Brigadier Gold Limited (TSX VENTURE:BRG) (FRANKFURT:B7LN)

Bigadier Gold Limited's drilling contractor, Falcon Drilling (Barbados)
Succursal Argentina, has, since the commencement of drilling in early March,
completed approximately 641 metres of the planned 1500 metres on the Incamayo
project in northwest Argentina. 


An initial two holes have been completed to test the northern end of known
mineralization on the property, with the first hole at -60 degrees  twinning
CG97-07 (the best of nine holes drilled on the property in 1997 by Mansfield
Minerals) and the second hole drilled at an angle of -50 degrees  to aid in
defining further parameters to the mineralization.


The nine holes drilled by Mansfield were originally designed to test for
economic grade mineralization below several well-mineralized sections
encountered in trenches excavated during the previous exploration season. The
Mansfield discovery hole (CG97-07), located 600 metres to the northeast of other
mineralized holes, was reported in a Mansfield November 14, 1997, news release
on Stockwatch (www.stockwatch.com) and is available on Sedar (www.sedar.com). 


Brigadier's DDHCG11-01 has intersected massive to disseminated mineralization
over a 53.0 metre interval from 106.3 metres to 159.3 metres in depth that
matches the intersection as described in the original Mansfield reverse
circulation hole, including a 7.0 metre interval from 106.3 to 113.3 metres
containing numerous intervals of massive to semi-massive sulphide veins. Below
160 metres disseminated sulphides occur to the end of the hole at 298.5 metres
with an interval of sulphide breccia from 288.35 to 289.33 metres.


The second hole completed (DDHCG11-02) was drilled at -50 degrees  to overcut
DDHCG11-01, and predominantly intersected disseminated mineralization.
Silicified breccia and variably silicified sandstone occur from 18.4 to 25.6
metres with strong vuggy iron oxidation. From 80.8 - 127 metres occurred
variable silicification with breccias and up to 8% disseminated and massive
sulphides. Vuggy goethitic oxidation is often associated with the breccias and
silicification. Hole DDHCG11-02 did not cut the massive to semi-massive
mineralization as seen in DDHCG11-01. This may be an indication that
mineralization is improving with depth.


Results of the IP survey, which was commenced on the property by Argali
Geophysica of Antofagasta, Chile in December, 2010, and was completed prior to
the start of the drill program, show that the above holes are located at the
southeastern edge of a large, untested chargeability anomaly.


As noted in Brigadier's February 8, 2011, news release on Stockwatch
(www.stockwatch.com) and available on Sedar (www.sedar.com), a review of the
1997 drill program had determined that many of the 6 drill holes on the southern
part of the property were oriented incorrectly to test the mineralized zones
exposed at surface.


Hole DDHCG11-03 is located approximately 600 metres southwest of holes 1 and 2
and was drilled at -60 degrees  and designed to cut a series of mineralized
(auriferous) silicified zones exposed on surface and in trenches. This style of
mineralization differs markedly from that seen in DDHCG11-01 and 02 and probably
represents a different mineralizing event.


DDHCG11-03 intersected several zones of mineralization comprising quartz
stockworks with ubiquitous iron oxides after sulphides, the most important being
from 0 to 4 metres, 17.2 to 27.6 metres, 32.4 to 40.3 metres and 69.1 to 80.0
metres. From 82.5 to 83.9 metres and from 106.5 to 109.2 metres occur numerous
narrow veins of massive to semi-massive sulphides. This hole is located in an
area where 4 Mansfield holes are believed to have been drilled to test surface
mineralization.


Assay results on the above holes are pending and will be reported once received.
Drilling is continuing apace.


Qualified person and quality assurance/quality control: Tom Carpenter, BSc,
PGeo, of Discovery Consultants, and a qualified person as defined by National
Instrument 43-101, has supervised the preparation of the scientific and
technical information that forms the basis for this news release. Mr. Carpenter
is not independent of Brigadier by virtue of being a holder of incentive stock
options. 


Brigadier's work programs are supervised by Mr. Carpenter, who is responsible
for all aspects of the work, including the quality control/quality assurance
program. On-site personnel at the project rigorously collect and track samples
which are then sealed and shipped via bonded courier to the facilities of Acme
Analytical Laboratories (Argentina) S.A. in Mendoza, Argentina, for analysis.
Representative blank, duplicate and standard samples are forwarded to Acme for
quality control purposes.


Acme's quality control system complies with International Standard ISO 9001:2000
requirements. Analytical accuracy and precision are monitored by the analyses of
reagent blanks, reference material and replicate samples. Quality control is
further assured by the use of international and in-house standards.
