VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 09/02/10 -- Canasia Industries Corporation ('Canasia' and the 'Company') (TSX VENTURE: CAJ)(PINK SHEETS: CANSF)(FRANKFURT: 45C) has been informed by the operator that crews have now started drilling operations on the Clone Gold Prospect. Last year's drill program on the Clone Gold prospect returned grades as high as 44.75 g/t Au over 12.80 metres (announced October 22, 2009). The Clone Gold Prospect is Canasia's flagship property. The Company is spending approximately twice as much as last year on this year's drill program.Negar Adam, president of Canasia stated, 'It is exciting to be finally underway on the Clone. Over the last two fiscal years we have spent more money on exploration on the Clone Prospect than on any of our other prospects. Canasia's shares traded up to $0.41 last year on more than 250 million shares which correlated with last season's Clone drill program. Considering gold prices are now over $1,200 per ounce, compared to being approximately $900 per ounce last year, management is optimistic about how this year's significantly larger drill program will impact Canasia's growth.'
