Duncastle Gold Corp. (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE: DUN)(FRANKFURT: 5D3) reported today that it has signed a Communciations and Engagement Agreement with First Nations for 2010 exploration work on the eastern portion of its Porphyry Creek project located 20 kilometres northwest of Smithers in northwest British Columbia.

The agreement provides employment, training and business opportunities to First Nations and First Nations businesses in the eastern project area while granting Duncastle access for planned reconnaissance geology and drilling programs in 2010. The agreement compliments an earlier agreement signed for access to the western portion of the property and is a continuation of the positive relationship Duncastle has built with local communities starting with early consultation before work commenced in 2008.

Duncastle now has agreements in place with First Nations for all 2010 exploration target areas on the property.

The Porphyry Creek project presents a compelling porphyry copper-gold-molybdenum target with over 115 sq km of highly mineralized claims covering numerous high-grade gold, silver and polymetallic showings around a distinct 10 kilometer long magnetic high in stratigraphy known to host large porphyry deposits.

Three areas on the property have emerged as early targets where preliminary magnetic and electromagnetic anomalies co-incide with known high-grade mineralization. The Sultana prospect in particular is now considered 'high priority' and covers a 500 meter by 500 meter area of altered intrusive and mineralized copper and molybdenum surface rock samples. Drilling is planned for September.

Duncastle Gold Corp. is a Vancouver based gold exploration company with mineral claims covering or surrounding past producers in two historic BC districts. In Southeast BC Duncastle is targeting high-grade gold-silver-lead-zinc veins at the former Yankee-Dundee mine, 50km from the smelter at Trail, BC. In Northwest BC the Company's holdings cover a 10 km long magnetic anomaly, previous workings, and high-grade veins at its Porphyry Creek project. Duncastle has assembled contiguous claim blocks totaling more than 190 sq km in each of these two productive regions for gold and copper exploration.

As part of the Manex Resource Group, Duncastle benefits from shared expertise in corporate finance, public company administration, investor relations, and technical and geological services provided for eight public companies. Since its formation in 1997, the companies within the Manex Group have raised over C$250 million in exploration financing.

On behalf of the Board of Directors,
