[{"type":"text","content":"\n\n\n\n\n\nSKP: TSXV   STKXF: OTCQX\n\n\nCALGARY, Aug. 15, 2011 /CNW/ - StrikePoint Gold (TSXV:SKP) (OTCQX:\n STKXF) announces that drilling has commenced on StrikePoint's 100%\n owned Angelina property in Manitoba's Rice Lake gold belt.\n\n\nThe drill program, described in our press release of July 7, 2011, was\n delayed due to the difficulty in coordinating a drill crew and leasing\n a helicopter during the forest fire season.\n\n\nThe proposed initial program consists of a total of 600m of drilling in\n five or six holes from two set-ups spaced about 100m apart in the\n centre of the zone that reported 0.14 to 6.41 g/t Au from 12 grab\n samples. Four additional grab samples from this area graded 26.65 to\n 199.0 g/t Au. Only two of these rock samples were assayed for silver\n but reported 26.9 and 101.0 g/t Ag. The grab samples results were\n reported in our press release of June 23, 2011 which contains maps\n showing the simplified geology, geophysics and sample locations of the\n Angelina, available at: www.strikepointgold.com. It should be noted that grab samples are selective by nature and their\n analytical results cannot be depended upon to estimate average grades\n on the property.\n\n\nThis press release has been reviewed by Daniel A.
