AM Gold Inc. (TSX VENTURE:AMG)(FRANKFURT:AMX) ("AM Gold" or the "Company")
announces the results of the recently completed geophysical surveys at the
Company's Pinaya gold copper-silver project. The surveys outlined 19 EM
anomalies indicative of sulphide mineralization, within a wider area of moderate
chargeability and lower magnetic response interpreted as altered volcanic or
intrusive rocks.


Neil Downey, VP of Exploration, comments: "These results indicate size and depth
continuity to the alteration we have mapped and sampled at surface, and will
provide a useful guide to the forthcoming exploration program. There is a strong
correlation between the existing drilling and geophysical signatures and
additional targets throughout the property as well as potential for expansion of
the resource both laterally and at depth. The existing geophysical signature
indicates that the three resource zones designated the NW Porphyry, the Western
Porphyry, and the Gold Oxide Skarn zone (as per news releases dated May 12,
2011, June 2, 2011, June 6, 2011) are adjoined at depth and expansive laterally.
The presence of the high sulphidation epithermal Au-Ag-Cu mineralized zones
remote from the resource area substantiates the potential to expand the current
resource on the property." Mr. Downey further noted, "The geophysics combined
with surface geochemistry has confirmed the 4 mineralized zones surrounding the
resource area as primary drill targets. An additional 3 drill targets have been
outlined on the southern portion of the property. We have defined 4 anomalous
areas in the northern portion of the property for detailed follow up to outline
drill targets." See the maps appended to this news release for further details
on the geophysical survey. 


The helicopter borne ZTEM geophysical program targeted disseminated and
semi-massive copper sulphide mineralization to a depth of up to 1,500 metres.
The ZTEM results, from 1,358 line kilometers of survey at 200 metre line
spacing, indicate the presence of multiple porphyry targets at depth. A 2D
inversion over the resource area has indicated an apparent intrusive with deep
roots. The survey also indicates that this feature is open to the North and
South along with associated alteration of sediments to the east. The survey
shows a large NNW-SSE trend of relatively high background resistivity and low
magnetics through the center of the property. Four priority conductor target
areas with co-incident surface soil/rock Cu-Ag-Au geochem anomalies and
associated mapped porphyry outcrops have been outlined within this major tend
(see the maps appended to this news release). Additional 2D inversions will be
completed in the anomalous zones to provide detailed modeling for upcoming drill
programs.


The Pinaya gold copper-silver project is located within the prolific Tertiary
Volcanic Andahuaylas-Yauri Belt of southern Peru. The AM Gold land package,
within the heart of the tightly held area, is surrounded by BHP Billiton, Teck,
Newmont, Vale, IAM Gold, Orion, and a number of smaller mining companies.
Goldfields and Buenaventura are also prominent in the area with their recent
discovery of Chucapaca. Mapping by AM Gold in 2011 at Pinaya yielded additional
widespread alteration, brecciation, vein stockworking and high level porphyry
outcrops correlating to the existing resource and indicative of the presence of
porphyry systems at depth. Completion of surface rock and soil geochemistry work
over the southern portion of the property identified several new zones with
anomalous copper and associated silver and gold values. The observed epithermal
Cu-Ag-Au mineralization is typical of that proximal to porphyry systems.


Geotech Airborne Geophysical Surveys, with head offices in Aurora Ontario,
conducted the helicopter borne ZTEM survey. Preliminary reports were prepared by
Ali Lartrous and Jean Legault P.GEO, P.Eng of Geotech Ltd. Kyle T. Grey,
Consulting Geologist of Reno Nevada completed a review for AM Gold.
