LANGLEY, CANADA, January 5, 2010 - Shoreham Resources Ltd. (the "Company" or "Shoreham") (TSX-V: "SMH"), a Canadian exploration company dedicated to the exploration of advanced precious metal and polymetallic deposits in Guyana and Canada, is issuing this News Release to highlight a revision to the terms of the Guiana Shield properties acquisition news released April 6, 2009 and May 28, 2009.

On August 15, 2009, Shoreham Resources and Guiana Shield Resources Inc. executed a definitive property option agreement whereby Shoreham Resources will acquire 100% of the Guiana Shield PGM and Gold Properties Portfolio superseding and replacing the original letter agreement dated March 5, 2009. The portfolio consists of 4 groups of Large Scale Property Areas, together consisting of 13 prospecting licenses and 12 prospecting permits in Guyana.

Exploration commitments, security considerations, and cash considerations remained unchanged. However, the minimum and maximum cash provisions relating to the gold supplement have been removed.

Pursuant to the definitive option agreement, Additional Prospecting Licenses clause, the Company has received approval for the issuance of an additional 4 Prospecting Licenses. The additional Prospecting Licenses relate to properties contiguous with the existing Guiana Shield properties and shall be included, and shall form part of the existing property areas.
