Jayden reports first 2011 silver coin drill results: 2.67 g/t gold over 16.4 meters including 10.7 g/t over 3.0 meters in hole SC11-341

Jayden Resources Inc., (“Jayden” or “the Company”) (TSX:JDN) is pleased to announce assay results from the first 17 holes received from its planned 100 hole – 15,000 meter drilling program at Silver Coin. The drilling program is composed of approximately 80% infill and close offset holes, and 20% exploration holes outside of the current resource. The primary goal of the program is to upgrade the existing inferred resource to the measured and indicated categories. Drilling began in mid-May at the south end of the resource area and has been progressing to the north. Assay highlights from this first group of holes are shown below:

About Jayden Resources

Jayden Resources is a Canadian exploration company with a 43-101 compliant resource at the Silver Coin gold/silver deposit in the Stewart Camp, northern B.C., that includes the historic Silbak-Premier Mine and Barrick Gold’s famed Eskay Creek Mine. Excellent exploration potential remains to the north, north-west and south of the existing resource at Silver Coin, and will be tested in this year’s drilling.

Technical information in this press release was prepared and reviewed by Lawrence Dick, Ph.D., P.Geo., recognized as a Qualified Person under the guidelines of National Instrument 43-101. Drill intersections were calculated using a cutoff of 0.30 g/t Au, and are reported as drilled thicknesses. Work to determine true thicknesses of mineralization is ongoing. Individual samples below the stated cutoff grade of 0.30 g/t Au are occasionally included in the calculated drill intersections, but only to the extent that the average grade in any two adjacent samples remains above the cutoff. Drill samples were assayed by Inspectorate Exploration and Mining Services Ltd. (ISO9001:2008) in Richmond, B.C. for gold by fire assay of a 30 gram (1 assay ton) charge with an AA finish, or if over 10.0 g/t were re-assayed and completed with a gravimetric finish. For these over-limit samples, the gravimetric data were utilized in calculating gold intersections. QA/QC included the insertion and continual monitoring of numerous standards and blanks into the sample stream. Samples were also analyzed for a 32-element geochemical suite using ICP-MS.
