			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>MONTRÉAL, QUÉBEC&#8211;(Marketwire &#8211; 3 fév. 2012) -</strong> <strong>CORPORATION TOMAGOLD (TSX CROISSANCE:LOT)</strong> (« TomaGold » ou la « Compagnie ») &#8211; est heureuse d&#8217;annoncer qu&#8217;elle a débuté un programme de forage totalisant 3 000 mètres et 21 sondages sur sa propriété Monster Lake détenue à 100% par la Compagnie et localisée au sud-ouest des districts miniers de Chibougamau-Chapais.</p>
<p>La propriété Monster Lake a récemment été acquise par TomaGold, en même temps que deux autres projets aurifères (Urban et Vassan), de Stellar Pacific Ventures inc. Au cours des deux dernières années, Stellar a complété 46 forages aux diamants (5 235 mètres) sur des structures aurifères découvertes le long d&#8217;un corridor minéralisé de direction NNE. La minéralisation est associée à des veines de quartz noir avec sulfures à l&#8217;intérieur d&#8217;une zone de cisaillement d&#8217;une largeur variant de 3 à 10 mètres, le tout à l&#8217;intérieur d&#8217;unités basaltiques. </p>
<p>Des résultats significatifs furent obtenus par Stellar tout au long du système minéralisé. Le tableau suivant donne un sommaire des meilleurs intervalles (programmes de 2010 et 2011) :</p>

<p>La Compagnie désire poursuivre les travaux de Stellar et continuer à tester par forage les indices aurifères de surface mis à jour lors des travaux de décapage et de rainurage de l&#8217;été et de l&#8217;automne 2011. La Compagnie va explorer plusieurs portions du système minéralisé, incluant les zones découvertes récemment au sud de la propriété ainsi que l&#8217;indice bien connu au centre de la propriété appelé Eratix.</p>
<p><strong>À PROPOS DE LA PROPRIÉTÉ MONSTER LAKE </strong></p>
<p>La propriété Monster Lake est située à 44 kilomètres au sud-ouest de la ville de Chibougamau dans le nord-ouest Québécois. Elle est facilement accessible par la route et une ligne électrique majeure traverse la région à proximité. Entre 1984 et 1995, Soquem a complété 142 sondages totalisant près de 20 000 mètres de carotte et elle a fait de nombreuses tranchées le long du corridor minéralisé de 4 kilomètres de longueur. Avant le début des travaux de Stellar, on comptait déjà plus de 45 intervalles titrant plus de 1 g/t Au, en carotte et en rainure. Les trois indices principaux, Eratix, Zones IV et III et la Zone 52 ont été testés par forage selon une maille de 50 mètres mais, dans la plupart des cas, avec un seul sondage par section laissant ainsi plusieurs intervalles minéralisés ouverts latéralement et en profondeur.</p>
