Goldsource Begins Drill Program at Border

Marketwired
Goldsource Mines Inc. (TSX VENTURE: GXS)(FRANKFURT: G5M)
("Goldsource" or the "Company") is pleased to report that its
summer drill program previously announced on July 11, 2011 is now
underway at its wholly-owned Border Project ("Border") located near
Hudson Bay, Saskatchewan. Road access, where necessary and
helicopter drill pads have been constructed and the drill rig has
begun the first hole. The purpose of the program is to test several
previously-defined geophysical anomalies for potential coal
resource expansion (see attached map at
http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/gm_map_906.jpg).
The program will consist of up to 10 core holes that will be
drilled near to road access or utilizing helicopter support to test
3 significant geophysical anomalies which have been identified
using the Company's proprietary proven Coal Identification Matrix
(CIM). One target is approximately 3 kilometres by 3 kilometres and
exhibits geophysical signatures similar to those that are related
to known large coal deposits. The other 2 targets with similar
geophysical features both measure more than 1 kilometre by 1
kilometre. It is expected that the drilling phase of this program
will take approximately 45 - 60 days to complete. As in the past
the Company expects to report coal interval intercepts once the
holes are completed and electronically logged with analytical
results to follow once they become available.
Applications have been submitted to the Saskatchewan Ministry of
Energy and Resources for conversion of existing coal permits to
coal leases. The Company has applied to retain approximately 56,000
hectares which covers all current coal resources, potential
exploration targets and road and rail infrastructure access. The
leases will be valid for a period of 15 years, renewable for a
second 15 year period and are subject to a $5.50 per hectare annual
rental fee but no work commitments.
J. Scott Drever, President stated: " In connection with the
business combination of Goldsource and ZEEP, both parties agree
that continuing the exploration and development of this valuable
asset at Border is an important component in the strategy to
ultimately develop a major coal gasification energy centre in
Saskatchewan utilizing the Pratt Whitney Rocketdyne technology
under license to ZEEP. The current program will provide valuable
information on the existing as well as potential new coal resources
and set the stage for possible bulk sampling of the deposits in
2012".
