Goldrush Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:GOD)(OTCQX:GDRRF) ("Goldrush" or the
"Company") is pleased to announce that recent investigations including mapping,
rock sampling and structural interpretation at four previously identified gold
bearing areas on the 244 square kilometer Ouavousse permit in central Burkina
Faso have confirmed the presence of prospective targets for follow-up
exploration. A 2,800 metre reverse circulation drilling program commenced on the
permit on December 5, 2011. 


Commenting on the drill program, Goldrush President and CEO Len Brownlie said:
"The decision to immediately drill several highly prospective targets on
Ouavousse comes as a direct result of recent site visits conducted by Goldrush
exploration staff who have collected rock samples with favourable gold values
from well established artisanal mining sites. On our most recent visit on
November 24, we observed over 250 artisanal workers mining gold bearing quartz
veins that appear to have significant size potential. This combination of
favourable geology, structure and apparent width and strike length have caused
us to accelerate exploration of this permit. Our exploration team, led by Chief
Geologist John Learn and Vice President Driff Cameron have been exceptionally
busy and will have organized drill programs totaling 23,000 metres on six
Goldrush permits during the fall 2011 drilling campaign. All of these programs
will be completed by year-end and assay results from these programs will provide
a steady flow of news into the new year."


It is note-worthy that the Ouavousse permit is immediately west of, and crossed
in part, by the interpreted corridor of the Markoye Fault, a major NNE trending
structural zone (and possible Porcupine-Destor Fault analogue), which has been
traced for over 400 kilometres in Burkina Faso. A number of substantial gold
deposits, two which have been brought into production (Taparko in 2007 and
Essakane in 2010), are associated with the Markoye corridor, as are other
deposits and occurrences.


The main Ouavousse and OTR-1 trench (1.58 g Au/t over 5 metres by Goldrush in
2007) areas occur immediately adjacent to the Markoye Fault on related oblique
structures. A 300 metre long artisanal mining site has developed within the last
two years at the OTR-1 site, as well as two main artisanal site trends of 400
(North trend) and 600 (South trend) metres located 700 metres on strike to the
southwest. The total potential strike length of this structure appears to be at
least 1,700 metres. The North trend provided eight grab samples, composed of
quartz veining and mineralized and deformed granodiorite, which ranged from
7.13, 6.16, 5.72, 2.2 to 0.44 g Au/t, averaging 3.02 g Au/t. Ten samples from
the auriferous South trend gave values ranging from 0.99 to 0.01 g Au/t, and
averaging 0.39 g Au/t.


In 2009, the permit was extended to the north to include two orpailleur areas.
At Sale, quartz veining in highly deformed host rock has been mined to shallow
depth over a strike length of approximately 365 metres, and at Kooligri A, a 30
metre trend of orpailleur shafts is located about 650 metres north of the
Kooligri B artisanal mining area which is 225 metres long. At both Kooligri
sites, quartz veining is hosted in strongly deformed schist. The five rock
samples from Sale produced values up to 1.25 g Au/t. The two samples from
Kooligri A produced a best value of 1.58 g Au/t, and the seven from Kooligri B
returned a high value of 9.77 g Au/t. A single sample from a small orpailleur
site located between Sale and Kooligri assayed 2.57 g Au/t.


The Poessin area of four mineralized artisanal mining sites, all with shafts in
excess of 30 metres deep, is located approximately seven kilometers northwest of
the Ouavousse/Markoye area occurrences, was extensively sampled in late 2007,
and is noted in Goldrush news releases of April 30, 2008 and February 17, 2009.
Site 1, with grab samples of 9.245 and 1.24 g Au/t at its northeastern end where
the mineralization is covered by laterite, and with samples grading 2.77 and
1.13 g Au/t from a 40 centimetre thick quartz vein about 300 metres to the
southwest, has a strike length potential in excess of 400 metres. Poessin
artisanal site 2 has two trends of 200 and 50 metres, with respective rock
sample high values of 6.02 and 6.80 g Au/t. Site 3 is approximately 400 metres
long and has a grab sample high of 6.045 g Au/t.
