Gonzaga Provides Exploration Program Update on Kennedy River Project

GONZAGA RESOURCES LTD. (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:GN) provides an update on
its exploration program at its Kennedy River Project (the "Property") located
near Port Alberni, Vancouver Island, British Columbia.


The Property covers roughly half of the historic Kennedy River Gold District and
has potential to host significant zones of sheeted vein type gold
mineralization. Previous exploration work carried out by Kerr Addison Mines in
the late 1980's combined with soil geochemical surveys and 3D IP (induced
polarization) surveys carried out by the Company in 2010 identified a high
priority target in the central part of the Property referred to as the G-1
Target. The objective of the Company's Phase 1 work program, as recommended in
an independent 43-101 technical report was to further delineate the extent of
the "gold in soil geochemical anomaly" associated with the G-1 Target area.


During November 2011, field crews completed part of the Phase 1 program by
collecting approximately 250 soil and rock samples from the G-1 Target area.
Soil sample assays from the initial program ranged from trace levels to 0.614
g/t gold and indicated potential for extensions of the mineralized zone to the
west.


During March 2012 field crews collected an additional 513 soil samples along 25
meter spaced, north-south oriented profile lines. Wherever bedrock was
encountered within the grid area rock samples were also collected for
comparative assay.


Results of the soil sampling program have confirmed that the mineralized zone
associated with the G-1 Target extends to the west and have also identified a
second area of elevated "gold in soil" values in the south western part of the
survey grid. Both the main anomaly and the new soil anomaly are still open to
the west. Elevated "gold in soil" values within the main part of the G-1 Target
area have defined a 150 meter wide zone that extends roughly 300 meters east
west. Gold values within this zone range from 0.050 g/t gold to 0.614 g/t gold
and include numerous samples that exceed 0.100 g/t gold. The new anomaly
(located approximately 100 meters south of the main anomaly) is approximately 75
meters in width and has been defined over a strike length of roughly 100 meters.
Gold in soil values within the new anomaly range from 0.051 to 0.111 g/ton.


Results of the rock sampling program and petrographic work are still pending and
will be announced as they become available. Based on results received to date
the G-1 Target appears to warrant additional evaluation work.


All samples from the current exploration program were submitted to the ALS Group
assay facility in North Vancouver. Samples were analyzed by fire assay for gold
(Au-ICP-AES finish) and for a suite of 35 elements using aqua regia digestion
and standard ICP-AES techniques. ALS Group includes duplicate and industry
standard analyses as part of its internal QA and QC program. The ALS Group QA
and QC provisions are considered adequate for the current program and no
additional measures were implemented.
