Mining News: Raptor Resources Holdings Inc. (OTCQB: RRHI) Initiates Gravity Mapping Program at Dodge Mine

FREEHOLD, N.J. - May 7, 2012 (Investorideas.com Mining stocks newswire) Raptor Resources Holdings Inc. (OTCQB: RRHI) is pleased to announce that the gravity mapping program of Dodge Mine (Shamva, Zimbabwe) has started. With outstanding recommendations from barite geologist experts, the company has solicited the services of MWH GEO-Surveys Ltd. (http://www.mwhgeo.com/). Kevin MacNabb, owner/operator recently completed a pre-site survey of Dodge Mine to ensure the gravity mapping parameters of the hydrothermal mountain range are optimized to capture the multiple barite lenses across the property with additional recommendations to identify a variety of mineral/metal deposits.

Dodge Mine is classified as an Irregular Ore Body with close-spaced veinlets cutting the host rock and forming an intercalated network of cylindrical or cap-like deposits cutting across geological boundaries. Prior drilling reports identified barite, limestone/marble and talc. Of key interest is the documented widespread occurrences of gossans deposits indicating a massive undeveloped sulphide deposit often associated with gold, nickel, copper and lead. The presence of these metabasalt often point to gold in the host rock. Both local and international geologists have confirmed that the Dodge Mine barite deposits are world class, contain very high percentages of pure Barium Sulfate (BaSO4) and 100% recoverable.
Kevin MacNabb, owner/operator of MWH Geo-Surveys Ltd. stated, "These are exciting times for junior mining companies like Raptor Resources Holdings Inc. as I have watched firsthand the dramatic impact to shareholder value with successful gravity mapping programs performed for other mining companies in Africa." He further stated, "The pre-site survey was paramount in setting the optimum profile configuration for gravity mapping the Dodge Mine to address the unique features of their hydrothermal mountain range property."
Al Pietrangelo, President and CEO of Raptor Resources Holdings Inc. added, "We are excited to begin the mapping program teamed with highly acclaimed MWH Geo-Surveys Ltd and would like to thank Kevin for being proactive to personally assist us during the pre-site survey. With their state of the art Aliod 100X micro-gal gravity meters and GPS data loggers utilizing proprietary G Control software exclusive to the company, we look forward to sharing the data with our most prized resource of all, our shareholders."

TSX Mining News: SilverCrest (SVL.V) (STVZF.PK) Reports 127.4m @ 65.6 gpt Ag Eq(i) at La Joya Expands Main Mineralized Trend to Northeast and Southwest

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA - May 7, 2012 (Investorideas.com Mining stocks newswire) SilverCrest Mines Inc. (SVL.V) (STVZF.PK) (STVZF.PK) (the "Company") is pleased to announce the results of a further 16 holes of the Phase II drill program currently underway at its La Joya Property in Durango, Mexico. The Phase II program comprises an estimated 80 holes totaling approximately 15,000 metres. Phase II drilling to date has extended the Main Mineralized Trend ("Trend") an additional 500 meters to the northwest beyond the area of the current resource of 101.9 million ounces Ag Eq.(i) (see News release dated March 20, 2012). New results show the Trend expanding an additional 200 metres to the northeast and 100 metres to southwest with the average width increasing from 500 to approximately 700 metres along a strike length of 2,500 metres (see attached figure: here). Please reference our website at www.silvercrestmines.com for more information, photos and figures on La Joya.

