Gold Canyon Announces Last Two Holes End In Mineralization From Springpole Winter Program

Gold Canyon Resources Inc. (GCU: TSX-V) ("Gold Canyon" or "the Company") is pleased to announce it has received remaining gold assays from its Winter drill program on its 100% controlled Springpole gold project in the Red Lake Mining District in Ontario, Canada.

Hole SP10-005 encountered 55.0 meters at 2.21 grams per tonne gold (180.4 feet at 0.065 oz per ton). The hole was drilled on the adjacent section 50m southeast and lies 85 meters east of the previously announced hole SP10-002 (see press release dated April 6, 2010) which encountered 64.0 meters at 3.30 grams per tonne gold (209.9 feet at 0.096 oz per ton). Although this hole terminated in mineralization, it indicates good continuity of the "Portage Zone" in this direction. Hole SP10-006 encountered 37 meters at 1.56 grams per tonne gold (121.4 feet at 0.046 oz per ton gold) within 73 meters at 1.00 grams per tonne gold (239.4 feet at 0.029 oz per ton). This hole is a 200 meters stepout southeast of hole SP10-002 providing further support for good strike continuity of the Portage Zone. In addition, this hole intersected the Portage zone approximately 40 meters deeper than holes SP10-002 and -005 suggesting this zone remains open at depth. Like hole SP10-005, this hole also ended in mineralization. Remaining silver assays are expected back shortly. A Winter 2010 Drill Program Drill Hole Collars and Drill Traces map is available at:

"Although we are disappointed that we had to terminate holes SP10-005 and -006 in mineralized rock when warm temperatures forced the end of our drill program in March, we are very pleased that both holes intersected stout intervals of porphyry style mineralization along the Portage zone," states Dr. Quinton Hennigh, technical advisor to Gold Canyon. "We are seeing good strike continuity develop along the Portage zone to the southeast of hole SP10-002. These results make us anxious to resume drilling in June, and we have a very good idea where we will pick up the program."

Table Summarizing Assay Results from Holes SP10-001 through SP10-006:

Core was logged, then split using diamond saws, with one half sent for analyses and the other half stored for future reference. Quality control programs include the use of duplicates, standards and internal and external check assaying. Certified sample standards were submitted with the normal sample stream. Gold and silver assays and tellurium analyses were completed by SGS Canada Inc. in Red Lake and Toronto, Ontario using a 30 gram charge, fire assay, with an ICP finish. For over limit assay results, initial assays in excess of 10.0 gpt Au, a gravimetric finish is utilized. Multielement geochemical analyses including tellurium were performed by ICP-MS following a three acid digestion.
