Wildcat Exploration Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:WEL) is pleased to announce that San Gold
Corporation has provided an initial report on its drill program in the vicinity
of the former Jeep gold mine on Wildcat's Jeep property. The property is located
14 km east of Bissett, Manitoba, within the Rice Lake greenstone belt. To date,
San Gold has drilled eight holes on the Jeep property and has received assays
for four holes. Drilling is currently in progress. 


The Jeep property, together with Wildcat's Mike Power and Poundmaker properties,
is under option to San Gold (see news release dated August 10, 2011) whereby San
Gold can earn an 80% interest the property by carrying out $5.1 million of
exploration expenditures over 4 years and making cash payments of $1 million in
total and subscribing to $1 million of Wildcat shares.


The current program is designed to test the Jeep quartz vein system deeper and
down plunge of previous drill programs, and new gold horizons parallel to the
Jeep trend. Significant results are as follows:




JP-12-001  0.368 ounces Au per ton over 3.8 feet core length from 73.0 to   
           76.8 feet.                                                       
JP-12-002  0.141 ounces Au per ton over 2.5 feet core length from 92.0 to   
           94.5 feet                                                        
JP-12-002  0.085 ounces Au per ton over 4.0 feet core length from 1471.0 to 
           1475.0 feet                                                      
JP-12-005  0.238 ounces Au per ton over 1.9 feet core length from 168.0 to  
           169.9 feet                                                       



In addition to deep drill holes on the Jeep Mine structure, San Gold has
identified drill targets on other favourable structures as a result of
geological interpretations based on their recently flown airborne survey. These
holes are expected to be drilled when access improves, either with drier
conditions later in the summer or after winter freeze-up. 


The historic Jeep gold mine produced approximately 14,000 ounces of gold at an
average grade of 0.78 ounces per ton of ore (non-NI 43-101 compliant) from 1948
through 1950.


Tom Lewis, Wildcat's VP of Exploration commented, "San Gold has intersected gold
mineralization on 3 of 4 holes drilled with available assay results. I am
looking forward to the results from drilling deeper down in the system, and the
step out holes testing structures parallel to the main Jeep structure."


Wildcat's exploration program is managed by Tom Lewis, P.Eng., a Qualified
Person as defined by NI 43-101, who has reviewed all technical information in
this release.
