"On March 3rd,
2008 King’s Bay Gold Corporation and its 50 / 50 joint-venture
partner, Mainstream Minerals Corporation announced the
commencement of a large 15,000 metre Phase 2 diamond drilling
program at their high-grade gold Bobjo Mine Project. This
project is the site of a number of recent discoveries made
during a 5,300 metre Phase 1 diamond drilling program in 2007
that included: (i) high-grade gold in almost every one of its
Phase 1 holes and (ii) an unexpected strategic rare metals and
rare earth elements zone. This new rare metals and rare earth
discovery could possibly prove to be very valuable because up
until now 97 % of the World’s rare earth metal supply
originated from the People’s Republic of China."
Overview
King’s Bay Gold Corporation is a very active
Canadian mineral resource company, which is engaged in the
acquisition of interests in, and the exploration of, mineral
resource properties in North West Ontario. The Corporation’s
mandate is to acquire, evaluate and bring significant gold and
other precious metal properties to the development stage.
During the last ten years, the Corporation has been assembling
a portfolio of precious metal exploration prospects most
notably in the Red Lake and Pickle Lake gold camps, the
majority of which are located in close proximity of present
and past producing mines. Certain of these properties exhibit
high-grade gold values.
King’s Bay Gold is unique in the industry in that it owns most
of the equipment required to carry out the various phases of
exploration. This includes diamond drills, bulldozers and
other exploration equipment, which gives the company the
ability to quickly adjust work programs as exploration results
are realized and company strategies change.

Commencement in early
March 2008 of a large 15,000 metre Phase 2 diamond drilling
program at the Company's high-grade gold Bobjo Mine Project.
Assay results will be announced when received and verified.
-
The area around the Bobjo
Mine Project has a long history of gold and base metal
production dating back 80 years. It is noted that the Bobjo
Mine Project is located between two past producing mines –
the South Bay Zinc / Copper Mine and the Uchi Lake Gold Mine
(100,000 ounces produced). The land package is currently
comprised of 259 claim units totaling 10,360 acres. The
company and its joint venture partner are looking to
increase the size of this land package.
-
The Headway Group of
Patented Claims Property is located less than 400 metres
southwest of Goldcorp’s Red Lake High Grade Zone, which is
often referred to as the world’s richest gold mine.

contains high-grade gold occurrences, including 2.74 oz/ton
gold over 2.0 feet and 0.61 oz/ton gold over 3.08 feet in
drill core (H-13) and several surface grab samples exceeding
1 oz/ton gold.
-
Some industry observers
believe that Goldcorp’s High Grade Zone dips to the
southwest towards the Headway Group of Patented Claims and
traverses these claims at depth. This belief has been
heightened by the fact that Goldcorp has acquired or staked
all of the lands available around the Headway land package.

Bobjo Mine
Searching For: Gold, Rare Metals and Rare Earth Elements
Location – Approximately 45 kilometres east-north-east of
the Town of Ear Falls, Ontario in Earngey and Agnew Townships.
Number of Claims & Acres – 9 patented claim units and 250
unpatented claim units for 10,360 acres
Ownership Interests – 50 % King’s Bay Gold Corporation and 50
% Mainstream Minerals Corporation
Operator – Mainstream Minerals Corporation
On March 3rd, 2008, King’s Bay Gold Corporation and Mainstream
Minerals Corporation announced the commencement of its largest
exploration program ever at one project which will involve
15,000 metres of drilling using two machines with one being a
large machine from an independent drilling contractor equipped
for deep drilling. King’s Bay and Mainstream are also in the
process of acquiring more ground.
The initial 2007 Phase 1 exploration program of 5,300 metres
included a new high-grade gold discovery with gold being
intersected in almost every hole. It also included a new rare
metals and rare earth elements discovery that could possibly
prove to be very valuable because of the ever-increasing
industrial and consumer demand for such materials.
The decision to commence this large Phase 2 drilling program
came about after an extensive study and compilation of all
available government and geophysical data outlining numerous
positive drill targets. The joint venture partners also want
to follow-up the results achieved in the very successful
initial 2007 Phase 1 diamond drilling program. The work
presently being carried out by the partners represents the
first modern, systematic exploration of this property since
1929. This property hosted a past producer in 1929. A two
compartment shaft was sunk to 270 feet with two levels.
Mineralization at the Bobjo Mine consists of quartz veins and
stringers situated along a large flexure in a north-trending
quartz-feldspar porphyry dike which includes metavolcanis
flows.
Phase 2 Bobjo Drill Targets
Many drill targets have been established and prioritized. The
first three drill targets will include:
1) Follow up drilling in the area of the new high-grade gold
discovery.
2) Follow up drilling in the area of the new rare metals and
rare earth elements discovery.
3) Testing of a large Magnetic High located approximately
2,000 metres to the south of the old Bobjo Mine shaft where
two conductors crisscross in the middle. Two parallel faults
and two parallel cross faults also meet up at this same
location. It is also located along a contact where the mafic
volcanic rocks meet up with an intermediate to felsic volcanic
zone. This target is on strike and in close proximity to the
past producing Uchi Gold Mine.