J. Scott Drever, President stated: "In January we announced an initial Inferred Resource in a portion of the Trend of 57.9 million tonnes grading 28 gpt Ag, 0.18 gpt Au and 0.21% Cu and containing 101.9 million ounces Ag Equivalent(i). We have since drilled 23 holes as a part of the second phase of drilling that have successfully expanded mineralization in all lateral directions with the possible expansion of the resource along the Trend. We have begun to drill the area to the southeast of the declared resource which, based on previous historic drilling and our surface sampling results, is expected to host the most attractive mineralized portion of the Trend".
These further 16 holes have partially tested the eastern and western margins of the northern end of the Trend and have provided in-fill information within the resource area. Silver values range from 2.6 gpt to 255.7 gpt and on a silver equivalent(i) basis values range from 24.0 gpt to 445.6 gpt Ag Eq. Mineralized intervals range from 3.5 metres to 127.4 metres. True thicknesses of mineralized intercepts can be approximated from previously announced drill holes in associated areas and cross-sections. The most significant assay results are shown in the following table;
Investorideas.com Newswire Investorideas.com Newswire Investorideas.com Newswire All sample analyses were completed by ALS Chemex in Zacatecas, Mexico and North Vancouver, BC, Canada.
Holes L J DD12-40 and L J DD12-41 have identified additional mineralization along the Contact Zone which had been previously drilled and defined as mineralization near the contact of Cretaceous sediments and underlying quartz feldspar porphyry stock and dykes. The Contact Zone is exposed at surface and in this area has a northwest-southeast strike approximately one and a half kilometer long with semi-massive to massive sulfide mineralization (primarily chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite) immediately adjacent to contacts. This type of mineralization is similar to that of the nearby producing Penoles' Sabinas Mine.
Holes L JDD12-44 to 48 have identified additional mineralization in the Northeast portion of the Trend previously identified as the "Esperanza" target. This mineralization is similar to previously defined mantos, structures/stockwork and the Contact Zone although the mantos and structures appear to be fewer in number and somewhat deeper than in the central section of the Trend. Further drilling in this area is required to better define near surface mineralization.
Core samples for holes L J DD12-49 to L J DD12-52 are currently in the laboratory being analyzed. The program is currently drilling at hole L JDD12-53 located on the south central part of the Trend. Assays for the next series of holes will be reported upon receipt and compilation. Several holes contain anomalous molybdenum, tungsten, lead and zinc values over significant widths in the skarn. The significance of these associated mineral zones is being examined.
The Phase II 80 hole drill program is expected to test approximately 2.5 kilometres of the Trend that includes at least the 8 near-vertical structures/stockwork zones, 14 near-horizontally stacked mantos plus the Contact Zone adjacent to the underlying intrusive. Drilling on the southern extension of the Trend has commenced. Based on Company surface mapping, sampling and historic drill hole results, this area is thought to be potentially the highest grade area along the Trend.
The La Joya Deposit currently has estimated Inferred Resources of:

Gold Stocks; Gold Bullion (TSX-V: GBB) Provides Mineral Resource Estimate for Granada

