STRATAGOLD ANNOUNCES FIRST TASSAWINI MINERAL RESOURCE ESTIMATE AND CONTINUED AGGRESSIVE EXPLORATION AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES

April 2, 2007 � Vancouver, BC � StrataGold Corporation (SGV.TSX) announces that it has received the first National Instrument (NI) 43-101 compliant Mineral Resource estimate of select zones within the 100% owned Tassawini and Anaturi Prospecting Licenses (PL�s), Guyana. The Mineral Resource estimate, which was prepared by Lions Gate Geological Consulting Inc., is based only on the results of the diamond drill program conducted by StrataGold within the 30 hectare (ha) area surrounding historical open pits. Not included in the estimate are more than 640 ha of additional new gold targets located within the 9,637 ha Tassawini and Anaturi PL�s.

The Mineral Resource estimate includes the following select zones: Tassawini East, Tassawini West (including Mine Creek), Tassawini South and Black Ridge and is tabulated below, reported at 0.50 g/t gold cut-off.

A capping strategy was applied to the assay data prior to grade interpolation for the Mineral Resource estimate to minimize overweighting of higher grade gold values.

Tassawini and Anaturi PL 2007 Exploration

StrataGold has budgeted Cdn. $8.5 million in 2007 to continue aggressive exploration and development efforts with the following goals:

• Within the new gold target areas work will include induced polarization geophysical surveys, trenching, reverse circulation and diamond drilling to define additional resources. The eight new gold targets are Sonne North (46 ha), Sonne South (45 ha), Clutch (72 ha), Matahari (175 ha), Mora (124 ha), Stamp Mill (83 ha), Kathmandu (62 ha) and Caravan (34 ha). The new gold targets have been defined with soil sampling and reverse circulation drilling.
• Within the area of the Mineral Resource, additional diamond drilling will focus on the open areas identified along strike and down dip of the select zones to define additional resources. StrataGold will also evaluate a lower economic cut-off grade.
• To conduct additional specific gravity, metallurgical and bulk sampling test work and environmental studies.

The results and geological understanding gained by previous exploration programs will enhance the 2007 exploration and development efforts. Since acquiring Tassawini, StrataGold has spent Cdn. $7.3 million on 36,300 metres of reverse circulation drilling (in 969 holes) and 38,037 metres of diamond drilling (in 260 holes) and assaying.

Barama Joint Venture

Diamond drilling and induced polarization geophysical surveys are ongoing on targets that have been identified within StrataGold�s 405,400 ha (1 million acre) Barama Reconnaissance Permit (BRP) which is subject to a 50/50 joint venture agreement with Newmont Overseas Exploration Limited (BRL Venture), a subsidiary of U.S.-based Newmont Mining Corporation (NYSE & ASX: NEM; TSX: NMC). The BRL Venture provides for exploration within the BRP but excludes the 100% owned Tassawini and Anaturi PL�s.

Parameters Used to Calculate the Mineral Resource

Susan Lomas, P.Geo. and Ali Shahkar, P. Eng. of Lions Gate Geological Consulting Inc. of North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada are the Qualified Persons under NI 43-101 responsible for the Mineral Resource estimate. A NI 43-101 Technical Report detailing the project and Mineral Resource estimate protocols will be filed on SEDAR within 45 days.

Mineralization at Tassawini was interpreted into four zones; Tassawini East, Tassawini West (which includes Mine Creek), Tassawini South and Black Ridge.�Tassawini West and Black Ridge were further segregated into 9 domains each.� Each zone and domain was tagged into three weathering domains of saprolite, weathered (transition) rock or fresh rock to reflect the degree of saprolitization of the rock. Statistical analysis for each zone, domain and weathering domain were established for the gold distribution and bulk density data. Wireframe models were developed based on a 0.50 g/t gold grade shell for each zone and domain. The models were then used to constrain the 10 m by 10 m by 5 m (vertical) blocks used in the resource estimation. �

Assays were composited into 3.0 m intervals and statistical analysis and variography were completed for each zone and domain. Ordinary kriging was used to interpolate the grade for gold for each block. A restricted outlier strategy was used during grade interpolation to allow high grade composites to influence local blocks but restrict their influence on more distal blocks. Bulk density measurements collected during core logging were averaged by weathering domains and the following bulk density values were applied to each domain: 1.97 g/cm³ for saprolite, 2.20 g/cm³ weathered (transition) rock and 2.70 g/cm³ for fresh rock. Blocks were then classified into either the Indicated Mineral Resource or Inferred Mineral Resource categories. Indicated Mineral Resources were applied to a block if there were three drill holes within a 60 m by 30 m by 10 m ellipse oriented along the mineralized trend.� All other blocks were classed into the Inferred Mineral Resource category as the grade shells were not extended more than 25 m from the last drill holes.�The grades and tonnages reported in this resource estimate represent the material contained within the mineralized portion of the classified blocks.

Tassawini has a deep weathering profile where the gold-bearing metasedimentary rocks have predominantly been altered to "saprolite" (a soft clay-like rock) to a depth of up to 80 m below surface. Preliminary metallurgical results demonstrate excellent gold recoveries of up to 95% in the saprolite portions of Tassawini. The Mineral Resource estimate lying within saprolite, in all zones, is tabulated below reported at 0.50 g/t gold cut-off:

A summary of the results for the Mineral Resource estimate are presented below in a grade-tonnage table using 0.50, 0.75 and 1.00 g/t gold cut-off grades to demonstrate the sensitivity of tonnage to increasing cut-off grade.

Quality Control and Assurance of Samples

A rigorous Quality Control and Assurance program (QC/QA) is in place, using control samples and duplicates, as well as Chain of Custody (COC) protocols, under the supervision of Bill Yeomans, P.Geo., General Manager Exploration, South America. Tamperproof sample bags with zip lock tags are being utilized for all of the drill samples. The Tassawini samples were freighted by air in sealed containers to be analysed at either ALS Chemex in Vancouver or to the ACME sample prep facility located in Georgetown, Guyana. The samples prepped in the ACME�s Georgetown facility are air freighted to the ACME analytical laboratory in Santiago, Chile for analysis. Both ALS Chemex and ACME are recognized as an ISO 9000 registered laboratories. The control samples, blank and duplicate assay results received for the drilling program demonstrated to StrataGold that the results are considered reliable.

This news release uses the terms �Inferred Resource�, �Indicated Resource� and �Mineral Resource�. The Company advises readers that although these terms are recognized and required by Canadian securities regulations (under National Instrument 43-101 �Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects�), the US Securities and Exchange Commission does not recognize these terms. Readers are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of the mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into reserves. In addition, �Inferred Resources� have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that any part of an Indicated or Inferred Mineral Resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of Inferred Mineral Resources may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies, or economic studies except for a Preliminary Assessment as defined under National Instrument 43-101. Readers are cautioned not to assume that part or all of an inferred resource exists, or is economically or legally mineable. The Mineral Resources stated in this news release are not mineral reserves and, in the absence of a current feasibility study, do not demonstrate economic viability. The determination of mineral reserves can be affected by various factors including environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, and marketing issues on the estimate.
