Fondaway Canyon Project Claim Area Increased By 50%

VANCOUVER - Getchell Gold Corp. has increased the size of the Fondaway Canyon project, its advanced exploration stage gold property, by 50% through staking. The Company has staked an additional 75 claims, for 600 hectares (1,480 acres), bringing the total claim group to 246 claims, for 1,785 hectares (4,412 acres). The extended claim package now spans 7 kms (4.5 miles) East-West and 3 kms (2 miles) North-South.

The expanded claim boundary provides Getchell sole control of the entire Fondaway Canyon gold corridor and mineralizing system, with room to significantly expand the mineral resource and conceptual open pits. In addition, provides area to support the infrastructure required for future potential development.
