VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Mar 29, 2011 (Marketwire via COMTEX News Network) --

Gold Canyon Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:GCU)(PINK SHEETS:GDCRF) ("Gold Canyon" or "the Company") is pleased to announce assays from six new holes from its Winter 2011 Diamond Drill Program at its 100% controlled Springpole Gold Project, located 110 kilometers northeast of the Red Lake Mining Camp, Ontario, Canada. Results include 150 meters at 2.56 grams per tonne gold (492 feet at 0.075 oz per ton gold) in hole SP11-045A, a vertical infill hole testing the southeast part of the Portage Zone. Included in this interval are 30 meters at 5.69 grams per tonne gold (98 feet at 0.166 oz per ton gold), including 10 meters at 11.11 grams per tonne gold (33 feet at 0.324 oz per ton gold) of similar character to the high grade encountered in hole SP11-040 (100.5 meters at 7.23 grams per tonne reported in a news release dated March 15, 2011) (to see attached map please click on: http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/gcu329i.pdf).

"These six holes are infill, and they tell us a lot," comments Dr. Quinton Hennigh, a technical advisor to and a director of Gold Canyon. "First, we can now confidently say that mineralization starts at surface down the entire length of the Portage Zone. Second, we now see intervals of high-grade mineralization in drill holes along 300 meters strike along the mid-section of the Portage Zone. Third, we encountered the widest intercept yet across the Portage Zone, a true width of at least 280 meters in hole SP11-042 situated in the far southeast. Lastly, all six holes bottom in mineralization suggesting there is more going on at depth."
