Terraco Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:TEN) ("Terraco" or the "Company") is pleased to report additional assay results from the 2012 drill program completed at its Almaden (Nutmeg Mountain) Project located in Washington County, Idaho. The Company is reporting the remaining 6 holes of the spring 2012 core drilling program. Assay results from this in-fill core drilling again encountered significant intercepts from surface to 76.8 metres ("m") or 252 feet ("ft"). Many holes intersected gold grades exceeding the average grade of the deposit and include shorter sections assaying up to 10.80 grams per tonne ("gpt") gold. Drill Highlights Include: -- Hole TAL-787C intersected 60.4 m averaging 1.065 gpt gold, including 21.3 m averaging 1.881 gpt gold with 13.7 m of 2.246 gpt gold; -- Hole TAL-792C intersected 76.8 m averaging 0.939 gpt gold, including 12.2 m averaging 1.435 gpt gold, 4.6 m of 1.209 gpt gold, 7.6 m of 1.662 gpt gold and 1.5 m averaging 2.270 gpt gold; -- Hole TAL-793C intersected 48.8 m averaging 0.944 gpt gold, including 18.3 m averaging 1.373 gpt gold and 3.0 m averaging 1.625 gpt gold; -- Hole TAL-794C intersected 24.4 m averaging 1.000 gpt gold, including 10.7 m averaging 1.409 gpt gold, and an additional 13.7 m of 1.794 gpt gold; including 1.5 m of 10.800 gpt gold. A table summarizing this round of drill results can be found at the conclusion of this news release. Todd Hilditch, President and CEO of Terraco, stated: "We are very pleased with the success of the spring 2012 drill program. Today's drill results continue to show good gold grade over longer widths within the deposit. In addition, this round of drilling encountered some very interesting higher grade, sulfide rich breccia which could represent a broader network of near vertical discrete feeders along high angle structures. This interpretation deserves further study and will form part of the ongoing decision-making process for further exploration." Drill Program Summary The 2012 exploration program was designed to accomplish 3 goals: 1. continue to test continuity and confirm the grade of the deposit internally by obtaining better, more representative, samples through the use of core drilling instead of reverse-circulation ("RC") drilling; 2. obtain large diameter core samples for metallurgical testwork that will address specific questions unanswered in prior metallurgical studies; and 3. explore for high grade feeder zones below and laterally away from the known resource. Terraco's 2012 drill program utilized HQ3 core drilling in mostly shallow holes in 4 different areas of the deposit aimed at: -- better defining resources in the areas of older conventional rotary and RC drilling; and -- compare grades between various drilling techniques. Assay results are summarized in the table below.

Intervals were calculated using a 0.34 gpt (0.010 opt) gold cut-off and may include short intervals of values below the cut-off grade. Intervals are converted from ft to m. Rounding to metres may affect interval values. Assay determinations for gold were made by 50 gram fire assay, using an AA finish. Analyses were performed by ALS Minerals USA, Inc. of Reno Nevada.

The majority of previous drilling was completed using conventional rotary (RAB) and RC drilling. The NI 43-101 compliant resource is based on cut-off grades of 0.008 opt, 0.012 opt and 0.023 opt for the oxide, mixed and sulfide mineralization, respectively: -- Measured resource of 239,000 ounces of gold (10,810,000 tons grading 0.022 opt); -- Indicated resource of 625,000 ounces of gold (32,240,000 tons grading 0.019 opt); -- Inferred resource of 84,000 ounces of gold (5,270,000 tons grading 0.016 opt); and -- Total gold resource of 948,000 ounces (48,320,000 tons grading 0.020 opt). Drilling during 2012 at the Almaden (Nutmeg Mountain) Project was conducted by Marcus and Marcus Exploration of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, and National EWP, Inc. of Hayden, Idaho.
