Access Wire
Redstar Gold Corp (TSX.V:RGC)
("Redstar" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has
completed the purchase of 100% of the Shumagin Property a core land
package to the Company's high-grade Unga project in south-west
Alaska.
This transaction has now secured 100% of
this royalty free land package which hosts a historic (non 43-101
compliant) resource estimate of 254,000 tonnes
(280,000 tons) grading 27.4 g/t (0.80 ounces per ton) gold and 127
g/t (3.7 opt) silver (SRK Consulting, 2000). The resource was based
on shallow drilling in the late 1980's that was within about 150m
(500 feet) of surface. A qualified person has not done sufficient
work to classify the historical estimate as current mineral
resources, the Company is not treating the historical estimate as
current mineral resources and the historical estimate should not be
relied upon.

three past producing mines from the Apollo-Sitka
high-grade gold vein system, which produced approximately 150,000
oz of gold in the early 20th century. The
mines produced from 2km of a structure which extends for at least
7km and remains open at depth.

CEO of Redstar Gold Corp. comments: "We are pleased to have
completed the purchase of the Shumagin Property. We look forward to

About Redstar
The Unga Project in
south-western Alaska consists of two properties acquired by Redstar
in 2011: the Unga-Popof and Shumagin properties. The
Project includes the high-grade Shumagin gold deposit, the
Centennial disseminated bulk-tonnage gold deposit and the
Apollo-Sitka high-grade gold vein system, which produced
approximately 150,000 oz of gold in the early
20th century.
Redstar currently holds 50%
of the Newman Todd Project in Red Lake Ontario. Newman Todd,
currently optioned to Confederation Minerals (TSX.V:CFM), is a new
high grade gold discovery in the prolific Red Lake Gold Camp.
Drilling to date has outlined numerous zones of high grade gold
mineralization along a 1.8Km corridor within the Newman Todd
Structure ("NTS"). The gold mineralization in the NTS remains open
along strike and at depth.
Redstar also owns 100% of 11
gold projects in Nevada and owns the Anglogold-Ashanti Database
("Database") for Nevada and surrounding states. The Database has
proven to be effective in developing quality projects in a variety
of known gold producing regions of Nevada including the Carlin
Trend, Bullfrog District and the Cortez Trend.
