Taku Samples Up to 3.4 Grams Per Tonne Gold at Rosebute in White Gold District of Yukon

Taku Gold Corp. (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:TAK) is pleased to announce results
from detailed deep auger-type soil sampling completed over a grid established in
the northern part of the Rosebute property. The 544-claim (11,260-hectare)
property is located approximately 55km due south of Dawson City in the White
Gold area of Yukon. The property was acquired in 2010 from well-known Yukon
prospector Shawn Ryan. The detailed grid sampling was completed over a
prospective area first identified by Ryan in 2009 and initially grid sampled by
Taku in 2010.


Sample results in 2011 are well above the 2010 results and confirm the gold
potential over an area covering approximately 9 claims (189ha). Sample density
on this area is now at 50m sample stations on lines spaced at 50m apart and
three distinct anomalies are delineated. The first anomaly is located in the
northern part of the gridded 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). The second anomaly is located in the southern part of the gridded area. It
is well defined over an east trending length of 500m and shows maximum values up
to 1334ppb Au or 1.3 grams per tonne gold (gpt Au). The third anomaly is located
in the eastern part of the property. It is well defined over an east trending
length of 450m and shows maximum values up to 254ppb Au. The first and third
anomalies line up in a west to east trend and may in fact identify one
gold-bearing zone up to 1.8km long. More work will have to be done to establish
if this is a valid interpretation.


Elsewhere on the property a gold value of 3.4gpt Au was returned from a ridge
and spur soil sample collected at a location approximately 3km north of the
gridded area. Results are pending for approximately 550 ridge and spur soil
samples collected mostly in the southern part of the property.


"Our next step will be to prospect, trench and sample the three gold zones
identified in the gridded area. The area where the 3.4g/t sample was collected
also needs to be checked out," comments Zak Dingsdale, President.


All soil samples were collected by Breakaway Exploration Management Inc. All
analytical work was completed at Acme Analytical Laboratories Ltd. ("Acme") in
Vancouver, British Columbia. Acme is accredited under ISO 9001. 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. Mark
Fekete, P.Geo is the designated "qualified person" as defined in Section 1.2 in
