Grizzly has begun fieldwork preparation in anticipation for a phase 1, over-2,000-metre drill program at its Ket 28 prospect. This includes sampling, mapping and drill collar preparation. Initial work has provided favourable indications with new zones identified through the rock samples collected from rock outcrop and sub-crop. The samples have been sent to the laboratory for analysis. Grizzly is finalizing drill collar locations at Ket 28 and is undertaking consultation with local landowners, first nations groups and government officials in relation to the phase 1 drilling program. Drilling is anticipated start near the end of September.

Historic drilling at the Ket 28 prospect, located within the Rock Creek claim group of the Greenwood project, has intersected high-grade gold with 52.19 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au) over 3.35 metres (m) core length. Drilling by Grizzly in 2009 and 2010 at the Ket 28 prospect followed up the historic drilling in the mid-1990s with up to 2.77 g/t Au over 11 m core length and 8.75 g/t Au over three m with a higher-grade zone of 11.90 g/t Au over two m core length.

Brian Testo, chief executive officer, commented: "We are excited to welcome Chris to the Grizzly team.
