Riverstone Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:RVS)(OTCQX:RVREF)(FRANKFURT:3RV)
("Riverstone" or the "Company") is pleased to report results from ten diamond
drill holes on the 100% owned Goulagou I Deposit ("GGI"), which forms part of
the Company's flagship Karma Gold Project in Burkina Faso, West Africa. These
holes are part of a program of core drilling designed to confirm and extend the
known GGI Deposit mineralization at depth and along strike, and upgrade the
inferred resources to the indicated category (see Map on Website for the
location of the holes:
http://www.riverstoneresources.com/i/pdf/120320DDH-100504_GGI_Plan.pdf).
Significant assay intervals in these core holes are as follows:
-- 1.73 g/t Au over 110 m (including 2.04 g/t Au over 66 m) in DD-017
-- 1.68 g/t Au over 80 m (including 2.18 g/t Au over 18 m) in DD-018
-- 1.83 g/t Au over 66 m (including 2.39 g/t Au over 32 m) in DD-016
-- 2.50 g/t Au over 42 m in DD-024
-- 1.23 g/t Au over 24 m in DD-021
These wide mineralized intersections are the only drill holes testing these
depths over a strike length of a minimum of 200 metres. Mineralization at GGI
has now been extended to over 2,000 metres east-west and as much as 200 metres
down-dip in areas of deeper drilling. The deposit remains open along strike in
both directions and as well as to depth.
"We are extremely pleased with these wide zones of above average gold grade
intersections from numerous drill holes at GGI," commented Dwayne L. Melrose,
President and COO of Riverstone. "These results show that our drilling has been
successful in extending the deposit to depth and has the potential of becoming a
consistent wide mineralized zone, and will allow for up-grading of the resource
model. Follow-up holes have been drilled below several of the reported
intercepts; assays are pending for these holes."

The 100% owned GGI Deposit is part of the Company's Karma Project which
comprises a NI 43-101 compliant in-pit Whittle gold indicated gold resource of
1.6 million ounces of gold in 47.3 million tonnes grading 1.1 g/t gold and an
inferred gold resource of 0.6 million ounces of gold in 18.9 million tonnes
grading 0.93 g/t gold (see news release dated January 9, 2012 and NI 43-101
technical report titled, "Technical Report and Resource Estimate on the Karma
Project, Burkina Faso, West Africa" filed on SEDAR (www.sedar.com), February 23,
2012). Since the data cut-off for the resource estimation, the Company has
completed in excess of an additional 52,000 metres of drilling on the Karma
Project, and it is expected that the results of this drilling will add to the
overall resource of the five Karma Project deposits.
Riverstone maintains a quality control program involving the use of repeat
assays, inserted blanks and the use of certified standards from an accredited
Canadian laboratory. All core samples were assayed using standard fire assay
with atomic absorption techniques, with samples grading over one gram gold per
tonne re-assayed with a gravimetric finish, at the independent Abilab Burkina
SARL laboratories in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, which is part of the ALS Chemex
group.
Riverstone is active in gold exploration in Burkina Faso, West Africa, where it
holds a portfolio of four high quality exploration projects covering in excess
of 2,000 square kilometres. Additional information about the Company and its
activities may be found on the Company's website at www.riverstoneresources.com

the updated resources estimate, the assumptions set forth in this news release
and in the Company's news release of January 9, 2012, and risks and
uncertainties relating to the interpretation of drill results and the estimation
of mineral resources, the geology, grade and continuity of mineral deposits, the
possibility that future exploration, development results will not be consistent

undiscovered, title defects and surface access, labour disputes, the potential
for delays in exploration activities, the potential for unexpected costs and
expenses, commodity price fluctuations, currency fluctuations, and other risks
and uncertainties, including those described under Risk Factors in each
management discussion and analysis and in the Company's annual information form
which are available under the Company's profile at www.sedar.com.
Forward-looking information is based on various assumptions including, without
limitation, the expectations and beliefs of management, the assumed long term
price of gold, that the Company will receive required permits and access to
surface rights, that the Company can access financing, appropriate equipment and
sufficient labour and that the political environment within Burkina Faso will
continue to support the development of environmentally safe mining projects.
Should one or more of these risks and uncertainties materialize, or should
underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from
those described in forward-looking statements. Accordingly, readers are advised
