Ryan Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:RYG), "Ryan Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to report initial anomalous gold-in-soil values of between 100 ppb and 574 ppb from the reconnaissance soil program conducted on the Sapphire Prospect in the Kluane project area during the 2011 exploration season. The Sapphire Prospect is one of seventeen claim blocks that make up the current Kluane Project Area (see following map: http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/KluanePresentation_Sapphire.pdf).

The Sapphire prospect is located approximately 200 km northwest from the city of Whitehorse and within the Whitehorse Mining District of the Yukon Territory. The Sapphire Prospect initially comprised a total of 460 claims for 9,614 hectares (See following map: http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/KluanePresentation_Sapphire.pdf).

This summer a total of 2,199 contour and ridge and spur soil samples were taken at 50 m sample spacing within and surrounding the original Sapphire claim block. Anomalous gold-in-soil values greater than 100 ppb gold, the upper 1% of the gold-in-soil values, and up to a maximum of 574 ppb gold were identified over the claim blocks covering an area of approximately 13 km by 8 km (See following map: http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/Sapphire_Soils.pdf). The geology of the area is comprised predominantly of late Cretaceous Kluane Schist intruded by 1-2 m wide diorite - granodiorite dykes. Pyrite bearing dacite boulders were observed in close proximity to saddles within the area mapped. In the southwestern corner of the Sapphire claim block an undeformed granodiorite, intrudes the Kluane Schist. Two sets of quartz veins, one set parallel and the other cross-cutting the schistose fabric, were observed within the schist package. Minor quartz veins have been observed in the granodiorite dykes.

The Company considers the above gold-in-soil results together with the evidence of quartz veining in the schists and pyrite mineralisation observed in dacite boulders to be very encouraging for targeting gold mineralisation on the claim.

Based on the encouraging soil results and reconnaissance mapping, an additional 207 claims totalling 4,326 hectares have been staked to augment the Company's land position. Reconnaissance ridge and spur sampling will be conducted within this new area in the summer of 2012 and detailed soil grids and geological mapping will be completed over the main areas of interest. The expanded Sapphire Prospect now totals 667 claims and 13,940 hectares.

Ryan Gold together with Acme Laboratory has a QA/QC policy in place to ensure accuracy, precision and quality of results. Acme Laboratory is an ISO 9001 registered laboratory.

About Ryan Gold Corp.

Ryan Gold Corp. is an exploration company focussed on gold exploration primarily in the Yukon Territory, Canada. The Company is well funded and has a large land package of approximately 5,047 km2 comprised of 83 different properties. The company's flagship property is Ida Oro. During the summer of 2010 a soil sampling programme completed on Ida Oro revealed a significant, greater than 100 ppb Au, gold-in-soil anomaly over an area of 4 km by 1.2 km. The company completed an 11 drill hole drill campaign for a total of 2,854 m. In addition to Ida Oro the Company completed an aggressive and systematic exploration program on its other properties that included 13,985 line kilometres of airborne magnetic and radiometric surveys, flown on the Mahtin and Nug properties and collected 91,168 soil samples and geological mapping of targets borne out of this campaign. Through this aggressive exploration program the company objective is to have at least three other projects drill ready for the 2012 exploration season.
