MATERIAL CHANGE REPORT



Item 1       Name and Address of Company

Terra Nova Gold Corp.
3rd Floor, 157 Alexander Street
Vancouver, BC V6A 1B8

Item 2       Date of Material Change

   January 17, 2005

Item 3       News Release

The news release dated January 17, 2005 was issued in Vancouver, BC and disseminated through CCN Matthews.

Item 4       Summary of Material Change

The Company announces that drilling is underway on the San Diego property, located in Michoacan, Mexico. Three thousand meters of drilling is planned for the 2005 program. A 40 line kilometre Induced Polarization (IP) survey on 600 metre spaced lines is nearing completion. The results of the IP survey are being used in conjunction with geology and geochemistry to identify and prioritize drill targets.

As a result of the Company’s focus on the San Diego Project, Management has decided to not pursue the option to acquire the Cape Ray Gold Project, located in southwest Newfoundland.

Item 5       Full Description of Material Change

The Company announces that drilling is underway on the San Diego property, located in Michoacan, Mexico. Three thousand meters of drilling is planned for the 2005 program. A 40 line kilometre Induced Polarization (IP) survey on 600 metre spaced lines is nearing completion. The results of the IP survey are being used in conjunction with geology and geochemistry to identify and prioritize drill targets.

The Company recently completed a 1,077 line kilometre airborne magnetic survey covering an area of 12.5 kilometres by 12.5 kilometres on the San Diego Property. The survey appears to have outlined the intrusive complex which hosts the porphyry copper system outlined on surface by hydrothermal alteration and by copper, molybdenum and gold geochemical anomalies. The interpreted intrusive complex is substantially larger than the porphyry copper system outlined on surface.

The soil geochemical grid has also been extended to the northeast, southwest and southeast in the area of the main geochemical anomaly. The main copper and molybdenum geochemical anomaly has been closed off and is totally surrounded by a well defined zinc halo. The copper anomaly (greater than 400 ppm with spot highs greater than 2000 ppm and as high as 3340 ppm) has been expanded to 3.5 kilometres by 2.0 kilometres. The coincident molybdenum anomaly (greater than 10 ppm with spot highs greater than 200 ppm) is slightly smaller than the copper anomaly.

The gold geochemical anomaly has not been closed off, especially to the southwest, and the higher gold values are not coincident with the higher copper and molybdenum values. The anomaly has gold values greater than 10 ppb with spot highs greater than 200 ppb, greater than 400 ppb and as high as 600 ppb. It is unknown how the gold anomaly is related to the porphyry copper system.

A more subtle copper geochemical anomaly (greater than 100 ppm), with related molybdenum and gold values, is located approximately 4.5 kilometres northwest of the main geochemical anomaly. Geological mapping and prospecting is required to determine its significance.

The Company has the option to earn a 50% interest in the San Diego Property from Noranda Exploracion Mexico, S.A. de C.V., by incurring a total of CDN$15,000,000 on exploration and related work on or before May 31, 2009.

As a result of the Company’s focus on the San Diego Project, Management has decided to not pursue the option to acquire the Cape Ray Gold Project, located in southwest Newfoundland.