VANCOUVER - April 2, 2012 (Investorideas.com Mining stocks Newswire) - Gold Bullion Development Corp. (TSXV: GBB, OTC PINK: GBBFF) (the "Company" or "Gold Bullion") is pleased to provide an independent NI 43-101 compliant gold mineral resource estimate on its Granada Gold Property, located along the prolific Cadillac trend in North-western Quebec, 5 km south of the city of Rouyn-Noranda.
Highlights include the following:
  • The in situ measured resource is 97,700 ounces (3.02 million tonnes grading 1.01 g/t), indicated resource is 543,400 ounces (17.04 million tonnes grading 0.99 g/t), inferred resource is 846,600 ounces gold (23.93 million tonnes grading 1.10 g/t Au) using a cut-off grade of 0.40g/t.
  • The selected base case in-pit measured resource is 95,300 ounces (2.9 million tonnes grading 1.02 g/t), indicated resource is 435,600 ounces (12.49 million tonnes grading 1.08 g/t), inferred resource is 135,600 ounces gold (3.4 million tonnes grading 1.24 g/t Au) using a cut-off grade of 0.40g/t based on a Whittle-optimized pit shell simulation using estimated operating costs, a gold price of CAN$1300 per ounce and a corresponding lower cut-off grade of 0.4 grams per tonne gold.
  • Remaining underground resources under the selected base case in-pit surface above a cut-off grade of 2.0 g/t is 273,200 ounces (2.32 million tonnes grading 3.66 g/t).
  • Previous small open pits have been taken into account and are starting surfaces of optimization while the historical production of 51,476 ounces (181,744 sT @ 0.28 oz/sT) from 1930 to 1935 are included in the resource statement (cannot physically remove from measured, indicated or inferred).
  • The mineralized system is still open at depth and laterally.
SGS Canada Inc, (SGS Geostat office of Blainville, Qu�bec, "SGS") are the independent resource estimate consultants for the Granada project who have authorized the release of the following estimates.
The table below summarizes the SGS Geostat block model estimates using variable cut-off grades:
Granada Gold Deposit In Situ Resource Estimates
Investorideas.com Newswire SGS also estimated an in-pit resource within a Whittle-optimized pit shell using a base case gold price of CAN$1300 per ounce. The table below summarizes the in-pit resources with the selected base case in Whittle optimizations:
Investorideas.com Newswire The in-pit estimate is based on a mining cost of CAN$2.00 per tonne and a processing cost of CAN$16.00 per tonne (including general fees and administration costs), assuming gravity cyanidation treatment of the mineralized material, giving base cost of CAN$29.30 per tonne including stripping. Other assumptions include 94.1% recovery of gold and pit wall slope angle of 45 degrees in the south footwall and 50 degrees in the north hanging wall.
Details on the parameters of the resource estimates are as follows:
  • The database used for Granada comprised a total of 57,803 metres of drilling obtained from the 2009-2010-2011 Gold Bullion Development Corporation drill programs, now 326 of the 404 holes drilled to date.
  • Most NQ assays reported by Gold Bullion were obtained by standard 50 g fire assaying-AA finish or gravimetric finish and another fraction by screen metallics at various laboratories ALS Chemex laboratories in Val d'Or, Quebec , Accurassay, Lab Expert and Swastika. As additional QA/QC, SGS Geostat has carried an extensive independent sampling program with total gold testing, pulp reassays from various laboratories in addition to half witness core complete re assay program in order to get confidence and enable preparation of a NI 43-101 compliant estimate of resources.
  • The SGS database made of Gold Bullion validated data also comprised a total of 57,689 assays.
  • The estimates were done using Inverse Distance Square (ID2) as the interpolation method based on 1.5 metre analytical composites.
  • Composites calculations are based on original samples value and were afterward capped at 20 g/t.
  • All estimates are based on a Parent Cell dimension of 5 metres E, 5 metres N and 5 metres height with search ellipsoid and estimation parameters determined for the mineralized zone geometry. The block model grid extends from UTM 646,200E to 647,650E and 5,337,600N to 5,338,850N from (350m) to -250m above sea level site surface elevation around 320m.
  • Geological interpretation for the deposit identified one main structurally-controlled mineralized domain including higher grades within the envelope hosted by conglomerates of the Timiskaming group. The estimation of the mineralized domain was done in 3 runs where the first required a minimum of 4 holes using a maximum of 3 composite per hole within a search ellipsoid of 50m by 30m by 5m dipping 47 degrees north, while the second run used a minimum of 3 holes within a search ellipsoid of 100m by 60m by 10m dipping 47 degrees north, and the last run one hole within the domain minimum 3 composites in a 150m by 100m by 15m dipping 47 degrees north.
  • For the classification 4 holes with 3 composites within a 30m by 20m by 5m ellipsoid for measured, 3 holes with 3 composites within a 60m by 40m by 10m ellipsoid for indicated, the rest being inferred.
  • Underground voids (shaft & drifts) were modeled from historical mine plans and adjusted according to positions of drill intersections in stopes and drifts. The stopes could not be placed in space with accuracy. Historical production from underground needs to be subtracted from the resource estimate.
  • Tonnage estimates are based on rock densities of 2.70 tonnes/cubic metre.
  • The resource estimates using the lower cut-off of 0.4 g/t Au is emphasized for reporting purposes as this is the in-pit cut-off estimated for the CAN$1300 Whittle shell, which represents the reasonable potential of economic extraction in SGS QP's opinion.
  • Additional details will be provided in the technical report to be issued within the next 45 days.
Mr. Claude Duplessis , Ing. of SGS is the Qualified Persons who has reviewed this news release and is responsible for the technical information reported herein, including verification of the data disclosed.

Mining Stocks; YALE (TSX-V: YLL) Continues to Encounter High Grade Silver at Los Amoles

