Hidefield Gold plc 
 
                  Correction to Half-yearly Report 
 
Hidefield  Gold  plc   advises  that  the   following  replaces   the 
"Half-yearly  Report"  announcement  released  at  5.03  p.m.  on  30 
September 2009.   The updated  interim financial  statements in  this 
announcement reflect the capitalisation of debt that was announced on 
1 May 2009  which resulted  in the  issue of  59,000,000 1p  ordinary 
shares at par value in the interim period.  The revision has resulted 
in an increase  in share  capital and net  assets of  GBP590,000 and  a 
reduction in loans of GBP420,000  and a reduction in convertible  loans 
of GBP170,000.  In addition the loan interest that had been accrued  on 
the converted loans from 1 May 2009 to 30 June 2009 totalling GBP13,578 
has been  reversed reducing  the  loss for  the  period by  the  same 
amount. 
 
In addition the  group identified  an amendment to  reduce the  share 
based payment charge of GBP11,486, which  has reduced the loss for  the 
period and increased the net assets of the group by this amount. 
 
The full amended text appears below.

ABOUT HIDEFIELD 
 
Hidefield is  a gold  company with  a focus  on the  exploration  and 
development of gold projects in  Argentina including the Don  Nicolas 
gold project in Santa Cruz Province, Argentina. 
 
In Argentina Hidefield is actively  exploring the advanced stage  Don 
Nicolas gold  project  where  it  has  reported  a  mineral  resource 
estimate, prepared in  compliance with JORC  reporting standards,  of 
1,078,000 tonnes at 5.8  grammes per tonne  ("gpt") gold for  200,700 
ounces of gold in the Indicated Category and 1,075,000 tonnes at  4.6 
gpt for  158,400  ounces of  gold,  in the  Inferred  Category.  Both 
resource calculations were performed  using a 90  gpt high grade  cut 
off. 
 
In addition, the Company is exploring an extensive portfolio of  gold 
exploration licences in  the Patagonian provinces  of Santa Cruz  and 
Chubut, Argentina. 
 
The Company's other gold projects including the Cata Preta project in 
Brazil and  the Golden  Zone project  in Alaska  are the  subject  of 
negotiations  to  conclude  the  sales  of  these  projects.    These 
negotiations are  part of  Hidefield's  strategy to  consolidate  the 
Company's exploration activities in the southern Patagonian provinces 
of Argentina

Executive Chairman's statement 
 
I am pleased to report the progress your Company made during 2009  to 
date and provide  the unaudited  interim results for  the six  months 
ended 30  June 2009,  which have  neither been  audited nor  reviewed 
pursuant to guidelines issued by the Auditing Practices Board. 
 
During the  half  year under  review,  the Company  was  particularly 
active in its efforts to conclude  negotiations for the sale or  farm 
out of its  projects in Alaska  and Brazil.  I  am pleased to  report 
that during this  period an  agreement was  reached for  the sale  of 
Hidefield's interest in the South  Estelle gold project in Alaska  to 
Millrock Resources  Inc.  In  addition the  Company announced  on  19 
August 2009 that it  had entered into  a memorandum of  understanding 
with Fire River Gold Corp  for the potential disposal of  Hidefield's 
interest in  the  Golden Zone  gold  project also  in  Alaska.   Both 
disposals would provide  important funding to  assist the Company  to 
continue exploration on our  Argentina projects. Efforts to  conclude 
similar transactions for the  Cata Preta gold  project in Brazil  are 
continuing and we remain optimistic  that the Company should be  able 
to conclude a transaction on this  project during the second half  of 
the year. 
 
Despite encouraging recent strength in the gold price, the  difficult 
general economic environment and the limited capital market  interest 
in supporting junior  exploration companies  continues to  negatively 
affect the Company's ability  to fund its  ongoing activities at  the 
Don Nicolas gold project in Argentina. 
 
Encouragingly, other participants  in the gold  sector seem to  share 
our optimism  about  the  possibility  of  the  Don  Nicolas  project 
eventually becoming  a mine  so  we are  continuing to  evaluate  the 
possibility of third party involvement  with this project as a  means 
to ensure the project is able to progress forward. 
 
This process  has  inevitably  raised the  possibility  of  Hidefield 
potentially being acquired  and as shareholders  will have noted,  we 
recently announced that discussions were underway with a third  party 
which may lead  to an offer  being made for  Hidefield.  There is  of 
course no certainty that such an offer will be made and if made, will 
be successfully concluded  but shareholders  will be  advised as  and 
when there is further news to report. 
 
