Sutter Gold Mining Inc. (TSX VENTURE:SGM)(OTCQX:SGMNF) ("Sutter" or the
"Company") is pleased to announce that it will accept the terms of a permit
proffered on June 15, 2012 by the US Army Corps of Engineers to fill wetlands
under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act for the Lincoln Mine Project in
California's Mother Lode Gold Belt. Having reviewed the permit terms and
conditions, Sutter plans to sign and return the permit to the District Engineer
for final authorization. In related news on June 1, 2012 the California Regional
Water Quality Control Board issued a Water Quality Certification under Section
401 of the Clean Water Act. This was the last of the regulatory approvals the
Company needed for the US Army Corps of Engineers to issue the permit to fill
wetlands.


"The timing of the Water Quality Certification Order and the permit proffered by
the US Army Corps of Engineers fits well with the Company's summer 2012
construction schedule," said Leanne Baker, President and CEO. "Sutter has worked
very hard to minimize the environmental impacts of the Lincoln Mine Project and
this permit allows us to move forward with construction of surface disposal
facilities for waste rock and tailings, including a new access road to the
tailings disposal unit." The permit allows the Company to fill approximately
0.75 acre of seasonal wetlands and other waters of the United States while fully
mitigating these impacts with higher value seasonal wetlands. The final stages
of earthwork and construction of mine waste management units are scheduled to
begin by July 1, 2012, consistent with Sutter's plans to put the Lincoln Mine
into production in the fourth quarter of 2012.


The Company also is pleased to announce two other important developments on the
regulatory and permitting front: First, on June 4, 2012 the federal Mine Safety
and Health Administration (MSHA) notified the Company that it approved Sutter's
Alternative Mine Rescue Plan. This will allow for the start of pre-development
underground work leading to gold production by the end of 2012. Second, on June
12, 2012 Amador County issued a building permit for the Lincoln Mine Project's
Shop/Staff Services Building. 


"MSHA's approval of our mine rescue plan is a critical milestone towards
bringing the mine to production and vacating the temporarily closed status
approved by MSHA in 1994," said Matthew Collins, COO. "With the mill building
construction well underway, issuance of the latest county permit should allow
for planned completion of the Shop/Staff Services Building in time for the
commissioning of the mill."


The material in this news release has been reviewed by Matthew Collins, COO, a
Qualified Person as defined in NI 43-101.


About Sutter

Sutter is a growth-oriented exploration and development company preparing to
become a North American gold producer. The Company has two projects: the Lincoln
Project located in Amador County, California and the Santa Theresa Project
located in the Northern Baja region of Mexico. Currently, the Company's primary
focus is the evaluation and development of the Lincoln Project, beginning with
the shallow portion of the Lincoln-Comet ore zone of the Lincoln Project,
located on the California Mother Lode Gold Belt. The Lincoln-Comet and Keystone
zones have a NI 43-101 compliant Indicated Resource estimate (completed in
February 2008) of 612,400 tonnes (673,600 tons) grading 11.3 g/t Au (0.33
oz/ton) containing 223,000 ounces of gold and Inferred Resources of 2,161,700
tonnes (2,377,900 tons) grading 6.6 g/t Au (0.19 oz/ton) containing 458,900
ounces of gold.


Sutter currently controls approximately 3.6 miles of the Mother Lode of Amador
County, with 90% of the property still unexplored. Potential exists both at
depth and along strike of the known mineralized zones on both the footwall and
hanging wall. The 120-mile long Mother Lode Gold Belt produced over 13 million
ounces of gold historically with 7.9 million ounces originating from the 10-mile
long segment between Jackson and Plymouth where the Lincoln Project is
strategically located. Properties under the Company's control include seven
historic mines with significant historic gold production totaling over 3.5
million ounces or 27% of the historic gold production from the Mother Lode.
Historic mines located north and south of the Lincoln Project in the Jackson to
Plymouth segment of the Mother Lode success fully mined gold to depths of 4,500
and 6,300 feet, respectively.


In Mexico, Sutter holds the rights to the geologically similar, high-grade El
Alamo district of northern Baja, where historic mining to the water table
produced mined grades of 30 to 60 g/t gold. Initial exploration with its
joint-venture partner, Premier Gold, has demonstrated the extension of
high-grade veins.
