GOLD CANYON INTERCEPTS 308 METERS AT 1.29 GRAMS PER TONNE GOLD INCLUDING
216 METERS AT 1.71 GRAMS PER TONNE GOLD AT SPRINGPOLE GOLD PROJECT
Gold Canyon Resources Inc. (TSX Venture Exchange: GCU
http://www.stockwatch.com/Quote/Detail.aspx?action=go&symbol=GCU®ion=C&lookup=symbol&snapshot=default
) ("Gold Canyon" or "the Company") is pleased to announce that hole
SP11-070 intersected 308 meters at 1.29 grams per tonne gold (1010 feet
at 0.038 oz per ton gold) including 216 meters at 1.71 grams per tonne
gold (708 feet at 0.050 oz per ton) at its 100% controlled Springpole
Gold Project, located 110 kilometers northeast of the Red Lake Mining
Camp, Ontario, Canada. The intercept encountered in this hole affirms
that the Portage Zone dips northeast at approximately -70 degrees and
remains open at depth.
Diamond drill hole SP11-070, situated on the 0+800m section and oriented
at 220 degrees true north and inclined at -55 degrees, tested deeper
parts of the Portage Zone in an area where it is believed to be plunging
underneath the Main Zone. This hole intersected 308 meters at 1.29 grams
per tonne gold (1010 feet at 0.038 oz per ton gold) including 216 meters
at 1.71 grams per tonne gold (708 feet at 0.050 oz per ton). As with
hole SP11-071 drilled on the 0+00m section (286 meters at 1.03 grams per
tonne gold announced in a press release dated August 31, 2011), SP11-070
confirms that the Portage Zone is dipping to the northeast at about -70
degrees. It also confirms the zone is open at depth.
Drill Hole SP11-070 not only supports the modeled data that the dip of
the Portage Zone is steeply to the northeast but provides strong
evidence that it is indeed plunging underneath the Main Zone. This area,
where once there was a significant gap in drilling, is proving to be
particularly robust in grade. Within the broader reported intervals is
an intercept of 21 meters at 7.22 grams per tonne gold (69 feet at 0.211
oz per ton gold) indicating there is a higher grade core to the zone
here.
Drill Hole SP11-070 drilled underneath SP10-001 which contained gold
intercepts including 1.31 grams per tonne gold over 21.5 meters (news
release dated April 6, 2010) indicating that mineralization, though
plunging, is still continuous to the near-surface. Recently completed
drilling on the 0+800 section tested mineralization in the near-surface
and down to vertical depths of approximately 350 meters; results are
expected from these holes over the coming weeks.
Drill hole SP11-070 was collared near the East Extension Zone and
intersected a near-surface high grade vein, 1 meter at 12.34 grams per
tonne gold (3 feet at 0.360 oz per ton gold) thought to be part of that
body of mineralization. Near-surface mineralization has been encountered
in several drill holes in this area and it now appears there is a bridge
of shallow mineralization connecting the East Extension Zone with the
larger Portage Zone to the southwest.
Diamond drill hole SP11-068 was collared on the southwest shore of
Portage Bay on the +600m section and drilled at 040 degrees true north
with an inclination of -60 degrees. It was designed to test deeper parts
of the Portage Zone prior to the recognition that the zone is dipping
northeast. Like other holes drilled from the southwest shore of the bay,
SP11-068 appears to have drilled sub-parallel to the margin of the
Portage Zone rather than across it. Nonetheless, this hole encountered
multiple intervals of mineralization. The deepest interval, at a
down-hole depth of 823-830 meters (see table below), is typical Portage
style mineralization and suggests this type of mineralization persists
to these depths, over 700 meters vertically below surface.
"We are extremely happy with these results," states Dr. Quinton Hennigh,
technical advisor and Director of Gold Canyon. "Not only does drill hole
SP11-070 confirm that the Portage Zone dips northeast; this intercept
also fills an important gap in drilling where the Portage Zone is
believed to be plunging underneath the Main Zone. The grade of the
included intercepts are very encouraging, especially the higher grade
core that returned assay values in excess of 7 grams per tonne gold.
This drill hole also makes it very clear that the Portage Zone remains
open at depth along its entire length."

Weighted averages were used to calculate all reported intervals
Reported intervals apply a 0.2 gram per tonne gold (0.006 oz per ton
gold) lower cutoff
Internal dilution within reported intervals does not exceed core lengths
of 10 meters
1 troy oz = 31.103 grams
Conversion factor - grams per tonne to troy oz per short ton; g/t
divided by 34.2857 or g/t multiplied by 0.0292
1 meter = 3.28 feet
Core was logged then split using diamond saws with one half sent for
analyses and the other half stored for future reference. Quality control
programs include the use of field and laboratory duplicates, standards,
blanks, and internal and external check assaying. Certified sample
standards were submitted with the normal sample stream. Gold and silver
assays were completed by SGS Canada Inc. in Red Lake and Toronto,
Ontario using a 30 gram charge, fire assay, with an ICP finish. For over
limit assay results, initial assays in excess of 10.0 grams per tonne
Au, a gravimetric finish is utilized.
Operational Update
Two barge-based and two land-based drills are currently operating on
site and will continue through freeze-up, likely in early November.
Approximately 6,000 meters of core have been drilled so far this summer,
and it is expected that the drills should produce around 10,000 meters
of core, somewhat less than the 12,000 meters that was originally
planned. Holes drilled this summer are expected to allow the Company to
revise the 43-101 compliant resource estimate for the deposit sometime
late in the second half of 2011.
About Springpole
Springpole is an alkaline intrusion hosting a gold system that
represents a potentially new style of Canadian Archean Shield gold
deposit. The Portage Zone is hosted by a trachytic porphyry intrusion
displaying polyphase autolithic breccias that host gold mineralization.
Other zones, including the East Extension and Main, consist of
high-grade veins and pods hosted in diatreme breccias composed of
intrusive and country rock fragments. These breccias surround the
northwest and northern margins of the Portage Zone. The known
mineralized zones underlie a total known area of about 4 square
kilometers representing only about 15 percent of the greater alkaline
intrusive complex which remains yet to be explored.
