Gold American Mining Corp. Identifies Significant Geophysical Anomalies at High-Grade Guadalupe Property
Mon Aug 30, 9:00 AM

RENO, NV--(Marketwire - August 30, 2010) - Gold American Mining Corp. (OTCBB: SILA.OB) ("Gold American" and/or "the Company") is pleased to announce that it has received the final ground geophysics report on its Guadalupe property and confirms that the recently concluded geophysics program has identified multiple potentially significant geophysical anomalies.

The geophysical survey was designed to test down to depths of 500 metres. The key results from the geophysics program are:

Magnetic susceptibility survey was successful in identifying the trace near the surface extensions of the known veins. The presence of additional parallel anomalies suggests the potential for additional veins that do not outcrop. Induced Polarization anomalies indicate the potential for down dip extensions to the main veins within the property. A potentially significant chargeability anomaly (Induced Polarization) occurs in the southern portion of the property in between the Santa Rosa and San Antonio Mines at depth starting at 400 m, which is below the known depth of these historically important mines.

"The final results and interpretation of the geophysics results on our Guadalupe property have given us very attractive drilling targets. We are in the process of acquiring firm bids from several qualified drilling contractors and initiating the permitting process for the next phase of exploration of this exciting project," commented Johannes Petersen, President of Gold American. "Gold American is well on track to initiating drilling operations on Guadalupe during the fourth quarter of 2010," added Mr. Petersen.

THE GUADALUPE PROPERTY The Guadalupe property contains two historically significant mines and is located in one of Mexico's oldest mining districts, roughly 5 miles north of the Fresnillo (Proano) Mine, the world's richest underground silver mine, operated by Fresnillo plc. Roughly 6.8 miles to the southwest of Silver America's Guadalupe Property is the Juanicipio Joint Venture (JV) between MAG Silver Corp. (MAG) and Fresnillo plc, which is known as one of the world's highest grade undeveloped silver resources.

The Property contains greater than 20 known workings as well as two historic mines -- Santa Rita and San Antonio. Historic records containing references to the Santa Rita and San Antonio mines suggest that both mines were important and reached their height of production between 1910 and 1920 but were last in production in the 1980s. The property is completely surrounded by land controlled by Penoles (either through Fresnillo or other subsidiaries and partners).
