West Big Rock Zone Drilling Intersects 16.8 m of 2.91 g/t Gold, Brewery Creek Project, Yukon
Vancouver, Canada

— January 19th, 2012:

Golden Predator Corp. (TSX:GPD) (the “Company”) is pleased to announce the results from 22 RC holes drilled in late 2011 from the West Big Rock Zone at its flagship Brewery Creek Project. Highlights of the current release include:

• RC-2439 with 13.7 m of 1.05 g/t gold from a depth of 86.9 m;
• RC-2443 with 9.1 m of 1.58 g/t gold from a depth of 106.7 m;
• RC-2449 with 16.8 m of 2.91 g/t gold from a depth of 67.1 including 10.7 m of 4.37 g/t gold; and
• RC-2461 with 45.7 m of 0.52 g/t gold from a depth of 102.1 m.

A complete table of results and location map can be found on the Company’s website at: http://www.goldenpredator.com/documents/GPD-NR12-05-Brewery-Creek-2011-West-Big-Rock-Results-FINAL.pdf

West Big Rock Zone Geology
The West Big Rock resource area is the farthest west known gold resource at the Brewery Creek Project. Gold mineralization occurs primarily in clay altered quartz monzonite sills and to a lesser extent in siliclastic sedimentary rocks. The primary mineralized zone outcrops, with a strike of N70 o E and dip of 40o to the southeast.

The 22 drill hole reverse circulation program was designed to test the down-dip continuity of the West Big Rock Zone which had seen previous drilling along a 450 m strike. Drill holes RC11-2449 through RC11-2452 and RC11-2461 encountered significant gold mineralization in the western portion of the deposit over a strike length of 150 m and from 40 to 70 m down dip from previous drilling. These drill holes represent the most westerly drill tests of the West Big Rock Zone, which remains open to the west along strike. Drill holes RC11-2454 through RC11-2457 also encountered significant gold mineralization over a 75 m strike length and approximately 50 m down dip from previous drilling in the center of the zone. Drilling along the eastern margin continued to extend gold mineralization both along strike and down dip with significant gold intercepts in holes RC11-2439, RC11-2441 through RC11-2443, and RC11- 2445.2

The 2011 West Big Rock drill program has demonstrated the down dip continuity of gold mineralization in the Zone and all of the 2011 drill intercepts remain open down dip and to the west along strike. Additional drilling in 2012 is anticipated to expand the gold resource at West Big Rock.

2011 Year End Brewery Creek Project Update The Company completed 344 core and RC holes for 55,453 m at Brewery Creek in 2011. Drilling to date has been concentrated on delineating the two 2011 discoveries at the Bohemian-Schooner and Sleeman Zones, with significant additional drilling on the North Slope and Classic Zones.

A NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate for the entire property is anticipated before the end of January. Current year drilling will resume early in the first quarter and will concentrate on further expansion of the Sleeman, Classic and Bohemian Schooner Zones as well as exploration of a number of quality targets resulting from 2011 geochemical and geophysical surveys of the Project area.

The Brewery Creek Project is a past producing heap leach gold mining operation with a total of 278,484 oz Au produced from seven near-surface oxide deposits along the property's Reserve Trend from 1996 through 2002, when the mine (operated by Viceroy Resource Corporation) shut down due to low gold prices. The 200 km2 property is located 55 km due east of Dawson City, accessible by paved and gravel roads from the junction of the North Klondike and Dempster Highways. In May 2011 the Company staked an additional 204 quartz claims east of the historic Brewery Creek property, increasing the Project to a total of 997 quartz claims.

The Project is in receipt of all necessary permits required to conduct additional exploration. The Brewery Creek Project is authorized under a Type A Water License with an expiry date of December 31, 2021, subject to the restrictions and conditions contained in the Yukon Water Act and Regulations. The Project also has a Mining license with an expiry date of December 31, 2021. In addition, a Socio-Economic Accord with Tr'ondek Hwech'in First Nation with respect to the Brewery Creek Project is in place.

Sampling Methodology, Quality Control and Assurance
Samples were fire assayed for gold by ALS Chemex and ACME Laboratories in Vancouver. All assays are reported as drilled intervals and are not to be interpreted as true widths. Refer to the Company’s news release dated October 27, 2011 for a complete discussion of sampling methods, quality control and assurance.
