Williams Creek Gold Limited (TSX VENTURE:WCX) ("Williams Creek", "WCX" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the completion of its Phase I trenching program on its 100% owned Pine Property in the Cariboo Region, British Columbia, Canada. The Company trenched a total of 275 meters (902.2 feet) in the early part of August 2012. Trenches were shallow as bedrock was found to be within one to two meters from surface. A total of eight samples were taken and the results appear in the table below. SAMPLE Au-ICP21 Au-GRA21 ME-ICP41 DESCRIPTION Au Au Ag ppm ppm ppm L363951 0.365 less than 0.2 L363952 0.064 less than 0.2 L363953 3.53 less than 0.2 L363954 0.024 less than 0.2 L363955(i) greater than 10.0 24 less than 0.2 L363956 0.008 less than 0.2 L363957 0.091 less than 0.2 L363958 0.041 0.2 (i) Sample L363955 was taken from a 0.3m quartz vein. While few mineralized faults or veins were recognized and sampled during the trenching, the three strongly anomalous samples occur in the same area where 2005 and 2011 soil grids indicated strongly anomalous soils. The combination of the historical soil grids and the 2012 trench results suggest the presence of a north- northeast trending zone of gold mineralization. "We are pleased with these encouraging results," stated Company Chairman and CEO, Michael R. Sonnenreich, "and will be expanding the trenching program to follow up on these anomalies. The Phase II trenching program expansion is anticipated to begin within the next few weeks." Williams Creek Gold has also embarked on a compilation of historic data, combined with current fieldwork, on its 100% owned Ahbau Creek Property, acquired from New Gold Inc. (News Release WCX12-03, March 7, 2012). The property contains a well-documented gold zone with a published non-National Instrument 43-101 compliant "drill indicated" potential of 45,355 tonnes grading 10.2 g/t gold (Newton 1988). The gold zone consists of gold bearing massive sulphide veins. Mineralized structures and felsic to intermediate intrusive dykes and sills, apparently related to the Naver Pluton, are secondary targets. Mr. Sonnenreich noted, "The Company is very interested in determining the viability of developing a small mining program centered on the Ahbau Creek Gold Zone. This is precisely the type of project that Williams Creek Gold has targeted in an effort to diversify its holdings and increase shareholder value." Williams Creek recently completed a soil geochemical program on its wholly owned Ahbau Lake property, and is awaiting assay results. The Atis Creek - Chubby Bear property, acquired from New Gold Inc. (News Release WCX12-03, March 7, 2012), is currently the subject of ongoing geochemical soil sampling programs. The technical information contained in this news release was prepared by Robert E. "Ned" Reid, P.Geo., a "Qualified Person" as defined under National Instrument 43-101.

Sonnenreich, Chairman and CEO Williams Creek Gold Limited This news release may contain forward-looking statements including management's assessments of future plans and operations, and expectations of future production. These statements are based on current expectations that involve a number of risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated. These risks include, but are not limited to, the risks associated with the mining and exploration industry (e.g. operational risks in development, exploration and production; delays or changes in plans with respect to exploration or development projects or capital expenditures; the uncertainty of reserve estimates; the uncertainty of estimates and projections relating to production and the uncertainty of the availability of capital). The assumptions used in the preparation of such statements, although considered reasonable at the time of preparation, may prove to be imprecise and, as such, undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements.
