Kiska continues to expand Whistler Project prospects

5 December 2011: Kiska Metals Corporation has reported the final drill results from the Island Mountain prospect, Whistler Project, which is located 160 km northwest ofAnchorage, Alaska. Results include hole IM11-040, which averaged 0.84g/t gold equivalent (0.53g/t gold, 3.55g/t silver and 0.13% copper) over 364 metres, including a higher grade interval that averages 1.05 g/t gold equivalent (0.62g/t gold, 6.36g/t silver, 0.17% copper) over 141 metres. All six of the final holes reported herein returned significant grades and widths of gold-copper mineralization, capping off a highly successful season of drilling at Island Mountain.

Hole IM11-040 was the first hole oriented in a north-south direction testing both geological and grade continuity. The hole intersected breccias and consistent gold-copper grades for almost its entire length. The other five holes were drilled on intermediate sections and to fill in a gap on section 7,750N, thereby providing drill coverage over the Breccia Zone on six 50-metre spaced, east-west sections.
