TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Feb. 22, 2011) - Sage Gold Inc. (News - Market indicator) announces that it has completed the second instalment for a property acquisition on the Clavos Mine under the terms of the Option Agreement between Sage Gold Inc. and St Andrew Goldfields Ltd. dated February 8, 2011 (the 'Option Agreement') by having incurred $500,000 of Exploration Expenditures, having paid the sum of $30,000 as a cash payment and, subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval, by issuing 147,783 common shares of the Company at $0.203 as settlement of debt of $30,000 due under the Option Agreement. Sage has the right to earn a 60% interest in the Clavos Mine under a four instalment property acquisition pursuant to the Option Agreement.

Sage has completed six drill holes of the 12 drill hole program in the first phase of drilling on the western extension at the Clavos mine in Timmins, Ontario. The drilling is designed to upgrade inferred ounces into the indicated category within the footwall zone (FW) and to add ounces into the resource within the hanging wall (HW) and FW zones. Hole CL-11-01 assayed 28.89 g/t Au (15.39 g/t cut to 60 g/t) over 1.3 metres and was outside of the inferred resource block identified in the St Andrew Goldfields Ltd.(TSX:SAS) resource of October 2006. Refer to www.sasgoldmines.com.

The present drilling has intersected several low grade gold mineralized intercepts within porphyries. The porphyries occur between the HW and FW zones and the gold mineralization within the porphyries was excluded from the resource calculation in the SAS compliant resource of October 2006.

Upon completion of the western drilling, the drill program will shift to the eastern extension of the mineralized horizon where historic drilling has identified high grade gold mineralization outside of the volume encompassed by the 2006 resource. Historic operators on the property have drilled an approximate total of 150,000 metres of surface and 42,000 metres of underground drilling.

The Clavos mine is located north of the Pipestone Fault which marks the contact between the Porcupine sedimentary rocks to the south and volcanic rocks to the north. The deposit is localized in east-west to east-northeast trending high strain zones within ultramafic rocks defined by lenses of sericite-carbonate with some fuchsite alteration and hosts several small porphyry intrusive bodies in a 50-70m wide zone, termed the "DL Zone". This lies from 10-50m north of the sedimentary-volcanic contact. There are four mineralized zones at Clavos termed the Hangingwall, Footwall, Contact and Porphyry Zones. Gold mineralization occurs in two styles of quartz veins: a) early grey quartz veins, and b) quartz extension veins, sigmoidal extension vein arrays, and associated shear veins, which form veining networks. The latter phase of veining is
geometrically, temporally and texturally compatible with formation during the main stages of gold mineralization in the central Timmins camp.
