Golden Predator Corp.: Classic Zone Drilling Intersects 41.2 m of 1.04 g/t Gold, Brewery Creek Project, Yukon
Whitehorse, Yukon, November 5th, 2012: Golden Predator Corp. (TSX: GPD) (the ”Company”) is pleased to announce results from 1 diamond and 18 reverse circulation drill holes from the Classic Zone at its Brewery Creek Project located near Dawson City, Yukon. The Classic Zone is a near surface, bulk tonnage metallurgically favorable target located along the Classic Fault, which is mineralized for more than 6 km along strike. These new holes encountered higher grades than previous drilling, and increase the Company’s understanding of the Classic Zone. The Company is working to release an updated resource estimate on the Brewery Creek Project later this year, that will include the over 30,000 m of drilling completed in 2012.
Significant results include:
• RC12-2499 with 140.2 m of 0.34 g/t gold from surface including 21.3 m of 0.50 g/t gold, 13.7 m of 0.59 g/t gold and 18.3 m of 0.57 g/t gold;
• RC12-2500 with 30.5 m of 0.84 g/t gold from a depth of 35.1 m;
• RC12-2500 with 41.2 m of 1.04 g/t gold from a depth of 131.1 m including 3.1 m of 4.25 g/t gold;
• RC12-2506 with 33.5 m of 0.95 g/t gold from a depth of 99.1 m including 6.1 m of 3.20 g/t gold; and
• RC12-2513 with 19.8 m of 0.71 g/t gold from a depth of 260.6 m.

Classic Zone
The Classic Zone, host to a NI 43-101 compliant Inferred resource, lies approximately 3.0 km south of the main Reserve Trend and, together with the newly discovered Lone Star Zone, demonstrates the discovery potential of the entire southern portion of the large Brewery Creek Property. Centrally located in the Project area, the Classic Zone is immediately northwest of the Lonestar Zone, approximately 7.0 km west of the Sleeman Zone and 6.5 km southwest of the Bohemian-Schooner Zone.
Preliminary metallurgical characterization tests at Classic indicate all mineralization to have high CN (cyanide) amenabilities. Over 400 samples with > 0.2 g/t gold were submitted for metallurgical testing, and more than half returned cyanide solubilities in excess of 80% with low preg-robbing characteristics (all less than 10%). Column leach tests are currently underway.
The Classic Zone is open at depth and both directions along strike but is cut off to the east by the northwest trending Classic Fault.
Brewery Creek Project Overview
Brewery Creek hosts a NI 43-101 compliant resources of 581,000 indicated gold ounces in 20.417 million tonnes at 0.89 g/t and 346,000 inferred gold ounces in 12.990 million tonnes at 0.83 g/t (Barr, 2012; GPD NR 12-20 June 18, 2012). The Company also recently secured a USD $35 million debt facility to advance Brewery Creek towards production (GPD NR 12-27 September 27, 2012). The Company anticipates publishing an updated resource estimate incorporating the current year’s drilling later in the year.
The Brewery Creek Project is a past producing heap leach gold mining operation with a total of 278,484 oz Au produced from seven near-surface oxide deposits along the property's Reserve Trend from 1996 through 2002, when the mine (operated by Viceroy Resource Corporation) shut down primarily due to low gold prices. The 200 km2 property is located 55 km due east of Dawson City, accessible by paved and gravel roads from the junction of the North Klondike and Dempster Highways.
The Project is in receipt of all necessary permits required to conduct additional exploration. The Brewery Creek Project holds a Type A Water License with an expiry date of December 31, 2021, subject to the restrictions and conditions contained in the Yukon Water Act and Regulations. The Project also holds a Quartz Mining License (QML) with an expiry date of December 31, 2021. The Company is working to amend the Water License and the QML to incorporate current mine planning and design studies which are currently underway. In addition, a restated and amended Socio-Economic Accord with Tr’ondek Hwech’in First Nation with respect to the Brewery Creek Project is in place.

Sampling Methodology, Quality Control and Assurance
Samples were fire assayed for gold by ALS Chemex and ACME Laboratories in Vancouver. All assays are reported as drilled intervals and are not to be interpreted as true widths. Refer to the Company’s news release dated October 27, 2011 for a complete discussion of sampling methods, quality control and assurance.
The technical content of this news release has been reviewed and approved by Michael Maslowski, BSc, CPG, the Company's Chief Operating Officer and a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43‐101.

Sheriff, Chairman & CEO. Mr. Legg will remain as a member of the Board of Directors.
