Drill Results From Program At Promontorio Project

VANCOUVER – Kootenay Gold Inc. reported results from an additional 6 drill holes from its 25,000 meter, ongoing, multi-phase, step out drill and resource definition program on its Promontorio Silver Project in Sonora, Mexico.

The Company reports the multi-rig diamond drilling program continues to yield high-grade results, while demonstrating continuity of silver mineralization in the top priority Southwest and Northeast zones across the property½s central 1km mineralized corridor.

The strike continuity of silver mineralization in the Southwest Zone connecting to the NI 43-101 Pit Resource currently measures 140 meters to 300 meters. In the Northeast Zone, which sits 700 meters outside of the current NI 43-101 Pit Resource, mineralization along strike now extends approximately 210 meters.

States Kootenay CEO James McDonald "We continue to encounter multiple high-grade silver intercepts in the Northeast Zone and the Southwest Zone which once again underscores the strength and large upside potential of Promontorio½sdiatreme breccia hosted mineral system. We could not be more enthused and optimistic with results from the current multi-phase program. Approximately 4000 meters of drilling remain to be completed in the 25,000 meter drill program, following which time geologic modeling and a NI 43-101 resource update will be completed."
