GYD Grayd Resource Corporation

Grayd Resource Corporation (TSX VENTURE:GYD) is pleased to provide an update on
the 2009 drilling program in progress on its 100% owned La India gold project
located in the state of Sonora, Mexico. The highlight of recent drilling was
hole RC-09-432 that intersected 89.9 m grading 4.26 g/t Au (uncut) of oxide
mineralization within the Viruela area of the Main Zone.


A total of 2,121 m of drilling in 16 reverse circulation (RC) holes are reported
herein (RC-09-420 through RC-09-435). The majority of holes were drilled within
and to the west of the Main Zone area of the February 2009 resource estimate.
RC-09-431 and 432 were drilled within the Viruela portion of the Main Zone
resource to better define structurally controlled high grade mineralization.
Grayd believes that the current resource, which is based mainly on east-west
holes in Viruela, may underestimate the gold contained within northeast
striking, steeply dipping feeder structures. RC-09-431 intersected 27.5 m
grading 2.10 g/t Au. RC-09-432 intersected 89.9 m grading 4.26 g/t Au, including
19.8 m grading 16.3 g/t Au (If the grade of a 1.5 m interval grading 135.0 g/t
Au is cut to the next highest assay of 24.7 g/t Au, the intersection averages
89.9 m grading 2.39 g/t Au, including 19.8m grading 7.80 g/t Au). This
intersection is comprised of an upper zone of shallowly dipping mineralized
rocks (29.0 m averaging 0.81 g/t Au) and an intersection diagonally across a
funnel shaped sub-vertical high grade structure (60.9 m grading 5.90 g/t Au or
3.15 g/t Au if cut). Based on the current interpretation, the portion of the
intersection in the structure has a true width of approximately 21 m (See
attached figure). Both holes confirm the geological model upon which the
February 2009 resource is based. However, both holes intersected considerably
higher grade mineralization than the grade of the resource blocks in the area
around the holes. The Company plans to drill more holes targeted on the high
grade structures due to the potential positive impact on overall grade of the
resource. 


Holes RC-09-420 through 430 and RC-09-433 were drilled within areas of inferred
resource on the west side of Viruela and further to the west to test for
potential expansions to the resource. Results including RC-09-420 (30.5 m
grading 0.55 g/t Au) and RC-09-427 (32.0 m grading 0.87 g/t Au) confirm that
gold mineralization is continuous on the west side of the resource. Holes
further to the west show that permissive geology and alteration continue,
however gold mineralization is deeper and unlikely to be economic in this area.
Surface exploration indicates that the permissive gold horizon may be closer to
the surface further to the west of the area currently drilled in the Nopal zone.
Drilling in Nopal is planned in June. 


RC-09-434 and 435 were drilled in a proposed heap leach pad site in the north
part of the property. Anomalous but low gold grades were intersected within
altered pyritic rocks. Further testing in other areas of the proposed pad will
be required to confirm there is no potential for ore under the pad. Abundant
water intersected at shallow depth in RC-09-435 is good indication that ground
water can be used for any potential production.


Drilling is currently being undertaken in the Cieneguita area, testing the
potential to extend the North Zone resource westward. Surface geology indicates
potential to extend the zone 300 to 400 m westward to the bottom of the valley
on the Rumorosa claim which was acquired last September.
