Barisan Gold Corporation (TSX VENTURE:BG) is pleased to announce that it has
entered into a Conditional Sales and Purchase Agreement ("CSPA") with a private
Indonesian company whereby the private Indonesian company has agreed to purchase
Barisan Gold's 75% equity interest in PT Takengon Mineral Resources. PT Takengon
Mineral Resources owns the Takengon Exploration Izin Usaha Pertambangan ("IUP"),
which includes the Collins epithermal gold prospect. PT Takengon Mineral
Resources is separate from the Company's two key investments, PT Gayo Mineral
Resources (which contains the Barisan porphyry prospects) and PT Linge Mineral
Resources (which contains the Abong epithermal gold deposit).


As per the terms of the CSPA, the private Indonesian company will pay Barisan
Gold a total of 7,250,000,000 Indonesian rupiah (equivalent to approximately
$770,000 Canadian dollars). 1,000,000,000 rupiah have been deposited in escrow
already in the Company's bank account. Another 5,250,000,000 rupiah will be paid
upon closing of the transaction and the final 1,000,000,000 rupiah will be
payable one year after closing and secured by a certain number of shares in PT
Takengon Mineral Resources transferred under the CSPA. Closing of the
transaction is subject to a number of regulatory approvals in Indonesia and is
expected to close towards the end of the second calendar quarter of 2013.


Pro-forma for this transaction, Barisan Gold would have had approximately
$6,000,000 Canadian dollars in cash at January 31, 2013. This represents $0.15
per share of cash in the bank, a 100% premium to the current share price of the
Company. With a very conservative cash burn rate, Barisan Gold is well
positioned to have sufficient funds on hand to conduct the next phase of
drilling at both the Abong epithermal gold deposit and the Barisan porphyry
prospects when forestry borrow-use permits are issued.


Alex Granger, Chief Executive Officer of Barisan Gold, commented: "This
transaction represents a great opportunity for Barisan Gold to realize value for
a non-material property. In addition to eliminating the ongoing costs of
maintaining the Takengon IUP, we are also solidifying our balance sheet ahead of
re-starting drilling at the Abong project and the Barisan porphyry prospects
once we receive the forestry borrow-use permits."


During the December 2012/January 2013 period, Barisan Gold drilled four
exploratory holes at the Collins prospect to test the continuity of the veins
identified at surface with grade and depth. Results of the drilling campaign
were disappointing as they did not return the projected grade and width of the
veins at depth.
