VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - July 14, 2008) - Goldsource Mines Inc. (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:GXS) is pleased to announce that it has commenced drilling the first of seven additional core holes on its coal permits of the Border Property near Hudson Bay, Saskatchewan. The Company intends to re-drill the two discovery holes, the results of which were announced previously. The first hole to be drilled in this sequence is BD08-1 (see attached drill plan, available at: https://media3.marketwire.com/docs/goldmap.JPG).
This drill program has been designed to:
- Establish the continuity and the thicknesses of the Durango coal seam (see attached cross section, available at: https://media3.marketwire.com/docs/goldmap.JPG);
- provide broader and better information on coal quality;
- give insight into the orientation of the coal basin(s); and
- provide the optimum hole spacing for an initial inferred resource estimate.
Independent qualified persons from Norwest Corporation ("Norwest") will be present for initial drilling to inspect coal intercepts, establish coal sampling and handling protocols, quality assurance and control and set up a standardized coal logging system. Samples will be shipped to Loring Labs in Calgary for analysis based on Norwest's recommendations.
Upon successful completion of this initial drill program, the Company plans to complete a NI 43-101 Technical Report including initial resource estimates. Also, based on the success of drilling, a Preliminary Assessment to quantify potential markets, transportation, preliminary capital and operating costs will be considered. Permitting of a major drill program for the winter of 2008-2009 is currently underway.
