Bullion River Gold Corp. Commences Drilling to Expand High-Grade Gold Mineralization at its Antone Canyon Project, Nevada.

RENO, Nev. -- Bullion River Gold Corp. (OTCBB:BLRV) (FRANKFURT:BVM) is pleased to announce that it has begun an exploration drilling program today at its Antone Canyon project, 14km east of the Round Mountain gold mine in south-central Nevada. Previous surface sampling and shallow drilling have identified a steeply-dipping zone of carbonate-hosted silicification and quartz stockwork veining containing high-grade gold mineralization. Examples of previous intersections include:

Sampling conducted by Bullion River Gold has confirmed the presence of the high-grade mineralization, including samples of 19.00 g/t Au (0.55 opt) across approximately 1m in one of the trenches and 15.25 g/t (0.44 opt) across 2m in a roadcut 125m from the trench. The main mineralized zone identified to date has been traced for 295m along a northeast strike and to 100m depth, but remains open. Four thousand feet (1200m) of reverse-circulation drilling is planned and has the potential to expand the mineralization to a strike length of 530m and to a depth of 200m. A map of part of the project area and other information are included on the Company's website.
