Golden Predator Corp. announced the results of its early stage soil and rock chip sampling programs from 2011 and 2012 from the Rogue A, B and F properties located in the central Selwyn. On the Rogue B property, the company has discovered an area of high-grade gold mineralization exposed over an area of approximately 1 km x 1 km that it is calling the Valley Gold area.

The gold mineralization is associated with arsenopyrite-bearing quartz veins, breccias and stockworks hosted in Cretaceous quartz monzonite intrusive and peripheral siltstone and chert of the Paleozoic Road River and Earn Groups. A total of forty-eight rock chip samples were collected from the Valley Gold area and twenty-four (50%) returned values over 0.48 g/t gold. Twelve of the forty-eight rock chip samples (25%) returned gold values greater than 4.32 g/t gold with a high value of 152.0 g/t gold.

The 2012 sampling program was guided by gold anomalous stream sediment samples from Golden Predator's 2011 generative program. The Rogue B property: The property is being explored by the company targeting gold mineralization, centered on and peripheral to, a cluster of mid-Cretaceous age plutons in the Emerald Lake area. Golden Predator's 2011 stream sediment program defined an area (25 km(2)) of gold mineralization west of the small quartz monzonite pluton at Arrowhead Mountain.

Sampling in 2011 and 2012 has identified three areas of gold mineralization along an 8 km east-west trend; the Valley Gold, Gracie and Arrowhead Pass areas. The continuity of gold mineralization along strike between the zones is currently unknown and the width of the zone is only locally constrained by sampling and ranges from 200 to 300 m. The highest grade samples were collected 100 m from the intrusive contact in brecciated and silicified siltstone and chert with quartz veining and disseminated arsenopyrite with seven samples containing greater than 4.78 g/t gold with a high of 152.0 g/t gold. A second sampling site, 200 m west of the seven high grade samples, returned values of 10.10 g/t gold and 5.06 g/t gold from quartz-arsenopyrite veins and stockworks hosted in quartz monzonite.

A third sampling site, approximately 600 m west of the second site is an outcrop of variably hornfelsed siliciclastics and quartz monzonite exposed in the valley floor. A channel sample from a quartz-arsenopyrite vein parallel to the quartz monzonite contact returned a value of 4.20 g/t gold over 8.12 m including 1.28 m of 12.20 g/t gold. A channel sample from an adjacent outcrop with arsenopyrite veinlets in shale returned a value of 4.32 g/t gold over 3.42 m. Chip samples from outcrops 65 to 70 m northwest and southeast returned values of 18.30 and 1.63 g/t gold from pyrrhotite hornfels and 3.55, 2.33 and 0.90 g/t gold from quartz veinlets, up to 10 cm wide, cutting quartz monzonite.

Approximately 300 m north of the intrusive contact an outcrop of clay altered siltstone with quartz-arsenopyrite stockworks adjacent to a quartz monzonite dike returned a value of 0.96 g/t gold over 4.0 m from a channel sample perpendicular to the strike of the dike. A total of 144 rock chip samples were collected in 2011 and 2012 over an area of 1 km by 1 km and 105 samples returned values above detection (10 ppb) and 30 of the samples returned values greater than 0.40 g/t gold with a high value of 57.00 g/t gold. Gold mineralized talus/float samples have been collected on both sides of a steep ar the for approximately one km along the strike of the structure.

The 57.00 g/t gold sample was from silicified siltstone talus-float with quartz-arsenopyrite-pyrite stockworks. The Arrowhead Pass area is located 3 km east of the Gracie area adjacent to a small quartz monzonite pluton. A total of 15 rock samples (float) were collected over an area of 0.5 km by 0.5 km and all returned values above detection (10 ppb gold) and six samples returned gold values greater than 1.00 g/t gold with a maximum value of 7.51 g/t gold.

Soil samples (talus fines) collected along a 4 km soil contour line returned a continuous 700 m section of samples (50 m spacing) with values greater than 30 ppb gold. Rogue A property: A total of 148 rock samples were collected from the Rogue A property with 88 samples returning values above detection (10 ppb gold). Two samples returned values of 9.97 and 3.49 g/t gold from quartz-arsenopyrite veining in chert approximately 2.5 km from the intrusion.

Sampling in the vicinity of the Horn Minfile occurrence 8 km west of the intrusion returned values of 3.22 and 1.52 g/t gold from tremolite-actinolite-chlorite skarn from a grab sample and a 1 m channel sample perpendicular to bedding respectively. Rogue F property: The Rogue F property is located 22 km northeast of the Rogue B property. A total of 575 ridge and spur, soil samples and 32 rock chip samples were collected from two separate areas in drainage basins with gold anomalous stream sediment samples.

A total of 243 soil samples returned gold values above detection (10 ppb gold) and 23 samples had gold values greater than 50 ppb with a high value of 180 ppb. The soil samples with higher gold values also returned higher values of arsenic (163 ppm high), mercury (3.33 ppm high) and antimony (63.0 ppm high) that are commonly associated with Carlin style gold mineralization. Five rock samples returned values above detection (10 ppb) with a high of 20 ppb gold.
