Taku Gold Corp. (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:TAK) is pleased to release results
from a seven hole, 1,033 metre core drilling program recently completed on the
100% owned, 536 claim (11,344 hectare) Sulphur property located in the Klondike
gold district of Yukon approximately 45 kilometres southeast of Dawson City. The
property straddles Sulphur Creek where there are currently at least four active
placer gold mining operations. The Sulphur Creek road provides good access to
the property.


Most of the drilling was done in the Lions area which is located in the
northeast corner of the property. The area shows two linear, roughly parallel,
northwest-trending anomalies. The first extends almost one kilometre and is up
to 400 metres (m) wide, and is the stronger of the two. The second anomaly lies
400m north of the first, and is over 600m long and up to 120m wide (Taku Press
Release - May 31, 2012). The most striking feature about the Lions area is that
the gold trends are coincident with very strong combined arsenic and silver
anomalies. Four of the six holes drilled in this area encountered anomalous gold
values with the best intersection found in hole SU12-01 where 0.31 grams per
tonne Au (gpt Au) was intersected over 2.0m section from 50.0m.


Better gold values were encountered in the single hole drilled on the Blues area
across the Sulphur Creek valley from Lions. Soil geochemical sampling over the
Blues area in 2011 defined a 900m long, northwest-trending, linear gold-in-soil
anomaly, and up to 1.0gpt Au was obtained from trench sampling (Taku Press
Release - May 31, 2012). Hole SU12-07 returned three gold intersections with up
to 0.72gpt Au over 1.0m from 72.0m.


The following table summarizes all the gold-bearing intervals encountered by the
drilling:

All analytical results referred to in this release were determined by Acme
Analytical Laboratories Ltd. in Vancouver, B.C. Acme is accredited under ISO
9001. Rock and drill core samples were prepared by crushing one kilogram to 80%
passing -10 mesh and then pulverizing a 250g subsample to 85% passing -200 mesh.
Each subsample was analyzed for gold by 30g fire assay, ICP-ES finish. Taku
follows an independently designed and monitored quality assurance/quality
control program involving the insertion of standards, blanks and duplicates into
the sampling stream.


Mark Fekete, PGeo., a director of Taku, is the designated qualified person as
