Great Quest to Drill Test the Quartz Breccia Zone where 1.05 m of 808.95 g/t Gold Intersected

VANCOUVER, BC - Willis W. Osborne, President of Great Quest Metals Ltd. (TSX Venture Exchange: GQ), is pleased to announce that the Company will be drilling two more diamond drill holes on the Djambaye 2 gold zone in the Kenieba concession in western Mali, West Africa. The objective of the two holes will be to trace the zone intersected in hole KN 11-05. This hole intersected 8.55 m of 100.76 g/t gold which included 1.05 m of 808.85 g/t gold.

The gold is found in quartz breccia. Management believes the mineralization could occur along a fault that strikes either 10º or 70º, or it could be at the intersection of two faults in which case it would have a narrow width and thickness but could extend some distance in depth. The drilling will start when the diamond drill, currently in use by another company, becomes available within the next week.
