All American Gold Corp. Encouraged by Silver Findings from Goldfield West

All American Gold Corp (OTCBB:AAGC) is pleased to announce it has received results for five reverse circulation holes (GWF1101, 1102, 1103, 1104 and 1105) of a total permitted 21 hole program.

Summary

Drilling was initiated on September 24th at Goldfield West (GFW) using a reverse circulation (RC) drill rig. A total of five angled RC holes totaling 3,510 feet were drilled. Two east-west fences of two holes each were drilled in the South target (See Figure 1 on the website) attempting to identify major feeder faults interpreted from geophysical surveys conducted over the area. The two fences are 300 feet apart. A fifth hole was drilled 4,500 feet north near a historic hole containing a significant thickness of anomalous gold.

Four near-vertical feeder faults were identified in the three sections drilled (See Figures 2-4 on the website). Faults were identified by intervals containing much higher silver values than those within the volcaniclastic hosted gold/silver zones. Volcaniclastic hosted mineralization spread from these feeders. It is hypothesized that densely welded tuffaceous rocks at depth are brittle enough to form openings in which high-grade veins might form. The targets identified can easily be tested with angle RC holes which will need to be approximately 1,500 feet in depth.

The Program

Drill holes GFW1101 and 1102 were drilled on Section 83300N (Feet North) on the same section as GFW1002C, a steeply dipping core hole drilled in 2010 which defined the stratigraphy of the area and contained numerous +0.01 g/t gold intercepts with some quartz/sulfide veining. GFW1101 intersected 10 feet of 0.17 g/t gold and 18.6 g/t silver at 140-150 feet. The hole has an additional 160 feet total thickness of +0.10 g/t gold, but no other high silver grades. This intercept appears to be a north-south trending steeply west dipping feeder fault. The association of high silver with or without gold in feeder faults was discovered while drilling the Nevada Eagle vein extension several years ago. Brittle rocks occur roughly 900 to 1,100 feet below the surface on Section 83300N and where the interpreted fault crosses these rocks is a high-grade vein target.

Drill holes GFW1103 and 1104 were drilled on Section 83500N. GWF1103 contained two high silver intervals, postulated to be two feeder faults. From 215 to 225 feet the hole assays 13.3 g/t silver and from 320 t0 330 feet assays 25.1 g/t Ag. GFW1004 contains 36.7 g/t silver from 215-220 feet. These three interpreted faults were given the same orientation as those on Section 83300N. Again, brittle rocks occur roughly 900 to 1,100 feet below the surface and where the interpreted faults cross these rocks are high-grade vein targets. Geochemical results for all five holes using a 0.10 g/t gold equivalent (AuEq) cut off are shown in the table below.

*Gold to Silver Ratio of 60/1 used for Gold Equivalent Calculations

GFW1105 was drilled on Section 87900N in an area where a historic vertical drill hole (MZ4) had intersected a thick section of anomalous gold. This hole intersected 0.65 g/t gold and 28.7 g/t silver from 170 to 180 feet. This indicated feeder fault was interpreted as parallel to the feeder faults further south and the target depth is interpreted as the same.

The results show thick sections of nearly flat-lying volcaniclastic hosted gold/silver mineralization with values averaging 0.3 to 0.5 g/t AuEq with infrequent near vertical feeder faults as shown by high silver values. While the flat-lying mineralization is not currently economic the extensive volume of mineralization indicates major feeder faults were active in the area.

For the first time feeder faults have been identified at the South Target. The projection of these feeder faults into brittle rocks at depth defines several high-grade vein targets. Four such targets have been defined by this latest drilling program. The company will continue to assess the latest data to define targets for a third phase of drilling which is expected to commence in early spring of 2012.
