News for 'PGCR' - (Uragold Aquires Up to 100% Interest for Two Claims on the Beauce Placer Gold Property)

MONTREAL, QUEBEC, Nov 24, 2011 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- Uragold Bay Resources
Inc. (TSX VENTURE: UBR), Uragold is pleased to announce that it has acquired the
remaining 50% interest for an undivided 100% interest in two claims of the
Beauce Placer Property. Uragold shall pay the Vendor 2,000,000 common shares of
UBR that will be subject to a four-month hold. This completes a transaction with
a private vendor first announced January 19, 2010.

About the Beauce Placer Gold Property

The Beauce Placer property was the site of Canada's first gold rush in the
1850's, years before the Klondike gold rush. Two of Canada's largest gold
nuggets, the Kilgour nugget at 52 ounces and the McDonald nugget at 45 ounces,
came from the Gilbert River, which flows through the property.

In the early 1960's, the property was the site of a major placer gold mining
operation. The Beauce Placer Mining Co. was the only commercial placer gold
mining operation in eastern North America.

As reported previously, (Uragold press release July 5, 2011) Uragold's sonic
drilling program has validated previous historical work that identified a placer
gold bearing deposit in an orange-brown basal till. Also reported, (Uragold
press release April 18, 2011) analysis of recovered gold grains suggests a
proximity to a bedrock source of gold, within the limits of the UBR Property.