In the meantime, we will continue with our efforts to ensure that the 
value of  our portfolio  of gold  projects and  other investments  in 
listed securities is properly reflected in the market  capitalisation 
of the Company. 
 
I also wish to record our  gratitude to the lenders and  shareholders 
who provided Hidefield with the financial resources that enabled  the 
Company to continue with relatively uninterrupted activity during the 
latter part of 2008 and through the first half of 2009.  Moreover and 
equally important,  these  lenders which  included  Hamilton  Capital 
Partners Limited, a  company with  which I am  associated, agreed  to 
convert their  loans to  equity and  that agreement  was approved  by 
shareholders in late July 2009, substantially reducing the  Company's 
debt as reported in these interim financial statements. 
 
Finally, I  wish to  record  the important  contribution made  by  my 
fellow directors and our senior management in Argentina and Canada in 
our efforts  to continue  our  exploration and  business  development 
activities in Argentina,  Brazil and  the USA during  this period  of 
economic uncertainty.   Without this  support the  Company's  affairs 
would certainly have suffered greatly  and we may not have  attracted 
the potential takeover interest to which I have referred in this note 
and in our recent news release. 
 
Interim results and going concern 
 
The unaudited results  of our activities  and transactions  completed 
during the  period under  review and  ended 30  June 2009  reflect  a 
decrease in  the  level of  our  exploration activities  on  our  Don 
Nicolas gold project in southern Argentina.  The loss for the  period 
was GBP669,928 (2008: GBP423,214) which included a property impairment of 
GBP303,104 that was not applicable in the comparable period of 2008. 
 
In addition to  its ongoing working  capital requirements, the  Group 
must  secure  sufficient   funding  for   ongoing  mineral   property 
exploration and development.   However, management remains  confident 
that the existing  cash and investment  securities are sufficient  to 
meet current operating requirements, and that any significant project 
development costs can be  met from the raising  of new finance or  by 
attracting an industry partner.  However, at the balance sheet  date, 
these development plans were uncommitted.

Standards  (IFRS   and   IFRIC   interpretations)   issued   by   the 
International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) as adopted for use in 
the  EU.   The  condensed  interim  financial  information  has  been 
prepared  in  accordance  with  the  requirements  of   International 
Accounting Standard 34 ('Interim Financial Reporting') and with those 
accounting policies that are envisaged  to be effective for the  year 
ended 31 December 2009.  The  only changes to accounting policies  as 
set out in the Report and Accounts of Hidefield Gold Plc for the year 
ended 31 December 2008 relate to the adoption of the revision to  IAS 
1; this revision prohibits  the presentation of  items of income  and 
expenses (that is, "non-owner changes in equity") in the statement of 
changes in  equity, requiring  "non-owner changes  in equity"  to  be 
presented separately  from owner  changes in  equity.  All  non-owner 
changes in  equity will  be required  to be  shown in  a  performance 
statement.  The condensed interim  financial statements also  include 
the disclosure  requirements  of  IFRS  8,  which  is  effective  for 
accounting periods beginning 1 January 2009.  These revisions and new 
effective standards  have  been applied  throughout  these  condensed 
interim financial statements. 
 
Presentational currency 
 
The group's presentational currency is Great British Pounds ('GBP'). 
 
2. Financial reporting period 
 
The consolidated  condensed  interim financial  information  for  the 
period 1 January 2009 to 30 June 2009 is neither audited nor reviewed 
by the  auditors  of Hidefield  Gold  plc.   In the  opinion  of  the 
Directors the condensed interim financial information for the  period 
presents  fairly  the  financial  position,  and  the  results   from 
operations and  cash flows  for  the period  are in  conformity  with 
generally accepted accounting  principles consistently applied.   The 
financial statements incorporate comparative figures for the  interim 
period 1 January 2008 to 30 June 2008 and the audited financial  year 
to 31 December 2008. 
 
The financial information contained in  this interim report does  not 
constitute statutory  accounts  as  defined by  section  435  of  the 
Companies Act 2006. 
 
The comparatives for the full year ended 31 December 2008 are not the 
Group's full  statutory  accounts  for  that year.   A  copy  of  the 
statutory accounts for that year has been delivered to the  Registrar 
of  Companies.    The  auditors'   report  on   those  accounts   was 
unqualified; however it  did include references  to matters to  which 
the auditors drew  attention by  way of  emphasis without  qualifying 
their report.  The auditors' report did not contain a statement under 
section 237(2)-(3) of the Companies Act 1985. 
 
