Dawson Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:DYU) ("Dawson Gold") provides an update on the
ongoing analysis of the results from soil geochemical surveys undertaken during
the 2010 summer work program at the Toro Property in the Dawson Range of the
White Gold District, central Yukon Territory. 


Highlights include:



--  Seven soil zones covered by six grids and two contour lines of
    geochemical soil grid surveys (total 549 samples) expanding on, and
    infilling between, historic geochemical sampling 
--  Two newly identified large gold-in-soils anomalous zones defined by
    values ranging from 25 ppb up to 540 ppb Au. 



The geochemical surveys covered four epithermal and/or structurally related
Au-mineralization targets comprising three grids and two "contour soil lines"
programs. Induced polarization geophysical programs were also conducted on the
three soil sampling grids. A total of 549 soil samples were collected from these
nine zones.


The geochemical sampling program delineated two new gold targets in Zones 4 and
6 (see map on Company website). Samples at Zone 6 were collected at 50 m centres
and include 11 results over 100 ppb Au (to a maximum value of 540 ppb Au)
defining a gold-in-soil anomaly (greater than 100 ppb Au of approximately 600 m
by 300 m). Zone 4 samples were collected at 50 m intervals on lines spaced at
100 m and defined a approximately 150 m by 200 m gold-in-soil anomaly (less than
25 ppb Au) clustered at the extreme northwest corner of the Zone 4. Anomalies in
both zones remain open both to the west and to the north and are interpreted to
correlate with mapped contacts of the Coffee Creek Granite and gold
intersections from drilling (See Company news release dated December 17, 2010).


Paul. D. Gray, Dawson Gold CEO, commented: "Targets defined by the successful
2010 soil geochemical program on the Toro Project will be an early and prime
work focus in 2011. The Toro Project continues to produce impressive results and
the management looks forward to getting back on the ground as early as possible
in spring 2011."


The 2010 Toro Project work program was conducted under the supervision of Dawson
Gold President Michael Collins, P.Geo., a qualified person under NI 43-101, who
has read and approved the content of this news release.
