Kaminak Step-Out Drilling Extends Latte and Supremo Zones Along Trend

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Jun 10, 2010 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX News Network) --

Kaminak Gold Corporation (TSX VENTURE: KAM) is pleased to announce assay results from step-out holes drilled on the newly discovered Latte and Supremo Zones, located on the Company's 100% owned Coffee property, Yukon Territory. These separate zones are located 1 kilometer apart and were found by drilling shallow holes beneath gold-in-soil anomalies. The Coffee property is host to an additional eight gold-in-soil trends that are not yet drill tested. Both the Latte and Supremo Zones remain open along trend and at depth.

Drill Highlights

--  Latte step-out hole extends strike length of strongly oxidized
mineralization for an additional 100m east with hole CFD-008 yielding
51m grading 1.32 grams per tonne gold (g/t Au) starting at 7m core depth
--  Supremo step-out holes extend strike length of oxidized mineralization
for an additional 50m north with hole CFD-003 intersecting 3.26 g/t Au
over 17.35m starting at 37m core depth and hole CFD-004 yielding 2.47
g/t Au over 20m starting at 50m core depth
--  The drill is currently located on the Supremo Zone and is focused on
extending the strike length of high-grade and shallow gold
mineralization
--  A total of 7 drill holes have been completed at the Latte Zone over a
400m length. Samples for the remaining 4 holes (CFD-009 to CFD-012) are
currently being processed at the assay laboratory. Samples from Supremo
hole CFD-005 are also being processed.

Latte Results

The Latte Zone is associated with a regionally-significant, east-west trending and south-dipping structural corridor co-incident with a 1 kilometer long by 100m wide gold-in-soil anomaly. Gold mineralization is preferentially concentrated in the structural corridor and consists of silicification and oxidized sulphides hosted in brittle fractures and breccia zones that appear to overprint older fabrics.

Drill hole CFD-008 was drilled facing north at a -50 degree angle and is located 100m to the east and along trend of previously announced discovery hole CFD-006 which returned 83.93m grading 1.08 g/t Au (see Kaminak news release dated June 7th, 2010). Drill hole CFD-008 intersected a thick interval of gold mineralization yielding 51m at a grade of 1.32 g/t Au starting at 7m core depth. It should be noted that this hole collared in well altered and mineralized rocks and true width of the intersection could be significantly longer. This result confirms an east- west trend to mineralization at Latte which remains open along trend and at depth. A total of 7 drill holes have been completed at the Latte Zone over a 400m length. Samples for the remaining 4 holes (CFD-009 to CFD-012) are currently being processed at the assay laboratory.

Supremo Results

Gold mineralization at the Supremo Zone (Trench 3 area) is hosted in a north-south trending structure co-incident with strong gold-in-soil values. Ground magnetic data suggests the structure may continue for at least 1 kilometer towards the Latte Zone. Drill holes CFD-003 and CFD-004 were drilled facing west from the same set-up with CFD-003 drilled at a -50 degree angle and CFD-004 drilled at a -70 degree angle. These holes were drilled 50m north of high-grade drill intercepts from CFD-001 and CFD-002 (see Kaminak news release dated May 26th). Hole CFD-003 intersected 17.35m grading 3.26 g/t Au starting from 37m core length and CFD-004 yielded 20m grading 2.47 g/t Au starting at 50m core length. These results confirm that mineralization along the Trench 3 trend is north-south trending and steeply dipping to the east and remains open along strike and at depth.

A detailed plan map, cross-section, assay sheet and photo montage of select core samples from these holes are available on the Kaminak website at www.kaminak.com.
