GoldQuest Mining Corp. (TSX VENTURE:GQC)(FRANKFURT:M1W) ("GoldQuest" or the
"Company") is pleased to announce the start of a 1,200 metre, ten diamond drill
holes program on its 100% owned La Escandalosa Concession, in the San Juan
province of Dominican Republic, which is scheduled to commence November 15,
2011. 


The program will be focused on testing lateral extensions of the southern part
of the known mineralization at La Escandalosa Sur and confirmatory infill
drilling of the same zone. The drill program is based on the recent Block Model
developed by the engineering consultants, Micon International Limited ("Micon"),
and is designed to increase drilling density on the identified mineralization.
GoldQuest further intends the results of the program to be used to upgrade
GoldQuest's current NI 43-101 compliant inferred resources (4.86 million tonnes
grading 2.60 g/t gold at 0.3 g/t cut off), effective November 9, 2010, which was
posted by the Company under its profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com on November
16, 2010. 


Julio Espaillat, GoldQuest President and CEO, commented, "Drilling at the
southern part of La Escandalosa Sur zone had returned excellent results such as
53.0m @ 3.02 g/t gold, including 16.0m @ 9.39 g/t gold in hole LTP-41
(previously announced in a press release dated July 6, 2010). Following Micon's
recommendations, this drilling is intended to upgrade parts of the known
resource towards the indicated and/or measured categories, and to further expand
the previous estimations." 


GoldQuest Mining Corp. and Energold Drilling Corp. have entered into a diamond
drilling contract to carry out a 1,200 meter drill program at the La Escandalosa
Sur property starting November 15th, 2011. This phase of drilling is expected to
continue into early 2012.


Also the Company recently received the report on the Induced Polarization
survey, completed on the La Escandalosa Project, including Hondo Valle, 1.2 kms
north of La Escandalosa Sur, where the highlights included 29.0 m @ 2.18 g/t
gold, including 17.0 m @ 3.45 g/t gold (Previously published on PR of May 16,
2011). The potential quantity and grade is conceptual in nature, there has been
insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource, and it is uncertain if
further exploration will result in similar results and/or a target being further
delineated as a mineral resource. The 77.75 line kilometers survey covered an
area of approximately 15 square kilometers. The survey delineated three
chargeable zones, being the main zone a North - South corridor of low
resistivity with a delineated extension in excess of 3.5 kilometers and
coincident to the known mineralization. The Company is carrying out ground
follow up, and the results will be presented in subsequent releases. These IP
anomalies open a series of new targets that are anticipated to be tested by
drilling early next year. 


We are pleased to answer the calls of our shareholders and get the drills
turning again. We are committed to taking the right steps to move our project
forward and with interpretation of our Induced Polarization results by Quantec
Geoscience, ongoing Metallurgical testing by Research Development Inc ("RDI")
and our new Block Model by Micon we have been able to do so.
