DIAMOND DRILLING UPDATE - CROW-REA WEST EMPRESS MOLYBDENUM PROJECT
January 3, 2008 - Vancouver, British Columbia
Goldrea Resources Corp. (GOR-TSX.V; Frankfurt-GOJ; Pinks-GORAF) and Molycor Gold Corp. (MOR-TSX.V;
Frankfurt-M1V; Pink Sheets-MLYFF) are pleased to announce that diamond
drilling in November, 2007 consisted of 9 drill holes ranging from 514-855 feet (156.7-260.6 meters) in depth
which have been completed on the Empress porphyry Mo project. The objective of
these drill holes are to test a 250 X 250 meter area for molybdenum (and copper-gold)
bearing mineralization. Geochemical analysis results from the first 3 drill
holes are listed as follows:
DDH 07-EMP-1:��� interval 3-21 m depth 18 m @ 0.077% Mo
������������������������� interval 33-54
m depth 21 m @ 0.075% Mo
������������������������� interval 147-153 m depth 6 m @ 0.077% Mo
DDH 07-EMP-2:��� interval 3-27 m depth 24 m @ 0.080%

DDH 07-EMP-3:��� interval 3-24 m depth 21 m @ 0.064%

The Empress molybdenum prospect outcrops on the crest of a broad
west-trending ridge separating the headwaters of Empress Creek to the northwest
from Shinnish Creek to the south. The Empress prospect covers a 730 X 360 meter area (elongated
north-south) and consists of widespread, low-grade molybdenum (and copper-gold)
bearing sulphide mineralization hosted in Middle
Jurassic age, porphyritic biotite-hornblende
quartz monzonite of the Osprey Lake Batholith. The Empress occurrence is classified as a Mo (Cu-Au) porphyry characterized by disseminated,
fracture filling and quartz vein sulphide
mineralization. Significant minerals include molybdenite,
pyrite and chalcopyrite with accessory and minor quartz, K-feldspar, sericite, chlorite, kaolinite,
and magnetite. Pyrite and molybdenite occur as
disseminations and veinlets, and in quartz stringers
in a north trending zone. Magnetite and increased K-feldspar is associated with
fracture filling mineralization.
In 1968, Anaconda Canada Ltd outlined anomalous stream sediment from the
upper Empress Creek area. Follow-up work included soil samples, trenches,
seismic geophysics, and 1,122
meters (3,681 feet) of percussion drilling. A summary
of significant intercepts from the 15 percussion drill holes Anaconda drilled
in 1981 are listed below:

Geochemical results
reference: EMPR Assessment Report 10,434, Appendix 2
A comparison of % Mo
geochemical results from 2007 diamond drill holes (07-EMP-1 to 3), and
highlights from 1981 percussion drill holes suggest that recovery of molybdenite mineralization significantly increases with
core drilling (diamond drilling) as opposed to percussion drilling (where water
has a tendency to rinse away molybdenite). Management
plans to collar a diamond drill at the location of percussion drill hole 81-9 in
Spring, 2008. Results from diamond drill holes 07-EMP-4 to 9 have not been
reported yet. When geochemical analysis is complete, drill holes 07-EMP-4 to 9
will be reported. Andris Kikauka,
P.Geo.,
is the qualified person responsible for reporting Empress project geochemical
analysis of drill hole samples.
