About AndeanGold Ltd:

AndeanGold Ltd. is engaged in the acquisition, exploration and potential
development of primarily precious metals properties, principally in Peru and
Ecuador. The focus of the Company's exploration activities is presently in
advancing its Urumalqui Project, as well as pursuing mineral property
acquisitions, in Peru. In Ecuador, the Company's activities have been limited to
administrative and legal matters due to the Mining Mandate issued by the Ecuador
Constituent Assembly on April 18, 2008. In November 2009, President Correa
signed the Mining Regulations into law pursuant to the requirements of the new
Mines Law, which was passed in January 2009. This was the final legal precursor
to the re-initiation of exploration and mining development in Ecuador. The
Company has been issued new mining titles under the new Mines law to its three
key Ecuadorian projects and has filed the requisite documents with the Ministry
of Non-Renewable Natural Resources and Ministry of Environment in support of the
Company's request to renew exploration programs on its key projects in Ecuador.
The Company is actively working with government officials to achieve this end.
