High Desert Gold Corporation  ("HDG" or the "Company") (TSX
VENTURE:HDG)(OTCQX:HDGCF) is pleased to report that The Company and its partner
Pilot Gold Inc. ("Pilot"), have approved an aggressive exploration program at
Gold Springs for this year that will comprise approximately 100 reverse
circulation drill holes with a focus on expanding the resource at the Jumbo
"trend" and adding a new resource at Grey Eagle.


This aggressive program increases the Company's interest in the property to 82%
because Pilot has elected not to contribute financially to this program due to
other priorities in their portfolio of properties.


Ralph Fitch, President and CEO of the Company, stated "We are very excited to
move forward with an aggressive exploration program in 2013 with drilling
expected to start in April and are pleased to have increased our ownership in
Gold Springs, thereby providing our shareholders with increased exposure to the
continuing success we are anticipating at the project." 


The Company plans to announce the remaining drill results from the 2012 program
within a few days, pending final analysis, and an updated resource on the Gold
Springs Project based on the 2012 drilling results by the end of the 1st
quarter, 2013.
