CBG Expands Strategic Land Position at Niblack
1,250 Acres of Key Mineral Claims Added

June 12, 2009

EDMONTON, Alberta - CBR Gold Corp. (CBG: TSX-V) ("CBG"), is pleased to announce the staking of additional mineral claims contiguous to its 100% owned Niblack Au-Cu-Ag-Zn project located southwest of Ketchikan on Prince of Wales Island, in Southeast Alaska.  An additional 150 federal lode claims have been staked adjacent to the Niblack Resource area covering  potential down-and up-plunge extensions to the known resource as well as potential fold repetition of the host Lookout Rhyolite. Approximately 1,250 acres have been staked, adding to CBG's previous land holdings of 3,300 acres.

Based on the results of the 2008 underground drill program CBG updated the Niblack resource (see CBG press release dated March 26, 2009) which now comprises an Indicated Resource of 2,272,000 tonnes grading 2.42 g/t gold ("Au"), 34.66 g/t silver ("Ag"), 1.27% copper ("Cu")and 2.36% zinc ("Zn") and an Inferred Resource of 1,502,000 tonnes grading 2.22 g/t Au, 34.62 g/t Ag, 1.68% Cu, and 3.43% Zn based on a US $50 NSR block cut-off. The 2008 drilling results indicate that the Lookout Zone remains open down-plunge to the southwest and that excellent potential exists to significantly expand known mineralization in this direction based on drill holes U-27 (8.11m @ 4.29 g/t Au, 64.14 g/t Ag, 1.85% Cu and 8.75% Zn) and U-28 (78.66m @ 4.83 g/t Au, 85.31 g/t Ag, 1.89% Cu and 4.93% Zn) which were drilled on the southwest extremities of the resource area.

Niblack Deposit

Polymetallic VHMS mineralization at Niblack is hosted by a thick sequence of rhyolite that currently hosts six main massive sulphide occurrences - the historic Niblack Mine, Dama Zone, Lindsy Zone, Trio Zone, Mammoth Zone and Lookout Zone. Mineralization is controlled by fold repetition of the rhyolite sequence, with the Lookout and Trio zones located on the overturned limb of a property-scale synclinal fold.
