VG (visible gold) observed in hole GR -18-04
Hole GR-18-03 intersected gold mineralization at depth, tested the Magnetic anomaly in the center
of the property, and expands the quality of the mineral resource along the plunge of the deposit. A
new finding in hole GR-18-04 shows an unusual geological context with a strong reddish(hematised)
silicified conglomerate with disseminated sulfides including visible gold (VG) grains. The discovery
opens new ground at a much shallower depth than was initially expected at this position on the
Granada
property. The new finding of Hole GR-18-04 to the north-west is located at 600 metres
from surface which open new sector for exploration.
"The GR-18-03 high-grade intercept over a significant core length continue expanding the quality of
our mineralized zone at
Granada
." stated
Frank J. Basa P.Eng
., President and Chief Executive
Officer of Granada Gold Mine.
At the time of this press release, three holes had been completed for 2178 meters with a fourth in
progress.

Core length, not capped FA=Standard Fire assay, SM Screen Metallic 1kg
Not all the core has been analyzed, these are partial results only. The Company considers this
discovery to be significant and a potential game changer in the evolution of
Granada
and has taken
the decision to disclose the assays already received. As more results come in, a similar
determination will be made regarding immediate release.
QA/QC
Core samples were logged by GoldMinds geologists then cut in half using a rock saw at the
Granada
site by Technominex technicians. Standards and blanks were inserted in the sequence at
every 20 samples. Standard preparation was completed at ALS Rouyn-Noranda with gold analysis
conducted in
Val d'Or
while multi element assays were completed in
Vancouver
. For the new gold
discovery, a special preparation with screen metallic of 1 kg was used due to visible gold being
observed within the core. The standards and blanks are in line with expected values and allow for
the public disclosure of these analytical results.

About Granada Gold Mine Inc.
Granada Gold Mine Inc. is continuing to develop the Granada Gold Property near
Rouyn-Noranda,
Quebec
. The property includes the former
Granada
gold mine which produced more than 50,000
ounces of gold at 10 grams per tonne gold in the 1930's before a fire destroyed the surface
buildings. The property has 120,000 meters of drilling completed to date which has been focused on
the extended LONGBARS zone which trends 2 kilometers east west over a potential 5.5 kilometers
mineralized structure. The highly prolific
Cadillac Trend
, the source of 50 million plus ounces of gold
production in the past century, cuts right through the north part of the
Granada
property on a line
running from
Val-d'Or
to
Rouyn-Noranda Quebec
.
The Company is in possession of all permits required to commence the initial mining phase known as
the "Rolling Start" to production with stripping underway. Exploration drilling is ongoing with the goal
of increasing the mineral resource at
Granada
. Additional information is available at
