Hunt Gold Corporation -- Further Acquisitions Completed

Company Completes the Acquisition of the Additional Claim Blocks Surrounding Its "Mockingbird" Gold Mine in Arizona

NEW YORK, NY--(MARKET WIRE)--Mar 11, 2009 -- Hunt Gold Corporation (Other OTC:HGLC.PK - News) has completed the acquisition of the final 800 acres that had to be staked connecting its "Mockingbird" Gold Project claim block to its "Gold Hill" property.

The new claims are centered on Mt. Perkins, an extinct stratovolcano located south of the Company's "Mockingbird" Gold Mine. Mt. Perkins was active during Miocene time, roughly from 18 million to 12 million years ago. This is contemporaneous with the detachment faulting that is associated with the "Mockingbird" Gold deposits. Gold mineralization may also be related to volcanism, as several of the Company's mines (including the "Mockingbird," "Great West" and "Dandy" Gold Mines) are spatially associated with volcanic dikes.

Previous reconnaissance at Mt. Perkins has revealed widespread hematitic alteration and red quartz in outcrop similar to the quartz that has hosted the highest gold values in previous sampling at both of the Company's "Dandy" and the "Great West" Gold Mines.

This brings the "Mockingbird" Gold Project land position to approximately 5,600 acres and Hunt Gold Corporation's total land position to over 13,500 acres.
