HVG Harvest Gold Corp

Harvest Gold Corporation (TSX VENTURE: HVG) (the "Company") is pleased to announce that it's Phase II drilling program at its 100% owned Rosebud Mine project in northwest Nevada, USA, begun in March, will be completed by this weekend. More than 14,000 feet (4,270 metres) have been drilled in 21 reverse circulation holes, meeting the Company's footage goals for the program. Final assays are expected within approximately two weeks and will be released as soon as analysis is complete.

Greg Hill, President of Harvest Gold Corp. (US), states: "Drilling has focused on four key target areas. They are the Valley, Southern Extension, Northeast, and Far East targets, with the majority of drilling taking place in the Valley and Southern Extension areas. Despite several weather delays during this very wet spring, we have achieved our footage goals within budget. We look forward to announcing results as soon as possible."

About Rosebud

The Rosebud property is an advanced exploration project consisting of 54 unpatented mining claims centered on the former Rosebud underground mine, which produced nearly 400,000 oz gold and 2,300,000 oz silver between 1997 and 2000. The underground operation mined three high-grade ore zones, with an average production grade of 0.416 oz Au/t (14.2 g/tonne), 2.42 oz Ag/t (83 g/tonne). Due to falling gold prices, the cut-off grade was increased from 0.15 oz Au/t (5.1 g/tonne) to 0.18 oz Au/ton (6.2 g/tonne) over the life of the mine, and mineralized material below the cutoff was not mined. An in-place, non-43-101-compliant Measured and Indicated Global resource of 242,000 oz Au, 2,130,000 oz Ag (6.81 million t @ 0.036 oz Au/t, 0.31 oz Ag/t), was calculated by Hecla at the close of mining in 2000. (This historical resource estimate was made by a source believed to be reliable, however the Company has not yet independently verified the estimate according to CIM standards and thus this historical estimate should not be relied upon.)

The Rosebud deposit is a high-grade low-sulfidation volcanic-hosted precious metals deposit, similar in origin, geologic setting, and mineralization style to other low-sulfidation gold deposits in northern Nevada, including the high-grade multi-million-ounce Sleeper and Midas deposits. The property is located in a highly mineralized portion of the Lovelock-Austin Mineral Belt, about 5 miles south of Allied Nevada's Hycroft mine.

The company has acquired a 100% interest in the property, subject to a net smelter royalty.
