Bullion River Gold Corp. Reports +90% Gold Recovery at French Gulch mine and Additional Drill Intersections with Visible Gold.

RENO, Nev. -- Bullion River Gold Corp. (OTCBB:BLRV): Bullion River Gold is pleased to announce that metallurgical testing on samples from its French Gulch mine indicates greater than 90% gold recoveries. McClelland Laboratories, Inc. of Reno conducted the tests under the supervision of SRK Consulting. Combined gravity and flotation tests on bulk samples collected from underground vein exposures in the Washington mine yielded 96.1 to 99.5% gold recovery from the Lucky-7 vein (3 samples) and 91.8% recovery from the Washington vein (1 sample).

Most of the gold reported to the gravity concentrate after grinding to 80% 150 mesh, with the flotation recoveries following further grinding to 80% 270 mesh. Metallic screen assays (head grades) on the four samples were 1.92, 1.68 and 21.73 opt Au (Lucky-7 vein) and 1.65 opt Au for the Washington vein sample.

Peter M. Kuhn, President of Bullion River Gold Corp. states, "The results from the metallurgical testing exceeded by far our expectations for gold recovery, particularly for the Lucky-7 ore, with environmentally friendly gravity and flotation methods only being used. Gold recovery over 95% is excellent by industry standards. Again these results are another very positive step toward production in 2005!"

In exploration news, the underground drilling program at French Gulch completed 31 holes, and visible gold continues to be intersected. Drilling is continuing across the Washington vein, with hole RBU-28 intersecting visible gold 300 feet west of previously-mined areas, and RBU-23 intersecting 4 quartz veins with visible gold within 30 feet of core length. Hole RBU-31 is the deepest penetration of the vein, about 400 feet below the nearest mined levels. Although no gold was seen, the hole intersected quartz veins containing minor galena and sphalerite, minerals that are very strong indicators of gold mineralization in the district. Indicating that it should expected that more gold will be found in that area.
