Royal Road Minerals Limited announced results from the first three diamond drill holes of its four-hole exploration scoutdrilling program at the La Golondrina Gold Project, Nariño Province Colombia. All reported intersections are downhole widths as true widths cannot be determined from the currently available information. This was the first exploration scout drilling program ever to be completed at La Golondrina and in the immediate region which includes the Company's nearby La Redención gold project and many other highgrade, smallscale gold mines. Drill holes targeted subhorizontal stacked quartz carbonate veins and veinlet systems hosted in very strongly altered (biotite, amphibole, silica) tonalite and hornfelsed sediments with corresponding ground magnetic and induced polarization anomalies. Higher grade gold intersections, with elevated bismuth and copper are associated with quartzcarbonate pyrrhotite veins up to 30cm wide and lower grade, broad intercepts are generally related with stacked subhorizontal zones of decimeterscale veins and shallowdipping interconnecting veinlets and stringer zones. Evidence from previous underground sawcut channel sampling indicates that gold mineralization at La Golondrina is very coarsegrained and irregular such that assay results are consequently highly variable. In some cases, gravimetric repeat assays of drill samples returned up to tentimes more gold than the corresponding fire assay. However, gold mineralization was notably continuous and pervasive in both tonalite and hornfels rocktypes along the entire length of each drill hole with no results returning below laboratory detection limit (Entire drill hole results for GOL1602 were 195.2 meters at 0.4 grams per tonne gold) and in all cases with gold mineralization and indicative alteration remaining open at depth.
