October 4, 2010

Vancouver, B.C. - Kaminak Gold Corporation (KAM: TSXV) is pleased to report assays from step-out drilling on the Latte trend, located on the Company's 100% owned Coffee property (White Gold District, Yukon Territory). The Latte trend is one of three significant gold discoveries made to date by Kaminak in 2010 on the Coffee property. The other two discoveries are the Supremo and Double Double trends, which are located approximately 1.5km north and east of the Latte trend, respectively. To date, 17 drill holes have been completed at the Latte Zone over 600m strike length and all holes have intersected gold mineralization.

Key Point Summary

  • Mineralized areas are assigned to an Upper Latte bulk-tonnage gold zone and a Lower Latte high-grade gold zone.
  • The Latte gold zones begin at surface, dip steeply to the south and are open in all directions for at least 600m along trend.
  • Latte is located along a regionally-significant >8 km structure, of which several hundred meters have been tested.
  • The 2010 drill season is now complete and a total of 76 holes were drilled.  Additional assays from Kona, Americano, Espresso and the Supremo-Latte Areas are pending. 

�Drilling has confirmed a high-grade zone is present at Latte,� stated Rob Carpenter, Kaminak�s President & CEO.  �Both the upper and lower zones begin at surface and can be traced for at least 600m along trend while remaining open at depth.  Furthermore, the most westerly holes of the upper zone appear to have the widest mineralized intervals to date suggesting the system may be larger than currently known.�

The Latte Zone is associated with a regionally-significant, east-west trending structural corridor co-incident with a 1km long by 100m wide gold-in-soil anomaly. Gold mineralization is preferentially concentrated in the structural corridor, associated with silicification and (oxidized) sulphides hosted in brittle fractures and breccia zones that overprint older strain fabrics. Two gold environments are described as follows:

Upper Latte: Wide gold intervals are hosted in high-strain feldspar-muscovite-quartz rocks associated with silicification, brecciation and extensive limonite microfracture networks (after pyrite).
Lower Latte: Narrow, high-grade gold intervals are hosted in structurally-lower intervals of biotite-feldspar schist associated with brecciation, clay alteration and abundant fine-grained sulphide (dominated by pyrite).

The high-grade zones (Lower Latte) are interpreted as possible feeder structures below bulk-tonnage-style mineralized zones (Upper Latte). Contrasting mineralization styles may be related to host rock composition and/or rock competency differences.
