VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA–(Marketwire – Nov. 23, 2009) – Golden Predator Royalty & Development Corp. (TSX VENTURE:GPD) (the “Company”) is pleased to release additional assay results from drill hole GPGR-29 from the 2009 reverse circulation drilling program at the Golden Ridge Project, located in the High Grade district in northeastern Modoc County, California (see News Release 09-32 dated October 1, 2009). Previously announced high grade gold intercepts in drill hole GPGR-29 included 5 feet (1.5 meters) averaging 2.919 opt Au (100.07 gpt) from 52.5 to 57.5 ft (16 to 17.5 m) and 15 ft (4.6 m) averaging 0.913 opt Au (31.306 gpt) from 132.5 to 147.5 ft (40.4 to 45 m). The rhyolitic wallrock between these two gold bearing quartz adularia vein zones has since been analyzed and found to contain additional gold mineralization in silicified rhyolite breccias adjacent to the veins.

The new results include 12.5 ft (3.8 m) from 120.0 to 132.5 ft (36.6 to 40.4 m) of stockwork quartz-sulfide mineralization in the hanging wall of the lower of the two veins averaging 0.651 opt Au (22.327 gpt). With the new assay data, the lower Alturas vein zone in GPGR-29 has a thirty foot drilled interval from 120 to 150 ft averaging 0.734 opt (25.05 gpt) at a 3 gpt grade cutoff. The five feet from 130 to 135 averages 2.730 opt Au (93.6 gpt). Significant intercepts include:

The upper quartz-adularia vein was within the silicified rhyolite breccia and assayed 2.919 opt Au (100.07 gpt) from 50 to 55 ft (15.2 to 16.8 m), including 2.5 ft (0.76 m) from 50 to 52.5 ft (15.2 to 16 m) that assayed 5.469 opt Au (187.5 gpt).

The Company completed a four hole core drilling program in October to follow up on the intercept in RC drill hole GPGR-29 and the adjacent Alturas vein system below and along strike to the north and south. The core from this program is in the process of being logged, cut and analyzed, with initial results anticipated in mid-December.

Golden Predator has consolidated the largest land position in the High Grade district ever held by a single gold exploration company containing over 14 historic mines including the Sunshine, Modoc, Moonlight, Alturas, Consolidated and Klondike mines. Anomalous gold covers an area over three miles in length and one mile wide. The Company’s 2009 drilling program is making the first drill tests on several of the outcropping quartz-adularia vein targets. The Golden Ridge Project represents a district-scale discovery opportunity with the potential for several underground mineable bonanza-grade gold deposits.

Additional information, including the October 1, 2009 News Release with assay values for the initial 2009 drilling results, along with property photos and location map may be viewed on the Company’s website (http://www.goldenpredator.com).

Laboratory Analysis and QA/QC:

ALS CHEMEX of Reno and Elko, NV performed all lab analyses. Samples in the lab were logged-in and assigned a barcode. The samples were rotary split prior to crushing to retain a coarse sample for metallurgical work. The remainder was fine crushed to 70% less than 2 mm then riffle split with one split pulverized to 85% less than 75 microns. Gold was analyzed by fire assay and AAS using a 30 gm sample weight. Samples exceeding 10 ppm were analyzed by fire assay with a gravimetric finish. Silver was analyzed by aqua regia digestion and ICP-AES or AAS. = Detection limits for gold and silver are, 0.005 ppm and 1 ppm, respectively. Lab results for gold and silver are reported in ppm units. In public disclosure, ounce per imperial ton (opt) and gram per metric tonne (gpt) is used, where 34.285 ppm is equivalent to 1 opt and 1 ppm is equivalent to 1 gpt.

QA/QC procedures for reverse circulation drilling includes submittal of a duplicate sample for every twenty samples and also a combination of blank and references submitted for every twenty samples submitted.

All assay numbers are reported un-cut and all intercepts are reported as drill width and are not to be interpreted as true widths. David R. Hembree, P.Geo., is the Qualified Person as defined under National Instrument 43-101, overseeing the Company’s U.S. exploration programs outside Nevada, and has reviewed & verified the information presented on QA/QC procedures and technical aspects of the drilling results in this press release.

The world market for urodynamics devices and disposables is expected to grow at a rate of 3.0 percent during the 2005-2013 period. There is no single dominant player in the Urodynamics equipment and disposables market. Focused / specialized companies include: Laborie, Life-Tech, MMS, SRS, Urodynamix, Schippers, Menfis, Andromeda, Albyn, and Mediwatch. Larger companies include Bard, Gyrus ACMI, Cooper, and ETHICON (Gynecare).

Over time, the market is likely to see blurring of the mid- and low-end equipment segments – downward price pressures on the mid-range segment, as well as expansion of features in the low-price segment, will contribute to this. Companies are offering relatively inexpensive and simple systems which can be operated by office personnel (nurses and technicians). The urodynamics devices market can be segmented the following way:

• By Equipment Type: High-End, Mid-Range, Low-End

• By Disposable Type: Catheters, Pump Tubing, EMG Electrodes, Other Disposables

Key market drivers in this space include: a) Large and under penetrated market: incidence and prevalence of urological diseases on the rise; b) Favorable Medicare and private insurance reimbursement for urological diagnostic procedures; c) Expanded treatment options for urological conditions; and d) Expansion in testing sites / locations pointing to increased number of procedures.

Market restraints include: a) Invasive procedure; b) Significant per procedure costs; c) Equipment costs; d) Recent focus on marketing of low-end equipment, which tend to offer lower revenues and margins; d) Urologist office space largely penetrated – sales in this market are mostly replacement.

Urodynamics includes a menu of tests or procedures designed to assess the performance of bladder and urethra in storing and releasing urine. These tests help physicians understand how well the bladder and sphincter muscles work. They can also help explain symptoms such as incontinence; frequent urination; sudden, strong urges to urinate; problems starting a urine stream; painful urination; problems emptying bladder completely; and recurrent urinary tract infections.

Most patients are referred to a urologist for urodynamic studies. However, other specialists are also performing these studies, such as gynecologists and Ob/Gyns. Urodynamics studies are conducted using uroflow, urodynamic, ultrasound, and electromyography equipment and associated consumables. Types of procedures include: Flowmetry; Cystometry; Urethral-Cystometry; Pressure-Flow Study; Urethral Pressure Profile; Conductance; Valsalva and Strain Leak Point Pressure; Electromyography. Procedures can range from simple to complex. Complex procedures involve imaging equipment that films urination and pressure monitors that record the pressures of the bladder and urethra

Key participants in the urodynamics devices business include: Albyn Medical; American Medical Systems (AMS); ANDROMEDA; Bard Urological; BEAC Biomedicle; Cook Urological; Cooper Surgical; ETHICON (Gynecare); GYRUS ACMI; HealthTronics; Kendall Patient Care; Laborie Medical Technologies; Life-Tech; MEDICAL MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS (MMS); Medispec; Mediwatch Plc; Menfis bioMedical; Millar Instruments; Mindray Medical International Ltd; Neomedix Systems; Oakfield Instruments; PCK; SCHIPPERS-MEDIZINTECHNIK; SRS Medical; Stille-Sonesta; Urodynamix Technologies; Verathon.

Marketstrat has published a report that analyzes the world market for various urodynamics equipment and disposables, discusses key players, and identifies trends impacting the market for these products. Topics covered include product definitions, revenues, segmentation, disease incidence and prevalence, market share rankingss, competitive position map, brands and models, and company profiles. The report provides market estimates and forecasts for Urodynamics equipment and disposables by product segment, separately for USA, Europe, and Asia-Pacific.
