Midas Gold Completes Mineral Resource Update with a Doubling of Gold in Indicated Category-Overall Contained Gold at Golden Meadows increases 22%; First Antimony & Silver Estimates

Midas Gold Corp. (TSX:MAX)

today announced the last of three planned independent NI43-101 mineral resource estimates for its Golden Meadows Project in Idaho, completing the process of updating its mineral resource estimates to incorporate second half of 2011 and early 2012 drill results. These updated estimates resulted in an overall 22% increase in contained gold at Golden Meadows in just six months of drilling. Including the previously announced updates for the West End and Yellow Pine deposits, gold contained in indicated mineral resources has increased 103% (to 4.23 million oz at a grade of 1.68 g/t gold) from the June 2011 estimate. A total of 59% of the contained gold at Golden Meadows is now in the indicated category, while 41% (2.89 million oz at a grade of 1.60g/t gold) is in the inferred category.

Furthermore, antimony and silver have been added to the Yellow Pine and Hangar Flats mineral resource estimates, with 108.5 million pounds of contained antimony in the indicated category and an additional 92.8 million pounds of contained antimony inferred within the overall mineral resource. While each element is reported below for each of the three deposits, as constrained in the base case Whittle® pits, higher grade antimony and silver subdomains are also reported separately within 0.1% antimony shells, as detailed on the following page, which subdomains host all of the modelled antimony and have an average grade of 0.49% antimony. Antimony was not modelled outside the 0.1% antimony shell.
