NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE U.S.

Frontline Gold Corporation (TSX VENTURE:FGC) (“Frontline” or the “Company”) announces that it has purchased the outstanding 10% ownership of its Turkish subsidiary, FrontlineGold Madencilik San. Ve Tic. Ltd. Şti, from Aegean Gold Madencilik Ltd. Sti. (“Aegean Gold”). Aegean Gold, through its partners, had assisted the Company with the sourcing and acquisition of its permits in Turkey. Frontline now owns 100% of the Turkish assets, including the Menderes project. Frontline will issue 1,500,000 shares of the Company to Aegean Gold, at a deemed value of C$0.03 per share, subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval and final documentation.

Frontline’s Menderes project, located in Izmir province, western Turkey and located only 20 km from the provincial capital of Izmir, consists of 62 km2 in a high potential epithermal gold environment. The exploration focus of Menderes is the eastern strike extension of Eldorado Gold Corporation’s Efemcukuru gold mine, which began operation in mid-2011.

Update

As highlighted in the Company’s November 8, 2012 press release, Frontline continues to engage in active discussions with several interested parties in an effort to monetize its interest in the Menderes project.

Finally, early stage prospecting and review of compilation work of properties in Turkey continues with the objective of adding to Frontline’s Turkish portfolio.
