Northern Gold Reports Channel Samples at Buffonta

NORTHERN GOLD MINING INC. (TSX VENTURE:NGM) ("Northern Gold" or the "Company")
is pleased to announce the results of its summer field exploration program.
During the field season of 2013 (May to October) the Company was active in
exploring surface gold showings on several of its properties. This press release
highlights the results from channel sampling at the Buffonta property, located
south of the Garrison Project.


Buffonta Property (#5 Zone) 

In 2013 the Company excavated the surface outcrop of the Buffonta #5 zone to
complete geologic mapping and channel sampling. The Buffonta #5 zone is a shear
hosted deposit along the Buffonta Turner fault. The zone has a known strike
length of over 150m and has been traced at depth to over 120m. The #5 zone hosts
a historical resource of 140,988 tonnes @ 4.82g/t (21,860 oz. Au)(1). A
qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical
resource estimate as current mineral resources nor is the Company treating the
historical estimate as current mineral resources. Additional confirmatory
drilling would be required to classify the historical estimate as a current
mineral resource. A table of highlighted surface channel sample results from the
#5 Zone are shown below:




Channel IDs            Grade (g/t)       Length (m)

Buffonta Property (Elbow and Roadside Zones) 

In 2013 the Company excavated two additional surface outcrops to complete
geologic mapping and channel sampling. The two zones are near to but not
directly related to the #6 and #5 Zones on the Buffonta property. These two new
zones the Elbow and Roadside have shown anomalous gold tenures and locally
higher grade gold mineralization. A table of highlighted surface channel sample
results from the Elbow and Roadside Zones are shown below:




Channel IDs            Grade (g/t)       Length (m)        
BR5-2                  1.36g/t           1.0m              
BR6-3                  1.50g/t           1.0m              
BR7-3                  2.38g/t           1.2m              
BR8-1                  1.83g/t           1.2m              
BE-3                   8.00g/t           1.0m

Martin Shefsky, Interim President and CEO of Northern Gold, comments: "This
initial surface exploration work demonstrates near surface opportunities for
higher grade mineralization, and will be a focus for a future drilling program."
