Reunion Gold Corporation announces signing of Mineral Agreement in Guyana
March 28, 2011.

Reunion Gold Corporation (TSXV: RGD) ("Reunion" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that its wholly owned Guyanese subsidiary, Reunion Manganese Inc., has concluded a Mineral Agreement with the Cooperative Republic of Guyana.

This is a comprehensive agreement which sets out the fiscal terms and conditions for the exploration, development and mining at the Matthews Ridge manganese project located in the northwest district of Guyana.

Significant among the terms are: a royalty of 1.5% on gross manganese revenue and a flat corporate tax rate of 30%.

It also sets out the terms under which a mining licence can be granted. The Mineral Agreement signals the commitment of the Government of Guyana to the development of its natural resources.

The agreement is an important milestone for the Company as it can now advance its exploration and development programs under clear and stable operating conditions. In September 2010, Reunion Manganese Inc.

obtained four prospecting licenses to conduct exploration and development for manganese in the North West District of Guyana over an area of 45,729 acres within and around the former manganese mines at Matthews Ridge and Pipiani, which closed in 1968.

The former Matthews Ridge mine site is located 260 km NW of the capital city of Georgetown.

Pipiani is some 40 km south of Matthews Ridge and north of the Barama River. Reunion has been executing a trenching program at the former mine to outline and confirm continuity of mineralization, and is ready to initiate an aggressive 24,000m drilling program comprising 220 holes with the objectives of confirming the historic mineral resources within the trenched zone and define a NI 43-101 compliant mineral resource within, alongside and beneath all existing mined areas.

The Company has also initiated metallurgical testing of all mineral-types to define potential manganese product and recovery parameters, with two batches of samples from the trenching program sent to Bateman Engineering in South Africa. James Crombie, President and CEO, said: "Further to the impressive initial results on the trenching program announced on March 1, 2011, the Board of Directors approved an increase in the exploration budget by providing an additional $12 million for work in Guyana for the period to December 2011.

This should allow the Company to attain its exploration and development objectives more rapidly.

The execution of the Mineral Agreement gives us the confidence to pursue these goals."
