Taku Earns 100% of Rosebute Property in the White Gold Area of Yukon

Taku Gold Corp. (the "Taku") (TSX VENTURE:TAK) is pleased to announce that as of
March 30, 2014 it has made all the cash payments, incurred all the required work
expenditures, and issued and delivered all the shares due to vendor Shawn Ryan
("Ryan") under the Option Agreement (the "Agreement") executed on March 30, 2010
for the Rosebute Property ("Rosebute") in the White Gold area of Yukon.
Accordingly, Taku is now deemed to have exercised the Option and to have
acquired an undivided 100% right, title and interest in and to Rosebute. Ryan
retains a 2.0% Net Smelter Returns royalty on mineral production, half of which
(i.e., 1.0%) Taku may purchase for $2,000,000.


The 694-claim (14,080-hectare) Rosebute property is located approximately 65
kilometres ("km") due south of Dawson City. Taku has completed extensive
exploration on Rosebute including 1,107km of airborne radiometric and magnetic
geophysical surveys, 10,087 deep auger-type soil geochemical samples, 90
prospecting rock samples, 963 metres ("m") of drilling in four holes, 1,341m of
trenching in nine trenches, 7,885m of induced polarization and resistivity
geophysical surveys on 19 lines, 680m of Geoprobe(R) bedrock geochemical
sampling.


To date, three target areas have been identified. The "Nor'West" zone consists
of a cluster of three gold-in-soil anomalies within a circular feature covering
roughly 450 hectares in the northern part of the Rosebute Property. The first
anomaly is located in the northern part of the area. It is well defined over an
east trending length of 900m and shows maximum values up to 212 parts per
billion gold ("ppb Au") or 0.2 grams per tonne gold ("gpt Au"). The second
anomaly is located in the southern part of the area. It is well defined over an
east trending length of 500m and shows maximum values up to 1,334ppb Au or
1.3gpt Au. The third anomaly is located in the eastern part of the gridded area.
It is well defined over an east trending length of 450m and shows maximum values
up to 254ppb Au or 0.3gpt Au. In July 2012, 963m of drilling was done in four
holes to test the subsurface extent of the three gold-in-soil anomalies that
collectively make up the Nor'West zone. Three of the four holes returned notable
gold intersections. Including 0.95gpt Au over 23.4m from 22.6m in the first
hole, 1.58gpt Au over 1.0m from 19.0m in the second and 0.88gpt Au over 3.0m
from 66.0m in the fourth.


The second or "HudBay" zone was first identified approximately 2.5km southwest
of the Nor'West zone with two discreet anomalous ridge and spur samples
collected in 2011. Subsequent detailed sampling has outlined a very strong
gold-in-soil zone trending northwest over a length of at least 1200m that varies
from 150 to 350m wide and shows a maximum value of 0.9 gpt Au in soils. The
southern end of the zone is especially strong with almost every sample showing
strongly anomalous gold-in-soil values greater than 60ppb Au within an area 500m
long by 350m wide. Trenching in 2011 traced the zone over a 600m horizontal
distance highlighted by sampling that included 6.17gpt Au over 5.0m in one
trench and 1.50g/t Au over 20.0m in a second trench.


In 2013, Geoprobe(R) bedrock geochemical sampling found highly anomalous results
with maximum values up to 4.3gpt Au. Together the soil geochemical, trenching
and Geoprobe(R) results clearly define a linear, north-trending, gold-bearing
structure that varies from 10 to 30 metres wide over a horizontal distance o
1,100m. Very strong correlation is seen between gold and silver, tellurium,
mercury and, to a lesser degree tungsten and arsenic. Moreover, corresponding
resistivity trends recognized by geophysical surveys completed in 2013 further
delineate the extent of the HudBay zone.


The third or "Southeast" zone is identified by an anomalous gold-in-soil trend
approximately 750m southeast of the Hudbay zone that varies from 50 to 250m wide
over a length of 650m with maximum values up to 96ppb Au. The induced
polarization and resistivity survey completed in 2013 outlines a resistivity
trend that corresponds very well to the gold-in-soil trend. Although the
Southeast zone has much smaller dimensions and lower gold values than the
Nor-West or Hudbay zones, it is nonetheless interesting.


In summary, the Rosebute property offers one of the best exploration plays in
the White Gold area. To date, no drilling has been completed on the HudBay or
Southeast zones and only limited drilling has been done on the Nor'West zone.
All three target areas are well-defined by geochemical and/or geophysical trends
and are at the drill-ready stage. Taku is actively seeking a joint venture
partner to continue exploration work on Rosebute.


"Rosebute remains an excellent gold project despite the down-turn in Yukon's
exploration sector. One way or another we hope to make a significant discovery
on this property with drilling," comments Zak Dingsdale, president and CEO of
Taku.


All analytical results mentioned in this release were determined by Acme
Analytical Laboratories Ltd. ("Acme") in


Vancouver, British Columbia. Acme is accredited under ISO 9001. Rock and core
samples were prepared by crushing one kilogram to 80 per cent passing minus 10
mesh and then pulverizing a 250-gram subsample to 85 per cent passing minus 200
mesh. Each subsample was analyzed for 36 elements (including gold) by 15 gram
Aqua Regia digestion, ICP-MS finish. In addition, each subsample was analyzed
for gold by 30g fire assay, ICP-ES finish. Soil samples were prepared by drying
and sieving 100g to -80 mesh, and then analyzed for 36 elements (including gold)
by 15 gram Aqua Regia digestion, ICP-MS finish.
