Cassidy Hits 64.06 G/T Au Over 9.0m at Sanu Filanan, Kouroussa Gold Project, Guinea

Marketwired Canada
Cassidy Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:CDY) is pleased to announce results from reverse
circulation (RC) drilling on its 100%-owned Kouroussa Gold Project, located in
Guinea, West Africa. Drilling continued to focus in and around the high-grade
Sanu Filanan deposit. Highlights include 25.97 g/t Au over 20.0 metres in
KRC1378, 2.94 g/t Au over 48.0 metres in KRC1379, 17.05 g/t Au over 9.0 metres
and 64.06 g/t Au over 9.0 metres in KRC1381, and 12.21 g/t Au over 9.0 metres in
KRC1404. True thicknesses are estimated to be 70% of reported lengths. Drilling
has been suspended for the remainder of the wet season, resuming in early
October.
Sanu Filanan
Seventeen RC holes totalling 1853 metres were completed over the northern
section of the Sanu Filanan zone, to extend, define and upgrade the gold
resource. One hole, KRC1378, drilled at the south end of Sanu Filanan,
intersected 25.97 g/t Au over 20.0 metres, thus upgrading the resource in that
area. Similarly, KRC1379, extended broad, high-grade mineralization (2.94 g/t Au
over 48.0 metres) to surface in the central portion of the deposit. KRC1381 was
successful in highlighting two high-grade intervals on the northwest extension
to the zone. KRC1381 intersected 17.05 g/t Au over 9.0 metres on the western
limb and 64.06 g/t Au over 9.0 metres on the original Sanu Filanan trend. Thirty
metres to the northwest, KRC1404 intersected 12.21 g/t Au over 9.0 metres on the
western limb and 7.40 g/t Au over 5.0 metres and 2.35 g/t Au over 6.0 metres on
the original trend. KRC1403 was collared too far north to intersect the western
limb but did intersect 2.85 g/t Au over 8.0 metres on the original trend.

The western limb of the northwest section of Sanu Filanan remains open and
demonstrates the potential to identify additional high-grade lodes adjacent to
the Sanu Filanan deposit. Other intervals of gold mineralization in the Sanu
Filanan - Sanu Folo intersection also highlight this potential.
Sanu Filanan East
Nineteen RC holes totalling 1821 metres tested the 300 metres of prospective
ground between the Sanu Filanan and JJ Vein deposits. Previous drilling had
suggested the possibility of narrow but high-grade zones between the two main
mineralized structures. Latest drilling has confirmed this potential. Highlights
include 14.49 g/t Au over 5.0 metres in KRC1302, 12.20 g/t Au over 2.0 metres in
KRC1291, and 2.20 g/t Au over 7.0 metres in KRC1284. Significant mineralization
adjacent to the Sanu Filanan and JJ deposits would enhance the mining economics
of the deposits. More definition drilling is required to bring this
mineralization into resource.

Sanu Filanan Extension
North of the Sanu Folo structure, a program of 24 RC drill holes and several
diamond tails totalling 3052 metres was completed in two main areas. Immediately
north of Sanu Folo, the main Sanu Filanan structure extends to the edge of the
Koekoe gabbro. The best result is 1.44 g/t Au over 8.0 metres in KRC1406. Two
hundred metres further north, Sanu Filanan Extension is a separate zone, widely
dispersed in the saprolite. Recent drilling tested the zone further to depth,
demonstrating the continuity of mineralization to depth and the multiplicity of
zones. Interpretation of this zone is progressing. Highlights include 0.89 g/t
Au over 8.0 metres, 1.41 g/t Au over 4.0 metres, and 1.76 g/t Au over 5.0 metres
in KRC1375.

(i) diamond drill core
An updated location map will be posted on www.cassidygold.com shortly.
The Sanu Filanan deposit consists of near surface, potentially open-pittable,
mainly oxide resource, outlined over a strike length of 900 metres. In September
2006, RSG Global Consulting estimated an indicated resource of 161,000 ounces of
gold in 1,552,000 tonnes grading 3.2 g/t Au and an additional inferred resource
of 205,000 ounces in 2,811,000 tonnes grading 2.3 g/t Au. An independent
technical report describing the details of the resource study is posted at
www.sedar.com.
Next Steps
The current phase of resource drilling is now complete for the remainder of the
wet season. Drilling is planned to resume in October. RSG Global Consulting has
been retained to complete resource modelling and deliver an updated resource
estimate by early October. SENET (Pty) Ltd. of South Africa and RSG Global
Consulting have been retained to complete a Scoping Study for Kouroussa based on
the updated resource. Completion of the scoping study is projected for January
2008. An Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) program is planned to
begin in October 2007.
Sampling and Assay Procedures
RC drill samples were collected from the cyclone and split using a 1 in 8 riffle
splitter down to approximately 2.5 kilograms in size. A rock saw split HQ size
drill core samples over sample lengths of 0.5 to 1.5 metres. All samples were
sent to the SGS analytical laboratory in Siguiri, Guinea for further sample
preparation and fire assay using a 50-gram sub sample. Along with SGS internal
quality control procedures, external field duplicates, blanks and certified
standards are undertaken over 5% of all sampling. Quality control/quality
assurance is closely monitored by RSG Global Consulting personnel.
