Tagish Lake Obtains Interim Order for Plan of Arrangement

Tagish Lake Gold Corp. (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:TLG) announces that the
Supreme Court of British Columbia (the "Court"), on November 3, 2010, issued an
interim order authorizing the Company to, among other things, call a meeting of
its shareholders (the "Meeting") to consider and, if deemed advisable, pass a
special resolution approving the proposed arrangement (the "Arrangement")
involving New Pacific Metals Corp. ("New Pacific"), as previously announced on
October 29, 2010. 


Pursuant to the proposed Arrangement, New Pacific would acquire all of the
issued and outstanding common shares of the Company ("Shares") which it does not
currently hold. New Pacific currently holds approximately 79.2% of the
outstanding Shares. The Arrangement is being proposed in order to allow New
Pacific to acquire the Shares that were not deposited under the recently expired
take-over bid by New Pacific for the Shares. If the Arrangement is completed,
the Company will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of New Pacific.


The Company intends to hold the Meeting at 10:00 a.m. (Vancouver time) on
December 15, 2010, at the offices of Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP, at Suite
2600, 595 Burrard Street, Three Bentall Centre, Vancouver, B.C. The record date
for determining the holders of Shares that will be entitled to receive notice of
and to vote at the Meeting is November 12, 2010. The special resolution
approving the proposed Arrangement must be approved by at least two-thirds of
the votes cast by shareholders represented in person or by proxy at the Meeting.


The Company also received, on November 3, 2010, an order of the Court vacating
the October 8, 2010 order of the Court requiring the holding of a meeting of the
shareholders of the Company on November 17, 2010. As disclosed in the October
27, 2010 news release of the Company, the previous directors of the Company have
each resigned and have been replaced with nominees of New Pacific. Given that
the only matter to have been considered at the November 17, 2010 meeting was the
removal and appointment of the directors, that meeting was no longer necessary.