VANCOUVER, British Columbia - March 27, 2012 (Investorideas.com Mining stocks Newswire) - Yale Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: YLL, OTCBB: YRLLF, and Frankfurt: YAB) is pleased to report that sampling at the Los Amoles Silver Property, located in central Sonora, continues to show the potential for multiple sampling techniques within the property as a test sampling of select shafts has returned the widest and highest grade results to date from the property. Work at Los Amoles is being performed by Yale on behalf of Sonora Resources, who by funding the exploration have the right to earn a 70% interest in the property.
The central target area of the property, which surrounds the historic Rosales mine, measures approximately 300 by 600 metres and has the highest concentration of historic workings with greater than 20 shafts and adits identified to date. The distribution of workings on different veins and different sections of each vein provides access to various levels of the mineralizing system due to the topography. All mineralization encountered to date is open along strike and to depth. The recently completed work program was designed to test the exposed vein in the walls of the vertical shafts of select workings. This has proven very effective in getting a true sense of the mineralization that is not exposed at surface. Below are the highlights of the sampling program:
Investorideas.com Newswire Metallurgical recoveries and net smelter returns are assumed to be 100%.
In addition, a test soil grid covering an area measuring 200 by 400 metres proved very effective as it defined a 250 metre curvi-linear silver anomaly that has been interpreted to represent the buried continuation of a vein as well as several discrete anomalies that occur immediately down slope from historic workings and their respective waste piles.
As a result of the continued favourable results a much larger comprehensive sampling program is being proposed to Sonora Resources for the next exploration campaign on the project such that targets can be prioritized for drilling.
The work at Los Amoles during the past year has advanced the project significantly by concentrating on a two by three kilometre mineralized zone defined by a strong colour anomaly and now known to contain at least 60 veins with strike lengths up to 1 kilometre, 40 historic workings (adits and excavations) and 19 shafts.
About the Los Amoles Property:
The early stage wholly owned 16.3 square kilometre Los Amoles Property is located approximately 150 kilometres northeast of the Hermosillo, Sonora State, Mexico. The property is approximately 10 kilometres northeast of the La Caridad Mine, operated by Grupo Mexico, which is one of the largest mining and processing complexes in Mexico.
Sonora Resources Ltd. has an option to earn a 70% interest in the property by paying to Yale US $ 50,000 (received), spending US $ 900,000 ($200,000 spent) on exploration expenditures and issuing 1,000,000 shares (600,000 have been received) to Yale over three years.
Work performed to date by Yale has concentrated on an area (the Rosales area) that is on the south eastern edge of a 4.0 by 2.75 km regional magnetic anomaly. Yale's interpretation is that the Rosales area represents silver-lead +/- gold veins that are distal to a porphyry system. The potential for this regional anomaly to reflect a buried porphyry has yet to be tested. Many of Sonora's most significant porphyry deposits are located within 70 km of the Los Amoles property.
Samples from Los Amoles were prepared and analyzed by IPL Inspectorate in their facilities in Mexico and Vancouver, respectively. Samples generally consisted of 1-3 kg of material. Gold and silver analyses were performed by 30 gram fire assay with an AA finish. Samples with greater than 100 g/t silver were re-assayed using gravimetric methods.
Ian Foreman, P.Geo., is Yale Resources' Qualified Person, as defined by National Instrument 43-101. The Los Amoles property is an early stage project that requires additional sampling and geological mapping to fully determine the project's potential.
On behalf of the Board,
"Ian Foreman"

