Viper Gold Ltd. ("Viper Gold" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:VPR) is pleased to
announce that it has issued 400,000 common shares to Duran Ventures Inc.
("Duran") thereby satisfying all of the payment terms of the Option Agreement
with Duran. Under the terms of the Option Agreement, Viper has now earned a
fifty percent (50%) beneficial interest in the Corongo Property located in the
Department of Ancash of Peru. 


"Earning Viper's fifty percent interest in the Corongo Property is an important
milestone for the Company" said Paul Davis, President and Chief Executive
Officer of Viper Gold. "Exploration results from the first phase of drilling on
the Corongo Property are encouraging with intercepts of gold and silver
mineralization in each area tested in the 2011 exploration program. Exploration
on the Corongo Property has only just begun and I believe these results confirm
the exploration potential of the Property. The ultimate goal of Viper Gold is to
advance the Corongo Property through a series of well designed exploration
programs, resulting in the definition of a gold and silver resource."


Assay results from twelve drill holes confirm the presence of gold, silver and
copper mineralization in the Santa Rosa East, Descubridora and Santa Rosa areas
as previously reported in press releases dated June 9 and July 26, 2011 which
are available on the Company's website at www.vipergoldltd.com or on SEDAR at
www.sedar.com. Drilling intersected gold and silver mineralization associated
with quartz-veins and quartz stockworks with alteration consistent with
epithermal systems. Significant assay results are summarized in the following
table:

All assay intervals reported are core length and do not represent true widths
(defined as being measured at right angles to the direction of extension of the
sulphide body). SRE: Santa Rosa East; DES: Descubridora; SR: Santa Rosa.


A total of twelve (12) holes representing 1,757 metres of diamond drilling have
been completed on the Corongo Property to date. Future exploration work is
planned on the western portion of the property and may include ground
geophysics, mapping and sampling and establishing access to prepare the
Pucapampa and Breccia Zone areas for further exploration.


Assay Information

Samples were shipped to and assaying was carried out by the ALS Chemex
Laboratory in Lima, Peru, a laboratory whose quality control system complies
with International Standards ISO 9001:2000 and ISO 17025:2005. A four-acid
digestion with 33 element ICP-AES analysis is conducted on all samples, with
silver, lead and zinc being reanalyzed with atomic absorption spectrometry
method when analyzing over the ICP limits. Gold is assayed using a fire assay
with an atomic absorption spectrometry finish. With samples containing over 10
parts per million ("ppm") gold, a gravimetric finish is employed. A secure chain
of custody is maintained in storing and transporting all samples.
