Rye Patch Gold Corp. (OTC:RPMGF; TSX.V:RPM) Presents Nevada Project Update and Commences Drilling Program at Wilco
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA - April 28, 2010 (http://www.investorideas.com/ Mining Stocks Newswire) - Rye Patch Gold Corp (TSX VENTURE:RPM; OTC.BB:RPMGF; "Rye Patch Gold") is pleased to announce an update on its Nevada project portfolio. Exploration budgets totalling US$1.4M are planned and the hunt for another major Nevada acquisition is underway.
Wilco Project
The Company announces the commencement of a Spring drilling campaign at its 100% controlled Wilco project located on the Oreana trend in West Central Nevada. The campaign will complete up to 5,000-metres of reverse circulation (RC) drilling to test high-grade feeder zones in the North Basin target area and drill a new pediment target. The North Basin drillholes will have a nominal depth of 400-metres, and have been sited based on the new information gleaned from the last years drill program. The drillholes will test the newly identified structural zones for high-grade gold and silver.
In addition, exploration drilling will be initiated on the Woolsey pediment target located in the northern portion of the Wilco property. This target is outboard of an altered silicified siltstone ridge with surface rock chip and soil gold anomalies and is covered by thin veneer of pediment gravels. The altered and mineralized siltstone lithology lies above the main contact zone identified in the Section Line and Willard discovery areas. This contact has not been drilled by past operators. On and adjacent to the pediment, elevated gold and mercury values have been established and a gravity geophysical survey shows shallow pediment gravel cover. Rye Patch controls the private land where the Woolsey target is located. The Woolsey anomaly has size required for another substantial near-surface oxide deposit with significant upside potential.
In addition, drillhole composites from the 2007, 2008 and 2009 drilling campaigns will be selected for metallurgical test work on the Section Line discovery zone. Oxidized material in the drillholes covers a rectangular area measuring 1,800 metres by 1,100 metres (6,000 feet by 3,600 feet) in a series of multiple stacked zones. Rye Patch is in the process of selecting a third party to manage and complete the metallurgical test work.
The drilling and metallurgical test work will be part of an estimated US$500,000 exploration program.
Lincoln Hill Project
At Lincoln Hill, Rye Patch is completing the first ever NI43-101 resource estimate for the project. The Company has sent the geologic model and drillhole information to Scott E. Wilson Consulting who is completing the resource estimate. The Lincoln Hill resource estimate will be the Company's third Nevada gold resource property.
Following completion of the resource estimate, a drilling campaign will be designed. The drill program will have the goal of infilling and expanding the new resource. An exploration program totalling US$500,000 is planned.
Gold Ridge Project
The Gold Ridge project has several early-stage gold zones that require follow up. This early stage work will be completed during the summer with the purpose of identifying new drill targets on the property. The 100% owned Gold Ridge property covers 12 square kilometers prospective ground along the Oreana trend. The exploration work program will define drill targets. An initial targeting budget totalling US$100,000 is envisioned.
Jessup Project
The Jessup project has several targets that show potential for higher grade gold and silver associated with structural controlled breccias and breccia pipes. The targets were identified during the 2008 drill program which delineated higher grade gold and silver within breccias at the San Jacinto and North Jessup resource areas. These targets will be prioritized for a possible 2010 drill campaign. While final cost estimates are not complete, an exploration program totalling US$300,000 is planned.
Finally, the Company is reviewing and updating its proprietary Nevada acquisition list. The Company has identified several major Nevada opportunities that it intends to pursue. One or more of these trend-scale acquisitions could give Rye Patch investors the possibility to participate in a major Nevada gold opportunity.
As released on May 11, 2009 and on June 2, 2009 for the Wilco and Jessup projects respectively, Rye Patch Gold's resource inventory has 1,164,000 ounces of gold and gold equivalent in the measured and indicated category plus 2,177,315 ounces of gold and gold equivalent in the inferred category. The table summarizes Rye Patch Gold's precious metal inventory in Nevada, USA.
The Company also announces the termination of Lindsay Malcolm, as Manager Corporate Development, effective immediately.

Rye Patch Gold Corp. (OTC:RPMGF; TSX.V:RPM) Completes Work Commitment for Wilco Earn In- one year early.
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA - March 4, 2010 (Investorideas.com Mining Stocks Newswire) - Rye Patch Gold Corp (TSX-V:RPM)(OTC.BB:RPMGF) ("Rye Patch Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has completed the work commitment obligations to earn a 100% interest in the Wilco project by spending over US$3 million at the project to date. This milestone was achieved one year early.
The 5 Stocks to Own in 2010 -- Free Report!"2010 has started off with Rye Patch making great strides to reach its resource goals in Nevada and add value to its shareholders. The signing of the Definitive Agreement on the REN project and now completing the earn-in at Wilco shows the company is positioned to deliver on its resource goals in Nevada. In addition, the Company anticipates completing a National Instrument 43-101 compliant resource estimate on the Lincoln Hill property this spring. When completed, the estimate will be the Company's fourth resource in Nevada. With gold production declining world wide, Rye Patch is uniquely positioned with gold and silver resources in Nevada to capitalize on gold price and resource demand," stated William C. (Bill) Howald, CEO and President
Rye Patch Gold's interest in the Wilco project is subject to the back-in rights of a subsidiary of Newmont Mining Corporation ("Newmont"). If Rye Patch Gold completes a positive feasibility study on the Wilco project, Newmont will then have 120 days to exercise its back-in right to earn a 60% interest in the Wilco project which, if exercised, requires Newmont to contribute expenditures totalling US$15 million on the project prior to the 8th anniversary of exercising the back-in right. Newmont may also earn an additional 10% interest in the project (for a total 70% interest) by expending an additional US$5 million (for a total of US$20 million) on the property. If Newmont declines to exercise its back-in rights, or fails to exercise such rights within the 120-day time period, or fails to complete the necessary expenditures, Rye Patch Gold may complete the acquisition of the Wilco project by making a one-time payment to Newmont of US$2 million in cash (or half in cash and the remainder in Rye Patch Gold common shares, at Rye Patch Gold's sole discretion), failing which the project reverts to Newmont. Thereafter, Newmont's sole interest in the Wilco project will be a sliding scale 2% to 5% net smelter returns royalty (NSR) in respect of all gold, silver and platinum group metals production, as determined based on the prevailing gold price, and a 3.5% NSR in respect of production from all other minerals.
Going forward, the next steps for the Wilco project will entail additional metallurgical testing and preparation work for a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA). Also, the Company is designing a follow-up drilling campaign for the high-grade gold zone encountered in the North Basin.
