FAU: TSX.V FVGCF: OTCQX FWR: FSE
Fire River Gold Corp. (TSX-V: FAU; OTCQX: FVGCF; FSE: FWR) ("FAU" or the "Company") is pleased to announce results obtained from the 2010/2011 28,000 metre drill program at the Nixon Fork Gold Mine situated in Alaska's Tintina Gold Belt. The Company has received assay results of holes 1 through 10 (N10U-001 - N10U-009) from the 3100 and 3300 Zone.
New significant intercepts include N10U-009 returning grades of 25 g/t (0.73 opt) gold over 3.2 m (10.5 ft) and 12 g/t (0.35 opt) gold over 7.4 m (24.3 ft) in hole N10U-008. A complete list of significant intercepts is provided in Table 1. The widths of the intercepts are approximate to the true width of the mineralized intercept.
This phase of the underground drill program commenced on the 3100 Zone on the 380 level. This ore shoot was historically mined from the 380 level to just bellow surface. However, it was not mined from the 380 sill to depth. The Company is encouraged with the initial results from the 2010/2011 drill program, because it is exhibiting the potential to provide additional resources to the mill. A Bazooka Drill is also being employed, drilling short holes for ore definition for the stope that will be mined earliest.

Nixon Fork Gold Mine
The Nixon Fork Gold Mine was acquired in September 2009. From 1995 - 2007, the project produced approximately 175,000 ounces of gold at an average grade of 39 grams per ton (1.14 opt). The mining and processing facilities at Nixon Fork are permitted and bonded. The deposit is a gold-rich copper silver skarn typical of other skarn systems found throughout the world. At Nixon Fork, the higher grades are found in steeply plunging pipe-like bodies which are oxidized to depths of up to 350 meters below the surface. Oxidization of the system has resulted both in secondary copper and gold, with high grades and a "nuggety" distribution.
