This NI 43-101 compliant updated estimate increases the amount of uranium contained in the Indicated Resource by 39% to 28.5 million pounds of U3O8 and increases the overall size of the deposit. Tetra Tech, Inc., the firm that is conducting the ongoing Prefeasibility Study on Kuriskova, has reviewed, audited and approved the updated resource estimate.

Highlights of the updated estimate include:

-- About 7.9 million pounds of U3O8 have been added to the Indicated Resource category, increasing the Indicated Resource by 39% to 28.5 million pounds of U3O8;

-- Overall the uranium oxide contained in the Kuriskova deposit has increased by 3.1 million pounds of U3O8 and now comprises 28.5 million pounds at 0.555% U3O8 in the Indicated Resource and an additional 12.7 million pounds in Inferred Resource at 0.185% U3O8; and

Marathon Gold intersects 2.57 g/t Au over 20.25m (TW) including 16.55 g/t Au over 2.25m (TW) near surface at the Leprechaun Gold Deposit

Marathon Gold Corp MOZ

announced today the near surface intersection of a wide interval of gold mineralization at the Leprechaun Gold Deposit; the first defined gold resource within the highly prospective Valentine Lake Property in central Newfoundland. Drill hole VL-11-282 intersected 2.57 g/t Au over 20.25m, including 16.55 g/t Au over 2.25m, within 25m of the surface(Figure - LP). Other significant near surface intersections included 1.33 g/t Au over 9.6m with 5.53 g/t Au over 1.6m in VL-11-263 and 1.39 g/ Au over 6.7m with 4.79 g/t Au over 0.95m in VL-11-283. The Valentine Lake Project is a 50/50 venture between Marathon and Mountain Lake.

Highlights:

--The wide gold intersection of 2.57 g/t Au over 20.25m with

16.55 g/t Au over 2.25 in VL-11-282 confirms the potential for

significant additional near surface mineralization as we

continue with future in-fill and step out drilling at the

Leprechaun Gold deposit

--These new drill results show the continuation of near surface

gold mineralization, including wide intervals with high-grade

intercepts, over more than a200m strike length along the

eastern margin of the Leprechaun Gold Deposit

--This new mineralization will effectively extend the limit of

the pit boundary eastward into the footwall sediments

--Drilling has ceased for the spring break-up but will resume in

the spring when the remaining 18,000 m of the program will

begin.

Xtra-Gold Reports 15 Metres of 2.05 Grams and 14 Metres of 2.36 Grams in Two Kibi Holes

Xtra-Gold Resources Corp. ("Xtra" or the "Company") (TSX:XTG) (TSX:XTG-S) (OTCBB:XTGR) is pleased to report that the first two diamond core holes from the current 20,000 metre drill program have significantly expanded known gold mineralization down plunge on the Zone 2 -- East Dyke Granitoid at its wholly-owned Kibi Gold Trend Project, located in the Kibi -- Winneba greenstone belt ("Kibi Gold Belt"), in Ghana, West Africa

The vertical fan pattern holes (379 metres) successfully expanded the gold mineralization to a down plunge depth of approximately 200 metres.

Highlights of these holes include classical granitoid--hosted gold mineralization intercepts of:


--15 metres grading 2.05 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold, including 5 metres
grading 4.00 g/t gold, in KBDD11105;
--14 metres grading 2.36 g/t gold, including 5 metres grading 5.18 g/t
gold, in KBDD11106.

The upper #KBDD11105 borehole (-50 degrees dip) yielded a significant mineralized intercept of 15 metres grading 2.05 g/t gold, including 5 metres grading 4.0 g/t gold, from a down hole depth of 105 metres, approximately 60 metres down dip from the scout hole #KBD08010 intercept; and the steeper #KBDD11106 borehole (-70 degrees) returned a mineralized intercept of 14 m grading 2.36 g/t gold, including 5 metres grading 5.18 g/t gold from a down hole depth of 141 metres, approximately 65 metres down dip of the #KBDD11105 intercept.

About Xtra-Gold Resources Corp.

Xtra-Gold is a gold exploration company with a substantial 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.