All of these metals and minerals listed in (b) above have
significant economic and strategic value and depending on
purity and lot size, may range in price from $15.00 US per
kilogram for lanthanum metal, to $30,000.00 US per kilogram
($30.00 US per gram) for scandium metal. Some of these metals
like Rubidium, which is not actively traded, have sold for as
much as $58.20 US per gram. The data found within the news
release was collected from the United States Geological Survey
(USGS) minerals information site.
The joint venture is 50 % Kings Bay Gold and 50 %
Mainstream Minerals Corporation with Mainstream Minerals being
the Operator of the project. Geologist John Archibald, A.P.G.O.
is the Qualified Person under National Instrument 43-101 for
this project. The samples herein were analyzed by SGS Canada
Inc.’s laboratory.
Complete gold, rare metals and rare earth elements assay
results can be seen on the company’s website at
www.kingsbaygold.com and on a news release dated January
8th, 2008. The rare metals and rare earth elements discovery
zone is located along a fault structure with an approximate
ten-kilometre strike length.
The area has a long history of gold and base metal production
dating back 80 years. It is noted that the Bobjo Mine Project
is located between two past producing mines – the South Bay
Zinc / Copper Mine and the Uchi Lake Gold Mine. An existing
power line passes through the southern part of the property
and the property itself is within trucking distance to the
Placer Dome / Goldcorp Mill in Red Lake, Ontario. The land
package is currently comprised of 259 claim units totaling
10,360 acres. Assay results will be announced when received
and verified.
Headway Group of Patented Claims
Property in Red Lake, Ontario
Searching For: Gold
Location – Between the Towns of Red Lake and Balmertown,
Ontario. The property is transected by the road connecting the
two towns and lies in the shadow of the Red Lake headframes,
located less than 400 metres southwest of Goldcorp’s Red Lake
High Grade Zone.
Number of Claims & Acres – 6 patented claims and 1 unpatented
claim for approximately 320 acres
Ownership Interests – 75 % King’s Bay Gold Corporation, 15 %
Richview Resources Inc. and 10 % Palomino Mining & Exploration
Ltd.
Operator – King’s Bay Gold Corporation
This joint venture project is probably the most strategically
located land package in all of Canada being located directly
adjacent and southwest of Canada’s richest gold mine (Goldcorp’s
Red Lake Mine) where the Goldcorp high-grade zone also dips to
the southwest towards the Headway Group of Patented Claims and
traverses these claims at depth. The Headway Group of Patented
Claims Property is located less than 400 metres southwest of
Goldcorp’s Red Lake High Grade Zone, which is often referred
to as the world’s richest gold mine. This belief has been
heightened by the fact that Goldcorp has acquired or staked
all of the lands available around the Headway land package.
King’s Bay Gold believes that the Headway Group of Patented
Claims contains all of the essential geological elements
associated with the ore on the adjacent mine properties, that
being well-developed shear zones, high grade gold values at
shallow depths as well as mafic, ultra-mafic and intrusive
rocks. The Headway project contains high-grade gold
occurrences, including 2.74 oz/ton gold over 2.0 feet and 0.61
oz/ton gold over 3.08 feet in drill core (H-13) and several
surface grab samples exceeding 1 oz/ton gold. Gold is
developed within quartz-carbonate +/- tourmaline +/-
arsenopyrite veins associated with quartz-feldspar porphyry
dykes that intrude altered and sheared mafic volcanics. The
property contains two east-west trending, gold-bearing
structural zones; the 4000 ft x 1000 ft Headway Shear Zone and
the 2300 ft x 50 ft Main Zone, the property has been subjected
to only limited and shallow diamond drilling.
Details of the company’s past drilling programs on this
property, Phases I to IV, can be found on pages 42 to 46
(inclusive) in the Annual Information Form of June 15th, 2007
for 2006 as filed on
www.sedar.com
on June 28th, 2007.
Highlights of the exploration programs for Phases I to IV
at the Headway Project have included:
Diamond drilling by the Company in 2003 and 2004
intersected high-grade gold at near surface, drilling
highlights included 4.15 g/t Au over 10.80 metres, 6.33 g/t Au
over 1.2 metres, 8.25 g/t Au over 0.50 metres, 6.62 g/t Au
over 0.50 metres, 7.48 g/t Au over 0.50 metres, 5.85 g/t Au
over 0.60 metres, and the deepest intersection of 63.52 g/t Au
over 0.50 metres at a depth of 60 metres.
The Main Zone on the west side of the highway was not
drilled in 2003 and 2004 and will require follow-up drilling
in the future. The company is presently evaluating the
possibility of a future aggressive deep drilling program, but
would need to conduct a large financing in order to do so.

