Mistango Drills 12 Metres of 2.687 g/t Gold at Omega Project

Kirkland Lake, Ontario, March 2, 2012: Mistango River Resources Inc. (?Mistango? or the ?Company?) (MIS: CNSX) (GLRAF: OTC) today announced the latest drill results from its 100%-owned Omega Gold Mine property in Ontario?s Larder Lake area.

Drilling Highlights

• OM-12-67:  1.787 g/t gold over 16 metres (including 2 metres of 5.84 g/t gold)
• OM-12-69:  2.687 g/t gold over 12 metres (including 8 metres of 3.706 g/t gold)
• OM-12-70:  0.997 g/t gold over 54 metres (including 10 metres of 2.421 g/t gold: Open Pit)

Omega Property 2011-12 Diamond Drilling - Significant Composites Table No. 1b (Feb.29, 2012)

Note: All holes are uncut and over core length; core length is estimated 50-90% of true width; 1 g/t Au multiplied by 0.0291666 equals troy ounces per short ton (to convert from metres to feet multiply by 3.2808).

Robert J. Kasner, President and CEO, commented, ?The infill drilling continues to be very encouraging along with deeper drilling under the 100 metre deep open pit, which may possibly allow for a pit deeper than the proposed 100 metres.  We look forward to the drilling of the LZ as this is an entirely different geological structure than the Omega Mine area. Historically these splay structures off the main Larder Lake fault have produced some excellent mineral deposits, like the Upper Canada and the deep South Mine Complex at the Kirkland Gold/Queenston JV.?

To date Mistango has drilled a total of 76 holes comprising of 21,478.9 metres. Infill drilling is continuing with three drills to establish a resource to 100 metres depth in the proposed open pit area and as well as potential below this level for an expanded open pit.

Other Areas of Interest at Omega

During the early 1980?s to mid-1980?s Lenora Explorations, now Mistango, made two surface gold discoveries known as the Lake Zone (LZ) and the South West Zone (SWZ) which deserve mentioning as they hold potential to expand the present resources.

South West Zone (SWZ)*

The South West Zone was originally discovered by local prospector Davy Lowe and acquired by Lenora Explorations (Mistango). Several holes were drilled along with geophysics, line cutting and trenching. Work was suspended in the late 1980?s due to low gold prices.

Some of the drill holes returned excellent results and can be deemed economic at today?s gold price. For example:

• SW-80-11: 0.31 oz  gold over 14.0 feet (4.27 m); and
• SW-80-12: 0.107 oz gold over 35.2 feet (10.73 m).

No work has been done on the SWZ since the mid-1980's. Mistango plans on doing deep penetrating Induced Polarization (IP) geophysical surveys this coming summer.

Lake Zone (LZ)*

The Lake Zone was discovered in 1981 by Lenora Explorations (Mistango) prospectors. Geophysics, line cutting and surface stripping was carried out, followed by diamond drilling and a bulk sample. The LZ work were suspended due to falling gold prices and the appearance that the zone was diminishing.

Examples of some the holes returned assays as follows:

• L-82-3: 0.28 oz gold over 4.1 ft (1.25 m) and 0.047 oz gold over 15 ft.
• L-83-20: 0.056 oz gold over 56.4 ft (17.20 m), including 0.189 oz gold over 9 ft (2.74 m). This hole was the deepest drilled.

One hole drilled north of the LZ known as the North LZ L-83-76 returned 0.024 oz gold over 60 ft. (18.29 m), including 0.14 oz gold over 5ft (1.52 m).

No meaningful work was carried out here after the 1980's until 2011 when Mistango conducted line cutting, Magnetometer, IP surveys including deep penetrating IP geochemical and some surface stripping.

The geophysics showed that the original discovery area has a low magnetic signature in contact with a high magnetic signature (ultramafic rocks) extending in an N/E, S/W direction for approximately 700-800 metres. Near surface IP was found on every line in contact with the low and high mag area along with excellent gold and associated minerals soil geochemistry.

The deep IP has shown a remarkable increase in conductivity under the prior drilled area directly associated with the 1980's drilling.

Hinse P.Eng. dated February 22, 1984. Mr. Hinse is considered to be an expert on the Larder Lake area.

QA/QC was followed in sampling the core. The core is sawed in half for sampling. Standards, blanks and duplicates were inserted into the stream of core samples every 20 metres. The core was assayed at Expert Laboratory Inc. at Rouyn-Noranda, PQ, and Swastika Laboratories Ltd at Swastika, Ontario, using 30 gram samples. The core samples were analyzed using the fire assay method and AA finish.  Fred Sharpley, P.Geo, is the QP for the Omega Property.
