The assay results of this initial work program further improve on those obtained previously; with the highest silver assay grading 1,175 g/t. A total of 42 samples were taken along the two main veins in the property and a 50,000:1 scale geological map of the property has been generated. All samples were prepared and analyzed by Stewart Labs in their facilities in Mexico and Kamloops, Canada, respectively.

"We are very pleased that over 45% of the samples taken yielded significant silver values, which suggests the project has an exciting silver potential," commented Johannes Petersen, President of Gold American. "The program focused on locating, measuring and sampling of historical workings and geological mapping of the property. The assay results will be incorporated into the existing data set to define the next steps to be carried out on the property," added Mr. Petersen.

La Escondida Property Summary

La Escondida property is located approximately 124 miles northeast of the city of Hermosillo in Sonora State, Mexico. The property is located in a region that has seen significant recent activity by foreign mining companies. It is located 19 miles southwest of NYSE-listed Yamana Gold Inc.s Mercedes project, a development stage gold-silver project which is expected to start production at a rate of approximately 120,000 gold equivalent ounces per year from 2012. The La Escondida project is also located 18 miles south of Cerro Prieto project of Oroco Resources Corp., which recently reported 383,833 ozs gold and over 6 million ounces of silver reserves.

The property is host to two distinct mineralized targets associated to a fault: a bulk tonnage-style gold-silver-lead disseminated area and a high-grade epithermal vein-hosted silver and gold area. Small gambusino-style workings occur at different points on these targets, where historical sampling returned selected results as high as 1.85g/t Gold and 908.69 g/t Silver. The high-grade vein-hosted silver and gold target consists of two veins. One vein is exposed over an area at least 800m long and is reported to be 3-5 meters wide. The second vein is exposed over an area at least 500m long and is reported to be 1-2 meters wide. The disseminated zone is found between these two veins, approximately 100 meters wide. These zones are open both along strike and at depth.
