Duncastle Gold Corp. ("Duncastle" or the "Company") (TSX
VENTURE:DUN)(FRANKFURT:5D3) announced today that it plans to raise up to
$500,000 in a non-brokered private placement to fund the acquisition and
exploration of the Company's highly prospective PGM-Ni-Cu projects in the Kluane
Ultramafic Belt in the southwest Yukon including its flagship Catalyst project
which adjoins Wellgreen Platinum's Wellgreen project on three sides. The Company
also announced that it has dropped the Porphyry Creek project in order to focus
the majority of its corporate and exploration effort on the Yukon assets. 


The Company plans to issue up to 10,000,000 units at a price of $0.05 per unit.
Each unit will consist of one common share and one-half share purchase warrant,
with each whole share purchase warrant exercisable to purchase one additional
common share at an exercise price of $0.075 per share for a period of three
years, subject to an acceleration provision whereby, if at any time after 4
months from the date of issue of the warrants the closing market price of the
Company's common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange is greater than $0.15 per
share for 10 consecutive trading days, the Company may, within a further 5 days,
give notice and accelerate the expiry date of the warrants, in which event the
warrants will expire on the 30th day after the date on which such notice is
given. 


Proceeds from the placement will fund priority exploration on the Company's
projects and will also be used for working capital. Finder's fees may be payable
with respect to the private placement. The private placement and finder's fees
are subject to regulatory approval.  


New materials are available on the Company's website including a summary of the
Yukon projects at

Exploration Update

The Company's Yukon PGM-Ni-Cu assets include the Catalyst, Ultra and Spy
projects which together total over 262 square kilometers in the Kluane
Ultramafic Belt, a 600km-long sequence of igneous and sedimentary rocks
extending from northern British Columbia through the Yukon and into Alaska.
Mineralization within the Kluane belt occurs at the contact between ultramafic
and sedimentary rocks, with the most notable being the Wellgreen deposit which
adjoins Duncastle's Catalyst project. The Wellgreen deposit is presently under
advanced assessment by Wellgreen Platinum Ltd. where an updated PEA study is now
in progress to follow a previously reported Indicated Resource of 14.4 Mt at
0.68% Ni, 0.62% Cu, with 2.23 g/t Pt+Pd+Au grade, and an Inferred Resource of
446.6 Mt at 0.31% Ni, 0.25% Cu, with 0.87 g/t Pt+Pd+Au grade at a 0.22% NiEq
cut-off (see Wellgreen Platinum Ltd. news release, June 18, 2012). 


A first phase exploration program has been developed to identify and prioritize
targets for potential drilling at all three projects, with the intent to drill
by the end of the 2014 season:


Catalyst - Planned work for the Catalyst project includes expanded geochemical,
geobotanical, and geophysical orientation surveys on the Arch claims where
similar surveys successfully identified a PGM-Ni-Cu showing in 2013. Trenching
is planned to expose the subsurface extent of this showing along with other
anomalies identified in the 2013 program.


Ultra - A 2013 geophysics review at Ultra extended the Frohberg PGM-Ni-Cu
showing beneath cover. Frohberg as well as numerous new showings will be
prioritized for trenching in 2014.


Spy - Prospecting, mapping and trenching will focus on extending mineralization
at the Spy Sill, which has continuous PGM-Ni-Cu mineralization over 950 meters
based on historical data (Bell, C., 1996. Report on 1995 geological and
geochemical surveys on the Klu property. Yukon Dept. of Energy, Mines and
Resources, Assessment Report #093371, 244p). 


Crews have already visited the Catalyst, Spy and Ultra projects in 2014 and
identified areas for further exploration based on prospecting and surface
sampling, which will also be investigated. 


Other Projects

The Company announced today that it has terminated the agreement for the
Porphyry Creek project in northwest BC and will return the claims to the
optionors accordingly in order to focus resources on its Yukon assets. Optionors
of the Porphyry Creek project include Michael Rowley, President and director,
along with Crucible Resources Limited, a company owned by past director Douglas
Warkentin, and a third party.

the flagship Catalyst project which adjoins Wellgreen Platinum's world-class
Wellgreen deposit on three sides. Duncastle also has the Black Lake/Drayton gold
