  The production of the strange and double-strange baryon resonances
($\Sigma(1385)^{\pm}$, $\Xi(1530)^{0}$) has been measured at mid-rapidity
($\left | y \right |<0.5$) in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 7 TeV
with the ALICE detector at the LHC. Transverse momentum spectra for inelastic
collisions are compared to QCD-inspired models, which in general underpredict
the data. A search for the $\phi(1860)$ pentaquark, decaying in the $\Xi\pi$
channel, has been carried out but no evidence is seen.
