Gold Reach and Grayd Resource Commence Exploration Program on Seel Property, BC

Vancouver, BC, October 20, 2004 . . . Gold Reach Resources Ltd. (GRH.H: NEX) (previously listed as Websmart.com Communications Inc. - WSM.H) and Grayd Resource Corporation (GYD: TSX-V) announce the commencement of the 2004 exploration program on the Seel property in Central BC. The program will entail a 20 line kilometer induced polarization ("IP") and magnetic ground survey, followed by a 2000 metre drill program. The geophysical survey has commenced and the drill program is expected to start in late November. The budget for the 2004 exploration program is estimated at $400,000.

The Seel property is located 120 km by road south of Houston, BC and 6 km southeast of the operating Huckleberry open pit mine. The property covers a 7 kilometre by 2 kilometre zone with coincident soil, rock and geophysical anomalies of a type commonly associated with large porphyry mineral systems. An extensive footprint of hydrothermal alteration and sulphide mineralization is observed throughout the 7 kilometre belt. The anomalous zone includes an area where a previous operator drilled several shallow holes (typically 20 to 30 metres) into a mineralized breccia body associated with an intrusion. Reported highlights include 18 metres grading 1.59 per cent copper and 0.64 g/t gold and 0.9 metre grading 8.3 per cent copper, 9.5 grams per tonne gold and 120 grams per tonne silver. A rock sample collected last summer by Grayd 1.2 kilometres west of the previous drilling assayed 0.64% copper and 1.62 grams per tonne gold. This sample was of float, but is assumed to have come from a proximal source.

"The overall goal for the 2004 exploration program is to not only expand on the known mineralization but to target the untested Cu-Au-Ag bulk tonnage potential of the property" states Mike Sieb, Director of Gold Reach.

Under the terms of the agreement, Gold Reach can earn a 61% interest in the Seel property by incurring $1 million in exploration expenditures before December 31, 2006. Gold Reach is committed to incur $400,000 of this amount by December 31, 2004. Once Gold Reach is vested, Grayd has 60 days to elect to earn back 10% of the interest by incurring the next $250,000 in exploration expenditures (effectively forming a 51% Gold Reach / 49% Grayd joint venture). During the earn-in period, Grayd will act as operator.

The 2004 Seel field program is under the supervision of Hans Smit, P.Geo., Vice-President Exploration for Grayd Resource Corporation, a qualified person under NI 43-101.
