GOLD HILL, Nev., May 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- GoldSpring, Inc. (OTC
Bulletin Board: GSPG) announced favorable drill results from its
exploration program at the Hartford Complex in the Comstock Lode region of
Nevada. Drill holes 25 through 27 are a continuation of the Company's
definition drilling program and show strong mineralization in and around
the Hartford Complex.
"We are excited by these additional results," said Jim Golden,
GoldSpring's Chief Operating Officer. "Assay results have been received
from an additional three reverse circulation holes since the last report of
drill results on April 25, 2008. These drill holes, completed since
December 2007, were designed to test the extent of known mineralization in
the Hartford Complex. High-grade silver and gold mineralization was
intersected in many of the drill holes and all holes intersected multiple
gold- and silver-bearing veins. The drilling for holes 25 through 27 are
highlighted by a twenty-five foot interval (285'-310') grading 0.239 ounces
per ton gold and 0.94 ounces per ton silver."

About GoldSpring, Inc.
GoldSpring, Inc. is a North American precious metals mining company,
focused in Nevada, with extensive, contiguous property in the Comstock Lode
District. Our Company was formed in mid-2003, and we acquired two
properties in the Comstock Lode before the end of the year. We secured
permits, built an infrastructure and brought the exploration project into
test mining production within a year of its acquisition. The Company, in
2005, began consolidating the Comstock Lode by acquiring additional
properties in the district, expanding our footprint and creating
opportunities for exploration and mining. We are an emerging company,
looking to build on our success through the acquisition of other mineral
properties in the Comstock Lode District with reserves or exploration
potential. The Company's objectives are to resume mining, optimize
production, increase reserves through exploration and acquisitions, expand
its footprint in the Comstock, and maximize shareholder value.
