Goldsource Corporate Update: ZEEP Transaction Closing Date Extended 100 Metre Coal Zones Intercepted at Border

04.11.2011  |  Marketwire

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/04/11 -- Goldsource Mines Inc. (TSX VENTURE: GXS)(FRANKFURT: G5M) ('Goldsource' or the 'Company') announces that it has agreed with Zero Emissions Energy Plants (ZEEP) to extend the closing date of the business combination of Goldsource and ZEEP to December 31, 2011. A definitive Arrangement Agreement was announced September 1, 2011. In connection with the closing date extension, the date of the requisite Special Shareholders Meeting has been postponed and is being rescheduled for mid to late December.


Completion of the Arrangement is subject to the satisfaction of a number of conditions under the Arrangement Agreement, including receipt of the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the 'Exchange') to the listing of the ZEEP shares, approval of the Arrangement and election of new Directors by not less than 50% of the votes cast at the ZEEP shareholder meeting, approval of the Arrangement by not less than two-thirds of the votes cast at the Goldsource shareholder meeting, approval by the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the 'Court'), receipt of all other required regulatory and third party approvals and consents; and such other conditions as may be required to complete and effect the Arrangement.


Under the amended terms of the Arrangement Agreement ZEEP is required to have completed a financing for minimum aggregate proceeds of $11,000,000. ZEEP has received subscriptions for over $5.0 million of the required financing and is in advanced discussions for the balance of the financing with financial institutions and investors.


The Company is also pleased to report that it has completed drilling 8 core holes in its most recent exploration program at its wholly-owned Border Project ('Border') located near Hudson Bay, Saskatchewan, Canada. These holes, some of which encountered several thick coal zones in excess of 100 metres, were drilled in the Niska 105 (5 holes) and Pasquia 98 (2 holes) deposits as well one hole to test an airborne geophysical anomaly in the Red Deer area in Manitoba. Drilling on the property to date has discovered a total of 17 coal deposits at Border with good potential for additional coal discoveries (see attached map at http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/gxs114_F1.JPG).


Exploration program highlights are as follows:



-- A total of 8 holes completed with 1,308 metres drilled. Six out of eight
holes encountering coal zone intercepts.


-- The most significant coal zone intervals occurred in the Niska 105 sub-
basin where 5 holes encountered true, aggregate thicknesses ranging from
69 to 119 metres (see table below).


-- Infill drilling has given better definition to the Niska 105 deposits
where the objective was to upgrade Speculative Resources to Indicated
and Inferred Resources. A majority of the Speculative Resource at Niska
105 are expected to be converted to Indicated Resources with potential
increase in overall resources.


-- Niska 105 deposit is conveniently located adjacent to rail and, after
completing the upgrade to Indicated Resources, should be a priority
above other known Company deposits for near-future studies and potential
development.


-- Drilling has further defined a coal deposit at Pasquia 98. One drill
hole intercepted a 3 metres thick coal seam. A previous hole drilled in
this area encountered a 34.9 metre coal zone. Further drilling will be
contemplated on this large geophysical anomaly.


-- Environmental baseline work under the direction of EBA Engineering
Consultants, a Tetra Tech Company, has continued with emphasis on data
collection and reporting on results as a base for permitting and a
possible Pre-Feasibility Study.



Numbering of the drill holes for this phase of exploration continues sequentially from previous programs beginning at BD11-141. Names of deposits are based on an identifier in the general location and the areas are designated according to the discovery hole numbers.



---------------------------------------------------------------------
From To Coal Zone
Hole ID (m) (m) Interval (i)(m) Notes
---------------------------------------------------------------------
BD11-142 73 76 3 Pasquia 98 deposit

BD11-143 80 199 119 Niska 105 deposit

BD11-144 85 185 100 Niska 105 deposit

BD11-145 61 174 113 Niska 105 deposit

BD11-146 71 161 90 Niska 105 deposit

BD11-147 74 143 69 Niska 105 deposit

(i) The coal zone intervals are based on visuals (coal and
carbonaceous material) and by down hole, e-log density of 1.6 g/cc or
less.


Holes BD11-141 and BD11-148 were drilled in deposits, Pasquia 98 and Red Deer, Manitoba, respectively and showed no significant coal intercepts.


Initial identification of the intervals of coal in the table above is based on visual observations. The Company cautions against placing undue reliance on the visual observations of the coal until the results of the analytical work have been announced. Sampling and laboratory test work is ongoing.


Current coal resources at Border, as established in the Company's NI 43-101 'Preliminary Assessment Report on the Border Coal Project, Saskatchewan, Canada', prepared by Marston Canada Ltd. and EBA Engineering Consultants Ltd., a Tetra Tech Company, on December 24, 2009 and available at www.sedar.com, include:



- Indicated Resources: 79.1 million tonnes
- Inferred Resources: 34.8 million tonnes
- Speculative Resources: 61.1 million tonnes


J. Scott Drever, President stated: 'We believe that the ZEEP transaction, when completed, will allow for an accelerated development of the coal deposits identified at Border. Raising the necessary financing has been a challenge for ZEEP in these volatile markets but we are confident that the transaction can be completed before year end. In the mean time this current phase of drilling is now completed and should expand our Indicated Resources while continuing to advance the understanding of the coal deposits and the nature of the geophysical targets being tested.'
