Gold Canyon Announces Drilling Has Begun at Springpole Gold Project

13.07.2010  |  Marketwire

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 07/13/10 -- Gold Canyon Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE: GCU)(PINK SHEETS: GDCRF) ('Gold Canyon' or 'the Company') is pleased to announce that its Summer 2010 drill program has begun at its 100% controlled Springpole Gold Project, located in the Red Lake Mining District in Ontario, Canada.


Two diamond drills began drilling on July 8. Over the summer, approximately 6,000 meters are planned to be drilled on the Project as part of a continuing campaign to move Springpole Gold Project forward (please visit the following link to view the map: http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/gc712.pdf). Following its comprehensive review of the Project in 2009, the Company believes it has a much more complete understanding of the deposit and potential for significant increase in size. Through the three staged exploration program, the Company is fast-tracking work to advance the Project towards a prefeasibility study.


Phase I was drilled during the Winter of 2010 and filled several critical gaps within the Portage and Camp zones where historic drilling encountered broad, shallow intercepts of gold mineralization associated with an alkaline porphyritic intrusion.


The present Phase II drill program has three goals:



1. Demonstrate extensions and continuity of the Portage Zone to the
southeast and at depth. Results from the Portage Zone, from Winter 2010,
include 64.0 meters @ 3.30 grams per tonne gold (209.9 feet @ 0.096 oz
per ton gold) in hole SP10-002 and 55.0 meters @ 2.21 grams per tonne
gold (180.4 feet @ 0.065 oz per ton gold) in hole SP-005. If successful,
step-out holes will extend this zone of porphyry-style mineralization to
an overall length of nearly one kilometer and to depths of greater than
250 meters. Additional holes will test continuity of this zone in areas
of past drilling.

2. Demonstrate extensions of the high grade East Zone including a drill
'gap' between the East Extension and Portage Zones.

3. Fill gaps between the high grade Main Zone and porphyritic-style Portage
Zone.



Phase III is planned during the Winter 2010-11.


'If holes testing extensions of the Portage Zone are successful, we will be able to demonstrate that the gold system at Springpole is much larger than previously perceived,' states Quinton Hennigh, geologic advisor to Gold Canyon. 'We have a first rate team on the ground and are very excited to get back to drilling.'
