2011 Drilling Completed at Miranda Gold′s Angel Wing Project

Miranda Gold Corp. ('Miranda?) (TSX-V: MAD) is pleased to
announce that Ramelius Resources Ltd. ('Ramelius?) (ASX:RMS), our
funding partner at Angel Wing, has completed a 15-hole drill program and
received all analyses. Angel Wing is a sediment-hosted and epithermal
vein gold project in northeast Elko County, Nevada. Ramelius drilled a
total of 6,308 ft (1,922.7 m) in 12 reverse circulation holes for 5,520
ft (1,682.5 m) and three core holes for 788 ft (240.2 m).

Miranda is encouraged that all 2011 drill holes intersected gold and/or
silver mineralization. Maximum gold values were 1 ft (0.3 m) of 0.045 oz
Au/ton in AW11-C01 and maximum silver values were 5 ft (1.5 m) of 4.29
oz Ag/ton (147 g Ag/t) in hole AW11-C03. The results of the 2011
drilling more than doubled the strike length and increased the depth
extent of known gold mineralization in the Da Vinci vein. Seven drill
intercepts now indicate the Da Vinci vein's strike length is about 575
ft (175 m) and vertical extent from surface is about 330 ft (100 m).

Angel Wing currently has seven gold target areas identified by surface
mapping of quartz-calcite veins with distinctive 'angel wing' textures,
rock chip and soil geochemistry, and geophysics. Ramelius' 2011 drill
program tested five of the target areas. All the holes, except for one
vertical hole, were angled across the dominantly northerly trend of
structures and veins. The 2011 drilling continued to test the Da Vinci
vein (see News Release dated November 29, 2010) with five holes and
provided first-ever drill tests of the three additional outcropping
veins: the Botticelli which is a northwestward splay of the Da Vinci
vein, the Rossetti, and the Raphael.

Significant drill intersections, defined as those with gold grades of
0.01 oz Au/ton (0.343 g Au/t) or higher over intercepts of 5 ft (1.5 m)
or longer, or silver grades of 0.30 oz Ag/ton (10.29 g Ag/t) or higher,
are summarized in the following table.

Epithermal veins similar to those at Angel Wing have a discrete
elevation interval that contains the majority of high-grade
mineralization. The geochemistry, textures, and morphologies observed in
the recent drilling suggest this bonanza zone, if present, may be deeper
in the system.

Quality Assurance / Quality Control procedures used by Ramelius for
their drill program includes collection of duplicate samples and
insertion of blanks and analytical standards into the sample sequence.
Control samples are about 10 percent of each batch of samples. All
samples were analyzed by ALS Minerals on a 50 g charge and an AAS finish.

Project Details

The Angel Wing project consists of 87 unpatented lode claims covering
2.8 sq mi (7.3 sq km.) in northeast Elko County, Nevada. Project area
stratigraphy from youngest to oldest is a) Tertiary felsic volcanic
units, b) Tertiary conglomerate, and c) limestone, probably late
Paleozoic or Triassic in age. Past work consisted of geologic mapping,
soil and rock sampling, and a gravity survey. Ramelius completed
IP/Resistivity, ground magnetic, and soil geochemical surveys. Gold
values above 100 g Au/t in rock chips occur in an area 6,700 ft (2,042
m) long and up to 3,000 ft (914 m) wide. Rock-chip samples up to 2.7 oz
Au/t (92.5 g Au/t) occur in steeply dipping, quartz-calcite-adularia
veins within the limestone and up to 0.044 oz Au/t (1.507 g Au/t) in
disseminations and quartz-calcite veinlet stockworks in altered
limestone and Tertiary conglomerate. Historic shallow vertical drilling
targeted disseminated mineralization and returned up to 0.047 oz Au/t
over 50 ft (1.609 g Au/t over 15.2 m) in drill hole DC-7.

All data, disclosed in this press release, including sampling,
analytical and test data, have been reviewed and verified by Vice
President of Exploration Joseph Hebert, C.P.G., B.Sc. Geology and
Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101.
