VANCOUVER,
March 28 /PRNewswire/ - Golden
Touch Resources Corp. ("Golden Touch" or the "Company") (TSX-V
Symbol: GOT; Frankfurt: 0GT) is
pleased to announce that it has started a twenty hole 2,000 meter
drill program on the Company's Rubik volcanogenic massive sulphide
gold project in Albania. The Rubik gold project covers 68
km2 and is situated about 100 kilometers north of the
Albanian capital, Tirana.
Golden Touch's Rubik exploration license covers a
20 kilometer long breccia zone. Exploration completed to date
has discovered near surface gold mineralization in seven areas
along ten kilometers of this breccia zone.
The first gold anomaly to be drill tested is at
Gjazuj where the Albanian Geological Survey completed a drill
program in the 1980's exploring for silica to use as a flux at a
nearby copper smelter. Their drill program defined a silica
rich breccia zone up to 30 meters wide with a strike length of
1,300 meters. Recent work has confirmed that the silica
rich breccia zone contains gold; channel sampling of a 6 meter wide
outcrop of the breccia returned 6.3g/t gold. Drill testing of
this gold anomaly has now commenced.
Mr. Aly Mawji,
President of Golden Touch stated: "I would like to congratulate the
Golden Touch technical team in Albania for achieving another significant
milestone with the start of the 2011 drill program. We have
completed extensive fieldwork and data interpretation for our
target selection and are pleased to now drill test these new
targets and define the Gjazuj deposit."
Golden Touch's principal asset are the
100-per-cent-owned Albanian Exploration Projects, totalling
approximately 140 sq. km, located in Northern Albania. The
Company has already spent in excess of US$5
million on exploration within the permit areas, which has
resulted in the outlining of significant gold, platinum group
elements (PGE) and chromite mineralization.
