive prospecting results associated with
strong alteration zones located in the Clement Lake claims last season which are
located east of Hammond Reef. Work on the WHC and WHE groups will cover a
further 15 kilometers along the contact of the Marmion Batholith and the
Finlayson Volcanic Belt and evaluate the favourable structural zones within the
Marmion Batholith itself. These programs will be directed by Mr. Denis
Villeneuve P.Geol., who has over 4 years experience working in the Marmion
Batholith area. Additional drilling is also planned later this summer to test
deeper parts of the SSZ and any new targets generated by the summer program.


Sparton's domestic and international exploration, development, and evaluation
programs are being carried out under the direct supervision of A. Lee Barker, P.
Eng., P Geol., the Company's President and CEO who is a Qualified Person under
National Instrument 43-101.
