VANCOUVER, July 9, 2012 /CNW/ - Gold Bullion Development Corp. (TSX-V:
GBB) (OTCPINK: GBBFF) (the "Company" or "Gold Bullion") is pleased to
announce preliminary drill results from holes and wedge holes located
to the north of the existing mineralized area of the Granada Gold
Property. The subject property is located along the prolific Cadillac
trend in North-western Quebec, 5 km south of the city of Rouyn-Noranda.
Frank Basa, Gold Bullion's CEO, is very encouraged by results that
consistently demonstrate the presence of widespread significant gold on
the Granada property. Hole DUP-12-02 intercepted 4.15 grams Au per
tonne over a 3 metre core length at 615 metres and 4.58 grams per tonne
Au over 3 metres at 995 metres depth.
The drill plan initially called for three deep holes with one wedge in
each hole and commenced with hole DUP-12-03. Due to excessive
deviation, this hole was subsequently abandoned at the 400-metre
level. Hole DUP-12-03A, located 400 metres NNE (12 degrees North) of
hole GR-11-390 was drilled just 25 metres to the west of DUP-12-03 and
down to a depth of 1,323 metres. Three wedge holes W1, W2 and W3 were
put into DUP-12-03A.
Hole DUP-12-02, located 830 metres NNE (24 degrees North) of hole
GR-11-390, was drilled down to 1,593 metres with one wedge hole added,
W1.
Due to the success of DUP-12-03A, DUP-12-02 and the associated wedges,
(observation of visible gold and typical alteration zones) and in
conjunction with the observation of visible gold in the western
extension holes GR-11-375 and GR-11-363 in the backlog program, the
drill was reassigned to the western extension to further evaluate near
surface mineralization and hole DUP-12-01 drilling was temporarily put
on hold.
The following table contains the highlights of the preliminary results.
These additional gold fire assay results continue to demonstrate low
grade, high tonnage, near surface intersections while also confirming
specific high-grade zones at depth with thickness and grade suitable
for underground mining.

Blanks and standards were inserted into the sequence at the QA/QC
Laboratory while the 50-gram fire assay results were provided by
Accurassay Laboratory prepared in Rouyn. Fire assays were conducted at
their facility in Ontario.
Frank Basa, Gold Bullion's CEO, is pleased as results continue to
demonstrate the presence of widespread significant gold on the Granada
property in support of the hypothesis encompassing both a low grade
near surface mine and a higher grade underground mine.
