The delineation drill program seeks to upgrade a portion of the Dogpaw No. 1 Vein historic resource of 53,741 tonnes grading 15.43 g/mt gold (59,239 tons averaging 0.450 oz/st gold) to modern standards. The first 22 holes of this program have now been reported and 18 holes intersected significant gold values of 3 g/mt gold or higher. Results from the remaining 12 drill holes are expected in the next few weeks and will be announced as soon as they are available.

"We have now received results from 39 drill holes since our acquisition of the Dogpaw Lake property," said E. Grayme Anthony, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Fully 32 of these holes have returned gold grades of 3 grams per tonne or higher. With results from 26 drill holes yet to be reported, and further drilling planned, we look forward to a productive and interesting fall exploration season."

Drill holes DP-08-69 to DP-08-80 form part of the systematic testing of the vicinity of the Dogpaw No. 1 Vein historic resource. The reported drilling tests the vein from a minimum depth of approximately 32.63 metres (107.04 feet) in DP-08-79 to a maximum depth of about 103.24 metres (338.65 feet) in DP-08-76 (Tables 1 and 2). Eleven of the twelve drill holes intersected the strongly altered and silicified meta-gabbroic rocks that typify Dogpaw Vein No. 1. The 465 drill core samples returned assay results that varied from trace to 37.57 g/mt (1.096 oz/st) gold. DP-08-71 was one of the deepest of the reported drill holes and intersected 6.77 g/mt gold over a core length of 4.30 metres (0.197 oz/st gold over 14.10 feet), including 37.57 g/mt gold over 0.70 metres (1.096 oz/st gold over 2.30 feet).
Perhaps the most striking aspect of the assay results is the ubiquitous intersection of a second anomalous to well-mineralized gold zone in the hanging wall approximately 20 metres above the No. 1 Vein. Drill hole DP-08-69 illustrates this mineralization assaying 4.84 g/mt gold over 1.95 metres (0.141 oz/st gold over 6.40 feet. A second hanging wall vein system was also encountered in the recent drilling of Vein No. 2. This supports the interpretation that Vein No. 2 is the lateral extension of Vein No. 1.

The twelve drill holes were drilled at 38.9 to 68.5 degrees to intercept the 70-degree dipping Dogpaw No. 1 Vein. True widths are estimated to be 94.6% of the 40-degree, 86.7% of 50-degree, 76.6% of 60-degree and 64.3% of 70-degree collar dips.
Houston Lake has completed a 14-hole 2,062m (6,560 ft.) delineation drill program earlier this month. The program aims to expand the historic resource to encompass a newly identified western lateral extension, the Dogpaw No. 2 Vein. The No. 2 Vein has now been defined to a depth of over 140m (460 ft.) and for a distance of at least 100m (328 ft.) along strike. Logging and sampling of this new core is expected to recommence next week.
Due Diligence
All samples reported were shipped to TSL Laboratories, an ISO accredited facility, of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Samples taken from the core of the mineralized zone were analyzed utilizing a screen metallic assay method. This methodology provides a higher level of assurance by testing a large quantity of sample (1,000g) and by monitoring the size distribution of the gold. Samples taken from the shoulders of the mineralized zone were analyzed by fire assay utilizing a 50-gram charge. All samples were assayed with an AA finish and those samples assaying above 3 g/mt gold were retested utilizing a gravimetric finish. The samples will also be re-checked at a second qualified laboratory in keeping with the Company's standard due diligence procedures.
The tonnages, grades, assays and other technical data are taken from historical records prior to the implementation of NI 43-101. While the data are believed to have been acquired, processed and disclosed by persons believed to be technically competent, it is unverifiable at present.
A qualified person as defined under NI 43-101 has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves. Houston Lake is not treating the historical estimates as current mineral resources or mineral reserves as defined in NI 43-101 and the historical estimate should not be relied upon.
Dean Cutting, P. Geo., an independent consulting geologist, is the Qualified Person under the guidelines of NI 43-101 for the technical aspects of this news release.
