Goldeye Appoints Doug Willock as Chairman of the Board of Directors

Goldeye Explorations Limited (TSX VENTURE:GGY) ("Goldeye" or "the Company") is
pleased to announce that it has appointed Mr. Doug Willock to the Board of
Directors of the corporation effective immediately. Mr. Willock has been
appointed to fill the vacancy created by the increase in the number of directors
from four to five and will assume the role of Non-Executive Chairman. Mr. J.
Richard Dean, previously Acting Chairman of the corporation, will remain as a
Director.


Blaine Webster, President and CEO of Goldeye, comments: "We are thrilled that
Doug has agreed to serve as Chairman of the Board. I have worked with Doug in
various capacities over the years and look forward to working closely with him
as we advance our flagship high-grade Weebigee project through the discovery
stage. Doug has an excellent track record and an extensive network of corporate
and industry contacts built over a career in corporate finance. He will be a
tremendous asset to Goldeye as the Company moves to increase awareness of its
Weebigee project - both the significant high-grade drill results received to
date and the tremendous future potential - within the investment community. I
would also like to thank Richard Dean for the immense contribution he has made
to Goldeye during his time as Acting Chairman and know that Goldeye will benefit
from his continued efforts as Director."


During a 30 year career in corporate finance, Mr. Willock has worked for several
top Canadian and international investment banks. He also has significant
hands-on experience in managing companies in the junior resource sector. Mr.
Willock joins Goldeye having recently left the CFO role at a junior Brazilian
mining company after completing a corporate restructuring where he and his
colleagues eliminated $268.5 million in debt and secured $80 million in new
project funding. Prior to that, he served as President and Chief Executive
Officer of Polar Star Mining Corporation and he is currently a Director and
Chairman of the Audit Committee for Orestone Mining Corp. 


Mr. Willock holds a Master of Business Administration degree with a major in
finance from the Richard Ivey School of Business, Western University and a
Bachelor of Arts (History) degree from the University of British Columbia. He
attended the Beijing Language Institute on a joint Government of Canada and
China scholarship from 1976 to 1977.


Doug Willock comments, "I am very excited to join Goldeye now as it advances the
discovery at Weebigee. The support the Sandy Lake First Nation community
provided over the last year helped to make the drill campaign a success and
demonstrated Goldeye's engagement with the community is being reciprocated. My
existing working relationships with both Blaine and Mac Watson, as well as my
knowledge of Goldeye's properties, made the decision to join Goldeye an easy
one. I very much look forward to the results from this next phase of exploration
as the prospectivity of Weebigee is daylighted by building on a conservative,
financially prudent approach to discovery."


Effective with the appointment, Mr. Willock has been granted options to purchase
300,000 common shares of the Company at an exercise price of $0.12 per share for
a period of 3 years. The grant is subject to any further required regulatory
approvals.


On behalf of the Board of Directors,
