Star Gold Corp. ("Star Gold" or the "Company") (OTCBB: SRGZ) is pleased to provide investors with an updated outline of the drill program at Star Gold's key property Longstreet in Nye County, Nevada.

On June 18 a drill rig arrived at Longstreet and began the next phase of the project's drilling program. It is anticipated that the rig will be employed for approximately 6 weeks. The current phase of the Company's drill program is scheduled to complete 25 reverse circulation holes and 4 core holes of varying depths up to 500 feet.

David Segelov, President of Star Gold, commented, "What we hope to achieve from this program is an understanding of the depth of the oxidized zone at Main. Further, the drilling at North will enable Star Gold to confirm whether the structure at North parallels the structure at Main. We expect the results to be announced in August 2012."

About Longstreet Project

The Longstreet Project is located in northern Nye County approximately 170 miles north-northwest of Las Vegas, Nevada and 25 miles southeast of the Round Mountain mine. The property consists of 75 contiguous lode mining claims covering 1,500 acres. The project is within the Monitor Range portion of the Humbolt-Toiyabe National Forest.

The project encompasses a large area of fractured Tertiary volcanic tuff hosting high grade gold and silver values within fractures and quartz veins. There have been nine target zones delineated on the property.

Longstreet was discovered in the early 1900s, but had limited development work until 1929. In the 1980s at least 492 RC holes had been drilled most within the Main resource area. These RC holes were to a maximum depth of 150 feet.

In late 2011, Star Gold Corp. drilled 16 holes to an average depth of 300 feet. These results were incorporated into a comprehensive Technical Report released 23 April 2012. The author of the Report concludes "There is a strong possibility of discovering multiple economic, open pitable, heap leachable, deposits grading +0.04 oz/ton (+1.4 g/t) gold with significant silver credits at Longstreet."

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING MINERAL RESOURCES

This Press Release and other information that may be released by the Company in the future uses the terms "resources," "measured resources," "indicated resources" and "inferred resources". United States investors are advised that, while such terms are recognized and required by Canadian securities laws, the SEC does not recognize them. Under United States standards, mineralization may not be classified as a "reserve" unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. United States investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of measured or indicated resources will ever be converted into reserves. Inferred resources are in addition to measured and indicated resources. Further, inferred resources have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to whether they can be mined legally or economically. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of the inferred resources will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Therefore, United States investors are also cautioned not to assume that all or any part of the inferred resources exist, or that they can be mined legally or economically. National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101") is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators, which established standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects. Unless otherwise indicated, all resource estimates contained in this Press Release and in press releases by the Company in the future, have been or will be prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Classification System. The requirements of NI 43-101 are not the same as those of the SEC. The terms "mineral reserve," "proven mineral reserve" and "probable mineral reserve" are Canadian mining terms as defined in accordance with Canadian National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101") and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (the "CIM") - CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the CIM Council, as amended. These definitions differ from the definitions in the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Industry Guide 7 under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). Under SEC Industry Guide 7 standards, a "final" or "bankable" feasibility study is required to report reserves, the three-year historical average price is used in any reserve or cash flow analysis to designate reserves and the primary environmental analysis or report must be filed with the appropriate governmental authority.

In addition, the terms "mineral resource," "measured mineral resource," "indicated mineral resource" and "inferred mineral resource" are defined in and required to be disclosed by NI 43-101; however, these terms are not defined terms under SEC Industry Guide 7 and are normally not permitted to be used in reports and registration statements filed with the SEC. Investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of a mineral deposit in these categories will ever be converted into reserves. "Inferred mineral resources" have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies, except in rare cases. Investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource exists or is economically or legally mineable. Disclosure of "contained ounces" in a resource is permitted disclosure under Canadian regulations; however, the SEC normally only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute "reserves" by SEC Industry Guide 7 standards as in place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures.

Subject to the forgoing Cautionary Statement, the following are the definitions of the terms used in the Longstreet NI 43-101 Report:

NI 43-101 Definitions:

Indicated mineral          The term "indicated mineral resource" refers to
 resource                  that part of a mineral resource for which
                           quantity, grade or quality, densities, shape and
                           physical characteristics  can be established with
                           a level of confidence sufficient to allow the
                           appropriate application of technical and economic
                           parameters, to support mine planning and
                           evaluation of the economic viability of the
                           deposit. The estimate is based on detailed and
                           reliable exploration and testing information
                           gathered through appropriate techniques from
                           locations such as outcrops, trenches, pits,
                           workings and drill holes that are spaced closely
                           enough for geological and grade continuity to be
                           reasonably assumed.

Inferred mineral resource  The term "inferred mineral resource" refers to
                           that part of a mineral resource for which
                           quantity and grade or quality can be estimated on
                           the basis of geological evidence and limited
                           sampling and reasonably assumed, but not
                           verified, geological and grade continuity. The
                           estimate is based on limited information and
                           sampling gathered through appropriate techniques
                           from locations such as outcrops, trenches, pits,
                           workings and drill holes.

Measured mineral resource  The term "measured mineral resource" refers to
                           that part of a mineral resource for which
                           quantity, grade orquality, densities, shape and
                           physical characteristics are so well established
                           that they can be estimated withconfidence
                           sufficient to allow the appropriateapplication of
                           technical and economic parameters tosupport
                           production planning and evaluation of the
                           economic viability of the deposit. The estimate
                           is based on detailed and reliable exploration,
                           sampling and testing information gathered through
                           appropriate techniques from locations such as
                           outcrops, trenches pits, workings and drill holes
                           that are spaced closely enough to confirm both
                           geological and grade continuity.
