Gowest Amalgamated Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:GWA)(OTCBB:GWSAF) has announced that its 2011 winter drilling program is underway at the Frankfield gold project in Timmins, Ontario.

• Deep drilling down to a depth of more than 1000m to define areas for resource expansion and to explore an apparent easterly plunge to the deposit which has demonstrated multiple parallel gold bearing structures at a depth of 750m.
• Drilling the high priority southern magnetic gold target, where a shallow drill will explore this alteration zone roughly 1km from the Frankfield East Deposit.
