Riverstone Intersects New Gold Zone at Karma
Riverstone Resources Inc. (TSX-V: RVS) is pleased to report further results from the drill program on the Company’s Karma Project in Burkina Faso, West Africa (see map on website). The holes are part of an on-going RC drill program on the Goulagou I zone of the Karma Project. The program is designed to both fill-in and expand the known mineralization at Goulagou I, which remains open in all directions, especially to the west and at depth.
“The Goulagou I zone continues to expand dramatically,” commented M.D. McInnis. “For Example, Holes 178 and 186 to 189 have encountered a new zone of mineralization along the southern edge of the zone. We are continuing to aggressively drill the deposit to the east and west to determine the limits of the zone. We have not yet tested this deposit at depth below the oxides, but expect that the mineralization continues as it does for the other three deposits that comprise Karma.”
Results have been received from Holes 171 to 191. Significant intervals are reported in the table below:

The Goulagou I zone is part of the Company’s Karma deposit which hosts a NI 43-101 compliant gold resource of 810,000 ounces of gold in the indicated category and 1,119,100 ounces in the inferred category (see news release dated February 28, 2011). The Goulagou property is subject to an Option to Purchase agreement with Golden Star Resources Ltd.
Riverstone maintains a quality control program involving the use of repeat assays, inserted blanks and the use of certified standards from an accredited Canadian laboratory. All RC samples were assayed using standard fire assay with atomic absorption techniques, with samples grading over one gram gold per tonne re-assayed with a gravimetric finish, at the independent Abilab Burkina SARL laboratories in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, which is part of the ALS Chemex group.
Riverstone Resources Inc. is active in gold exploration in Burkina Faso, West Africa, where the company holds an extensive portfolio of six high quality exploration projects covering 2,300 square kilometres.

Forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties which could cause actual events or results to differ from those reflected in the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, risks and uncertainties relating to the interpretation of drill results and the estimation of mineral resources, the geology, grade and continuity of mineral deposits, the possibility that future exploration, development results will not be consistent with the Company’s expectations, accidents, equipment breakdowns, title matters and surface access, labour disputes, the potential for delays in exploration activities, the potential for unexpected costs and expenses, commodity price fluctuations, currency fluctuations, failure to obtain adequate financing on a timely basis and other risks and uncertainties, including those described under Risk Factors in each management discussion and analysis.
