IBC Advanced Alloys Signs Drilling Contract for 2011 Utah Drill Program

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Sept. 27, 2011) - IBC Advanced Alloys Corp. (TSX VENTURE:IB)(OTCQX:IAALF) ("IBC" or the "Company") has signed a contract with Layne Christensen Drilling, of Chandler, AZ, to perform a first phase drilling program on the Company's Juab County fluorite-bertrandite project located in western Utah. Drilling is scheduled to start with a single drill rig in the fourth week of September 2011 pending rig mobilization.

The drilling program will consist of up to 35 holes totalling as much as 5,250 metres of reverse circulation drilling to test target zones in the volcanic tuff and in the underlying Bell Hill Dolomite unit in the claim area immediately south of the Starvation Canyon Wash. These holes will test the presence and concentration of fluorite-bertrandite replacement of dolomite fragments as in the nearby Materion (formerly Brush-Wellman) Spor Mountain mine pits and will penetrate the volcanic tuff layer to test the underlying Bell Hill Dolomite. The projected cost of the planned program is $1.0 million.

As previously disclosed, IBC recently received permit approval from the U.S. Bureau of Land Management and the Utah Division of Oil, Gas and Mining to commence this drill program in Juab County, Utah. IBC's properties incorporate 371 claims, totalling approximately 7,630 acres and are located immediately adjacent to the large Spor Mountain beryllium mine.

IBC's Vice President of Exploration, Lee Rice, stated, "I am very excited by the high quality results from the recent airborne survey, which clearly indicated several excellent targets over a very large area. The Company's focus now is to quantify the potential beryllium mineralization," continued Mr. Rice, "which we hope will provide a strategic upstream resource underpinning continued downstream manufacturing growth, as well as to support our R&D efforts, such as our nuclear fuels initiative, which has the potential to drive significant future beryllium consumption."
