Pele Mountain Begins Drilling at Wawa Gold Project TORONTO, ONTARIO--(CCNMatthews - Apr 6, 2004) - Pele Mountain Resources Inc. (TSX Venture:GEM) ("Pele" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that its wholly owned subsidiary, Pele Gold Corporation ("Pele Gold"), has begun drilling the Golden Eagle Zone at Pele Gold's 100% owned Wawa Gold Project. The Golden Eagle Zone was uncovered during a mechanical stripping program last month (see Pele's press release of March 23, 2004). The current drill program is designed to test the near surface gold potential of the Golden Eagle Zone along strike to the east and west of previous bedrock sampling. Previous sampling by Pele in the new area was limited to two bedrock samples collected in 1999 that returned 23.8 grams of gold per tonne from a quartz vein and 0.2 gram of gold per tonne from adjacent wall rock. Pele's board of directors has allocated to Pele Gold a preliminary budget of $250,000 for gold exploration at the Wawa Gold Project. A private placement of $125,000 of flow through shares of Pele Gold was subscribed for by Pele in early February 2004, the proceeds from which will be used to fund qualified exploration expenditures (including the current drill program). These qualified exploration expenditures will be flowed through to Pele which in turn have been previously renounced by Pele to subscribers of Pele's flow through shares pursuant to private placements completed during 2003. Pele is a Canadian mining exploration and development company and a leader in the search for economic diamond and gold deposits in Northern Ontario.
