Abitibi ("AGB") Grassroots Exploration Project Update: Golden Valley Identifies 29 "Drill Ready" Prospects

11/06/2012 4:09pm

Marketwired Canada


Golden Valley Mines Ltd. ("Golden Valley" or the "Company")(TSX VENTURE:GZZ)
provides the following update with respect to its property holdings in the
Abitibi Greenstone Belt ("AGB"), located in Quebec and Ontario.


Golden Valley's exploration activities over the past several years have been
mainly focused on preliminary fieldwork conducted over the company's 100%-owned
properties, with the objective of upgrading and advancing each property to the
group of "drill-ready" prospects for the Company's AGB Project.


The preliminary fieldwork consisted of "boot and hammer" prospecting and
sampling and where warranted, the establishment of mini grids over high priority
target areas (i.e. surface showings and airborne geophysical anomalies) to
facilitate the completion of ground geophysical surveys. The Company's AGB
Grassroots exploration project is principally directed towards identifying
prospective targets for both precious (Au-Ag, PGE) and base-metals (Cu-Zn, Co,
Ni-Cu).


Presently, Golden Valley has identified drill targets on twenty-one (21)
individual prospects, that in total include fifty-five (55) "higher priority
targets" for an aggregate amount of approximately 7,445 metres of proposed
diamond drilling. Table I includes both 100%-owned and recently optioned
properties (to each of Monarch Energy Limited ("Monarch") and Golden Cariboo
Resources Ltd. ("GCC") and in respect of which Golden Valley is the program
operator. 


A summary of the proposed drilling is as follows:

In addition to the prospects listed in Table I above, a further sixty-three (63)
follow-up drillholes with an aggregate amount of approximately 9,838 metres of
diamond drilling is proposed on eight (8) separate properties, following the
initial diamond drill programs operated by Golden Valley. Table II includes both
100%-owned and recently optioned properties (to each of GCC and Big North
Graphite (formerly Big North Capital Inc. and in respect of which the Company is
the program operator).
