Duncastle Gold Corp. (TSX VENTUER:DUN)(FRANKFURT:5D3) reported today that it has
commenced drilling on its Porphyry Creek project located 20 kilometers northwest
of Smithers, in northwest British Columbia.


Three holes totaling 1,200 metres are planned in Duncastle's first drill program
on the property. The holes target ground geochemical sampling and coincident
geophysical anomalies located in the area of the historic Sultana prospect. One
hole targets anomalous copper and molybdenum geochemical results reported
September 14, 2010 while a second cuts underneath the historic drill holes and
trenches and also under the anomalous copper and molybdenum in intrusive rock
identified in historic results.


Reconnaissance geology work is also planned, with a particular focus on
investigating and developing a "pipeline" of new targets identified in the
recent airborne geophysical results.


The Porphyry Creek project covers over 130 sq km of mineral claims with historic
workings and numerous high-grade gold, silver and polymetallic showings around a
distinct 10 kilometer long magnetic high with coincident copper, lead and zinc
geochemical anomalies shown in government and Duncastle data. Data compilation
and modeling by Duncastle has demonstrated mineral zonation on the property
consistent with porphyry style deposits. There are over 20 porphyry discoveries
in the region, including Berg, Bell, Huckleberry, Mt Milligan, and Galore Creek
among others, plus other deposit types (eg Eskay Creek).


Duncastle Gold Corp. is a Vancouver based gold exploration company with mineral
claims covering or surrounding past producing mines in two historic BC
districts. Duncastle also holds the Yankee-Dundee mine in Southeast BC with a
focus on high-grade gold-silver-lead-zinc veins just 50 km from the smelter at
Trail, BC. Duncastle has assembled contiguous claim blocks totaling more than
190 sq km in two productive regions.


As part of the Manex Resource Group, Duncastle benefits from shared expertise in
corporate finance, public company administration, investor relations, and the
technical and geological services provided for the eight public companies active
in North America. Since its formation in 1997, the Manex Group companies have
raised over C$250 million in exploration financing.

technical results in this release.
