CAYDEN DRILLS 8 METERS OF 16.1 G/T GOLD AND 55 METERS OF 0.92 G/T GOLD AT ANGOSTURA
Cayden Resources Inc. has released additional drill results from Angostura, the
third of nine priority targets being tested at the company's El
Barqueno gold project located in Jalisco state, Mexico.
Highlights include eight metres of 16.1 grams per tonne gold, including two metres of 41.9
grams per tonne gold, in hole 91, as well as 55 metres of 0.92 gram per tonne gold and 0.3 per cent copper in hole 86.

The latest results at Angostura, which is a parallel structure one kilometre northwest of
the Azteca target, include a drill hole intercept with grade times
width of over 100 grams per tonne metre gold. This makes Angostura the third target to
deliver a plus-100-gram-per-tonne-metre intercept. Cayden is continuing to drill the
Angostura structure, and there are currently six additional holes
pending assays (please see Cayden's website for a drill location map and a cross-section figure).
President and chief executive officer Ivan Bebek stated: "Angostura is the third significant
gold discovery at El Barqueno, where six additional targets remain to be
drill tested and several outcropping mineralized areas have yet to be
explored. The company anticipates receiving additional drill permits in
the near future that will open up all of the targets drilled to date
for expansion both along strike and at depth. The El Barqueno
concessions continue to support the potential discovery of a world-class gold district."
Qualified person
David Hladky, PGeo, is the qualified person with respect to National Instrument 43-101 at El Barqueno. All drill core from this release is drilled at PQ3
or HQ3 diameter and is sawn or split into equal halves on site. All
samples are assayed using standard 30-gram fire assay with atomic-absorption finish by Acme Labs in Vancouver, Canada. Quality assurance/quality control programs using
internal standard samples, field and lab duplicates, reassays and
blanks indicate good accuracy and precision in a large majority of
standards assayed. As the mapped mineralized corridors strike east-west to
east-northeast, the drill holes were designed to have azimuths perpendicular or as
close to perpendicular to the strike as the permitted pads would allow.
As this is the first drill program by Cayden at Angostura, the dips of
the main structure are not entirely known, but are believed to dip
steeply to moderately to the south, based on mapping and historical
work, and, thus, the intercepts are estimated to represent 30 per cent to 90 per cent of the
true width. Intercepts were calculated assuming a bulk-mining scenario.
No intercepts were reported that averaged less than 0.5 gram per tonne gold and/or
0.2 per cent copper, and no intercepts have more than six consecutive metres of
less than 0.2 gram per tonne gold and/or 0.2 per cent copper, or begin or end with values less
than 0.2 gram per tonne gold and/or 0.2 per cent copper.
