Getting in ahead of the next Yukon gold discovery? Yukon gold explorer, Ethos Gold, received a strong bump Friday as
investors look to acquire a position ahead of the company's first set of drill results. Ethos announced recently that drilling has
commenced on its Betty Gold Property, Yukon Territory. The 2012 exploration program is budgeted at $7.3 million and
primarily consists of a planned 16,000 m of drilling using two drills, and the collection of 10,000 soil samples. Given its
proximity to other Yukon discoveries and successful soil sampling and prospecting program, Ethos is thought to have a good
chance to make the next significant gold discovery in the second-coming of the Yukon gold rush. Ethos' management
highlighted that initial exploration in 2011 on the Betty Gold Property discovered the Mascot Creek gold target, which is
comprised of a ~17 sq km gold-in-soil anomaly that yielded gold in prospecting rock grab samples up to 24.8 g/t Au and gold
intervals in trench pits with the best result averaging 7.3 g/t Au over 50 m. One reverse circulation (RC) rig has commenced
drilling the first of approximately 40 holes totalling 6,000 m, with an additional diamond core rig to be mobilized to begin
drilling as the 2012 program advances. The principal objective of RC drilling is to identify gold grades over width in bedrock
beneath gold-bearing surface trench pits. The diamond core rig will be used to follow up and systematically evaluate gold
mineralization identified in bedrock by RC drilling.
