Extorre Appoints Vice President and Grants Stock Options
Vancouver B.C., March 26, 2010 – Extorre Gold Mines Limited (TSX:
XG) ("Extorre" or the "Company") reports that Mr.
Robert Grey
has been appointed Vice President Corporate Communications.
Separately, Extorre has granted an aggregate of 245,000 stock
options to four directors and two officers, exercisable at a
price of $2.04 for five years.
About Extorre Extorre Gold Mines Limited is a Canadian public
company listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol
"XG".
It is a spin-out entity from Exeter Resource Corporation (
"Exeter") pursuant to a March 11, 2010 shareholder vote to split
Exeter into two independently focussed public companies.
Extorres assets comprise approximately $25 million in cash plus
the Cerro Morro and Don Sixto projects, and all other Exeter
exploration properties in Argentina.
Exeter retained all assets
relating to the Caspiche gold-copper discovery in Chile,
together with approximately $45 million in working capital.
Extorre will initially apply for listing on the OTCQX exchange.
That listing will be followed by an application to list on the
NYSE-Amex.
Listing is subject to Extorre receiving exchange
acceptances of its listing application.
The Cerro Moro Project in Santa Cruz Province, Argentina is
currently 100% owned by Extorre.
The Santa Cruz Government
mining company, Fomicruz S.E.
is entitled to a 5% participating
interest on completion of mine permitting.
In July, 2009, a NI
43-101 compliant inferred mineral resource estimate was
announced for drilling completed to the end of 2008.
The
estimate comprised 646,000 ounces gold equivalent at a grade of
18 g/t gold equivalent*, or 0.5 oz/ton gold equivalent*.
Results
from 105 in-fill drill holes are awaited, to be followed in
April by a new resource estimate.
Matthew Williams, Extorres Exploration Manager considered a
"qualified person" within the definition of that term in National
Instrument 43-101, Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects,
has supervised the preparation of the technical information
contained in this news release.

Cautionary Note to United States Investors - The information
contained herein and incorporated by reference herein has been
prepared in accordance with the requirements of Canadian
securities laws, which differ from the requirements of United
States securities laws.
In particular, the term "resource" does
not equate to the term "reserve".
The Securities Exchange
Commissions (the "SEC") disclosure standards normally do not
permit the inclusion of information concerning "measured mineral
resources", "indicated mineral resources" or "inferred mineral
resources" or other descriptions of the amount of mineralization
in mineral deposits that do not constitute "reserves" by U.S.,
unless such information is required to be disclosed by the law
of the Companys jurisdiction of incorporation or of a
jurisdiction in which its securities are traded.
U.S.
investors
should also understand that "inferred mineral resources" have a
great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and great
uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility.
Disclosure of "contained ounces" is permitted disclosure under
Canadian regulations; however, the SEC normally only permits
issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute
"reserves" by SEC standards as in place tonnage and grade without
reference to unit measures.
