Wayside's Trench Sampling Returns 30 Feet of 26.8 g/T Gold in Trench 1 and 9 Feet of 97.4 g/T Gold in Trench 2

International Wayside Gold Mines Ltd. ("Wayside", the "Company")
(TSX VENTURE: WYG)(FRANKFURT: IWUB) announced today that the
database of results from both the 2009 infill drill program (Please
see News Releases Dated September 17, October 5, October 7, October
14 and October 26 for more detailed information) and 148 channel
samples from three trenches on the surface of the Bonanza Ledge
gold deposit were sent to Mintec Inc., an independent consulting
company contracted to upgrade the resource at the Bonanza Ledge
deposit.
The Company sampled three trenches, which totalled 55 meters
(180 feet) long, to provide metallurgical and ore zone data for
oxidized mineralization at bedrock. The trenches ranged from 5.5 to
11.3 metres (18 to 37 feet) wide at the toe and were from 4.6 to
6.1 metres (15 to 20 feet) deep.
The trenching was highly successful in defining the top of
portions of the gold deposit, and in showing that the high grades
encountered in the drilling, continue to the top of bedrock. The
following summarizes the results, while detailed descriptions are
found in Table 1.
- Trench 1 - Northeast side of the proposed Bonanza Ledge open
pit mine
-- 9 ft @ 11.0 g/T in channel closest to collapse
-- 3 ft @ 23.8 g/T in channel 10 feet east of the first
channel
Most of trench one was completed north of the main
mineralization trend. In its southern extension, strongly sericite
altered argillite carried good gold grades.
- Trench 1-South - East and southeast of the center of the
proposed open pit
-- 30 ft @ 26.8 g/T in channel closest to the proposed open
pit
-- 15 ft @ 18.3 g/T in channel 10 feet east of the first
channel
- Trench 2 - Southwest of the proposed open pit
-- 9 ft @ 97.4 g/T in channel closest to proposed open pit
-- 15 ft @ 26.7 g/T in channel 10 feet to the west of the first
channel
-- 6 ft @ 19.6 g/T in channel 20 feet to the west of the first
channel
-- 9 ft @ 7.1 g/T also in the channel 20 feet to the west of the
first channel
The second trench exposed the strongly graphitic Footwall Fault
and vein near its southern end. Immediately north of this fault,
the argillite is bleached white, shows extreme sericite alteration,
and returned very strong gold grades, up to 146 g/T.
- Trench 3 - Centered approximately 45.7 meters (150 feet) east
of the proposed open pit
-- 6 ft @ 11.3 g/T in channel just west of the center of the
trench
-- Several scattered samples between 1 g/T and 5 g/T
The third trench exposes an area of transition, from weak gold
mineralization to the immediate west, and strong gold bearing
mineralization to the east. Near the middle of the trench, a
northerly trending zone of quartz was encountered, suggesting that
a northerly fault is controlling the mineralization. There was also
a graphitic quartz vein in the southwest corner of the trench,
which might be an offset extension of the Footwall Fault.
The contact between the overburden toe and the bedrock was
surveyed with a theodolite, as was the crest, which provided
elevation data for the bedrock surface and overburden thickness.
The channel sample lines were 3.0 metres (10 feet) apart, with
samples collected every 0.9 metres (3 feet) along the lines. Since
metallurgical tests were anticipated, sample volumes averaged one
half of a five gallon bucket. Concurrent with the sampling, the
geology of the bedrock surface was mapped.
A total of 148 samples were collected from the trenches and sent
to Eco Tech Laboratory Ltd., in Kamloops, B.C., for 28-element ICP
geochemistry, plus gold by fire assay with atomic absorption
finish.
