RSM Resouro Strategic Metals Inc

Gold Standard Ventures Corp. (TSX VENTURE:GSV)(NYSE MKT:GSV)(NYSE Amex:GSV)
("Gold Standard" or the "Company") (www.goldstandardv.com) today released
additional information on the leases (the "Leases") entered into with various
land holders encompassing approximately 4,128 net mineral acres of land adjacent
to the Company's flagship Railroad gold project in Elko County, Nevada.
Acquisition of these Leases was originally announced by Gold Standard in its
news release of March 28, 2012.


The Leases grant Gold Standard the exclusive right to explore, mine and develop
varying percentage holdings in portions of what the company calls the 'South
Railroad Project' which includes the Pinon District immediately south of the
Railroad District. The Leases grant Gold Standard control of approximately 32%
of strategic sections in the Pinon district which the Company estimates give it
control of approximately 32% of the historic South Bullion and Trout Creek
deposits. Together, these occurrences are known as the Pinon deposit and
considerable geologic and exploration data exist for them in recognized
peer-reviewed publications. The remaining interests in these lands are held by
others including Manhattan Mining Company ("MMC") on behalf of Royal Standard
Minerals Inc. ("RSM").


For the Trout Creek Deposit, a paper entitled "Geology of the Trout Creek
Disseminated Gold Deposit, Elko Co. Nevada" authored by Phillip Jackson and
Joseph Ruetz and published in Geology and Ore Deposits of the Great Basin (GSN,
1991. pp.729-734) states that "preliminary geologic reserves are estimated at
150,000 contained ounces of gold and mineralization is open-ended. Gold and
silver ratio is about 1:8." Another paper from the same volume entitled "Geology
and Mineralization at the South Bullion Deposit, Pinion Range, Elko Co., Nevada:
Implications for Western United States Cenozoic Tectonics" authored by Borden
Putnam and Edmund Henriques (pp.713-728) states that "Newmont Exploration Ltd
has identified a drill inferred geologic resource exceeding 20 million tons at
an average grade of 0.026 oz/st Au, based on 0.01oz/st cutoff, 20 foot minimum
bench, and a density of 13 cubic feet per short ton, for a total of 520,000
contained ounces."


Gold Standard cautions that these historic resource and reserve estimates were
derived from data assembled prior to the introduction of National Instrument
43-101. The Company notes that, to its knowledge, a Qualified Person has not
completed sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as mineral
resources or reserves under National Instrument 43-101 and the available data
may not meet the standards required to support such a classification. Gold
Standard Ventures is therefore not reporting these historical estimates as
current mineral resources or reserves.


Dave Mathewson, Gold Standard`s Vice-President of Exploration, noted that
"almost all the mineralized material is oxidized. The alteration and character
of the gold mineralization is similar to the Emigrant sediment-hosted gold
deposit that Newmont is currently putting into production. In our view, there is
potential to expand the known mineralization."


Gold Standard President and CEO Jonathan Awde stated that "as matters now stand,
development of Pinon will have to be undertaken jointly by its owners. We look
forward to achieving a mutually beneficial arrangement for all parties to
advance the Pinon deposit." 


As previously reported the provisions for all of the Leases are substantially
the same and provide for a primary term of 10 years but will continue thereafter
as long as commercial mining operations are being conducted on the lands. Each
Lease is subject to a small upfront signing bonus and annual advance minimum
royalty ("AMR") payments of US$17.50 per acre in the first and second years,
increasing to US$28.00 per acre in the seventh year and thereafter, of which
approximately US$125,235.71 has been paid to date. The Leases are also subject
to a production royalty of 5% of net smelter returns (payable in proportion to
the interest held), against which the AMR payments shall be credited and
recouped up to 80%.


GSV now controls approximately 19,764 net mineral acres associated with its
Railroad Project.


The scientific and technical content and interpretations contained in this news
release have been reviewed, verified and approved by Steven R. Koehler, Gold
Standard's Manager of Projects, BSc. Geology and CPG-10216, a Qualified Person
as defined by NI 43-101, Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.