Gold Stocks; Gold Bullion (TSX-V: GBB) Provides Granada Mine Update

VANCOUVER - March 26, 2012 (Investorideas.com Mining stocks Newswire) - Gold Bullion Development Corp. (TSXV: GBB, OTC PINK: GBBFF) (the "Company" or "Gold Bullion") is pleased to provide an update on its Granada Gold Property, located along the prolific Cadillac trend in North-western Quebec, 5 km south of the city of Rouyn-Noranda.
The Company has completed approximately 78,000 metres of drilling resulting in a significant expansion of the LONG Bars zone. The surface footprint has increased 5 fold from the original footprint, 300 metres by 600 metres, to over 750 metres by 1200 metres. In addition to the two historic shafts in the area where current mineralization exploration is being undertaken, there are another 3 historic shafts within a 6.8 km strike length to the east indicating that less than 20 percent of the potential Granada strike length has been explored to date.
Another 3.3 to 6.8 km is also open to exploration on the eastern Adanac Extension of the Granada Mine land holdings. Between this and the Granada Eastern Extension, is a 5.2 km area that Osisko Mining Corporation is currently exploring which already has historical drill sections. These sections confirm further mineralization to the east of Gold Bullion's Eastern Extension and extends the mineralized trend eastwards to Gold Bullion's eastern Adanac Extension property.
As such, the overall potential strike length of Gold Bullion's land holdings ranges from 10.1 to 13.6 km with no exploration undertaken to date on the eastern Adanac Extension. The current drill program is focused on evaluating the extent of the mineralization to the north and at depth.
Hole GR-11-390, the northern most hole drilled by Gold Bullion to date, encountered three significant mineralized sections of interest as follows:
Investorideas.com Newswire These are probable extensions of veins, deformation zones and alteration zones identified from recent and historic drilling at shallower depths. Work at Granada has shown that gold mineralization on the property occurs in veins and along contact of deformed conglomerate clasts and in alteration zones. The current drill program plan is for 3 holes with a wedge in each giving 6 pierce points through the projected mineralized zone.
Roughly 6,560 metres will be drilled with the goal of intersecting mineralization at depth in order to evaluate a potential down dip depth of over 2,000 metres at 50 to 70 degrees dip to the north. Of this total down dip length, we have thus far encountered gold mineralization of interest along 650 metres. As such, in theory, just 32.5 percent has been explored to date. The objective is to hit a minimum of 2 of the 5 known mineralized zones with thickness greater than 3 metres and grades at or above 3 g/t Au.
Near surface, the Company is in the exploration range for low-grade deposits of 10 to 20 ounces per metre drilled as compared to Osisko at 6,846 holes drilled for 789,707 metres at 1.37 grams per tonne for 8.6 million ounces of gold and Detour at 5,877 holes drilled for 889,520 meters at 1.08 grams per tonne for 17.67 million ounces of gold. Their respective ounces per meter drilled are 10.89 for Osisko and 19.86 for Detour. The Company is using this rule of thumb and expects to be in the lower range for the LONG Bars Zone of which overall approximately only 10 percent has been explored thus far.
The Company will release a NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate in the first quarter of 2012 being prepared with 321 of the 404 holes drilled to date. A total of 56,315 metres of the roughly 78,000 metres drilled so far are being utilized in the calculation of this first resource estimate. Gold Bullion plans to include the remainder of the drill data, inclusive of current drilling, into an additional or updated resource calculation to be released at a later date.
The balance of the Granada property still remains to be explored, with 3 other primary target areas that have been defined on the 11,000 hectare land holding.
The ongoing metallurgical test work has confirmed high gold recovery rates exceeding 90 percent, achieved via conventional gravity recovery followed by cyanidation. These results stem from the initial bulk sample undertaken in 2007 when 28,000 tonnes of mineralized material was processed and the work under taken by Gekko Systems and SGS Lakefield.
Gold Bullion is also undertaking baseline and hydro-geological studies in accordance with prerequisite regulatory requirements for issuance of a certificate of approval.
Claude Duplessis, Eng. is acting as the qualified person (QP) for Gold Bullion Development Corp. in compliance with National Instrument 43-101 and has reviewed the technical contents of this press release.
Gold Bullion's management hope you can attend the Annual General Meeting scheduled for April 12, 2012 in Montreal, Quebec and look forward to meeting those able to make it. For further details please contact our head office in Montreal at 1-514-397-4000.

Silver Stocks News Alert: SilverCrest (TSX.V:SVL) Reports 58m @ 164.7 gpt Ag Eq at La Joya

