Bellhaven Copper & Gold Inc. (TSX VENTURE:BHV) ("Bellhaven" or the "Company") is
pleased to announce corporate changes and to unveil strategic plans for the
upcoming months. The Board of Directors has made the following corporate
changes: Mr. Julio Benedetti, current President and one of the largest
individual shareholders, has been named Chairman of the Board and CEO. Mrs.
Milagros Paredes, current COO and CFO, has been designated President and COO.
The Board of Directors has instructed management to immediately initiate the
search for a new CFO. Dr. Paul Zweng, a former CEO of the Company and whose fund
is one of its largest shareholders, has agreed to serve in a very active
consultancy/advisory role. 


The executive management team is meeting this week for a two-day strategy
session led by Dr. Zweng to design jointly the new Bellhaven strategy, the
details of which will be announced during the week of April 8th. Although the
new strategy will not be fully designed until later this week, it can be stated
now that we intend to move forward with an aggressive exploration and mine
development program for the Company's 100%-owned La Mina porphyry gold-copper
project. Comprehensive metallurgical studies, together with other new mine
studies, will commence immediately and will provide the basis for an upcoming
preliminary economic assessment. Actions are now being taken to move forward
posthaste the start of the drilling program at La Garrucha. For the first time,
Bellhaven will be able to drill the center of this large anomaly now that it has
secured an option agreement for 100% control of the La Garrucha gold-copper
prospect (see news release of March 26, 2013). In the past Bellhaven could only
drill on the margins of the anomaly where drill-hole intercepts ended in greater
than 1 g/t Au grades (e.g., final 3.31m of drill-hole LME-1047 averaged 1.01 g/t
Au and 0.24% Cu, or 1.42 g/t Au equivalent and LME-1096 ended in nearly 11m of
1.10 g/t Au and 0.20% Cu or 1.40 g/t Au Equivalent.)


The Company will undertake new and significant efforts to reach out to
shareholders and the investment community as part of this new path forward. The
Company understands that large tonnage porphyry deposits such as La Mina may be
currently out of favor in the market. But Bellhaven also understands that La
Mina stands at the top end of the peer group (1 g/t AuEq) and believes in the
potential for La Mina to generate attractive financial returns. The Company
looks forward to actively and persistently presenting this theme to the
investment community over the coming months.


Julio Benedetti, Bellhaven's CEO and Chairman, commented as follows:

"We have made changes at the corporate level to pave the way for these new
strategic initiatives. We believe these changes are welcomed at a time when
Bellhaven shareholders are being heavily punished in the stock market. We also
intend to strengthen the Board of Directors as well as make any necessary future
changes at the management level to advance the Company's flagship project. With
2.6 million Au Equivalent oz in the ground and counting, the Company has the
assets to be a success--now is the time for Bellhaven to deliver on that
promise."
