Adventure Gold Inc. (TSX VENTURE:AGE) (the "Company") announced today the
signing of an agreement for the acquisition of a 100% interest in 353 claims for
19,539 hectares (195 km2) located along the Detour Gold Trend (the "DGT") in
Quebec. The seven new claim blocks acquired, contiguous with the Company's
Detour properties, encompass three proven gold structures related with the DTG
(see figures 1), namely the Sunday Lake, Massicotte and Lower Detour-Grasset
deformation zones. The Company now holds a total of 714 mining claims covering a
surface 386 Km2 along 80 km strike length of prospective gold structures. The
DGT hosts the Detour Lake gold deposit with 43-101 proven and probable reserves
of 15.6M ounces of gold (from a global measured and indicated resources of 23.3M
ounces and inferred resources of 5.8M ounces : see Detour Gold Corporation,
Press release dated January 25, 2012). A detailed geological compilation is in
progress for the new claim blocks and geophysical surveys on selected areas are
scheduled for the end of 2012. Since the beginning of the year, the Company has
been quite active on its Detour Gold Trend's Casgrain, Martigny and Manthet
properties. Airborne and ground geophysical surveys have been performed and
results will be released soon.


"With this acquisition, Adventure Gold definitively becomes a major claim holder
with significant up-side gold exploration potential, both at its Detour Gold
Trend properties and on the newly acquired lands. The new properties already
contain high quality gold exploration targets and the Company intends to better
define and drill test it in the near future. While the Company continues to
focus in 2012 on the exploration of the Pascalis gold project, this new
acquisition assures a pipeline of exploration opportunities at different
exploration stages, all in the Abitibi area" stated Marco Gagnon, President and
CEO of Adventure Gold Inc.


The new properties, located 130 kilometres North of La Sarre, Quebec, are mainly
accessible by gravel and winter forestry road. Very limited exploration work has
been performed by the past over these deformation zones and bedrock exposures
are limited. However, the Company's geological compilation of historical work
already outlined the presence of significant gold anomalies in glacial sediments
that were intersected by reverse circulation drilling (see figures 1) which
returned positives gold results grading from 0.5 g/t Au to 4.9 g/t Au. For more