VANCOUVER, BC - March 21, 2012 (Investorideas.com Mining stocks newswire) Silver Investor News Alert: SilverCrest Mines Inc. (TSX-V: SVL OTCQX: STVZF) announce the results of the first six holes of 18 Phase II core holes (approx. 8,000 metres) completed to date at its La Joya Property in Durango, Mexico. Phase II contemplates a total of 80 holes (approx. 15,000 metres) and drilling to date has extended the Main Mineralized Trend (“Trend”) an additional 500 meters to the northwest from the current resource area (see attached figures). http://media3.marketwire.com/ docs/svl320_F1-2.pdf
The width of the Trend averages approximately 500 metres; narrowing to the northwest (approx. 300 metres) and widening to the southeast (approx. 800 metres) and has been traced along strike with drilling and surface sampling for approximately 2,500 metres. Please reference our website at www.silvercrestmines.com for more information, photos and figures on La Joya.
Also Watch the BNN Interview with Scott Drever for more info
http://vod.bnn.ca/Video/632809
J. Scott Drever, President stated: "In January we announced an initial Inferred Resource on a portion of the Trend of 57.9 million tonnes grading 28 gpt Ag, 0.18 gpt au and 0.21% Cu and containing 101.9 million ounces Ag Equivalent*. A portion of the Phase II drilling is intended to explore the possible expansion of this resource estimate to the northwest as well as the southeast along the Trend and infill some of the wider spaced drill holes within the resource area. The remainder of the program will test three targets adjacent to the Trend which have been shown by historical drilling and sampling to host significant Ag, Cu, Au, W, and Mo mineralization".
The first 6 holes in Phase II and re-sampling (full) of one historic hole LB96-04R, have partially tested the northwestern extension of the Trend. Silver values range from 6.5 gpt to 153.5 gpt and on a silver equivalent* basis values range from 16.9 gpt to 354.0 gpt. True thicknesses and actual depth of mineralization from surface can be approximated from the attached cross section. Holes LJ DD11-28, 31 and 32 are considered outside the current defined Trend and not presented on Section A � A'. The most significant assay results are shown in the following table and have a weighted average grade of 75.9 gpt Ag Eq* and an average thickness of 22.7 metres.
Investorideas.com Newswire Investorideas.com Newswire
* Silver equivalency includes silver, gold and copper and excludes lead, zinc, molybdenum and tungsten values. Ag:Au is 50:1, Ag:Cu is 86:1, based on 5 year historic metal price trends of US$24/oz silver, US$1200/oz gold, US$3/lb copper. 100% metallurgical recovery is assumed.
All sample analyses were completed by Inspectorate Exploration & Mining Services Ltd. in Durango, Mexico and Richmond, BC or ALS Chemex in Zacatecas and North Vancouver.
The underlying intrusive is exposed at the surface on the southern end of the Trend and from the recent drilling, appears to be increasing in depth at the northern end of the Trend. The best reported intercept in this series is from a verified historical drill hole (LB96-04R) and is thought to represent an extension of mineralized mantos that are drill-defined to the southeast. The Company has been given access to over 8,000 metres of historic core for validation including hole LB96-04. A portion of LB96-04 was previously independently validated and is presented in the "Resource Estimate for the La Joya Property, Durango, Mexico, NI 43-101 Technical Report" date February 20, 2012.
Core samples for holes L J DD12-33 to 42 are currently in the laboratory and assays will be reported upon receipt and compilation. Also, further assay results from splitting and sampling of historic core are being received and compiled. Several holes contain anomalous molybdenum (Mo) and tungsten (W) values over significant widths in skarn.
The Phase II 80 hole drill program is expected to test approximately 2.5 kilometres of the Trend that includes at least the 8 near-vertical structures/stockwork zones, 14 near-horizontally stacked mantos and a Contact Zone with the underlying intrusive. Based on the encouraging results to date, additional drills are being mobilized to accelerate this Phase II exploration program. Drilling on the southern extension of the Trend has started. Based on Company surface mapping, sampling and historic drill hole results, this area is thought to be potentially the highest grade area along the Trend.
The La Joya Deposit currently has an estimated resource of:

Forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which could cause actual events or results to differ from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation: risks related to precious and base metal price fluctuations; risks related to fluctuations in the currency markets (particularly the Mexican peso, Canadian dollar and United States dollar); risks related to the inherently dangerous activity of mining, including conditions or events beyond our control, and operating or technical difficulties in mineral exploration, development and mining activities; uncertainty in the Company's ability to raise financing and fund the exploration and development of its mineral properties; uncertainty as to actual capital costs, operating costs, production and economic returns, and uncertainty that development activities will result in profitable mining operations; risks related to reserves and mineral resource figures being estimates based on interpretations and assumptions which may result in less mineral production under actual conditions than is currently estimated and to diminishing quantities or grades of mineral reserves as properties are mined; risks related to governmental regulations and obtaining necessary licenses and permits; risks related to the business being subject to environmental laws and regulations which may increase costs of doing business and restrict our operations; risks related to mineral properties being subject to prior unregistered agreements, transfers, or claims and other defects in title; risks relating to inadequate insurance or inability to obtain insurance; risks related to potential litigation; risks related to the global economy; risks related to the Company's status as a foreign private issuer in the United States; risks related to all of the Company's properties being located in Mexico and El Salvador, including political, economic, social and regulatory instability; and risks related to officers and directors becoming associated with other natural resource companies which may give rise to conflicts of interests. Should one or more of these risks and uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. The Company's forward-looking statements are based on beliefs, expectations and opinions of management on the date the statements are made. For the reasons set forth above, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

