Premier Royalty Agrees to Acquire Golden Arrow's 1% NSR on Yamana Gold Inc.'s Gualcamayo Gold mine

Golden Arrow Resources Corporation (TSX-V: GRG, FSE: GAC (WKN: A0B6XQ), "Golden Arrow" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the signing of a definitive purchase agreement (the "Agreement") regarding the sale by Golden Arrow and purchase by Premier Gold Mines Limited (PG:TSX, "Premier Gold") through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Premier Royalty Corporation ("Premier Royalty"), of a 1% NSR on Yamana Gold Inc.'s Gualcamayo Gold mine (the "Royalty"). Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, Premier Royalty has agreed to purchase the Royalty in consideration for $16,500,000 in cash and warrants to purchase an aggregate of up to 1 million shares of Premier Royalty at an exercise price per share equal to 120% of the IPO or "go public" price for a period of two (2) years after the date of issue of the warrants (the "expiry date"). Golden Arrow will have the right (the "Put Right") on 30 days notice to require Premier Royalty to acquire all warrants outstanding at that time for cancellation for a purchase price of $1.25 per warrant at any time prior to the expiry date for a total of $1,250,000 if all warrants are put to Premier Royalty. Premier Gold has agreed to guarantee Premier Royalty's obligations under the Agreement, including the payment obligation upon Golden Arrow's exercise of the Put Right.

The completion of the transaction is expected to occur in the third quarter of 2012 and remains subject to closing conditions typical for a transaction of this nature, the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange, and the approval by two-thirds of the votes cast by shareholders of Golden Arrow at a special meeting to be held on July 23, 2012.

Joseph Grosso, President & CEO of Golden Arrow stated that "with the price of gold near all-time highs, the timing is right for Golden Arrow to capitalize on its royalty, which stems from management's role in the discovery of the Gualcamayo Gold mine in 1998. While the royalty provided the Company with steady cash flow, the amount was too limited to materially grow Golden Arrow. The fund proceeds will be used to seek and acquire undervalued advanced assets that the market is currently discounting. This strategy, together with the Company's active joint-venture program, can provide exceptional opportunities in a distressed market to leverage value for all of Golden Arrow's shareholders."

Canaccord Genuity acted as financial advisor to Golden Arrow.
