SnipGold Provides Update on Drill Program

05/09/2012 4:49pm

Marketwired Canada


SnipGold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:SGG) ("SnipGold" or the "Company") (formerly Skyline
Gold Corporation) is pleased to provide an update on the 2012 exploration
program which tested five priority areas with nine diamond drill holes totaling
over 2400 metres. A total of twelve holes underwent Borehole Pulse
Electromagnetic ("BPEM") geophysical surveys.


The objectives of the 2012 exploration program were to assess five key
exploration targets by:




1.  Drill testing a series of historic electromagnetic ("EM") conductors,
    along the Burnie Trend, at the C1 area and on Johnny Flats, for the
    potential to host Snip style high grade gold mineralization. 
2.  Follow-up on 2011 drilling along the Snip-Bronson Trend. 
3.  Gain a better understanding of the controls of the high grade gold
    mineralization at Gorge by accurately locating historic drill holes and
    follow-up by drilling and BPEM surveys.



All 2012 objectives were successfully completed on a very limited budget.

Diamond drilling and BPEM work completed this year include:



--  Four widely spaced drill holes tested a 4.3 km strike length of the nine
    kilometer Burnie Trend. Three of these holes underwent BPEM surveys. 
--  Two drill holes tested the 2.8 km Johnny Flats set of 3D EM plate model
    anomalies, these two holes, as well as a deep hole completed by Cominco
    in 1995 were all tested with BPEM surveys. 
--  The C1 area, the Gorge and the Snip Bronson Trend have all be been
    tested with single drill holes in 2012. BPEM surveys were completed on
    the three 2012 holes as well as three historic Gorge holes.



All core samples have now been delivered to the analytical lab. The assay data
will be released to the public once all gold and multi-element analyses have
been received. Initial geological interpretations are expected to be provided in
conjunction with the assay release.
