Highlights

Hole AR-71C intercepts 53.34m 1.1 grams per tonne gold equivalent

States Northern Vertex Chief Geologist Dr. Bob Thompson, "We are very pleased with the thicknesses and grades returned from the recent 6 holes of drilling at Moss, including Hole AR-69C (Table below) that returned 6+ gpt gold equivalent over 13.1 meters. The stockwork system is robust, and the distribution of gold is proving to be consistent both along and across its 5,000 ft strike. Importantly, results to date continue to support the three primary objectives of our current drill program: to verify, build on and extend the Moss epithermal gold-silver system".

About the company

Galway's best gold intersect yet: 26 m of 129 g/t and 21.5 m of 8.5 g/t in one hole, and 92.5 m of 2.9 g/t and 114 m of 1.1 g/t in another

Galway Resources Ltd. (GWY: TSX-V) is pleased to announce assay results from holes GWY-113 to GWY-116 from the ongoing diamond drill exploration program at its California gold-silver property in Colombia.

"We are very encouraged that our drill results at California have improved over the past few months. Our geologists have been better able to hone in on the high grade veins within the longer intervals of mineralization. In addition, while we have identified high grade gold from surface to a depth of 380 meters, the mineralization remains open to depth as well as along strike. Aside from the fact that GWY-115 has by far the highest grade we've ever seen on our property, this hole is significant because it further bridges the gap between the Pie de Gallo and Northeast Zones. GWY-116 is significant because it helps define the width of the main mineralized trend at California and demonstrates continuity both vertically and laterally," cites Robert Hinchcliffe, President and CEO of Galway Resources.

Highlights from recent drill results at California are as follows:

GWY-115

-- 26.0 meters grading 129.0 grams per tonne gold (g/t Au) and 22.3 g/t silver (Ag), including 1.0 meter of 3,310.0 g/t Au and 454.0 g/t Ag -- 21.5 meters grading 8.5 g/t Au and 11.3 g/t Ag, including 2.0 meters of 78.3 g/t Au and 17.1 g/t Ag, and 1.0 meter of 13.7 g/t Au

GWY-116

-- 92.5 meters grading 2.9 g/t Au, including 6.0 meters of 19.6
g/t Au (that includes 1.0 meter of 28.4 g/t Au, 1.0 meter of
59.6 g/t Au and 14.5 g/t Ag, and 1.0 meter of 24.2 g/t Au and
13.4 g/t Ag), 1.0 meter of 7.0 g/t Au, and 1.0 meter of 45.7
