New series of quartz veins on Sonia-Puma property, Central Chile

Toronto, Canada – Goldeye Explorations Limited (“Goldeye “) wishes to announce the results of the surface sampling program completed in December on the Puma area of the Sonia/Puma property, Region V central Chile. The Puma alteration zone is an 800m diameter area of argillication hosting centrally located quartz and silica-rich veins. Twenty seven samples of the vein material assayed from 0.005g/t gold to 3.84g/t gold with associated silver values to 5.8g/t.

Sixteen samples taken from a zone of north-south trending quartz–silica veins approximately 1.6km to the south and 400m higher in elevation assayed from 0.037g/t gold to 1.75 g/t gold and silver values to 21.6 g/t.

Samples varied from composite grab samples of quartz-silica vein material from boulders in soil to channel and panel samples across veins up to 1.4m wide. One of the panel samples measuring 0.25m by 1.4m assayed 3.84g/t Au.

Analyses were carried out by ALS Chemex an ISO 9001:2001 registered laboratory. Gold analyses were by fire assay techniques with an atomic absorption finish while silver values were determined by ICP methods as part of a 34 element assay package.

A program of road building to provide access for geology, geophysics and drilling to the Sonia and Puma properties will commence in late January.
