Frank Candido, President of Golden Hope Mines, states "The funds raised will be used primarily to advance exploration work at the Company' s Bellechasse gold project, with the principal objective of developing a preliminary resource estimate during 2011. In addition, the Company will continue to develop and test drill targets along the approximate 18 kilometres of strike length between the Beland geochemical anomaly and the Bellechasse-Timmins and Laval's Mountain gold zones. Funds will also be used to test other high priority gold and base metal targets on the Company's claim blocks in South Eastern Quebec."
