April 22, 2015 Gold Bullion Development Corp. (TSX.V: GBB) (OTCPINK: GBBFF) (the
Company or Gold Bullion) is excited to report initial results from the most recent
trenching activities at Granada. So far in 2015, three trenches have been completed in the
area covering the smallest proposed pit located furthest west with channel sampling from
the middle trench, TR15-11, returning 6.05 g/t Au over 8 m including 14.98 g/t Au over 3 m.
Since the beginning of the year, the Company has taken 103 samples, prepared, assayed and
analyzed the material from two of the three trenches. The trenching program was designed
to validate the existence and position of mineralized gold zones at surface over the most
western pit with the advanced goal of characterizing and precisely locating the near surface
high grades zones previously identified in drill holes GR-12-412 and GR-12-413. Digging
parameters were established for the trenches located over the future pit at approximately
two metres deep, four metres wide and eight metres in length.
Results were obtained by excavation followed by blowing compressed air then channelling
with a rock saw. Samples were then taken at 1-metre intervals prior to completing a DGPS
survey. Based on the results, the Company will request a mining lease to the west to include
this western extension into existing mining leases. Note: reported widths do not represent
true widths as the zone dips at approximately 50 to the north.
The mineralized section is in disseminated pyrite in a sericite-silica alteration zone similar
to that intersected in drill holes GR12-412 and GR12-413, with near-surface mineralization
starting near surface at 4.5 metres in the latter hole.
Frank J. Basa, Gold Bullion President and CEO, Surface channel sampling grades confirming
the continuity of the near-surface drill-intersected mineralization over a potential strike
length of 3.5 kilometers from the western to the eastern trenches is a very positive
development within the rolling start mining plan.
In September 2014, six trenches were completed to the east of Pit 2A with highlights
including 108.6 g/t Au on a 1-metre channel; see news release dated November 18th, 2014.
In trench T14-6, located 36 m to the east of the Pit 2A limit, two mineralized zones were
also outlined by the channel sampling indicating a strong possibility to extend the
mineralized zone from Pit 2A with additional surface work for confirmation.
Last years trenching work outlined the mineralization zones cut by the previous diamond
drill holes which provided important information for surface mining operations. Including
the recent 2015 trenching results, there are now several near surface high-grade areas
identified.
Additional 2015 trenching is planned over the (Aukeko) exploration target area to the east
and on strike east west with the rolling start pit. The eastern trenching area is 3.5 km east of
the initial production pit. The winter 2015 trenching was undertaken 800 metres to the
west of the initial production pit.
Four 200-metre trenches are planned in this area to further investigate near surface gold
mineralization based off high-grade holes previously drilled in the area. Over 300 samples
are to be taken during trenching with the location of the four trenches to include previous
hole DDH E11-02 that returned 8.8 g/t Au over 1.33 metres and hole 80-05 that returned
8.5 g/t Au over 0.8 metres.
Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic
viability. The potential quantity and grade reported as Mineral Potential, is conceptual in
nature, that there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource and that it
is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral
resource.

Gold Bullion Development Corp. is a TSX Venture-listed junior natural resource company
focusing on the exploration and development of its Granada Property located on the prolific
Cadillac Trend near Rouyn-Noranda, Qubec. Gold mining operations will focus on high
grade near surface material that will be trucked to Iamgolds nearby processing facility. The
project economics remain robust with all in cash costs forecast at US $797 prior to the drop
in fuel prices. The Company has been actively and systematically advancing the Granada
property since acquiring the previously producing mine site in 2006. Near term share price
catalysts include commencing gold production, positive cash flow to be used for operations
and continued exploration and a resource estimate update with the adding of 400 historical
holes. Additional information on the Company is available by visiting the website at
