Otis Releases Complete Kilgore 2011 Drill Results; Mine Ridge Deposit Continues to Expand

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/12/12 -- Otis Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:OOO)(OTCQX:OGLDF) ("Otis" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has received the final results from the Company's 2011 drill program. The 2011 drill program comprised 41 core holes totaling approximately 9,200 metres. In total, 28 of the 41 holes were mineralized (Table 1). The remaining holes were condemnation holes and serve to delimit the outer boundary of the deposit. An additional 2 holes were drilled as metallurgical test holes. Highlights of the 2011 drill program include:

--  The core of the Mine Ridge deposit has increased by 74%, from 460 metres    to approximately 800 metres in a northwest-southeast direction; --  The Mine Ridge deposit remains totally open to the north, northwest and    southeast, resulting in significant potential for deposit expansion; --  28 of 41 holes intercepted significant mineralization; and --  A discovery hole was drilled in the Prospect Ridge target, located    immediately to the southeast of the Mine Ridge deposit area.

Of the final 10 holes reported, the most significant intercepts are from the Central Block and include hole 11 OKC-288 with 41.1 metres (m) of 0.68 grams per tonne gold (g/t Au), and hole 11 OKC-289 containing two significant intercepts of 22.9 m @ 0.74 g/t Au and 32.0 m @ 0.62 g/t Au. Additional interesting intercepts from the South Block, outside the area of the known resource, were received for holes 11 OKC-270 and 11 OKC-276, along with previously reported intercepts, suggesting that the deposit remains open in a southerly direction. Hole 11 OKC-283, located at the north edge of the drill pattern, contains an almost 100-metre-thick intercept of anomalous gold mineralization and validates the Company's premise that the deposit is completely open toward the northwest along the trace of the Northwest Fault. Nineteen (19) holes were reported in previous news releases (Sept. 7th, Oct. 6th, and Dec. 8th 2011).

gold grade calculation is a weighted mean with a 0.33 g/t top and bottom cutoff.

Otis' President and CEO, Craig Lindsay, states, "The Company's 2011 drill program has been a huge success in that Otis has clearly grown the Kilgore resource with the results obtained from this years' drill program. The Mine Ridge deposit is not closed off; the gold mineralization is still open toward the north along the controlling Northwest Fault and throughout much of its southern margin. I am excited about the prospect of adding additional ounces via expansion drilling, and am confident that our 2012 drill program will be successful in further growing the resource."

Analysis and Otis QA/QC Program

All assay work was performed by ALS Chemex Labs, Reno, Nevada, which has ISO 9001:2008 quality management system certification and ISO 17025:2005 technical capability accreditation. A 50-gram pulp of all samples was assayed for gold by Fire Assay/AA finish methods. Certified reference materials, duplicates and blanks were inserted into the sample stream for quality control and approximately 10% of the drill samples are sent out to a second lab for check assays.

True bulk-tonnage thicknesses are estimated to be between 80% and 100% of the drilled interval, based on their estimated dip, association with diking, and continuity of mineralization between drill holes. The project's 2011 HQ3-size core drilling, completed October 15, was performed by Timberline Drilling, Inc., Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, employing two Sandvik DE-140 core drills outfitted with a triple-tube core recovery system and face-discharge bits
