VANCOUVER, July 6 /CNW/ - Golden Predator Corp. (TSX:GPD) (the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has signed an option agreement to acquire a 100% interest in 351 quartz mineral claims covering the Grew Creek Deposit, located in central Yukon, Canada.

Grew Creek Property

The Grew Creek Gold Property covers approximately 7,335 ha located in central Yukon Territory mid-way between the towns of Faro and Ross River. The property is adjacent and partly straddles the Robert Campbell Highway for a distance of 30 km. The property is readily accessible by a network of roads and trails from the highway year-round, and power lines cross the project area.

Gold mineralization occurs as quartz-vein and vein stock-work within permeable felsic pyroclastic tuffs contained within a graben structure formed by the Tintina Fault System(1). The mineralization is typically epithermal within a strongly developed alteration system. Past exploration at the Main Zone has outlined both high-grade veins and vein stock-work mineralization (including 17.0 m of 28.6 gpt Au in drill hole GC-96-196 drilled by YGC Resources in 1996(2)) and wide, lower-grade mineralization (such as 21.0 m of 4.13 gpt Au in drill hole GC-96-197 drilled by YGC Resources in 1996(2)). The Main Zone mineralization is structurally complex occurring within an area of approximately 300 m long and 100 m wide. Drilling has been shallow (less than 100 m vertical depth) with several holes below 100 m depth that intersected low-grade gold mineralization. Drilling to date has been concentrated in the immediate Grew Creek area with only limited drilling in the outlying areas.

The Main Zone mineralization was discovered in outcrop and expanded by diamond drilling. Geochemical and geophysical surveys have been carried over portions of the property. Irregular glacial till cover has hindered past interpretation of exploration data. Golden Predator is currently compiling and analyzing all of the historical data in order to develop a comprehensive structural model for the Grew Creek Deposit and surrounding area, which the Company plans to use to advance the project towards a resource estimate.
