Cayden Samples 91m of 2.9 g/t Gold at El Barqueno
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired) -- 05/10/13 -- Cayden Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE: CYD)(PINKSHEETS: CDKNF) ("Cayden" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has received initial gold values from its ongoing trenching programs at the El Barqueno property located in Jalisco State, Mexico. Highlights include 91 meters of 2.9 g/t Au, 40 meters of 1.8 g/t Au, 3 meters of 7.9 g/t Au and 10 meters of 2.1 g/t.
Trenches were taken in one of the multiple areas where wide zones of hydrothermal alteration and network quartz veins that occur at surface. The total strike length of mineralization revealed by the assayed trenches is 1.3 kilometers and the system is open to the northeast where additional trenches are awaiting assay (please see Figure 1 - El Barqueno Trench Map at: www.caydenresources.com/images/NR_ElBarque%C3%B1o_Samples_2013.jpg). Assays revealed that many of the trenches contain gold in both the veins and the wall rock with many of the trenches ending in mineralization.

Cayden's technical team has mapped strong alteration and prospective lithology over various targets along 8 kilometers of strike length between the Azteca and Pena De Oro target areas. The team also identified multiple occurrences of parallel zones to the south where we are conducting more sampling programs.
Cayden will be commencing a 5,000-meter drill program shortly to test the depth and extension of the impressive mineralization.
Dan McCoy, PhD. Chief Geologist commented, "These results are impressive, as we have only sampled a small part of the areas where epithermal style veins and alteration occur. We believe that we are in the early stages of discovering a district-sized gold system with the potential to host significant gold resources."
David Hladky, P. Geo. is the Qualified Person with respect to NI 43-101 at El Barqueno. All trench samples are obtained from continuous channel sampling at one to three meter intervals. All samples are assayed using standard 30 gram fire assay with atomic absorption finish by Acme Labs in Vancouver, Ca. QA/QC programs using internal standard samples, field and lab duplicates, re-assays, and blanks indicate good accuracy and precision in a large majority of standards assayed. The Company has not yet determined the true width for each trench but based on work by previous operators, believes that the true widths are between 40 and 100 percent of the trenched widths.
