VANCOUVER, April 8 /CNW/ - Starfire Minerals Inc. (the "Company") is pleased to advise its shareholders that the dispute with its operator Arnex Resources Ltd (the "Operator") regarding billing for overage amounts on the Porphyry Pearl work program completed in 2007 has been settled.

The disputed amount exceeded the 10% maximum budget overage provided for in the contract between the Operator and the Company. The budget was provided by the Operator and agreed to in writing by both the Operator and the Company prior to work commencing.
