Wampum Gold Prospect Announcement
Wednesday 26th November, 2008
Calgary, Alberta (TSX Venture: WMI), November 26, 2008 - Whetstone Minerals Inc. ("Whetstone") is pleased to announce the results of its fall drill program at the Wampum prospect located in the Kenora District of northern Ontario.
DRILLING HIGHLIGHTS
7.9 g Au/t over 2.4 metres intersected at a shallow depth extends the North Zone mineralization eastward.
2.0 g Au/t over 4.1 metres intersected at a vertical depth of approximately 90 metres establishes the depth continuity of the previously undrilled North Zone mineralization.
Paul Nagerl, P.Geo., President and Chief Executive Officer of Whetstone, stated that, "These results extend significantly the known gold mineralization to the north and, in conjunction with the results from drilling on the Main Zone, indicate potential for a broad continuous zone of gold mineralization at Wampum that remains open in all directions. Additional drilling will be necessary to determine the extent of these zones and to establish the potential for an economic deposit at Wampum."
