Brigadier Gold (BRG-TSXV) Has Commenced Drill Program On The Incamayo Project

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - March 1, 2011) - Brigadier Gold Limited (TSX VENTURE:BRG) (FRANKFURT:B7LN) is pleased to announce that drilling has commenced on the Incamayo Project in Northwest Argentina. Falcon Drilling (Barbados) Succursal Argentina ("Falcon") has been contracted to diamond drill a minimum of 1600 meters and the mobilization of a diamond drill rig to the property has been completed and drilling began today, Tuesday, March 1, 2011.

The placement and intent of the drill locations is summarized below.

An initial two holes will test the northern end of known mineralization, with one hole twinning CG97-07, the best of 9 holes drilled on the property in 1997 by Mansfield Minerals, and the second hole to aid in defining parameters to this mineralization.

The 9 Mansfield drill holes were designed to test for economic grade mineralization below several well mineralized sections encountered in trenches excavated during the previous exploration season. CG97-07, the Mansfield "discovery hole", as reported in a Mansfield November 14, 1997 news release available on Sedar, "…. was a significant departure from the gold/silver mineralization observed in the trenches that contains comparatively high silver values with very low sulphides". It was also located 600 metres to the northeast of other mineralized holes.

Check sampling in December by Brigadier confirmed high gold and silver values in the Mansfield surface trenches, with values up to 147 grams per tonne gold and 690 grams per tonne silver with low sulphides.

The remaining drill holes will test mineralized zones to the southwest of the Mansfield discovery hole. As noted in Brigadier's February 8, 2011 news release, a review of the 1997 drill program determined that many of the drill holes were oriented incorrectly to test the mineralized zones exposed at surface.

The results of the IP survey recently completed by Argali Geophysica of Antofagasta, Chile on the Incamayo property, combined with an ongoing mapping program, will allow more accurate placement of drill holes to test the mineralized zones. Hole locations will be 'fine tuned' based on an interpretation of the IP results by Fritz Geophysics of Fort Collins, Colorado.

The ongoing mapping program has also identified additional mineralization at Incamayo, which results will also aid in defining drill hole locations.

Exploration at Incamayo is being conducted by personnel of Discovery Consultants of Vernon, BC. Thomas H. Carpenter, PGeo, of Discovery is the QP responsible for the preparation of this release.