section of these claims are contiguous to the Dona Lake Mine,
which produced 212,000 ounces of gold, the Central Patricia a
650,000 ounce producer and the Pickle Crow Gold Mines, which
produced 1,446,000 ounces. This new land package hosts
numerous gold showings, significant historical drill
intersects and historical mine shafts. The joint-venture’s
claim group makes it the largest landholder of the Central
Patricia, Pickle Crow and Dona Lake mine trends.
In January 2005, the Corporation announced
that it had just received the final gold assay results of the
final holes drilled during the 2004 Pickle Lake joint-venture
drilling program. The Corporation reported that the diamond
drill holes intersected numerous gold bearing zones at near
surface (0 to 500 feet) in a large mineralized banded iron
formation that may be amenable to open pit mining. A total of
35 holes were drilled from June 1 to December 31, 2004 at a
cost of approximately $1,000,000 and Accurassay Laboratories
in Thunder Bay, ON assayed all of the samples.
Highlights of this 2004 drilling program included 11.059 g/t
across 10.0 feet, 3.789 g/t across 10.0 feet, 4.023 g/t across
5.0 feet, 2.199 g/t across 22.5 feet, 9.634 g/t across 4.0
feet, 4.075 g/t 8.0 feet, 3.571 g/t across 7.5 feet, 4.021 g/t
across 5.0 feet, 5.778 g/t across 5.0 feet, 7.007 g/t across
10 feet and 7.311 g/t across 20.0 feet.
The partners are presently compiling data before going ahead
with another drilling program. Other companies are also
presently conducting exploration programs in the immediate
area.

The area is also host to many base metal and platinum
occurrences. King’s Bay can drill this project at any time but
will wait to see more diamond results from their neighbor
before commencing with another exploration program at the
property.
Swell Bay Property in
Halkirk and Farrington Townships, Kenora District, Ontario
Searching For: Gold
Location – Overlapping the common borders of Halkirk and
Farrington Townships, Kenora Mining Division of Ontario in the
Fort Frances, Ontario area.
Number of Claims & Acres – 6 patented claim units for 240
acres
Ownership Interests – 100 % King’s Bay Gold Corporation

This property's most prominent geological feature is a
northeast trending valley traversing the full length of the
claim block. The Swell Bay deformation zone is approximately
500 metres wide and lies between the two creeks that occupy
what is presumed by many geologists to be the remnants of
faults, whose scarps were later rounded off by erosion
following those periods of ground movement. Several of the
known gold-bearing quartz structures are often visible along
the scarps bordering this shatter zone. Most gold showings
appear to be associated with quartz veins in fractures or in
mineralized shear zones.
Pipestone / Dash Lake

Ontario.
Number of Claims & Acres – 226 claim units for 9,040 acres
Ownership Interests – 100 % King’s Bay Gold Corporation
Operator – King’s Bay Gold Corporation
This property hosts a large number of Uranium occurrences that
correlate with a new government Radiometric Survey that has
identified many new radiometric anomalies. Two parallel faults
also traverse the claims in a southeast to northwest
direction. All of the uranium showings are located south of
the main fault system traversing the property. It also hosts
many zinc, copper, silver and molybdenum showings. These
surface occurrences are also correlated by a government
Airborne Radiometric Survey that has identified many new
uranium radiometric anomalies that the company believes could
be instrumental in assisting it in locating additional uranium
showings. Other companies are presently exploring and getting
significant results in the area around this project.
Woman Lake North of
South Bay in Goodall Township, Red Lake District, Ontario
Searching For: Gold
Location – These claims are near Woman Lake in
Goodall Township, Red Lake District, Ontario which is
approximately 50 kilometres east-north-east of the Town of Ear

On February 20th, 2007, the Corporation and
Mainstream Minerals Corporation as 50 / 50 joint-venture
partners announced the acquisition by way of staking of 90
claim units (3,600 acres) near Woman Lake in Goodall Township,
Red Lake District, Ontario. This new property was staked on
its geological merits after a thorough review of historical
data on the area from the government assessment files. Many
gold-bearing quartz veins, stringers and shear zones are known
to exist on this prospect. The setting is deemed exceptionally
favorable and has not been systematically explored using the
new technologies. These claims are located about 3 kilometres
north of the South Bay Mine which once produced approximately
1.6 million tons of 1.5 % copper and 10.0 % zinc. There are
six past producing gold operations within a 12 kilometre
radius of these claims as well as numerous gold occurrences
that are documented in geological reports and government
publications.

