EXPLORATION CONFIRMS EXTENSIONS TO MINERALIZATION AT GREAT BASIN GOLD’S HOLLISTER PROPERTY

New underground and surface exploration programs planned

November 13, 2007, Vancouver, BC – Great Basin Gold Ltd. (“Great Basin” or the “Company”) (TSX: GBG; AMEX: GBN; JSE: GBGOLD) announces that having successfully completed its Phase II surface and underground drilling programs at the Hollister mine development project, the Company plans to extend exploration programs to confirm and expand on the good results achieved to date. 

Based on a review of all the assay results received to date, the focus of exploration and development drilling will be redirected as follows:

• A further 29,000 ft (8,800 m) of in-fill drilling from underground drilling is planned.  Target areas are mainly within the current delineated Gwenivere and Clementine vein structures, with the objective to both the increase the amount and confidence in the mineral resources. A May 2007 estimate indicated 1 million gold equivalent ounces in Measured and Indicated resources and an additional 930 thousand ounces in Inferred resources at Hollister.1
• An additional 58,000 ft (17,700 m) underground drilling program is also planned, designed to rapidly test the depth extension of the known resources and to bring any new resources to as high a confidence level as possible. Currently mineralization has only been outlined to an average depth of approximately 200 meters below the Ordovician unconformity.