Gold Stocks; Gold Bullion (TSX-V: GBB) announces additional positive drill data update

VANCOUVER - March 14, 2012 (Investorideas.com Mining stocks Newswire) - Gold Bullion Development Corp. (TSXV: GBB, OTC PINK: GBBFF) (the "Company" or "Gold Bullion") is pleased to announce additional drill results from several holes located throughout the mineralized area of the Granada Gold Property. The subject property is located along the prolific Cadillac trend in North-western Quebec , 5 km south of the city of Rouyn-Noranda.
Hole GR-11-390 confirms extension of the mineralization at depth. This hole is the northern most hole drilled thus far from which data is available. High grade gold intersections continue to be discovered at depth on the northern extension from existing mineralization.
Results include 256.5 metres grading 0.44 g/t Au with three specific high grade zones: at 340 metres downhole with 10.5 metres grading 2.92 g/t Au, the second at 480 metres with 4.5 metres grading 4.52 g/t Au and a third at 532.5 metres with 9 metres grading 2.81 g/t Au. Frank Basa , Gold Bullion's CEO, is very encouraged by results that consistently demonstrate the presence of widespread significant gold on the Granada property.
Additional substantive drill data is included in a table format below.

Exactly 80%, (24 of the 30) drill holes intersected significant mineralization. The 6 holes that did not were omitted from the above table. Those omitted were holes, GR-10-168, GR-11-244, GR-11-245, GR-11-247, GR-11-249 & GR-11-273.
Holes 244, 245, 247 & 249 were exploration holes drilled outside the main mineralized zone, while hole 168 encountered directional challenges and did not therefore yield noteworthy results. The widths reported in the preceding table are drill widths as "true" widths are unknown at this time. All assays are uncut, length-weighted average values.
Core analysis from the above holes was undertaken by ALS Chemex Labs in Val d'Or, Quebec , and by the Accurassay Laboratory in Timmins, Ontario. Gold was assayed by fire assay with additional metallics analysis on samples where visible gold was apparent and identifiable. Quality control was further enhanced by inserting blind certified standard reference material and blanks into the sample stream at regular intervals. This control procedure was carried out by logging personnel to ensure the highest level of independent assessment and overall analytical accuracy.

Gold Stocks; Gold Bullion (TSX-V: GBB) Announces new Drill Program at Granada

VANCOUVER - March 1, 2012 (Investorideas.com Mining stocks Newswire) - Gold Bullion Development Corp. (TSXV: GBB, OTC PINK: GBBFF) (the "Company" or "Gold Bullion") is pleased to announce a new drill program on the Company's Flagship Granada property located along the Cadillac trend in North-western Quebec , 5 km south of the city of Rouyn-Noranda.
The new drill program is intended to test structures and gold grades at depth on the north extension 2012 project.
The program comprises the drilling of 2 deep holes on the northern edge of the property and within these holes, a minimum of one wedge will be added in order to have 2 pierce points per hole, generating a total of 4 pierce points (2 cross sections with 2 intersections). The two deep holes will be followed up with a 3rd hole located between the two sections and the existing known drilled area, in order to confirm the extent of the panel. In addition, a wedge in the 3rd hole is also being considered.
Two drills from Landdrill International Ltd. are currently on the site with drilling to begin in short order. Based on current information, the mineralization trend is relatively East-West dipping North 50 to 70. The zones are cut by NNE faults therefore the program will put the holes due south, in order to avoid following one of these faults even with a possible deviation to the right. Holes should start in HQ down to a depth of 400 metres followed by NQ. In the event problems are encountered within NQ, the smaller diameter BQ will follow at depth.
The program details are as follows:
Hole 12-01 1660m at -78 due south
Hole 12-01a(w) wedge at 530m for 1050m due south aiming up at -70 or better
Hole 12-02 1450m at -75 due south
Hole 12-02a(w) wedge at 540m for 900m due south aiming up at -68 or better
Hole 12-03 1000m at -75 due south
Hole 12-03a(w) wedge at 500m for 500m due south aiming up at -70 or better
The total drill programme is estimated to be 6,560 meters.
A drill hole location map, (Google Earth map), as well as the cross sections with planned holes and wedges can be reviewed on the Gold Bullion web site at www.goldbulliondevelopmentcorp.com/ en/projects/hole-drilling.aspx
