Fronteer Master ____________________________________________________________ Follow the link below to view it online:: http://www.industrymailout.com/Industry/View.aspx?id=208927&q=213035614&qz=b7f42d --------------- Drilling returns 16.4 g/t gold over 21.2 metres at Long Canyon, Nevada 10-19 Fronteer Gold (FRG - TSX/NYSE-Amex) announces that drilling has extended gold mineralization 100 metres to the northeast and intersected a new mineralized zone at Long Canyon, one of the companys key development projects in Nevada.

The results are the first from the current $19.8 million development and exploration program at Long Canyon, where five drill rigs are currently turning on the property.

New drilling in the vicinity of last years most northerly step-out holes has returned the following broad intervals of high-grade oxide gold: - 16.4 grams per tonne gold (0.479 ounces per ton) over 21.2 metres, including 39.2 g/t (1.146 oz/ton) over 5.8 metres in LC435C. - 6.47 g/t (0.189 oz/ton) over 22.3 metres, including 15.39 g/t (0.449 oz/ton) over 4.9 metres in LC450C. - 3.79 g/t (0.111 oz/ton) over 46.6 metres in LC453C.

Of note, LC453C extends mineralization 100 metres to the northeast, attesting to the strength and persistence of this gold system.

Drilling has also identified a new, parallel gold zone in the northeastern part of the deposit, which returned: - 2.67 g/t (0.078 oz/ton) over 53.4 metres in LC446. - 6.39 g/t (0.187 oz/ton) over 47.3 metres, including 24.84 g/t (0.725 oz/ton) over 7.6 metres in LC451.

The development and exploration program will comprise at least 45,000 metres of drilling, with an emphasis on resource definition and resource expansion, primarily in the northern half of the deposit.

Fronteer Gold also plans to complete in 2010 the required metallurgical, engineering, and environmental work necessary to move Long Canyon to pre-feasibility stage.

Fronteer Gold recently reported an updated resource estimate for Long Canyon, based on 2009 drilling (See May 19, 2010 press release).

Using a 0.30 g/t gold cutoff, the new resource estimate shows an 81% increase in M&I ounces and a 17% increase in Inferred ounces compared to the 2009 resource.

The substantial increase in M&I ounces is attributable to the 2009 work-programs focus on infill core drilling as Fronteer seeks to transition Long Canyon from exploration to development stage.
