White Tiger Mining Corp. (the "Company" or "White Tiger") (TSX VENTURE: WTC)(FRANKFURT: W0I) is pleased to announce that additional assay results from the Company's phase one, core drilling program on its Marshall Lake Property has been successful in extending the RM Zone 125 metres along strike. The RM zone is just one of numerous zones of interest on the Property.

The Marshall Lake Property is located 30 km west of Nakina, Ontario. Access is by all weather gravel road from Hwy 11 and the main CNR rail line is within 22 km to the south of the Property.

Drill hole GAZN-10-13 and GAZN-10-17 have extended the mineralized zone (as reported in White Tiger's recent news release of November 3, 2010) a further 75 metres to the west and a further 25 metres to the east. This gives the RM Zone a proven strike length of 125 metres. The Company believes that the RM Zone continues towards the historical Lease Zone, which is 200 metres further to the west. Additionally, drill hole GAZN-10-13 opens up the possibility of an eastern extension to the deposit, and as well, the mineralization is still open to depth and to the south.

For the first time, a felsic fragmental unit has been recognized in the south hanging wall rocks that creates a distinctive marker horizon to follow both the stratigraphy and mineralization. IP survey data suggests that the mineralization continues for at least another 325 metres to the west.

A zone of porphyry has also been intersected in drill hole GAZN-10-12, which is situated along the north side of the copper bearing high silica rhyolite horizon.

"Assays continue to confirm that the new RM Zone has values of copper, silver and gold near surface over potentially mineable widths that remain open along strike to the east and west, and as well, down dip. We are now planning a phase two drill program to expand upon the extremely encouraging initial results received to date," says Ronald Coombes, President and CEO of White Tiger Mining Corp.

Drill Hole Summary

Drill hole GAZN-10-13; a 25 metre eastern step out from the 2008 drill hole, GAZN-08-06, and a 50 metre eastern step out from the recently completed drill holes GAZN-10-10, GAZN-10-11 and GAZN-10-15 (see news release dated November 3, 2010). Drill hole GAZN-10-13 intersected a wide section of high silica rhyolite with chalcopyrite with two prominent zones which assayed 0.43% Cu, 1.77g/t Ag and 0.07g/t Au over 14 metres and 0.44% Cu, 2.48g/t Ag and 0.24g/t Au over 31.5 metres. These zones contained some promising intersections, including a 0.5 metre sample of 3.35% Cu and 20.0g/t Ag and a 1 metre sample containing 5.21g/t Au.

Drill hole GAZN-10-17; a 75 metre western step out from previously released drill hole GAZN-10-15 intersected a 37 metre wide zone of high silica rhyolite containing wide spread chalcopyrite and a footwall chloritic alteration zone with higher concentrations of chalcopyrite. The mineralization and lithology encountered is identical to the zones found in drill holes GAZN-10-10, GAZN-10-11 and GAZN-10-15, located in section, 75 metres to the east, as well as in the historical drill holes GAZN-07-02 and GAZN-08-06, located 100 metres to the east of drill hole GAZN-10-17. Assays from drill hole GAZN-10-17 yielded 0.48% Cu, 2.07g/t Ag and 0.04g/t Au over 37 metres, including 1.12% Cu, 5.87g/t Ag and 0.13g/t Au over 7.2 metres.

The assay results for drill holes GAZN-10-13 and GAZN-10-17 are as follows:

Additional assay results from the Company's phase one drill program are still pending and are expected to be released in the upcoming weeks.

Drill core was split at a secure facility in Thunder Bay, Ontario and sample preparation was done by ALS Chemex in Thunder Bay, Ontario. Pulp samples (less than 75 microns) were then sent by secure courier to ALS Chemex in North Vancouver, British Columbia and analyzed by ICP spectrometer("ICP") using a 0.5g representative pulp dissolved in Aqua Regia (3 acid) digestion. All samples grading over 1.0% Cu were re-assayed with ore grade ICP and Aqua Regia digestion. Gold analysis was done by fire assay with AA ("Atomic Absorption") finish.

White Tiger has the option to earn a 50% interest in the Marshall Lake Property project from Rainy Mountain Royalty Corporation ("RMO") and Marshall Lake Mining PLC ("MLM") by spending $4 million in exploration expenditures over 5 years and issuing 2 million shares over 4 years to RMO. As well, White Tiger has the additional option to increase its interest to 75% by incurring such additional expenditures as are necessary to take the project to bankable feasibility stage.

This news release has been reviewed and approved by Robert Middleton, P.Eng., who is acting as Qualified Person for the Company's Marshall Lake Property project in accordance with regulations under NI 43-101.
