Goldspike Exploration Inc. ("Goldspike" or the "Corporation") (TSX VENTURE:GSE)
is pleased to report it has received notification of an update on results from
the optionee of the Corporation's Oliver gold property (the "Property") in the
Clear Creek district of the Yukon. The optionee, Goldstrike Resources Ltd.
("Goldstrike"), announced on August 9, 2011 the discovery of gold mineralization
on its first pass exploration of the Property. In addition to its interest in
the Goodman and Arizona gold properties optioned to Goldstrike, Goldspike holds
a 100% interest in 7 other gold exploration properties in the Clear Creek
district. The 9 properties are located near or adjacent to properties held by
Ryan Gold Corp., Golden Predator Corp., Victoria Gold Corp., and AM Gold Inc.
Goldspike recently completed initial exploration programs on all of its
properties in the Clear Creek area and is waiting for assay results.


Bruce Durham, President of Goldspike, commented, "We are very encouraged by the
early success of Goldstrike on the Oliver gold property. Most of our properties
in the Clear Creek district are large properties with strong geochemistry and
covering areas of current and historic placer mining. We hope to have results
from a number of our Clear Creek properties in the near future."


The report by Goldstrike released earlier today states as follows:

"Goldstrike announced that follow-up sampling of its Oliver property has
confirmed previous results which included 4.003 grams per tonne gold in a grab
sample (see news release August 9th, 2011). Another grab sample taken from
outcrop five metres from the first sample during a short second pass program
late in the season has just been reported at 3.154 grams per tonne gold. Both
samples were taken from what is now known as the "Midas Touch Gold Zone".


The Midas Touch Zone strikes northeast-southwest for 880 metres and remains
open. It is clearly recognizable as a dark silicified mafic volcanic layer in
contact with a dark colored metasedimentary rock. As a result of the second
program, a drill target has been identified along the northwest extension of the
zone. The drilling will confirm the full extent of the gold zone where two of
the highest grade samples have been found to date, and trenching is also
recommended to expose the true thickness and the downdip extent of the open gold
mineralized unit. The target is accessible by an existing trail that extends 2.3
two kilometres from a four wheel drive road along Bear Creek.


Sixteen rock grab samples collected during the follow-up program returned values
between 1.9 parts per billion and 3,154 parts per billion (3.154 grams per
tonne) gold. Every one of these grab samples showed elevated levels of one or
more of the following elements: copper, cobalt, lead, zinc, silver, arsenic,
antimony, and bismuth, with multiple samples exceeding the upper detection limit
of the analysis. Assays from 321 soil samples are still pending.


The Oliver property is primarily underlain by metasedimentary rocks of the
Proterozoic to Lower Cambrian Hyland Group, in proximity to several high level
granite and quartz monzonite intrusions of Cretaceous age. Metamorphic grade
appears to decrease across the property, with muscovite schist with phyllite and
quartzite clasts on the east side to lower grade phyllite and quartzite in the
west. Areas of brecciation and quartz veining in the north and south parts of
the property are considered to be favorable target areas that require follow-up,
as well as a 2.2 km long soil anomaly running northeast-southwest across the
centre of the property, parallel to and six kilometres southeast of the Midas
Zone that was identified as a result of the Phase I sampling.


Oliver is a large property covering more than 94.5 square kilometres, and is
densely vegetated. The results of the 2011 reconnaissance sampling program have
been very encouraging to date, and most of the property has yet to be explored.
A program for summer 2012 is planned to consist of drilling, trenching, and
detailed mapping, prospecting, and sampling."


The report continues: "Sample analysis and assaying for all of Goldstrike's
projects are being conducted by Acme Analytical Laboratories Ltd. in Vancouver,
B.C., which is ISO 9001 accredited. Soil samples are dried at 60C, reduced to
100 grams, and sieved to -80 mesh. A 15 gram charge is then dissolved with a
1:1:1 aqua regia digestion, and analyzed by a 72-element combination ICP-MS and
ICP-AES package that includes gold. Rock samples are crushed, split, and 250
gram samples are sieved to 200 mesh. 30 gram charges are then assayed for gold
using fire assay fusion and ICP-ES, and in addition, 0.5 mg charges are
dissolved with a 1:1:1 aqua regia digestion, and analyzed by 37-element ICP-MS
that also includes gold. Rigorous procedures are in place regarding sample
collection, chain of custody and data entry. Certified assay standards,
duplicate samples and blanks are routinely inserted into the sample stream to
ensure integrity of the assay process.


Note: Grab samples are selective by nature, and are unlikely to represent
average grades on the property.

The option agreement covering the Property requires Goldstrike as optionee to,
among other things, make additional cash payments totaling $1,000,000 to the
Corporation and also requires Goldstrike to issue a further 1,700,000 shares of
Goldstrike to the Corporation in order to earn a 100% interest in the Property,
subject to an exclusive back-in right that would allow the Corporation to
re-acquire a 30% interest in the Property in return for a one-time payment of
$5,000,000.
