VANCOUVER, April 16, 2013 /PRNewswire/ - Gold Mountain Mining Corporation (TSX-V:GUM) (the "Company" or  "Gold Mountain") is pleased to announce final assay results from the Company's 2012 exploration program at its 100% owned Elk Gold project near Merritt, BC. These latest results continue to demonstrate the significant additional gold potential of several regional targets on the property, outside of the historic pit area which hosts the previously reported resource of 301,000 ounces of measured and indicated and 263,000 ounces inferred gold contained.

During the six month field program, the Company completed 13,902 meters of core drilling in 117 holes. The 2012 drill program was designed to upgrade the existing resource, especially in the area of the bulk sample pit area, and to test five other regional targets on the property. Results for the resource area will be released in a separate news release. Highlights from the areas drilled outside the existing resource areas reported herein include regional holes drilled on the South Showing, Bullion, Lake, Discovery and Nicola Zones, which are tabulated below.

Highlights of the holes announced today include the following:

              South Breccia Showing
               
Hole Interval (m) Au (g/t) Ag (g/t)
SSD12-218 4.99 3.59 18.94

Previous drilling in the South Showing had defined a NE trending, moderately south dipping structural zone up to 50 meters wide, containing at least four discrete veins over a strike length of 340 meters and a drill-tested vertical depth of 130 meters. Drilling in 2012 has extended the zone a further 40m to the southwest and 20m to the northeast, and also defined a wider lower grade target that may be suitable for bulk tonnage mining.  Both deposit styles are open in all directions and the company plans follow-up drilling on this promising zone.

              Bullion Zone
               
Hole Interval (m) Au (g/t) Ag (g/t)
GW12-003 0.50 15.75 36.30
and 0.50 16.80 41.30
SND12-280 1.17 11.41 87.00
Including 0.30 44.10 329.00
SND12-281 0.30 9.82 26.10
SND12-282 2.98 2.59 7.89
Including 0.40 18.75 47.20

A new gold bearing zone called Bullion was discovered in 2012 while completing a ground water monitoring well.  The zone consists of three moderately south dipping quartz veins over a width of 100m.  Three follow-up holes extended the zone 75m to the west where it remains open in all directions.  The discovery in an area of minimal soil anomalies illustrates the significant potential for additional gold veins on the Elk property. Bullion is a priority area for additional drilling in 2013.

              Lake Zone
               
Hole Interval (m) Au (g/t) Ag (g/t)
SND12-207 0.30 40.30 30.90
SLD12-209 0.33 70.40 17.60
SLD12-213 0.30 89.80 53.10
SLD12-215 1.00 11.85 97.75
Including 0.5 22.90 66.50

Lake Zone drilling in 2012 successfully tested the eastern strike extent of the known zone and also found new and parallel veins to the north.  The drilling extended the Lake Zone 135m easterly and included an intersection of 89.9 g/t Au over 0.3m. A follow-up hole drilled under this intersection appears to have stopped short of the target due to the vein being steeper than expected.  Drilling of several holes along a northerly section between the Lake and Siwash North zones discovered two new veins grading 40.3 g/t Au over 0.3m and 70.4 g/t Au over 0.33m as well as an eastern extension of the Gold Zone 450m east of the last drilling.  All three veins are open in all directions and warrant additional testing.

Drilling on Discovery Zone was designed to test along strike of historical drill hole DSD95-159 that intersected 0.68m of 13.60 g/t Au.  The mineralized zone was extended south westerly 200m with lower grade intersections of similar widths to the 1995 drill hole and is open along strike and down dip to the south-west.  This zone will be a lower priority area for 2013.

Nicola Zone

The Nicola Zone tested coincident soil geochemistry and IP chargeability anomalies.  Drilling intersected pyritic Nicola Group volcanic rocks void of any quartz veining.  No further work is contemplated for this zone at the Northern most point on the mineral lease.

All widths reported above are down hole intercepts only, with true widths ranging from approximately 70 to
100 % of the reported width. All holes were drilled to the north and dip between -50 and -70 degrees.
 

Gold Mountain's CEO Chris McLeod commented: "These results demonstrate the excellent exploration upside on the Elk property, where our recent drilling has returned significant assays and added strike length and depth to known zones. The expansion and continuity of the South Showing has generated much interest in the potential for a large volume open pit gold mining operation. We look forward to continuing our regional exploration program, while also advancing with pre-feasibility work in the historic pit area of the Elk property, which currently hosts a resource of 301,000 ounces of measured and indicated and 263,000 ounces inferred gold."

The current NI 43-101 resource estimate, based on drill data available to 2009, stands at 2,190,000 tonnes Measured and Indicated at an average grade of 4.26 g/t Au (for 301,000 ounces gold contained), plus 1,150,000 tonnes Inferred at an average grade of 7.13 g/t Au (for 263,000 ounces gold contained).

Gold Mountain adheres to a strict QA/QC monitoring program that includes the insertion of blanks, standards and duplicates into the sample stream, as well as the re-submission of select samples for check assays by a third party laboratory. Core samples were analyzed by ALS Canada Ltd in North Vancouver BC,  using Fire Assay methods with a gravimetric finish for results over 10g/t gold, or an Atomic Absorption finish for results under 10 g/t.

The Company's Senior Geologist, Robert Wilson, P.Geo., was responsible for the design and management of the 2012 field program and also acts as the Company's Qualified Person for technical disclosure per National Instrument 43-101.
