Drilling Continues to Intersect Gold Mineralization Near Surface and at Depth on Edgewater's Corcoesto Gold Project, Spain
20 Julho 2011 - 10:30AM
Marketwired
Edgewater Exploration Ltd. (TSX VENTURE: EDW)(OTCQX: EDWZF) -
-- 1.8 g/t gold over 16.7m intersected - confirming wide zone in previous
drilling
-- 6.2 g/t gold over 4.7m intersected - additional results from high grade
zone
-- In-fill drilling further defines known gold zones, mineralization
remains open
Mr. George Salamis, President and CEO of Edgewater Exploration
Ltd. ("Edgewater" or the "Company"), is pleased to provide an
update on the drilling program and exploration activities for the
Company's 100% owned Corcoesto Gold Project ("Corcoesto or the
Project") in Galicia, Spain.
The on-going diamond drilling program has completed 33 drill
holes totalling 8964.15 metres to date. Results for the first 21
drill holes were previously released (see News Releases dated
January 31, 2011 and March 17, 2011).
George Salamis, President and CEO, states, "We are very pleased
with the progress at the Corcoesto Gold Project. Over the past 12
months Edgewater successfully acquired this under explored gold
asset in Galicia, Spain and increased the resource over 400%. These
drill results continue to intersect gold mineralization and further
demonstrate the potential for an economically viable gold project
in Galicia. Edgewater is currently reviewing a number of
development scenarios in our Scoping Study which is on budget and
schedule for early Q4, 2011."

Notes: 1) All reported intercepts are core lengths and true widths
are estimated at 80 per cent of core lengths.
2) Weighted averages calculated using uncut assays.

Recent drilling has focused on the central portion of the Pozo
de Ingles structure. For a detailed drill location map please view
a Corcoesto Plan map on the Company's website at
www.edge-water.com.
An updated 2011 NI 43-101 compliant resource at Corcoesto was
announced on May 31, 2011 (see details in News Release dated May
31, 2011) and consists of a Measured and Indicated resource of
5,783,000 tonnes grading 1.74 g/t Au containing 325,000 ozs gold at
a 0.65 g/t Au cut-off and an Inferred resource of 20,265,000 tonnes
grading 1.76 g/t Au containing 1,149,000 ozs gold. Core recoveries
continue to be excellent in most cases 100%. The current 12,000m
drilling program is designed to expand the existing gold resource
and upgrade a portion of the resource from Inferred to Measured and
Indicated. The NI 43-101 Technical report on the updated resource
estimate was filed on July 15th, 2011.
Work is progressing on the Scoping Study ("Preliminary
Assessment" or "PA") on the Corcoesto Gold Project which will model
the Project using the expanded resource and include the evaluation
of both open pit and underground alternatives and synergies. The PA
is scheduled to be completed early Q4, 2011. One diamond drill rig
(soon to be expanded to two) is currently active on the Corcoesto
Gold Project conducting a program of step-out and infill drilling
to further define the total resource potential on the project. All
exploration activities to date are progressing on budget and ahead
of schedule.
Edgewater has signed an agreement with a local Galician firm
(Guindeira Comunicacion & Eventos) to provide public relations
services and assist company personnel in their on-going community
affairs activities. Starting immediately and continuing over the
coming months a series of meetings and presentations will be
completed with government officials and agencies, local and
regional politicians, community groups, interested parties, and
local residents in a proactive effort to inform and engage all
stakeholders as the Company advances the Corcoesto Project.
Sample preparation and analyses are conducted using industry
standard practices. Samples are delivered to Chemex Lab in Seville,
Spain and sample analyses completed at independent commercial
facilities of ALS Romania for gold and ALS Canada (Vancouver) for
As. Both labs have the certificate of ISO/IEC 17025:2005. Sampling
and analyses include a rigorous Quality Assurance/Quality Control
(QA/QC) program consisting of the insertion of blanks, duplicate
samples, and check assays. A review of the QA/QC results shows no
significant bias and all results are considered highly
reliable.
Mr. Gregory Smith, P.Geo., Vice-President of Exploration of the
Company, is the Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101, and is
responsible for the accuracy of the technical data and information
contained in this news release.
