DUN

Duncastle Gold Corp. ("Duncastle" or the "Company") (TSX
VENTURE:DUN)(FRANKFURT:5D3) announced today that the Government of Yukon has
awarded a Yukon Mineral Exploration Program grant to its Catalyst PGM-Ni-Cu
Project, located 260 kilometers west of Whitehorse and adjacent to the Wellgreen
PGM-Ni-Cu project, presently under advanced assessment by Wellgreen Platinum
Ltd. with an Indicated Resource of 14.4 Mt at 0.68% Ni, 0.62% Cu, with 2.23 g/t
Pt+Pd+Au grade, and an Inferred Resource of 446.6 Mt at 0.31% Ni, 0.25% Cu, with
0.87 g/t Pt+Pd+Au grade at a 0.22% NiEq cut-off (see Wellgreen Platinum Ltd.
news release, June 18, 2012). The Yukon Mineral Exploration Program (YMEP) is a
funding program designed to support individuals and companies in their search of
mineral deposits by shouldering a portion of the risk capital required to
explore for mineral occurrences. The Arch Zone, located on the western portion
of Catalyst and adjacent to Wellgreen, may receive contribution funds in an
amount equal to 50% of eligible exploration expenses up to $50,000 dollars, the
maximum allotted by the Government of Yukon.


The Catalyst Project

The Catalyst Project is one of Duncastle's three PGM-Ni-Cu projects that, taken
together, total over 262 square kilometers (km) in the Kluane Ultramafic Belt, a
600km-long sequence of igneous and sedimentary rocks extending from northern
British Columbia through the Yukon and into Alaska. The Catalyst Project is
located 35 km northwest of Burwash Landing and only 15 km south of the Alaska
Highway along a maintained gravel road. The project covers 16,310 hectares, and
is positioned directly northwest of and adjacent to the Wellgreen deposit, with
portions of the project southeast and also adjacent to Wellgreen.


Several historic PGM-Ni-Cu showings are present at Catalyst. Within the Arch
Zone, the Teck showing is located on the western edge of the Wellgreen property
and consists of ultramafic rocks in fault contact with sedimentary rocks with
historic assays of 0.36 g/t PGM+Au, 581 ppm Ni and 709 ppm Cu from chip samples
over two meters. More recent results from the altered peridotite returned 0.535
ppmPGM+Au, 2,130 ppm Ni and 1,660 ppm Cu over 0.8 meters. Just over one
kilometer to the north, the Conwest showing is a 90 meter-long exposure of
oxidized, medium-grained gabbro with historic assays of 2,015 ppm Ni, 5,448 ppm
Cu and 154 ppb Au. Numerous historic magnetic, EM and VLF anomalies on the
property have also been identified that require follow-up prospecting and
sampling (from Yukon Geological Survey Minfile Nos. 115G-026, -033, and -088,
Assessment Report Nos. 094396, 093662, 017513, 092578, 092575, 092744, 094253,
094250, 094466, 094217, 017459). A previous YMEP grant was used to support
geophysical and geochemical orientation surveys over the Arch Zone with positive
results, and the new grant will be used to extend those surveys to untested
anomalies.


About Duncastle

of highly prospective claims on the Kluane belt in the southwest Yukon including
the flagship Catalyst project which adjoins Wellgreen Platinum's world-class
Wellgreen deposit on three sides. Duncastle also has the Black Lake/Drayton gold
project in northwest Ontario which features multiple high-grade gold showings
and historic bulk samples over 79 square kilometers of claims. All projects are
road accessible and offer Duncastle potential for 100% earn-in.
