Northern Lion Gold Corp. (the "Company" or "Northern Lion") (TSX
VENTURE:NL)(FRANKFURT:N3E) wishes to announce significant gold and copper
results from the rotary drilling program on its' 100% owned Anglesides project
within the Republic of Cyprus.


The Company has received results for seven vertical rotary holes totaling 272.37
metres drilled in the Anglesides project area, and four out of the seven holes
returned significant results, (see table below). These assays represent the
first results from the ongoing reconnaissance rotary drilling program that began
in July 2011. The rotary drill program is designed to follow up on results from
the previous diamond drill program and various soil and surface rock samples.

Three of the holes listed above (ANRD11-02, ANRD11-03 and ANRD11-05) are aligned
in an east west direction covering a strike length of approximately 65 metres.
The most western hole (ANRD11-03) is located on the eastern edge of the known
Anglesides showing. ANRD11-02 was drilled to depth of 38.1 metres, ANRD11-03 had
a depth of 30.48 metres while ANRD11-05 was drilled to 45.72 metres. All three
of these holes ended in gold mineralization, the last sample in hole ANRD11-02
returned 0.14 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold, the last sample in ANRD11-03
returned 0.33 g/t gold and ANRD11-05 returned 0.16 g/t gold.


This zone of interest is near surface and appears to be flat lying. Additional
holes are planned to better define the strike and extent of the mineralized
zone.


The Anglesides project was applied for on the basis of historical information
derived from the ongoing evaluation of data acquired from the Geological Survey
of Cyprus department, and information supplied by the Company's consultants in
Cyprus. A small amount of mining occurred in the 1930's by the Cyprus Mines
Corporation, when it reportedly extracted 88 long tonnes of cuprous pyrite
grading 5.98% copper. At the same time 1,336 short tonnes of auriferous ore were
extracted grading 24.5 g/t gold and 86.4 g/t silver.


Drilling by the Geological Survey Department in 1970 located immediately east of
the main gossans intersected 15.3 metres of 2.3% copper (gold was not
assayed).In 1977, Noranda acquired the project and drilled additional holes and
confirmed these results. Noranda also analyzed a portion of this drillhole for
gold and returned an interval from 7 to 19 metres that assayed 1.44% copper and
4.4 g/t gold. No other gold assays within the historical drilling appear to have
been carried out.


A series of gossanous outcrops occur over an area of 150 by 100 metres within a
northerly trending gulley. The Company completed a series of chip and grab
samples throughout this gulley and received grab samples as high as 50.1 g/t
gold (reported September 15, 2010).


The results continue to support the Company's belief that within the Republic of
Cyprus there is an under-evaluated gold mineralizing system in addition to the
historically known massive sulphide bodies. The rotary drilling program
continues and will test a number of prospective targets.
