Plato Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:PGC) ("Plato" or the "Company") is pleased to
announce that its shareholders approved a resolution authorizing an amendment to
the Company's articles of amalgamation to consolidate its common shares (the
"Common Shares") on the basis of one (1) post-consolidation Common Share for
every ten (10) pre-consolidation Common Shares (the "Share Consolidation") at
its Special Meeting of Shareholders held on Wednesday, March 14, 2012 (the
"Meeting"), previously announced on February 14, 2012. An aggregate of
63,915,149 shares were represented at the Meeting either in person or by proxy,
representing approximately 44.51% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares,
with approximately 98% of the votes being cast in favour of approving the Share
Consolidation. 


The principal resasons for the Share Consolidation include management's belief
that the Company will benefit from: greater investor interest; improved trading
liquidity; and an ability to raise additional capital at a higher price per
share. The change in the number of issued and outstanding Common Shares that
will result from the Share Consolidation will cause no change in the capital
attributable to the Common Shares and will not materially affect any
shareholder's percentage ownership in the Company, even though such ownership
will be represented by a smaller number of Common Shares. As at the date hereof,
there are an aggregate of 143,591,655 Common Shares issued and outstanding. It
is expected that, upon completion of the Share Consolidation, there will be an
aggregate of approximately 14,359,165 Common Shares issued and outstanding. 


The completion of the Share Consolidation is subject to the approval of the TSX
Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"). Materials are being submitted to the Exchange
requesting such approval and a further announcement will be made once such
approval is obtained. Following receipt of approval from the Exchange, the
Company will file articles of amendment with the Director under the Business
Corporations Act (Ontario) in order to give effect to the Share Consolidation.
Once completed, a letter of transmittal will be sent by mail to shareholders
advising them that the Share Consolidation has taken effect and instructing them
to surrender the certificates evidencing their pre-consolidation Common Shares
for replacement certificates representing post-consolidation Common Shares. No
delivery of a new share certificate to a shareholder will be made until the
shareholder has surrendered his, her or its current issued share certificate.
