Dynasty Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:DYG)(FRANKFURT:D5G) ("Dynasty" or the "Company")
is pleased to announce that it has signed a binding property agreement with Mr.
Richard Billingsley of Surrey, British Columbia, to acquire a 100% interest in
the Silver Crown mineral tenures also known as the Strike Property (the
"Property").
The Property is situated in the well mineralized Stewart Complex, more than 700
mineral deposits and showings have been discovered in a large variety of rocks
and structures in this area including Barrick's legendary Eskay Creek deposit
where over 3 million ounces of high-grade gold and 160 million ounces of silver
were mined between 1994 to 2008. Within 8 kilometers of the Property, several
multi-million ounces gold-silver deposits such as Silbak-Premier, Big Missouri,
and Bronson Slope were mined. Recent discoveries in the area include Seabridge's
Red Mountain, a high-grade gold deposit, and KSM (Kerr-Sulphurets-Mitchell)
project, a bulk tonnage gold-copper porphyry deposit, as well as Pretivm's
Brucejack which is a high-grade gold and bulk tonnage gold-silver deposit. The
Property is 22 kilometers north of Stewart and accessible by the Long Lake road
located east of the Big Missouri mine.
The Strike Property was previously explored by Navarre Resources and White
Channel Resources between 1989 and 1995. The 'Baseline Vein/Breccia Zone' was
sampled in 1992 by Navarre Resources returning the following geochemical
analysis average from 16 rock chip channel samples:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Average Gold Silver % % %

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
0.5 7.58 2,123.6 0.31 10.02 13.8
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The 'Tetrahedrite Zone' was also sampled in 1992 by Navarre Resources giving the
following geochemical analysis average from 7 rock chip channel samples:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Average Gold Silver % % %
width (m) (g/t) (g/t) Copper Lead Zinc
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
0.2 12.96 8,883.2 0.82 7.34 14.55
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Additional surface exploration included a Crone DEEP-EM geophysical
electromagnetic survey which outlined a well defined, vertically oriented
conductive response along approximately 900 meters distance along the baseline
of the grid. This DEEP-EM conductive zone coincides with the axial plane of a
large scale anticline fold axis which plunges at a shallow angle to the north,
and also coincides with the surface trace of quartz-carbonate-sulphide
vein/breccia mineralization.
Previous results from geochemical analysis of split drill core from diamond
drilling carried out by Navarre Resources from 1990 to 1995 are summarized as

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The historic diamond drilling to date has been relatively shallow. The Company
anticipates further exploration that may include diamond drilling to test for
mineralization hosted in the Mt Dillworth Formation rhyolite at 80-250 meter
depth focusing on the DEEP-EM conductive zone as a principle target.
The Company is required to pay Mr. Billingsley staged payment of $149,000 cash
over a four-year period and issue 2.5 million fully-paid common shares over a
four-year period to acquire a 100% interest in the property subject to 2% NSR.
One percentage of NSR can be purchased for $1 million. The first payment of
$9,000 cash and issuing of 250,000 common shares are due 15 days after the
Exchange's approval. Subsequent payments will be made on the anniversary dates
as follows:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cash Shares
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
First anniversary $15,000 500,000
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Second anniversary $25,000 500,000
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Third anniversary $40,000 500,000
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fourth anniversary $60,000 750,000
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The acquisition is subject to the Company completing a satisfactory due
diligence on the Property and the Exchange's approval.
NOTE: Historic exploration results may not be compliant with the NI 43-101
standards and the Company has not independently verified these results.

supervised the field work on the Property for Navarre Resources between 1990 and
1995.
Property Geology
The Strike Property consists of widespread Au-Ag-(Cu-Pb-Zn) bearing
quartz-carbonate-sulphide vein/breccia mineralization traced along structural
lineaments, faults, fracture and fold hinge zones for a distance of 1.6
kilometers. The Property features mineralization that is hosted in the Mt
Dillworth Formation rhyolite felsic volcanic sequence. The rhyolite is a
prominent cliff forming unit and is capped by a pyritic lapilli tuff with
layered pyrite and intercalated limestone at the contact. The Mt Dillworth
Formation rhyolite occurs at 80-250 meter depth below the folded and faulted
overlying Salmon R Formation greywacke-siltstone sedimentary rocks. The entire
sequence is cut by a northwest trending, steeply dipping Eocene felsic to
intermediate composition dyke swarm. The Salmon R Formation sediments are folded
into a major anticline fold axis that traces polymetallic sulphide
mineralization. Four distinct types of sulphide are present on the Silver Crown
grid area: 1) Pyrite-galena-sphalerite-chalcopyrite in a gangue of
quartz-calcite-barite, sulphide characterized by clean, coarse habit,
crystalline quartz in vugs-cavities-dyke contacts. 2)
Pyrite-galena-sphalerite-chalcopyrite in a gangue of quartz-calcite-barite,
breccia zones characterized by lenses of coarse grained sphalerite-galena and
deformed siltstone fragment inclusions in gangue. 3)
Pyrite-galena-sphalerite-chalcopyrite-tetrahedrite-electrum-native silver,
characterized by higher precious metal values. 4) Pyritic lapilli tuff, contains
5-15% layered pyrite and occurs as a 1-5 meter wide exhalite horizon at the top
of the Mt Dillworth Formation rhyolite with intercalated crinoidal limestone at
the contact with overlying Salmon R Formation sediments.
