StrataGold Increases Gold Resource at Dublin Gulch, Yukon

Vancouver, Canada (ots/PRNewswire)

StrataGold Corporation (TSX:
SGV) is pleased to announce that a new independent resource estimate
by Wardrop Engineering Incorporated has increased the indicated gold
resource of the Eagle Zone at Dublin Gulch, Yukon by over 18% for a
total of 1,960,000 indicated ounces of gold and 371,000 inferred
ounces of gold (at a 0.5 g/t gold cut off).
    Eagle Zone, Dublin Gulch - Indicated and Inferred Resources
    Indicated Resource
    Gold cut off grade        Tonnes        Gold grade       Contained gold
          (g/t)                               (g/t)           (troy ounces)

          (g/t)                               (g/t)           (troy ounces)
          0.50              14,390,000        0.803              371,000
Notes
1. Tonnes and troy ounces of gold have been rounded to the nearest
thousand.
2. Gold resources reported above have been calculated as of
February 21, 2006 in accordance with the standards of the Canadian
Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum and guidelines of
National Instrument 43-101.
3. Indicated classification: two drill holes within a 60x60x60
meter search and one of these drill holes within 30 metres or four
drill holes within 60x60x10 meter search.
4. Inferred classification: beyond indicated resource and two
drill holes within 100x100x100 meters and one of these drill holes
within 60 meters or beyond indicated resource and one drill hole
within 30x30x20 meters.
5. Gold capped at 10.5 g/t gold.
6. Troy ounce (equal sign) 31.103 grams gold.
7. Not all tonnage would be recovered in mining, nor would all
gold be recovered in processing.
In completing the National Instrument 43-101 compliant resource
estimate, Wardrop Engineering reviewed the information collected from
the 2005 exploration program including 34 diamond drill holes
totalling 8,105 metres and historical information from 275 reverse
circulation and diamond drill holes. Databases were verified,
classical statistics were evaluated and variography was undertaken.
The new resource was estimated by three interpolation methods:
nearest neighbour, inverse distance squared and ordinary Kriging of a
3D block model, with gold capped at 10.5 g/t. No significant
discrepancies exist between the methods and ordinary kriging was used
for the resource tabulation. Bulk density samples taken from the 1995
and 1996 drilling appear to be consistent with expected values for
intrusive and metasedimentary rock types and were assigned for each
block, and resources were classified and reported following model
valuation.
The mineral resources stated in this news release are not mineral
reserves and, in the absence of a current feasibility study, do not
demonstrate economic viability. The determination of mineral reserves
can be affected by various factors including environmental,
permitting, legal and title issues. StrataGold is not aware of any
current substantive issues that would materially affect any resource
estimate of the Eagle Zone, which was the subject of a 1997
feasibility study, or other gold deposits in the Dublin Gulch area. A
technical report supporting these resource estimates will be filed on
SEDAR within 45 days, as required.
The 2005 exploration program was overseen by Qualified Person Jim
Sparling P.Geo., Manager, Exploration North and Central America for
StrataGold Corporation. Onsite direction for the Dublin Gulch Project
was by Qualified Person Dave Hladky, P. Geo., Senior Project
Geologist, StrataGold Corporation. It should be noted that StrataGold
Corporation has an internal quality assurance and quality control
(QA/QC) protocol that included the insertion of Blank, Standard and
Duplicate assay samples with each batch of 20 assays submitted to ALS
Chemex Labs in Vancouver, BC. ALS Chemex is recognised as an ISO
9001:2000 accredited laboratory. As well, two Preparation
Duplicate/Check Assays were prepared during milling at the ALS Chemex
Lab with one of these submitted to ACME Analytical Labs once in every
20 samples Gold analysis was done by Fire Assay and AAS with trace Hg
via cold vapour/AAS and included a 27 element four acid ICP-AES
(ALS-Chemex). Additionally 12 Blank and 1 Standard sample were sent
to each of 3 independent ISO 9001:2000 accredited labs to test for
consistency and to verify that no gold was present in the Blank
material.
Independent Qualified Persons Rob Carter, P.Eng. of Wardrop
Engineering Incorporated of Toronto, Greg Mosher, P.Geo. of Wardrop
Engineering Incorporated of Vancouver, BC, Canada and Qualified
Person Mr. Jim Sparling, P.Geo., Manager, Exploration North and
Central America for StrataGold Corporation have reviewed and approved
the contents of this press release.

Forward Looking Information:
This release includes certain statements that may be deemed
"forward- looking statements". All statements in this release, other
than statements of historical facts, that address future production,
reserve or resource potential, exploration drilling, exploitation
activities and events or developments that StrataGold expects to
occur, are forward-looking statements. Although StrataGold believes
the expectations expressed in such forward- looking statements are
based on reasonable assumptions, such statements are not guarantees
of future performance and actual results or developments may differ
materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Factors that
could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward
looking statements include market prices, exploitation and
exploration successes, and continued availability of capital and
financing and general economic, market or business conditions.
Investors are cautioned that any such statements are not guarantees
of future performance and actual results or developments may differ
materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements.
StrataGold does not assume any obligation to update or revise its

Information Concerning Estimates of Mineral Resources:
This news release uses the terms "inferred resources", "indicated
resources" and "mineral resources". StrataGold advises investors that
although these terms are recognised and required by Canadian
securities regulations (under National Instrument 43-101 "Standards
of Disclosure for Mineral Projects"), the US Securities and Exchange
Commission does not recognise these terms. Investors are cautioned
not to assume that any part or all of the mineral deposits in these
categories will ever be converted into reserves. In addition,
"inferred resources" have a great amount of uncertainty as to their
existence, and economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed
that all or any part of an Inferred Mineral Resource will ever be
upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of
Inferred Mineral Resources may not form the basis of feasibility or
pre-feasibility studies, or economic studies except for a Preliminary
Assessment as defined under NI 43-101. Investors are cautioned not to
assume that part or all of an inferred resource exists, or is
economically or legally mineable.
