Golden Chalice Resources Inc.(TSX VENTURE: GCR) ("The Company") is pleased to provide an exploration update on its Portage property, located in the Bathurst district of New Brunswick. The Bathurst base metal mining district also includes the current producer Brunswick #12 mine one of the largest zinc/lead/silver massive sulphide deposits in the world (150 million tons grading approximately 12% Zn, 3,5% Pb, 3 oz. Ag, and 0.4% Cu/ton).

Previous drilling on the Portage property intersected Zn-Pb-Cu-Ag mineralization within and in the vicinity of the Portage Brook sulphide zone. Additional drilling is required on this zone where one drill hole intersected 47 metres of 2.3% Zn.

A subsequent drill hole on an airborne anomaly over 1 km to the south of the Portage zone intersected approximately 60 metres of massive to disseminated sulphides in a chloritic alteration zone. This type of mineralization elsewhere in the Bathurst district is generally only encountered near significant base metal mineralization.

"The Company has flown more than 600 line kilometers of airborne VTEM surveying which has led to the identification of over 50 anomalies. Only six of these anomalies have been tested to date, three of which have returned low grade sulphides in drill core," comments Company President, John Keating. "These VTEM anomalies, which are currently being defined with a MMI geochemical sampling program, will be the focus our next drill program."

The current work program consists of MMI geochemical sampling along the favourable geological trends and over airborne electromagnetic anomalies. Approximately 750 samples will be collected and submitted for analyses. Results of the geochemical survey will assist in anomaly selection and target delineation for the 2010 field program. Diamond drilling and trenching are planned.

Terry Mersereau, PGeo, is the qualified person for the purposes of National Instrument 43-101 for the Company's Portage property. The contents of the press release have been reviewed and approved by Terry Mersereau.

The Portage Property

The Portage claims comprise approximately 12 km of favourable volcanic stratigraphy for hosting a Bathurst type massive sulphide deposit.

About Golden Chalice

Along with its Portage property the Company's continues to focus on its flagship Langmuir Project where 2007 drilling intersected 72 meters of 1.14% nickel. The Langmuir Project is easily accessible by road and is near existing mining infrastructure in the Timmins camp, host to numerous world-class gold and base metal deposits. The Company owns 100% of the property which covers more than 30 km of favorable stratigraphy with potential for hosting Kambalda-style deposits.
