"PARKSIDE RESOURCES REPORTS STRONG RESULTS FROM ITS INAUGURAL DRILL PROGRAM ON
ITS FORESTER LAKE GOLD PROPERTY


NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO THE UNITED STATES (US) NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR
DISSEMINATION IN THE US


July 24, 2013, Toronto, ON - Parkside Resources Corp. (TSX VENTURE:PKS) (the
"Company") is pleased to announce the results from its recently completed
inaugural drill program on the Forester Lake Gold Property in northwestern
Ontario, 35 km southeast of Goldcorp's Musselwhite Mine. The Company completed
1,200 metres of diamond drilling in nine holes in two prospective areas that
were identified after the compilation of data comprised of 78 historic drill
holes (approx. 8200 metres) with historic grades as high as 16.20 grams of gold
(Au) per tonne over 0.50 metres; recent airborne and ground magnetic survey
data; and, reviewing the wealth of geological and structural knowledge from
Goldcorp's Musselwhite Mine.


All nine holes intersected anomalous gold mineralization with the most
significant intervals being 4.49 grams per tonne (gpt) of Au (gpt Au) over 5.07
metres, including 7.67 gpt Au over 2.85 metres, and 24.93 gpt Au over 0.60
metres in Hole #8 (FOR-13-8) in "Area 1" of the drill program. The results are
the best ever received for any drill program on the Forester Lake Gold Property
with the highest grade interval being 24.93 gpt Au over 0.60 metres and the
widest interval being 5.07 metres grading 4.49 gpt Au. Highlights of the drill
program are provided below:

Drill Area 1, in the central portion of the large 4,352 hectare (10,754 acres)
Forester Lake Gold Property, hosts structurally complex, altered and mineralized
iron formation. Hole FOR-13-7, which had assay results of 2.8 gpt Au over 1.31
metres, was drilled to verify gold mineralization (12.34 gpt Au over 1.53 metres
and 1.13 gpt Au over 1.52 metres) in Power Exploration's 1987 drill program,
NK-87-07. The intersection of the FOR-13-7 hole corresponds closely to Power
Exploration's previous drill intersection.


Hole FOR-13-8 is a newly discovered high-grade gold zone located west of Hole
FOR-13-7, and was drilled to test the western extension of an apparent fold in
the iron formation. The mineralization in FOR-13-8 is hosted in a banded-iron
formation, is strongly silicified, and is characterized by arsenopyrite, pyrite,
and 5-10% pyrrhotite. Minor quartz veining is also apparent.


Donald Goldman, President and CEO of Parkside Resources Corporation, commented
"We are very pleased with the results of Parkside's inaugural drill program. The
strong results confirm our belief in the viability of the Forester Lake Gold
Property to delineate an economic gold deposit and in the ability of Benton
Resources Inc., our Option and Joint Venture Agreement partner, to identify and
source out a highly prospective gold property." He further commented that
results from "Drill Area #1, and in particular Hole FOR-13-8, definitely justify
several follow up holes to test the overall structure of the iron formation and
the continuity and extension of the gold mineralization, both along strike to
the northwest and southeast, and at depth." 


Analysis will commence immediately to develop the next exploration program on
the Forester Lake Gold Property.


Parkside Resources Corporation has implemented a QA/QC protocol for its
exploration work. The NQ core was delivered to its secure core shack facility in
Thunder Bay, Ontario. Generally, the core was marked in 1.0 metre intervals for
splitting, sampling and assaying, unless geological data indicated a shorter
sample interval. Prior to splitting, all core was photographed. Core sampling
was completed using an electric core saw with a diamond impregnated blade with
half of the drill core being delivered to Accurassay Laboratories in Thunder
Bay, Ontario. Accurassay Laboratories is an ISO 17025 accredited laboratory. The
remainder of the core has been stored at the core shack.


The geological information reported has been reviewed and approved by Garry
Clark P.Geo., of Clark Exploration Consulting, consulting geologist for Parkside
Resources Corporation, who is a qualified person under the definitions
established by National Instrument 43-101.
