VANCOUVER, Nov. 2, 2011 /CNW/ – Gold Mountain Mining Corporation (the “Company” or “Gold Mountain”) is pleased to provide a status report on its 100% owned Elk Gold project near Merritt, BC. The Company’s 4 month field program was completed in early October, wherein the Company completed 14,000m of core drilling in 77 holes, approximately 24 line km of Induced Polarization surveying and a 12 line km Titan 24 test survey. Results from the 2011 exploration program are still being finalized, with assays pending, and will be reported in the near future.

 

The current NI 43-101 resource estimate (not including 2010 and 2011 data) includes 2,190,000 tonnes Measured and Indicated at 4.26 g/t Au for 301,000 ounces gold contained, and 1,150,000 tonnes Inferred at 7.13 g/t Au for 263,000 ounces gold contained. Once all drill results have been received, a resource update will be conducted, to include the 2010 and 2011 drill results in a new block model.

 

Gold mineralization occurs in at least nine different zones on the Elk property, contained within multiple, stacked quartz-pyrite veins and stringers, hosted by a granitic intrusive and surrounding mafic to intermediate volcanics. The vein system in the historic 200 meter long pit area has been previously defined over a strike length of at least 1000m with erratic “nuggety” grades ranging from 1 to 50 g/t gold (but as high as 500 g/t) over 0.2 to 0.4 meter widths.

 

The 2010 infill drilling program was designed to upgrade the 43-101 resource and highlights of the 2010 drill program are tabulated below:
