SearchGold Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:RSG)(FRANKFURT:S1O) is pleased to
announce the acquisition of two news exploration permits for gold in Burkina
Faso in West Africa.


The two new permits, Dou and Taouremba, have respective surface areas of 241 km2
and 211 km2 for a total of 452 km2. They are located in the Sanmatenga and Seno
provinces, approximately 300 km north of Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso's capital,
and are directly accessible by road. See attached map:
http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/sg0625.pdf.


These two permits have been obtained though direct application with the Ministry
of Mines of Burkina Faso and SearchGold holds a 100% interest in both
properties.


The geology of Burkina Faso, which is very prospective for gold, is
characterized by the presence of birimian greenstone belts recognized for their
auriferous potential. The realization of this potential, specifically in Burkina
Faso, was materialized by the commencement of production on High River Gold
Mines Ltd's Taparko gold deposit in July 2007 (proven and probable reserves of
1.4 Moz Au: 15.4 Mt a 2.90 g/t Au).


Three additional recently outlined gold deposits include :

- Etruscan Resources Inc.'s Youga deposit (proven and probable reserves of 1.2
Moz Au : 13.3 Mt @ 2.74 g/t Au);


- Semafo Inc.'s Mana deposit (proven and probable reserves of 0.9 Moz Au : 9.8
Mt @ 2.93 g/t Au);


- Wega Mining Inc.'s Inata deposit (measured resources of 0.4 Moz Au : 5.2 Mt @
2.30 g/t Au and indicated resources of 1.0 Moz Au : 19.8 Mt @ 1.60 g/t Au).


Moreover, historically renowned sectors, such as the Poura mine area which
produced over 800,000 ounces of gold, confirm the country's potential.


SearchGold's two new permits are located on the regional structure transecting
the permits of the Inata project and show a similar geological context
highlighted by structural features such as faults and major shear zones.
Moreover, these two new permits are located on a volcano sedimentary sliver
between the Essakan deposit (probable reserves of 4.5 Moz Au : 46.4 Mt @ 1.78
g/t Au), Taparko and Kalsaka (proven and probable reserves of 0.3 Moz Au : 5.1
Mt @ 2.00 g/t Au, measured resources of 0.3 Moz Au : 6.2 Mt @ 1.70 g/t Au,
indicated resources of 0.3 Moz Au : 5.9 Mt @ 1.5 g/t Au).


This acquisition confirms SearchGold's intention to increase its presence in
West Africa and will strengthen the development of exploration activities in
parallel with the advancement of the Bakoudou gold project in Gabon in
partnership with Managem.
