Gold Canyon Intersects 330 Meters at 1.58 Grams Per Tonne Gold
Including 48 Meters at 4.15 Grams Per Tonne Gold-Barge Drill Progra
<GCU.V>
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, May 02 (MARKET WIRE) --
Gold Canyon Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:GCU)(PINKSHEETS:GDCRF)
("Gold
Canyon" or "the Company") is pleased to announce additional drill
results
and the commencement of the barge drill program at its 100%
controlled
Springpole Gold Project, located 110 kilometers northeast of the
Red Lake
Mining Camp, Ontario, Canada. Diamond drill hole SP12-122
intersected 330
meters at 1.58 grams per tonne gold (1,082 feet at 0.046 oz per ton
gold)
including 48 meters at 4.15 grams per tonne gold (157 feet at 0.121
oz
per ton gold).
"We are extremely pleased that barge drilling is now underway,"
comments
Dr. Quinton Hennigh, technical advisor to, and director of, Gold
Canyon
Resources. "Hole SP12-122 demonstrates the robust width and grade
of the
Portage Zone in the southeast portion of the system. Given these
and
other recent strong results from this area, we are anxious to
undertake
an aggressive drill plan here that we think will quickly increase
the
size of the deposit."
-- Diamond drill hole SP12-122 was drilled on the 0+050 meter
section line
at an azimuth of 220 degrees true north and an inclination of
-45
degrees. This hole tested mid- and deep-parts of the Portage Zone
and
intersected 330 meters at 1.58 grams per tonne gold (1,082 feet at
0.046
oz per ton gold) including 48 meters at 4.15 grams per tonne gold
(157
feet at 0.121 oz per ton gold). These results not only demonstrate
the
overall robust grade of the Portage Zone, but also indicate the
presence
of a higher grade core in this area similar to that seen
approximately
400 meters to the northwest (188.3 meters at 1.93 grams per tonne
gold
including 71 meters at 3.80 grams per tonne gold intersected in
hole
SP12-118 announced in a news release dated April 24, 2012). Given
that
the Portage Zone dips at about 78 degrees northeast, this
intercept
represents a true width of approximately 275 meters. It also
indicates
the zone extends to depths of at least 370 meters on this
section.
-- Diamond drill hole SP12-123 was drilled on the 0+200 meter
section line
at an azimuth of 220 degrees true north and an inclination of
-45
degrees. This hole entered the Portage Zone at a down hole depth of
335
meters, but failed to drill across the entire width of the zone,
ending
in badly broken, mineralized rock at 404.5 meters. The terminus of
this
hole lies approximately 20 meters beneath the National Instrument
43-101
("NI 43-101") compliant resource model on this section line.
-- Diamond drill hole SP12-124 was drilled on the 0+600 meter
section line
at an azimuth of 220 degrees true north and an inclination of
-45
degrees and tested mineralization along the northeast flank of
the
Portage Zone at deep levels. This hole intersected 79 meters at
0.71
grams per tonne gold (259 feet at 0.021 oz per ton gold) near the
base
of the NI 43-101 compliant resource model on this section line.
Summary of Drill Results from Holes SP12-122 through SP12-124

Update on 2012 Diamond Drill Program
Drilling from the first of four barges began on April 30. Three
drill
rigs remain drilling on land. As these drill rigs complete
their
respective holes, they will be mounted onto barges where they
will
continue drilling throughout the summer. The first barge drill
holes will
include a series of 500-meter vertical holes testing an area on the
0-250
meter section where hole SP12-120 (202 meters at 0.51 grams per
tonne
gold announced in a news release dated April 24, 2012), drilled
from ice
last winter, appears to have intersected the upper portions of
the
Portage Zone and ended in mineralization. To date, approximately
15,500
meters of drilling have been completed at Springpole in 2012. The
Company
expects a steady stream of drill results coming in over the
remainder of
2012 and to be able to update the resource by early 2013.
