Xtra-Gold Resources Corp. ("Xtra" or the "Company") (TSX: XTG)(TSX:
XTG.S)(OTCBB: XTGR) is pleased to announce further encouraging gold
assay results from an additional nine (9) diamond core holes (1,809
metres) on Zone 2 from the Phase III drill program at its
wholly-owned Kibi Gold Trend Project, located in the Kibi - Winneba
greenstone belt ("Kibi Gold Belt"), in Ghana, West Africa.
Drilling highlights from the South Ridge Granitoid of Zone 2
include surface or near surface granitoid-hosted gold
mineralization intercepts of 19.5 metres grading 1.52 grams per
tonne ("g/t") gold in drill hole #KBDD10085; 25.5 metres grading
1.50 g/t in hole #KBDD10086 and 23 metres grading 1.74 g/t gold in
hole #KBDD10090. Hole #KBDD10091 encountered a 17.0 metres
intersection grading 2.42 g/t. Drilling is continuing.
Seven (7) out of the 9 holes targeted gold mineralization in the
South Ridge Granitoid body located at the north-western extremity
of the approximately 1,200 metre long by 500 metre to 800 metre
wide Zone 2 gold-in-soil anomaly. This drilling was designed to
follow-up on reverse circulation hole #KBRC09068 which returned a
76.0 metre mineralized intercept grading 1.62 gold, including 20.0
metre grading 3.36 g/t gold, from surface (see October 28, 2009
Press Release), and to test mineralization exposed in recent
trenching in the area. The remaining two (2) holes targeted the
Central Granitoid and the Upper Central Granitoid bodies,
respectively.
Six (6) out of the present 7 holes targeting the South Ridge
Granitoid yielded significant gold intercepts, with all mineralized
intercepts consisting of granitoid - hosted gold mineralization
spanning from 2 metre to 72 metre in core length (see Significant
Drill Intercept Table). Drilling and trenching to date have traced
an extensive system of en echelon extension vein arrays across an
approximately 440 metre distance along the SE-trending South Ridge
Granitoid body. Gold mineralization is associated with
quartz-albite-carbonate-sulphide veining developed within a rock
body of quartz diorite to tonalite composition. Additional
trenching/drilling is required to further define the extent and
strike length of the quartz vein arrays, the structural controls of
the mineralization, and the contacts of the host granitoid
body.

About Xtra-Gold Resources Corp.
Xtra-Gold is a gold exploration company with a land position in
the Kibi greenstone belt ('Kibi Gold Belt') located in Ghana, West
Africa. The Kibi Gold Belt, which exhibits many similar geological
features to Ghana's main gold belt, the Ashanti Belt has been the
subject of very limited modern exploration activity targeting lode
gold deposits as virtually all past gold mining activity and
exploration efforts focused on the extensive alluvial gold
occurrences in many river valleys throughout the Kibi area.
Xtra-Gold holds five (5) Mining Leases totalling approximately
226 sq km (22,600 ha) at the northern extremity of the Kibi Gold
Belt. The Company's exploration efforts to date have focussed on
the Kibi Project located on the Apapam Concession (33.65 sq km),
along the eastern flank of the Kibi Gold Belt. Xtra-Gold's Kibi
Project consists of an over 5.5 km long mineralized trend
delineated from gold-in-soil anomalies, geophysical
interpretations, trenching and drilling along the northwest margin
of the Apapam Concession.
