MONTREAL, Feb. 13 /CNW Telbec/ - Golden Goose Resources Inc. (TSX-V: GGR) (the "Company") is pleased to report that it has received the results for the final six holes of its 2007 drilling program at Lac Levac. These results include multiple intersection grading over 1% nickel from the newly-discovered eastern extension of the NISK-1 anomaly(x), which has now been traced along a strike length of 750 metres. The Lac Levac property is wholly-owned by Golden Goose and lies 216 km north of Chibougamau in the James Bay area of northern Quebec.
"The eastern extension is continuing to generate strong results," noted Jean-Marc Lacoste, President of Golden Goose. "Of particular interest is Hole 46-07, the deepest hole drilled on that area in 2007, which intersected 11.0 metres of 1.04% nickel. This strengthens our conviction that the depth extension of the NISK-1 anomaly is a high-potential target."
The NISK-1 anomaly remains open at depth and along strike in both directions. Definition drilling on both the main area and the eastern extension has resumed following the Christmas break, as part of the 2008 drilling program of about 10,000 metres.
The latest and final results for the 2007 drilling program are as follows. Previously-reported results are also shown below for reference:

Holes 01-07, 02-07, 03-07 were drilled on the "C" anomaly and showed no
significant mineralization.
Holes 11-07 and 14-07 were cancelled.
Hole 12-07 showed no significant mineralization.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Analyses were done by Accurassay Laboratories, Thunder Bay, Ontario. All
samples are tested using a full scan ICP following an Aqua-Regia
digestion. Ore grade samples are then reanalyzed by atomic absorption. Pt
and Pd are tested by Fire Assay using lead collection.

The 2007 drill data is being used to update the NI 43-101-compliant evaluation report and resource estimate dated July 2007, which showed the NISK-1 anomaly to contain an indicated resource of 516,000 tonnes at 0.89% nickel, 0.39% copper, 0.06% cobalt, 0.79 g/t palladium and 0.14 g/t platinum and an inferred resource of 734,000 tonnes at 0.89% nickel, 0.34% copper, 0.06% cobalt, 0.77 g/t palladium and 0.14 g/t platinum.
The Lac Levac drilling programs are planned and supervised by Marc-Antoine Beaupre, a geological engineer and the qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101. He has approved the contents of this press release.
(x) Previously called the INCO anomaly. Golden Goose has decided to
assign Cree names to the Lac Levac anomalies; "nisk" means "goose" in
Cree.
