Lund Commences Black Fox Exploration

  Lund Gold Ltd. (TSX VENTURE: LGD) ("Lund") is pleased to announce the commencement of gold exploration on the Black Fox property in northwestern Ontario. The first phase program is comprised of detailed geological and geochemical sampling, prospecting, trenching and geophysics followed by diamond drilling.

The Black Fox property is located approximately 225 kilometres east of Thunder Bay and approximately 70 kilometres west of the Hemlo Gold deposit. The Trans Canada Highway (Highway 17) and the national railway cross the southern portion of the property and provide excellent access to the property. High tension power transmission lines cross the property's north boundary.

The property lies within the Schreiber-Hemlo Greenstone Belt which is host to the 25 million ounce Hemlo Gold deposit. The world-class Hemlo deposit was the major gold discovery in Canada during the 1980's, and was for numerous years responsible for almost one third of Ontario's annual gold production.

The Black Fox property contains extensive alteration zones characterized by intense quartz/sericite/pyrite and quartz/fuchsite/pyrite schists associated with shearing which is parallel and sub-parallel to regional structures, and locally associated with gold mineralization and significant high grade gold float samples.

Despite its easily accessible location, only sporadic gold exploration has taken place since the 1890's. Prospector interest resurfaced after Operation Treasure Hunt in 2000 when the Ontario Ministry of Northern Development and Mines ("MNDM") performed regional airborne geophysical surveys over the region. This work led to the discovery by prospectors of gold showings with associated alteration zones along a greater than 2-kilometre south west regional trend crossing the Black Fox property. Of particular note is the discovery of high grade gold float located along this trend, near the centre of the Black Fox property, where sampling and assaying by the Ontario MNDM office in Thunder Bay returned consistent results ranging from 165 to 189 g/t gold. The hydrothermally altered float samples (silica, sericite and iron carbonate with pyrite) consisted of fragile angular blocks that are assumed proximal to their source location.