gold from the 8,828 tons extracted (= 0.41 oz Au/ton). There
is an estimated 50,000 tons remaining in the deposit. It is
open along strike in both directions and at depth. The
property has seen limited exploration since 1902 and most of
the past drill holes were at shallow depths. King’s Bay
announced in early May, 2008 that a 10,000 metre diamond drill
program commenced at its 100% owned Sakoose Gold Mine Project. The primary
target will be to identify the possible extension of this gold
deposit.
Other zones outside the original underground workings were
discovered in 1988 but were not systematically followed-up.
Some of these holes are indicating a possible down plunge
extension of the main zone to the west and will need to be
followed-up.
The west extension drill hole results included:
SAK-21: 5.91 g/t Gold across 0.91 metres at a depth of 75
metres
SAK-01: 12.44 g/t Gold across 0.30 metres at a depth of 85
metres.
SAK-04: 9.33 g/t Gold across 6.80 metres at a depth of 86
metres
SAK-22: 48.21 g/t Gold across 1.07 metres at a depth of 118
metres
SAK-06: 146.48 g/t Gold across 0.24 metres at a depth of 152
metres
The east extension drill hole results included:
SAK-07: 3.42 g/t Gold across 1.40 metres at a depth of 13
metres
SAK-08: 3.73 g/t Gold across 0.76 metres at a depth of 17
metres
SAK-09: 3.11 g/t Gold across 1.04 metres at a depth of 10
metres
SAK-10: 18.66 g/t Gold across 0.52 metres at a depth of 14
metres
SAK-18: 6.22 g/t Gold across 0.76 metres at a depth of 112
metres

Resource Facts
Rare Earth Elements/Rare Earth Metals:
-
Rare earth elements and rare earth metals are,
according to IUPAC, the collection of seventeen chemical
elements in the periodic table, namely scandium, yttrium, and
the fifteen lanthanoids. The former two are included as they
tend to occur with the latter in the same ore deposits.
-
Rare metals and rare earth discoveries are
very valuable because of ever-increasing industrial and
consumer demand for such materials (computer chips, cellular
phones, plasma TVs, lasers, nuclear power industry,
environmental products)
-
Rare earth metals such as lithium are in high
demand, due to the exploding market for hybrid cars. Neodynium
is also enjoying a surge for its place in the hybrid car
market. Lithium ion is a key component in rechargeable
batteries while neodymium is used to make the super magnets
integral to hybrid and electric car technology.
Platinum:
-
Platinum is a chemical element with the atomic
symbol Pt and an atomic number of 78.
-
A heavy, malleable, ductile, precious,
gray-white transition metal, platinum is resistant to
corrosion and occurs in some nickel and copper ores along with
some native deposits.
-
Platinum is used in jewelry, laboratory
equipment, electrical contacts, dentistry, and automobile
emissions control devices.
-
The price of platinum changes along with its
availability, but its price is normally more than 200% of the
price of gold.
Zinc:
-
Zinc is a chemical element in the periodic
table that has the symbol Zn and atomic number 30.
-
Zinc is a moderately reactive, bluish-white
metal that tarnishes in moist air and burns in air with a
bright bluish-green flame, giving off plumes of zinc oxide.
It reacts with acids, alkalis and other non-metals.
-
The most widely used alloy of zinc is brass,
in which copper is alloyed with anywhere from 9% to 45%
zinc, depending upon the type of brass, along with much
smaller amounts of lead and tin. Alloys of 85–88% zinc,
4–10% copper, and 2–8% aluminum find limited use in certain
types of machine bearings. Alloys of primarily zinc with
small amounts of copper, aluminum, and magnesium are useful
in die casting.
Lead:
-
Lead is a chemical element in the
periodic table that has the symbol Pb and atomic number 82.
-
A soft, heavy, toxic and malleable poor
metal, lead is bluish white when freshly cut, but tarnishes
to dull gray when exposed to air. Lead is used in building
construction, lead-acid batteries, bullets and shot, weights
for model railroad cars, and is part of solder, pewter, and
fusible alloys.
Copper:
-
Copper is a chemical element in the periodic
table that has the symbol Cu and atomic number 29. It is a
ductile metal with excellent electrical conductivity, and
finds extensive use as an electrical conductor, heat
conductor, as a building material, and as a component of
various alloys.
Gold:
-
Gold is a chemical element with the symbol
Au and atomic number 79. It is a highly sought-after
precious metal which, for many centuries, has been used as
money, a store of value and in jewelry. The metal occurs as
nuggets or grains in rocks, underground "veins" and in
alluvial deposits. Gold is dense, soft, shiny and the most
malleable and ductile of the known metals.
-
Gold forms the basis for a monetary standard
used by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the Bank
for International Settlements (BIS). The ISO currency code
of gold bullion is XAU. Modern industrial uses include
dentistry and electronics, where gold has traditionally
found use because of its good resistance to oxidative
corrosion.
