Golden Odyssey Announces 2007 Exploration Plans

Golden Odyssey Mining Inc. (”Golden Odyssey” or the “Company”) (CDNX:GOE.V - News) (Other OTC:GODYF.PK - News)is pleased to announce the details of its initial 2007 exploration program. With the closing of the latest financing announced earlier today (PR #6-07 dated March 27, 2007) the Company is adequately funded to carry out its aggressive exploration programs which will include ongoing work on several of its advanced projects. The planned work for 2007 will focus on drilling at five project areas as well as mapping, sampling and geophysical surveys at several others. Additionally, the Company will continue its ongoing exploration and acquisition activities.

The Company plans drill programs at White Rock in extreme northeastern Nevada, Anchor and JDS on the Battle Mountain-Eureka Trend, Mexican Hill on the Carlin Trend and Golden Shirene on the Walker Lane Belt. This work is expected to total approximately 20,000 feet of reverse circulation rotary (”RCR”) drilling and 20,000 feet of core. The Company has made arrangements to have a RCR drill rig available throughout the year and is currently requesting bids for the core drilling. The extensive body of data developed by the company at the Palmetto and Morningstar projects continues to be evaluated and target modeling is in progress. Exploration plans for these projects will be announced when this work is completed.

Mr. David R. Shaddrick, President and CEO states, “this will be a very exciting year for the Company. Each of our projects has the potential for a very large gold deposit and the planned drilling and exploration work is focused on verifying and developing that potential.”
