Duncastle Gold Corp. ("Duncastle") (TSX VENTURE: DUN)(FRANKFURT: 5D3) reported today that assay results from the final four of six core holes, totaling 2,583 meters, from its Porphyry Creek project, continue to outline thick and strongly anomalous intervals of copper and molybdenum mineralization which remain open laterally and at depth. The 2011 drilling was conducted on the Sultana mine, one of six high priority targets located on the 136 square kilometer Porphyry Creek property.

Drilling encountered several significant intervals of greater than 0.1% copper including:

--  a 31.0 meter interval averaging 0.14% copper and 0.02% molybdenum (0.24%
    CuEq) within an overall 226 meter interval averaging 0.09% copper and
    0.01% molybdenum (0.14% CuEq) from PC11-06; and
--  a 28.0 meter interval averaging 0.05% copper and 0.06% molybdenum (0.34%
    CuEq) within an overall 397 meter interval averaging 0.05% copper and
    0.01% molybdenum (0.1% CuEq) from PC11-07

The two drill holes tested an area between and to the west of previously reported drilling from holes PC11-04 (51 meters of 0.11% Cu and 0.021% Mo) and PC11-05 (36 meters of 0.11% Cu and 0.029% Mo) and continue to demonstrate both the depth and internal continuity of the mineralized zone.

Anomalous copper and molybdenum mineralization was also identified in holes PC11-08 and PC11-09 which tested to the south and north of the earlier drilling.

The results define a mineralized zone of approximately 400 meters by 500 meters by 500 meters deep containing widespread highly anomalous copper and molybdenum mineralization, with additional values of silver, tungsten and other minerals. Mineralization remains open laterally to the west, south and north, and at depth. Further drilling is required to test and delineate the full extent of the mineralizing system.

Duncastle's geological team includes Peter Ogryzlo, PGeo, as Senior Consulting Geologist. Mr Ogryzlo is a recognized porphyry expert who brings more than 40 years of exploration and mining experience to the team with a focus on the development and operation of porphyry copper deposits in British Columbia. He was Senior Mine Geologist at Huckleberry Mines, located 130 km south of Porphyry Creek, and was part of the team that brought the MZX Pit through exploration, development and into production in three years.

Mr Ogryzlo stated: "The Porphyry Creek Cu-Mo system is large, and only partially tested. Copper and molybdenum are ubiquitous.Duncastle is using innovative processing of the geophysical surveys, and systematic drilling as vectors to direct their search for economic concentrations of these metals."

The discovery is appropriate to the area, which is dominated by Cu +/-Mo +/-Au/Ag porphyry projects in various stages of development from development through production, including:

--  Huckleberry Mine - a copper porphyry mine 130km south of Porphyry Creek
    with historic production from 80Mt of 0.5% Cu and 0.014% Mo from 1997 to
    2008, current reserves of 14Mt at 0.362% Cu and 0.005% Mo, plus current
    resources of 94.4Mt at 0.339% Cu (measured), 88.6Mt at 0.301% Cu
    (indicated) and 45.4Mt at 0.288% Cu (inferred).
--  Berg Project - a copper-molybdenum porphyry 120km south of Porphyry
    Creek with resources of 53.3Mt at 0.48% Cu and 0.03% Mo (measured),
    452.7Mt at 0.28% Cu and 0.038% Mo (indicated), and 144.6Mt at 0.23% Cu
    and 0.033% Mo (inferred), plus Ag values.
--  Endako Mine - a molybdenum porphyry mine 160km southeast of Porphyry
    Creek that commenced operation in 1965 and has current reserves of
    140.9Mt at 0.047% Mo (measured) and 199.3Mt at 0.045% Mo (indicated),
    plus additional resource estimates.

Other large porphyry deposits are located 170km to 270km to the north including Red Chris, Schaft Creek, KSM, Galore Creek among others.

The copper equivalent (CuEq) calculation was based on long-term average Mo/Cu metal price to arrive at a ratio of 5 to 1. The CuEq calculations reflect gross metal content and have not been adjusted for relative metal recoveries, or relative processing and smelting costs.

Additional drilling is recommended to the south, west and north of the nine holes completed to date in the 2010 and 2011 drill programs. Only a portion of the target area (1200 meters x 800 meters based on coincident geophysical anomalies) has been tested, and strong copper and molybdenum values occur on the edges of the current drill pattern which project into untested areas. Further surface geological work is also recommended, including a ground-based geophysical survey, in order to more rapidly target geological structures expected to host higher grades of mineralization.

About the Porphyry Creek Project

There are over 20 porphyry discoveries in the region, including Berg, Bell, Huckleberry, Mt Milligan, and Galore Creek among others, plus other deposit types (eg Eskay Creek). The Porphyry Creek claim group includes historic workings and numerous high-grade gold, silver and polymetallic showings around a distinct 10 kilometer long magnetic high with coincident copper, lead and zinc geochemical anomalies shown in government data and Duncastle's work to date.
