Positive Final Drill Results At Rockland

TORONTO – Wolfden Resources Corporation reported on the Rockland Gold Project, located in the Walker Lane Trend of Nevada. The program consisted of three drill holes for 1,600 total metres, designed to test below significant historical drill results that ended in mineralization, including 146.4 metres at 1.0 g/t AuEq in hole PG32 and 85.4 metres at 1.0 g/t AuEq in hole PG36C. Hole REP22, one of the three holes in the program that was drilled across the historical mineralized zone intersected 100.0 metres at 1.1 g/tAuEq including 40.9 metres of 1.92 g/t AuEq. The true thickness of the zone is estimated to be 85% of the drilled thickness or approximately 85 metres thick. Further drilling both up and down dip along strike is warranted to test the extent of the zone, with a focus first to follow the depth extent of the higher grade interval that returned 3.4 metres at 11.9 g/tAuEq to evaluate the potential for additional higher-grade feeders to this large disseminated gold and silver system.
“The program which included two opposing holes REP18 and REP22 was successful in defining the orientation of the mineralized zone and the potential for additional higher-grade at depth that may also extend closer to surface”, stated Ron Little, CEO. “The intercept in REP22 strongly suggests that the mineralized zone dips steeply to the east, beyond the end of hole PG32. Given the size of the system and the grades intersected in hole REP22 (40.9 m at 1.92 g/t AuEq), our focus is as much to find more of the same down dip as it is to test the potential extent and size of the higher-grade as well (3.4 m at 11.9 g/t AuEq). As a result, drilling is expected to recommence in July to test for the continuation of the zone down dip to the east.”
