Expanding Drill Program Results Include 10.7 Meters of 2.37% Nickel
Golden Chalice Resources Inc. (TSX-V: GCR)
(PINKSHEETS: GCRIF) is pleased to announce results from its Langmuir Nickel
Project, located approximately 35 kilometers southeast of Timmins and 30
kilometers south of the Xstrata Metallurgical complex in Ontario. Two
drills are currently exploring the easterly and westerly strike extensions
of the nickel mineralization intersected in early May of 2007. A third
drill will be commissioned in the new year to commence drilling 25
additional B-field VTEM conductors with striking similarities to the
Langmuir nickel discovery as mentioned in a previous press release.
Highlights of the recent drilling include drill hole GCL07-20, collared
approximately 75 meters west of the discovery drill hole. This drill hole
intersected 2.37% Ni over 10.70 meters (drilled width) from 202.80 to
213.50 meters. Drill hole GCL07-21, collared 25 meters east of the
discovery drill hole, intersected 1.10% Ni over 8.3 meters (drilled width)
from 246.0 to 253.30 meters.
The following table displays current drill results with estimated true
widths:

A rigorous quality assurance program is employed which includes the
insertion of standards and blanks for each batch of samples. Samples of
the NQ size drill core are sawed in half, with one-half sent to a
commercial laboratory, Expert Laboratory of Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec, and the
other half retained for future reference. Core samples are routinely
analyzed for nickel, copper and cobalt by aqua regia digestion with atomic
absorption techniques. Any analyses greater than 5,000 ppm are re-analyzed
using total acid digestion and atomic absorption techniques. Check
analyses of the intercepts reported in this press release are being
completed at the laboratory. A systematic program of checking zone assays
at another lab is commencing.
Peter Caldbick, P.Geo., and Kevin Montgomery, P.Geo. are the qualified
persons for the purposes of National Instrument 43-101 for the Company's
Langmuir Project.
About Golden Chalice
Golden Chalice is well positioned to discover and capitalize on world class
gold, silver, copper, nickel, zinc, platinum and palladium deposits.
During the last couple of years the Company has strategically accumulated
large land packages in existing mining or mineral districts such as the
Abitibi in Ontario and the Bathurst Camp in New Brunswick. These
properties have existing infrastructure and are often within road access to
metallurgical facilities to process mined ores. Details relating to
exploration activities on specific properties will be announced during the
coming months as the work program is implemented.
