Coral Announces Initial Results From Spring Drill Program

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - June 6, 2012) - Coral Gold Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:CLH)(OTCBB:CLHRF)(FRANKFURT:GV8)(BERLIN:GV8) ("Coral" or "The Company") is pleased to announce results from the first two holes of its spring 2012 drill program at its Robertson property in Crescent Valley, Nevada, USA.

As stated in the April 16, 2012 news release, Coral was permitted to drill 13 holes on the Porphyry gold zone in 2012. The program consisted of diamond core holes that twinning existing Amax Gold Inc. ("Amax") RC holes (circa 1990 - 1996) and provide core for leach tests at McClelland Laboratories Inc. ("McClelland Labs") in Reno, Nevada. The holes were part of the Phase 1 drill program as proposed in the January 2012 Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") (see January 18th news release) and were designed to verify Amax's historic drilling data, to confirm with certainty the data is correct, and to upgrade the level of confidence in resources contained in the oxidized zones. The Phase 1 drill program represents Coral's first step towards pre-feasibility as defined by the PEA.

Holes CC12-2 and -3 were the first holes received from ALS Minerals ("ALS"); both had significantly higher gold values than the corresponding twinned Amax RC holes. The results are as follows, historic values from the Amax holes are also included.

Coral would like to drill a further 27 core holes as recommended by the PEA in 2012, however, the Bureau of Land Management ("BLM") has decided "based on a review of the case file and information received, BLM will not approve a minor modification allowing more disturbance or additional drilling on pre-existing disturbance for the Robertson Project. BLM will defer authorizing any additional disturbance on the project until the current APO and NEPA review are complete". The final plant and animal reports will be completed in August and represent the final components of the review. For more detail please see the news release dated May 31 2012 at http://www.coralgold.com/s/NewsReleases.asp?ReportID=528160&_Type=News-Releases&_Title=CORAL-COMPLETES-SPRING-DRILLING-AT-ROBERTSON.

The drill program is under supervision of Robert McCusker, a consulting geologist who is a qualified person as defined by NI 43-101.

Core was bagged at Coral's core logging facility in Crescent Valley and collected by ALS. It is crushed in Elko, Nevada, and a sample is split out for assay by ALS; the reject or remaining material will be shipped to McClelland Labs in Reno for metallurgical test work.

Coral, incorporated in 1981, continues to explore and develop the Robertson property located along the Battle Mountain Cortez Gold trend in north central Nevada. Through independent exploration and previous joint venture partnerships with Amax and Placer Dome, Coral has established an NI-43-101 inferred gold resource of 3.4 million ounces (2008). Coral is working to increase the level of confidence in the resource by following the recommendations laid out in the PEA report published in February 2012.

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 Commission's (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 SEC standards, unless such information is required to be disclosed by the law of the Company's 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.
