Check Assays Confirm Distribution of High Grade Gallium

GOLD CANYON RESOURCES INC. ("GCU-V") - Check Assays Confirm
Distribution of High Grade Gallium
Gold Canyon Resources Inc. (the "Company") is pleased to announce the final
results of its check assays received from Chemex Labratories. The final results
received from Chemex Labratories in Vancouver confirm the presence and
distribution of high grade gallium on Gold Canyon's Cordero Gallium project at
McDermitt, Nevada. Sample results are very encouraging with excellent
correlation between the Inspectorate Rocky Mountain and ALS-Chemex analysis.
Chemex's results are generally lower in the highest grade samples and up to 30
times higher in low grade samples, with the net result that gallium mineralization,
as indicated by Chemex sample analysis, is much more wide spread than
indicated by the previously reported Inspectorate / Rocky Mountain results.
Of particular interest, a more extensive analytical package for a greater number of
elements yielded suprising and very encouraging results for additional rare and
highly priced metals of potential interest. The following table summarizes the
metals of most apparent interest, the maximum content reported, and the price
as reported by the United States Geological Survey for 1998, the most recent
year for which uniform price information has been compiled and reported by the
USGS.
Element Symbol Maximum $ (US) per $(US) kilogram
content per gram (1998) (1998)
Chemex
Cerium Ce 749 $0.35 $350.00
Cesium Cs 68.1 $63.30 $63,300.00
Dysprosium Dy 18.7 $0.50 $500.00
Europium Eu 10.5 $6.50 $6,500.00
Gadolinium Gd 39.3 $.40 $400.00
Germainium Ge 14.25 $.85 $850.00
Hafnium Hf 21 $0.19 $187.39
Lanthanum La 254 $0.35 $350.00
Lithium Li 124.5 $0.09 $86.66
Niobium Nb 99.0 $0.01 $6.00
Neodymium Nd 393 $0.45 $450.00
Parseodymium Pr 100.5 $0.54 $540.00
Rubidium Rb 300 $79.70 $79,700.00
Samarium Sm 62.5 $0.30 $300.00
Thallium Tl 236 $1.16 $1,160.00
Vanadium V 460 $0.01 10.95
Yttrium Y 87.8 $0.20 $200.00
Ytterbium Yt 10.2 $1.60 $1,600.00
Zirconium Z 2300 $0.02 $23.15
*Note: 1ppm = 1 gram per metric ton, 1 metric ton = 1000 kilograms =
2200 pounds (US)
The above metal contents are the highest values reported for the samples
analyzed to date and do not represent an economic average or indication as to
the average content of the potential deposit, but merely suggest significant
potential to produce additional valuable commodities as co-products from the
Cordero property. Clearly not all of the above elements will be economically
recoverable and it is not certain that any of the elements will be amenable to a
particular metallurgical process.
