      Golden Chalice Resources Commences Surface Exploration Program on
      Claims Adjacent to Explor Resources Discovery
=======================================================================

.. NEIGHBOUR EXPLOR RESOURCES INTERSECTS 142 G/TONNE OVER 3 METERS ON
ADJACENT CLAIMS
.. LARGEST LAND HOLDER IN IMMEDIATE AREA

VANCOUVER, BC -- Golden Chalice Resources (TSX-V:GCR) (the 'Company')
is pleased to announce it has commenced early-stage exploration work on
its Abitibi East Property.  The property is located northeast of
Timmins and surrounds Explor Resources' Eastford Lake Gold Project on
three sides.

In June of 2008 while testing a 600 meter mag low Explor Resources
intersected 12.7 g/t Au over 7.5 meters with the lower 4 meters
containing visible gold.  On February 9, 2009 Explor Resources reported
intersecting 142 g/t Au over 3.0 meters and 45.45 g/t over 3.3 meters.
This area is known as the Lynx Gold Zone and is immediately north of
the Abitibi East Property.

Drilling by Explor Resources identified a belt of carbonatized
ultramafic and mafic volcanics intruded by a number of porphyries as
well as a strong structural trend in the area.  Geologists at Explor
Resources believe that this structural zone, in combination with these
altered porphyries, were crucial in the precipitation of hydrothermal
gold bearing fluids that occur within ultramafic intrusives.

A significant portion of this belt of ultramafic intrusives trends on
to Golden Chalice's Abitibi East ground.

The entire property has been flown by Geotech and numerous VTEM
airborne anomalies have been identified.  A program of ground truthing
the VTEM anomalies and reconnaissance mapping is currently underway.
In addition, a program of linecutting and Mag-VLF has also started to
delineate potential gold targets along the belt of ultramafics for
follow-up by trenching and/or drilling.

All other recent work on Abitibi East has focused on the VMS potential,
which the Company will be providing an update on in the near future.  A
map of the property with potential mineral trends is currently being
produced and will soon be available on the Company website.

Peter Caldbick, P.Geo. has reviewed and approved the press release.
Mr. Caldbick is the qualified person for the purposes of National
Instrument 43-101 for the Company's Abitibi East Project.
