U.S. NEWS WIRE SERVICES


Hinterland Metals Inc. (TSX VENTURE:HMI) ("Hinterland") is pleased to announce
the execution of an Arrangement Agreement with Stakeholder Gold Corp.
("Stakeholder"), it's wholly-owned subsidiary, pursuant to which certain Yukon
gold assets of Hinterland will be transferred to Stakeholder in consideration
for the issuance of common shares of Stakeholder equal to 25% of the issued and
outstanding common shares of Hinterland immediately prior to the closing of the
transaction, for a total of approximately 20 million shares. As previously
announced by Hinterland (see press release dated February 1, 2011), Hinterland
intends to keep 7.5% of the shares received from Stakeholder and distribute the
balance to its shareholders.


The transactions contemplated by the agreement will be carried out as a plan of

exchanged for 0.25 of a new common share of Hinterland and 0.23125 of a
Stakeholder common share. Furthermore, the Arrangement contemplates that holders
of outstanding warrants and options shall be entitled to receive new Hinterland
common shares and Stakeholder common shares upon the exercise thereof in
accordance with the aforementioned ratios (for more information on the terms and
conditions of the exercise of the convertible securities of Hinterland under the
Arrangement, see the Plan of Arrangement attached to the Arrangement Agreement
which is being filed at www.sedar.com concurrently with the dissemination of
this press release). Following the closing of the Arrangement, Hinterland will
have approximately 20 million common shares issued and outstanding.


Hinterland expects to hold its annual and special meeting of shareholders (the
"Meeting") to approve the Arrangement by the end of May 2011. In this regard,
Hinterland will be mailing to its shareholders and convertible security holders
(the "Securityholders") an information circular (the "Circular") containing
information on the Arrangement and Stakeholder. Hinterland expects the Circular
to be sent out to its Securityholders within a delay of approximately 30 days.


The closing of the Arrangement is subject to number of conditions, including (i)
the Arrangement being approved by the Superior Court of Quebec and by the
shareholders of Hinterland by a majority of 66 2/3% of the votes cast at the
Meeting, (ii) holders of not more than 2% of the issued and outstanding common
shares of Hinterland having exercised their right of dissent in respect of the
Arrangement, (iii) the TSX Venture Exchange having conditionally approved the
listing of the shares of Stakeholder and the new common shares of Hinterland,
(iv) the successful completion by Stakeholder of a private placement for minimum
gross proceeds of $825,000, (v) the execution of a definitive agreement between
Hinterland and Stakeholder for the transfer of the Yukon gold assets and (vi)
other conditions customary to this type of transaction.
