High Desert Gold Corporation ("HDG" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:HDG)(OTCQX:HDGCF) reports that it has released its unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and the related management's discussion and analysis of financial position and results of operations ("MD&A").

As at September 30, 2011, the Company had operating working capital of approximately US$1.0 million. The Company also owns approximately 10.7 million shares of Highvista Gold Inc. ("HVG") with a current quoted value of approximately Cdn. $6.7 million. These shares are subject to a time-released regulatory escrow agreement and a contractual lock-up undertaking entered into by the Company.

The Company will continue follow up of the ZTEM geophysical survey at Gold Springs and plans on completing an NI 43-101 Technical Report during the first quarter of 2012. Plans for additional drilling will be completed, with the start date dependent on the timing of completion of permitting. At San Antonio surface sampling and mapping will continue in preparation for further drilling. Depending on market or other conditions, and subject to compliance with the regulatory escrow agreement and contractual lock-up undertaking entered into by HDG, the Company may raise additional funds through the sale of some of its shares of HVG to allow for expanded exploration work at Gold Springs in 2012.

ABOUT HIGH DESERT GOLD

The Company is a mineral exploration company that acquires and explores mineral properties, primarily gold, copper and silver, in North America. The major properties held by HDG are the Gold Springs gold project situated along the border between Utah and Nevada and the San Antonio project in Sonora, Mexico. The Company also has a 34.8% interest in the Canasta Dorada property in Sonora, Mexico, through its equity interest in Highvista Gold Inc. There has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource at Gold Springs and at San Antonio and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the targets at these two projects being delineated as a mineral resource.
