Victoria Gold Corporation (TSX-V: VIT) [the "Company"] is pleased to announce that a recently completed mineral resource estimate for the Company's Eagle Gold Deposit, Dublin Gulch, Yukon, prepared by Wardrop, A Tetra Tech Company ["Wardrop"], has resulted in a significant increase in the "Indicated" mineral resources for the deposit, to 4.827 million ounces of gold, an increase of 50% over the previous (2010) NI 43-101 compliant mineral resource estimate as shown in the following table:

* Cut-off grade of 0.35 g Au/tonne. Tonnes, grade and contained ounces subject to rounding.

Wardrop also estimated "Inferred" mineral resources for the Eagle deposit:

* Cut-off grade of 0.35 g Au/tonne. Tonnes, grade and contained ounces subject to rounding.

"This revised global resource estimate clearly demonstrates the robust nature of the mineralization and provides a glimpse of the true potential at Eagle" commented Mr. John McConnell, President and Chief Executive Officer of Victoria Gold. "With permitting already in process, an extensive exploration program underway and an optimized Feasibility Study coming out later this year, Eagle is clearly the most advanced project in the Yukon and we look forward to beginning construction in less than 18 months."

The increase in the "Indicated" resource, as calculated by Wardrop, is primarily the result of:

• New drill assay information that was obtained during the Company's 2010 exploration drilling program;
• The inclusion of gold mineralization that is hosted in meta-sedimentary rocks that adjoin the main portion of the of the Eagle deposit;
• The estimate was not constrained by a 'pit shell' as was the case in the 2010 estimate; and
• Change in the cut-off grade as a result of a higher gold price.

The inclusion of gold resources hosted in meta-sedimentary rocks, which adjoin the granodiorite host at Eagle, is the result of updated geologic models of the Eagle mineralization that clearly demonstrate the continuity of gold mineralization in this unit and the adjoining granodiorite-hosted mineralization, as outlined by drill hole results. The 2010 mineral resource estimate for the project did not include any resources hosted within meta-sedimentary rocks.

Wardrop is currently carrying out a Feasibility Study (see News Release dated January 25, 2011) as a follow up to the Preliminary Feasibility Study completed in 2010 (see News Release dated March, 9, 2010) which includes Proven & Probable Reserves of 1.75 million ounces contained within the 2010 Resource Estimate. Wardrop is focused on optimizing the project economics and a completed Feasibility Study is expected by Q4 2011.

Greg Mosher, P.Geo., Senior Geologist, with Wardrop, is the Qualified Person responsible for the preparation of the mineral re source estimate and has reviewed and approved the technical information within this news release.

A conference call to discuss the resource update will be held at 11:00 am (EST) on March 22, 2011. Investors are invited to participate by connecting to the call using the following dial-in number:
