(TSX-V\n GPG) ("Grande Portage" or "the Company") is pleased to announce the\n completion of their first diamond core hole (11E-1) of the 2011 drill\n campaign at their Herbert Glacier project.  The hole is their first to\n test the western end of the Deep Trench Vein and was successfully\n completed at 407' (124.05m) T.D.\n\n\nProject geologist Carl D. Hale had predicted the Deep Trench\n intersection at about 110 meters in a south-directed -45° drill hole. \n Including hanging and footwall alteration zones, the vein intersection\n found was from 342' to 380' (105.5-117.2m) with the midpoint at about\n 359 feet (110.7m).  Strong quartz-veined intervals are found from 352\n to 355 feet (108.6 to 110.7m), also 365-368 feet (112.6-113.5m) and\n 372-377.5' (108.6-109.5m).  Initial inspection showed visible gold in\n several locations throughout the mineralized intercepts.\n\n\nSplit core samples from the zone will be submitted to ALS Minerals Prep\n lab in Fairbanks, AK for metallic screen (gold) and ICP analyses.\n Expedited analyses will be requested.\n\n\nA second drill hole (11E-2) at -60° S from the same platform is\n underway.  The 2011 Pad E holes will augment information gained from\n hole 10A-4 drilled in 2010.  Hole 10A-4 discovered about 10 meters of\n mineralization in the Deep Trench ...
