KING'S BAY GOLD EXPLORATION UPDATE AT THE MENARY PROJECT IN THE KENORA MINING DIVISION OF ONTARIO
King's Bay Gold Corp. has now completed its 2011 drill program for a total of 17 BQ holes at its Menary project located in the Kenora mining division of Northwestern Ontario. In 2010 and 2011, a total of 29 BQ holes were completed at the Wagg Occurrence, 3 additional BQ holes were drilled at the Galbraith "A" Occurrence and one additional BQ hole was drilled at the southern end of the property close to Road 404 to test a sulfide zone for mineralization.
At the Galbraith "A" Occurrence, an approximately 200 metre-long gold-bearing system was uncovered. It is comprised of a strongly boudinaged and sugary-textured quartz vein of up to 1 metre in width with intermittent red hematite staining in a shear / fault zone. This sugary quartz and red coloration mimics that at the Wagg Occurrence located approximately 1 kilometer south of the Galbraith "A" Occurrence. Grab samples from this zone have assayed up to 40.5 g/t gold (see the news release dated October 26th, 2011). Additional work between the Galbraith "A" and the Wagg Occurrences is needed to confirm if these gold-bearing systems are continuous.
