(ATV: TSX-V) is pleased to announce the results from three more holes of the recently completed diamond drilling program on the East Coldstream Deposit (\"Deposit\") at the Coldstream Property in Ontario. Foundation Resources Inc (TSXV:FDN) (FDN: TSX-V) is the operator and is funding this exploration program to earn an interest in the project.Of the three holes, two were drilled (C-10-16 and C-10-17) at the Main Zone and the third (C-10-18) was drilled to intersect both North and Main zones by the same hole. All three drill holes intersected wide zones of gold mineralization, which include multiple higher grade intersections. Gold in these drill holes is associated with up to 10 percent disseminated to blebby pyrite, and occurs within strongly sheared and hydrothermally altered (silica, albite, sericite, magnetite and hematite) zone of mafic to intermediate metavolcanics and quartz-feldspar porphyry intrusive rocks. Significant results are as follows:Table of Significant Gold Assays\nDrill Hole From(metres) To(metres) Width(metres) Gold(grams /tonne) \nC-10-16 (Main Zone) 133.80 245.10 111.30 1.12 \nIncluding: 177.40 198.25 20.85 3.41 \nwhich alsoincludes: 187.00 193.30 6.30 8.68 \n \nC-10-17 (Main Zone) 48.02 90.42 42.40 0.68 \nIncluding: 53.41 54.06 0.65 7.58 \n 78.24 81.38 3.14 2.50 \n \nC-10-18 (North Zone) 89.05 157.00 67.95 1.10 \nIncluding: 131.95 137.00 5.05 9.33 \n \n(Main Zone) 208.65 231.15 22.50 0.88 \nIncluding: 208.65 216.25 7.60 1.48 \n 227.70 231.15 3.45 2.21 \nDrill hole C-10-16 was drilled at 155°/-59º to a depth of 276.46 metres, C-10-17 drilled at 157º/-47º to a depth of 160.63 metres, and C-10-18 drilled at 160º/-58º to a depth of 285.60 metres, are located approximately 100m southwest, 100m south and 240 m west-southwest, respectively, to an earlier reported drill hole C-10-14 (News Release March 29, 2010).
