Exploration at Beardmore is in addition to an ongoing 30,000-metre drill program at Goldstone's Key Lake property in the Geraldton camp.

The drilling program at Leitch-Sand River will consist of 19 holes for a total of approximately 12,000 metres. The target area extends over two kilometres to the west of the Sand River mine shaft covering the Leitch-Sand River No. 2 vein system, the No. 16 vein system, and the Creek vein area. The program is designed to evaluate some 14 targets on the property. Historically, the No. 16 vein system was exposed on the 8th level (900 feet) of the Leitch Gold Mine and graded 1.53 oz/t Au over 0.63 feet, with a strike length of 805 feet. Historical mine records indicate that a total of nearly 3,600 tons grading 0.56 oz/t were mined and milled from the No. 16 vein.

The exploration program is planned and executed by George Langstaff, Ph.D., P.G., P. Geo. (Temp.) and supervised by Tracy Armstrong, P. Geo. Ms. Armstrong is a Qualified Person within the meaning of National Instrument 43-101, and is actively involved in Goldstone's 2011 exploration program. 

"Drawing on results from recent and historic drilling and from both surface exploration and a 2010 aeromagnetic survey, we have established initial targets for 2011 Beardmore drilling at both our Leitch-Sand River and Northern Empire Mine properties," said Philip Cunningham, Chairman and Interim Chief Executive Officer. "Our goal remains one of expanding our Beardmore resources in areas that could potentially be developed sequentially along with the NI 43-101 compliant resource established at our Brookbank property."

"Logistical considerations have dictated that we drill first at Leitch-Sand River, rather than at the McWilliams showing on the Northern Empire property, which was previously drilled in the fall of 2010, intersecting a favourable gold-bearing horizon in hole NE10-03. McWilliams will be another focal point in 2011," he added.

About Leitch-Sand River Property

The formerly producing Leitch-Sand River Mine is located seven kilometres from Goldstone's Northern Empire mill, which is a fully permitted, expandable 200-TPD complex, located in Beardmore, Ontario. Historically, the Leitch Mine produced 861,900 oz with an average ore grade of 0.92 ounces per ton.

The deepest level of the Leitch Mine was level 30 (4,525 ft. or 1,380 m). Drifting was completed on this level in order to provide access to drill test possible depth extensions of Vein #2, with historical mine records indicating several drill hole intercepts of more than two ounces per ton over widths of up to 19 inches, located between 130 and 300 feet below the 30th level.
