Arctic Gold AB (ARCT): Mineral resource in Bidjovagge increased

Arctic Gold AB (ARCT): Mineral resource in Bidjovagge increased

The mineral resource in Bidjovagge has been increased by 35% through a recent
study by Outotec (Finland) Oy after the drilling in 2011.  The results show a
2.06 million ton indicated mineral resource with 1.60 g/t gold (2.23 g/t
“uncut”) and 1.15% copper as well as 240,000 ton inferred mineral resource with
2.6 g/t gold (2.6 g/t “uncut”) and 0.9% copper.  This mineral resource refers to
in situ resources in the bedrock at a cut off of 2.0 g/t gold equivalent
(Aueq=Au+2.1*Cu bases on a gold price of 950 Us$/tr oz and a copper price of
5,500 Us$/t).

The update carried out by Outotec (Finland) Oy includes mainly mineralization
located in direct connection with the former production areas. The estimation
includes the following mineralizations: North Field, B, Karin, Franciska, A, D,
Hilde, C and Laura and have been done in accordance with the JORC standard.  The
table below shows tonnage and grades at a cut off of 2 g/t gold equivalent and
1.0 g/t gold equivalent respectively.

Indicated Mineral Resource

+----------+---------+--------+------+---------+---------+------------+
|Cut off   |Ton      |Au (g/t)|Cu (%)|Gold (kg)|Gold (oz)|Copper (ton)|
+----------+---------+--------+------+---------+---------+------------+
|2 g/t Aueq|2 059 000|1.60    |1.15  |3 294    |105 930  |23 678      |
+----------+---------+--------+------+---------+---------+------------+
|1 g/t Aueq|2 307 000|1.48    |1.09  |3 414    |109 787  |25 146      |
+----------+---------+--------+------+---------+---------+------------+

Inferred Mineral Resource

+----------+-------+--------+------+
|Cut off   |Ton    |Au (g/t)|Cu (%)|
+----------+-------+--------+------+
|2 g/t Aueq|240 000|2.6     |0.9   |
+----------+-------+--------+------+
|1 g/t Aueq|250 000|2.5     |0.9   |
+----------+-------+--------+------+

NB! Top cuts between 5-30 g/t gold has been used for the different
mineralizations and therefor a direct comparison can´t be made with earlier
published figures of the gold content.

-A very important increase has been in the inferred resource where the Deep ore
north of Karin was estimated at 195,000 ton and thereby shows potential for
future drilling, says Lars-Åke Claesson.

Previously the company has also reported a mineral resource of 300,000 tons with
1.79 g/t gold and 0.60% copper in the old marginal ore heaps which is equivalent
to 537 kg of gold and 1,800 tons of copper.  This resource should be added to
the in-situ resource making the total indicated mineral resource 2.3 million
tons with 1.62 g/t gold and 1.08% copper, which is equivalent to around 3,800 kg
gold and 25,000 tons of copper.

Further details can be found in the Outotec (Finland) Oy report which is being
published shortly on the company’s web site www.arcticgold.se.
