Banks Island Gold Ltd. (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:BOZ) is pleased to announce that it has received the final report from Geotech Ltd. on the VTEM plus time-domain airborne geophysical survey flown in September 2011.

The Company views the VTEM plus survey to be highly successful. Conductive anomalies appear to correlate to several of the known mineralized zones on Banks Island. Importantly, new targets with strong conductive anomalies in unexplored areas have been identified by the survey.

The strongest conductor, with a strike length of approximately 700m, is in an unexplored area under Witness Lake and marsh. A strong anomaly is present north of Sproatt Lake along strike and to the east of the Crossbreak showing. Several conductors were identified in the Arseno Lake area where known mineralization occurs, including the Discovery and Kim Zones, and where a large geochemical soil anomaly was outlined by previous operators.

Several strong anomalies ranging from 300m to 700m in strike length were identified on the Waller Peninsula over a 2km2 area. There are no records of exploration on the Waller Peninsula by previous operators or in the public domain. In addition to steeply dipping "structural" conductors similar to the known mineralized zones on Banks Island, flat or slightly dipping conductors ranging from "thin" to "thick" were identified.

The Company is encouraged that conductive anomalies appear to coincide in location and orientation over the Tel and the Discovery Zones. Several conductive anomalies correlate with other known mineralized showings on Banks Island. A 300m long northwest trending anomaly under Hepler Lake at the Island prospect is present and a 500m long northwest trending anomaly is present on the southwest shore of Crazy Lakes.

Principal geophysical sensors used in the survey included a versatile time domain electromagnetic (VTEMplus) system and horizontal magnetic gradiometer. A total of 978 line-kilometers of geophysical data were acquired during the survey. Data analysis was performed by Geotech Ltd.

The Company is currently evaluating and prioritizing the geophysical targets outlined by Geotech Ltd. A program of geological mapping followed by drill testing is contemplated. Geophysical maps, reports, and summaries will be available on www.banksislandgold.com.
