Riverstone Intersects High-Grade Gold at Goulagou II



Riverstone Intersects High-Grade Gold at Goulagou II September 15, 2010 Symbols: TSXV – RVS; Frankfurt – 3RV Riverstone Resources Inc.

(TSX-V: RVS) is pleased to report the results from the recent diamond drilling program carried out on the Goulagou II gold deposit in Burkina Faso, West Africa (See Map on Website).

The purpose of six of the holes was to drill between previously drilled fences to test for continuity of the mineralization along strike.

An additional four holes were drilled outside of the mineralized zone to collect geotechnical information for engineering purposes.

The gold mineralization at Goulagou II has a strike length of two kilometres and has been drilled extensively on 50 metre drill fences.

The results from this drilling program demonstrate that the continuity of the mineralization is very good and that part of the mineralized system has some excellent higher grades.

The highlights of the gold intercepts from the drilling are listed below: • 19.0 metres grading 5.321 g/t Au; including 13.0 metres grading 6.974 g/t Au in Hole 003 • 15.0 metres grading 2.418 g/t Au; including 6.0 metres grading 4.485 g/t Au in Hole 008 • 6.0 metres grading 3.396 g/t Au in Hole 009 Significant mineralized intercepts are reported in the table below: To view the entire news including table, please follow the link: http://www.irw-press.com/dokumente/RVS_NewsRelease_100915_English.pdf
The Goulagou deposits are part of the Company’s Karma project which, in addition to the Goulagou deposits, comprises the Rambo and Kao deposits, and the promising new Nami site.

The Goulagou property is subject to an Option to Purchase agreement with Golden Star Resources Ltd.

Since March 2010, the Company has completed over 15,000 metres of RC drilling, over 2,000 metres of diamond drilling, and over 7,000 metres of RAB drilling at Karma.

Additional drill sample results are expected to be released over the next few weeks.

Riverstone maintains a quality control program involving the use of repeat assays, inserted blanks and the use of certified standards from an accredited Canadian laboratory.

All rock samples were assayed using standard fire assay with atomic absorption techniques, with samples grading over two grams gold per tonne re-assayed with a gravimetric finish, at the independent Abilab Burkina SARL laboratories in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, which is part of the ALS Chemex group. Riverstone Resources Inc.

is active in gold exploration in Burkina Faso, West Africa, where the company holds an extensive portfolio of six high quality exploration permits covering 2,300 square kilometres.
