(MAX: TSX) today reported that the 2011 exploration program at its Golden Meadows\n Project, Valley County, Idaho, has commenced.  The work planned by\n Midas Gold aims to further evaluate the mineral potential of the\n consolidated Golden Meadows property, unconstrained by historic\n property boundaries that impeded prior explorers in the area.  The 2011\n exploration program will use a combination of exploration methods,\n including airborne and ground geophysics and drilling.  The program has\n four key objectives:\n\n\n\nTo upgrade the confidence levels in portions of the current mineral\n resources contained in the Hangar Flats, West End and Yellow Pine\n deposits which in aggregate contain an indicated mineral resource of\n 2.05 million oz of gold at an average grade of 1.58g/t gold and an\n additional inferred mineral resource of 3.74 million oz of gold at an\n average grade of 2.15g/t gold (see news release dated April 20, 2011\n for the current mineral resource estimates for all three deposits by\n type and category);\n\n\nTo better understand the potential for economically significant\n by-products of antimony, silver and tungsten;\n\n\nTo increase the overall mineral resources at Golden Meadows by exploring\n on strike and down dip of the cu...
