Amador Gold Amends Private Placement

Amador Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:AGX) (the "Company") announces that subsequent to
its news release of December 9, 2010 and subject to regulatory approval, it has
amended the price of its brokered private placement of flow through shares from
$0.20 to $0.25 per unit. Each $0.25 unit will consist of one flow through common
share and one-half of one non-flow through, non-transferable share purchase
warrant. Each full warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one additional
common share of the Company at a price of $0.30 for a period of two years from
closing the private placement.


The private placement consists of up to 4,000,000 units. The private placement
and any modifications to it are subject to compliance with applicable securities
laws and to receipt of regulatory approval. The Company may pay finders' fees in
accordance with the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange. A portion of this
financing may be non-brokered with third party investors or brokers.


Proceeds of the financing will be used to undertake drill programs planned for
the Company's highly prospective Dale Gold, Sewell, Horwood, Loveland and
Silverclaim properties located in the Timmins, Ontario mining area. The Company
will be announcing specific plans for each project shortly.


M Partners Inc. has been retained as lead agent in connection with the Offering
and as financial advisor to explore strategic alternatives for the Company. M
Partners are located in Toronto and Vancouver with over 25 professionals serving
the needs of their institutional and retail clients.
