Meadow Bay Gold Corporation ("Meadow Bay Gold") (TSX VENTURE: MAY)(OTCQX: MAYGF) is pleased to report assay results from its first two core drill holes of our confirmatory drilling program at the Atlanta Gold Mine, Lincoln County, Nevada.

The purpose of the first two drill holes was to test for thickness and grade of gold and silver mineralization beneath the past producing Atlanta Pit which was closed in 1985 due to low gold prices. The mineralization occurs in a jasperoid fault breccia between overlying Tertiary volcanic rocks and Paleozoic sedimentary rocks.

Below is a table summarizing the drill results:

The purpose of this initial drilling program is to confirm the historic indicated resource that exists on the project. Both Kinross and Gold Fields had extensive drilling programs at Atlanta in the 1990s. The first 6 core holes will either twin existing holes or drill below remaining mineralization in the historic open pit. Consequent core and RC step-out and exploration drilling will test both fault-controlled mineralization to the north as well as intrusive-hosted mineralization to the southwest of the pit. Meadow Bay Gold has engaged the firm Gustavson Associates, LLC of Boulder, Colorado to review the current and historic data with a view to preparing a updated estimate of the gold and silver resources pursuant to National Instrument 43-101.
