TORONTO, ONTARIO - Golden Hope (TSX VENTURE:GNH)(PINK SHEETS:GOLHF) is pleased to
announce its latest exploration drill update on the Bellechasse-Timmins Gold
deposit in south eastern Quebec.
- 2010 Drill Campaign to
date: 59 holes - 14,345 metres
- Drill Results Outstanding: 30 holes - 9,092
metres
- Proposed Drilling to year
end: 7 holes � 1,570 metres
- 6 of 7 holes proposed for
Laval�s Mountain Target, 9.2km north
The company's 2010 diamond drill campaign at
Bellechasse-Timmins began on April 13, 2010. As of Monday, November 30, the
company has completed 59 holes for 14,345.6 meters of drilling.
The company is currently drilling BD2010-149. 56
holes have been drilled in the immediate area of the Bellechasse-Timmins
deposit, which include holes BD2010-93 through BD2010-148.
The company has yet to report assay results for 30
of the 59 holes drilled in the immediate area of the Bellechasse-Timmins Gold
deposit. These results will be reported as soon as the geological team
receives, compiles and interprets the results.
Mineralization at the Bellechasse-Timmins Deposit
has been followed for 825 metres along strike and 650 metres across strike,
and is open both to the northeast and to the southwest, as well as to depth.
3 holes, BB2010-01 to BB2010-03, were drilled at the
Beland 2009 Anomaly, approximately 6.2 km south of the Bellechasse-Timmins
Deposit.
Of the 7 holes currently proposed to year end, 6
holes or about 1320 metres are planned at Laval�s Mountain, a target which
lies approximately 9.2 km to the northeast of Bellechasse-Timmins.
These proposed drill holes would further test the
hypothesis that Bellechasse-Timmins style mineralization may exist elsewhere
within the Bellechasse Belt claims in Southeastern Quebec. The company
is highly encouraged by the results to date and will continue to investigate
selected areas within the Bellechasse Belt for evidence of similar auriferous
quartz-filled breccias and veins.
A map of the drill holes has been is available on
the company�s web site at www.goldenhopemines.com/explortion/bellechase_timmins_gold/maps
