<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Fred Earnest, President and COO of Vista, stated, &#147;We believe that this is an important and positive step forward in our development of the Mt. Todd gold project.&#160; Four months ago we demonstrated the technical and economic viability of this project with a preliminary feasibility study that was constrained by the project&#146;s existing tailings storage capacity of 60 million tonnes.&#160; By utilizing the remaining capacity in the project&#146;s existing tailings storage facility and deferring the capital for additional tailings storage capacity until later in the project&#146;s life, we have been able to increase the size of the proposed process facility to a more economic level of 30,000 tonnes per day and increase the projected annual production to 250,000 ounces per year over the first five years of the project.&#160; Based on these positive results, we have now commenced a feasibility study for t
he Mt. Todd gold project that we expect to complete in the latter part of the 2011.&#160; As part of the feasibility study program, we will undertake studies to further optimize the proposed operation, evaluate opportunities to reduce estimated capital costs and enhance project returns.&#160; Advancing Mt. Todd will be our priority in 2011 and we have committed the resources to accomplish this.&#160; In the coming months we expect to hire key project personnel and establish a visible presence in the Northern Territory, appropriate to the stage of development.&#148;</font></p>

Todd. Today, the estimated cash flow generated by the potential development of the project, net of all costs and investments is approximately $1.9 billion at current gold prices.&#160; As we advance the project through bankable feasibility and commence environmental permitting in this mining-friendly area, we expect this increase in project value to be better reflected in the Company&#146;s valuation.&#148;</font></p>

Todd gold project mine site is located 230 km southeast of the port of Darwin and 56 km by road north-northeast of the regional center of Katherine. Katherine and Darwin are connected by a railroad and the Stuart Highway. An existing paved road connects the mine site to the Stuart Highway.

Ore will be mined in four pit development phases over a period of 14 years. Waste rock will either be placed in a single waste dump or used for tailings embankment construction.&#160; Concurrent reclamation is planned for the lower benches of the dump.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The PFS incorporates the results of Vista&#146;s analysis of previous operators&#146; experience and extensive metallurgical testing undertaken by Vista in the last three years.&#160; The proposed larger processing facility utilizes the same process flowsheet developed for the PFS announced on August&nbsp;30, 2010 and specifically addresses the following key issues:</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt .5in;text-indent:-.25in;"><font size="2" face="Symbol" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&#183;</font><font size="1" style="font-size:3.0pt;">&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; </font><font size="2" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Ore hardness &#151; Vista tested and determined the expected ore hardness and&nbsp;then evaluated various combinations of equipment. The best combination of equipment involved primary and secondary crushing, tertiary crushing employing high pressure grinding rolls (HPGR) followed by a large ball mill. The use of HPGR is expected to result in a product which significantly improves the efficiency of the grinding circuit. The circuit is very simple with a large primary gyratory crusher, a secondary cone crusher, a single HPGR unit and a single ball mill.<b>  </b>HPGR technology is currently being successfully used by Newmont Mining Corporation, at Australia&#146;s largest gold mine, the 20 million o
unce Boddington mine in Western Australia<b>.</b></font></p>

In the mineralogical review it became apparent that the form of the copper minerals changes with depth. In the upper part of the orebody, which was mostly mined out by previous operators, the copper existed predominantly in cyanide soluble secondary copper minerals such as chalcocite, bornite and covellite. In the remaining orebody, copper exists mainly as primary copper minerals like chalcopyrite which are gen
erally not cyanide soluble. The tests Vista undertook on representative samples of the ore to be mined showed that leaching combined with a carbon-in-pulp recovery circuit yields recoveries of 82% with acceptable levels of cyanide consumption.</font></p>

The power plant is designed to have excess capacity to meet higher loads during large equipment starting up.&#160; Excess power during operations will be sold into the grid further reducing expected costs.&#160; During the post-closure period, Vista intends to continue operating the natural gas turbine power generating</font></p>

Todd gold project. Based on reviews of historic activities and field work carried out during the 2009 field season numerous targets for potential new discoveries have been identified.&#160; In the fall of 2010, prior to the start of the wet season, Vista undertook a very limited exploration program on one of four previously announced exploration targets.&#160; The Company completed four diamond core holes on the Golden Eye target (previously called the MSTS-4 target).&#160; All four holes encountered strong sulfide mineralization associated with banded iron formation with interesting concentrations of copper, lead and zinc.&#160; Hole GE10-003 encountered one interval of 1.1 meters averaging 7.69 grams per tonne gold (&#147;g/t Au&#148;), including 0.3 meters of 26.7 g/t Au.&#160; The core was log
ged, photographed, and sampled by employees of Vista Gold Australia under the direction of Vista&#146;s Vice President of Exploration, Mr.&nbsp;Frank K. Fenne P.G., who is a Qualified Person within the meaning of NI 43-101.&#160; Core was assayed by Northern Australia Laboratories Pty Ltd of Pine Creek, Northern Territory.
