VANCOUVER, BC, Canada, September 22, 2008. Silverado Gold Mines Ltd. (the "Company" or "Silverado") SLGLF OTCBB, SLGL Frankfurt, www.silverado.com, announces that it has now completed 34 drill holes totaling 11,597 ft as part of its 2008 exploration drilling at Workman's Bench, the Company's prime exploration target on its Nolan Creek property in Alaska. The Company has now received all assays of mineralized veins for drill holes 08SH11 through 08SH19 (see results below). An updated drill hole location map for these zones can be found on the Company's website at http://www.silverado.com/i/pdf/2008-... Workman's Bench is the Company's prime exploration target for a lode gold and antimony deposit in the southwestern part of the Solomon Shear Zone. The Solomon Shear Zone contains NE striking gold-antimony- quartz vein systems which also occur in other areas on the Nolan Creek property, including across Smith Creek on Pringle Bench and north of Smith Creek Dome. This year's drilling on Workman's Bench has focused on defining the lateral and vertical extent of the known gold and antimony mineralized zones, in particular on the main exposed vein in underground exploration Tunnels C and D. Information thus far indicates the gold and antimony mineralized zones at Workman's Bench are open laterally and at depth. This year's drilling has extended the known lateral extent of the stibnite (antimony)-gold vein systems on Workman's Bench from 600 ft to 1,000 ft. Selected drill hole assays are presented in the tables below. Most samples of vein material contain gold. The reader should note that assay results listed in the table present results of individual veins sampled and cut from the drill core. Although there are many mineralized veins within the Workman's Bench zone, one particular vein, the main vein, continues to be the focus of interest to the company (for more information see press release dated August 14, 2008). Assays for the remaining drill holes 08SH20 to 08SH33 are pending.
Drilling continued to intersect the gold and antimony mineralization in the Workman's Bench zone from hole to hole as it proceeded in a southwestern direction. All drill core was logged and photographed by geologists. Once all technical data was derived from the core, the core was cut lengthwise. The half-core was sampled by pre-determined intervals based on geology, and placed in sealed sample bags and labeled with the assigned sample number. All samples were delivered to ALS Chemex in Fairbanks for analysis. With the shipment to the laboratory of every 20th sample, the Company submitted two (2) standard samples, and one (1) blank sample for analysis. From time to time the Company instructed the laboratory to assay duplicate samples of the pulp from the drill core. Dr. Karsten Eden, Certified Professional Geologist and European Geologist, and Vice President Exploration of Silverado, is the qualified person as defined by Canadian National Instrument 43-101 for the Company and has verified the data contained in this news release.