3. Loss per share 
 
The calculation of basic and diluted loss per share has been based on 
the loss  for  the period  of  GBP669,928  (2008 -  GBP423,214)  and  the 
weighted average number of  shares being 297,983,589 ordinary  shares 
issued for  the  period  ended  30 June  2009  (31  December  2008  - 
276,526,567 and  30  June  2008 -275,333,255).   Due  to  the  losses 
incurred during  the year  a  diluted loss  per  share has  not  been 
calculated as this would serve to reduce the basic loss per share. 
 
4. Taxation 
 
Due to  an  operating loss  for  the  period, no  taxation  has  been 
provided for in respect of the  current period.  There have not  been 
any  significant  taxation  movements  during  the  period  and   the 
remaining tax movements relate to  the group settling its prior  year 
tax assets and obligations.

8. Intangibles assets - mineral rights 
 
The value of mineral rights decreased during the period primarily due 
to foreign  exchange  revaluation  reducing  the  value  by  GBP893,238 
associated with the Company's Alaskan and Argentinean properties  and 
a property  impairment of  GBP303,104 on  the Golden  Zone property  in 
Alaska.  The  balance  of the  movement  in mineral  rights  reflects 
property expenditures of  GBP226,841 incurred in  Argentina during  the 
period. 
 
The  option  and  sale   arrangements  discussed  in  the   Executive 
Chairman's statement relate principally to option agreements  wherein 
the optionee can earn a stake of the Golden Zone mineral property and 
a stake of the Cata Preta mineral property.  Both of the options  are 
based  on   the  third   party  meeting   certain  minimum   spending 
commitments.  As at the interim  date there have been no  significant 
developments in this respect.

Trade and other  payables are  measured at amortised  cost and  their 
book value approximates to fair value at both balance sheet dates.

Loans 588,295 126,000     588,050 
 
 
Loans held on the balance sheet are advances payable on demand by the 
lender and bear  simple interest at  LIBOR +3% until  30 April  2009, 
thereafter at 14%.  Due to their short term nature, the fair value of 
the loans  equate to  their carrying  value.  During  the period  the 
Company  settled  GBP420,000  of   the  outstanding  debt  by   issuing 
42,000,000 ordinary common shares at 1p per share.  Subsequent to the 
end of the period, after the agreement of both parties, an additional 
portion of these loans and their accrued interest was settled via the 
issuance of ordinary common  shares of the Company  at a price of  1p 
per share. (Note 14) 
 
11. Convertible loans 
 
In 2008, the Company issued a convertible loan at LIBOR + 3% at a par 
value of GBP308,805. The  loan was either repayable  at this par  value 
plus accrued interest or was convertible on demand by the lender at a 
subscription price of 3p  per share. The  convertible loans were  not 
secured against any assets  of any Group company.   The value of  the 
liability  component  and   the  equity   conversion  component   was 
determined at the date the instrument was issued. 
 
The fair  value  of  the liability  component,  included  in  current 
borrowings, at inception was calculated using a market interest  rate 
of an equivalent instrument without a conversion option. The discount 
rate applied was 35%. The residual amount is as follows:

The fair value of the liability component of the convertible bond  at 
30 June 2009 and 31 December 2008 approximates to its carrying value. 
 
Subsequent to the  end of  the period,  after the  agreement of  both 
parties, a  portion  of these  convertible  loans and  their  accrued 
interest was settled via  the issuance of  ordinary common shares  of 
the Company at a price of 1p per share.   (Note 14) 
 
12. Related party transactions 
 
IAS 24, 'Related Party Transactions', requires the disclosure of  the 
details of  material transactions  between the  reporting entity  and 
related parties.  Details of related party transactions are: 
 
a) Hamilton Capital Partners Limited ("HCP") 
 
K P Judge  has a material  interest in HCP.   During the period,  the 
Company accrued consulting fees of GBP40,000 (2008 - GBP40,950) and  paid 
GBP12,000 (2008 - GBP12,000) to  HCP in respect of contributions  towards 
office rental, other office costs and reimbursed expenses. 
 
Furthermore, during the period HCP advanced GBP71,545 (2008 - GBP126,000) 
to the  Company for  working  capital under  loans due  31  December, 
2009.  The loans  bear interest at  LIBOR + 3%  until 30 April  2009, 
thereafter at 14%, which resulted  in accrued interest of GBP17,211  at 
30 June, 2009 (2008 - GBP593). 
 
b) SCM Consulting Corp. ("SCM") 
 
S C McGrath has a material  interest in SCM.  During the period,  the 
Company paid consulting fees of GBP7,336 (2008 - GBP6,952) to SCM.
