MIDWAY AWARDS MINING CONTRACT TO LEDCOR

PAN PROJECT, NEVADA

March 19, 2014

Denver, Colorado – Midway Gold Corp. ("Midway" or the "Company") (MDW:TSX, MDW:NYSE-MKT) announces that it has selected Ledcor CMI, Inc. (“Ledcor”) as its mining contractor for the Pan Project, Nevada. Ledcor will provide all mining-related services, manpower and equipment for the Pan Project at a substantial capital savings to Midway in the early years of the mine life.

“Completion of this contract is significant progress for Midway and the Pan Project,” said Ken Brunk, President and CEO of Midway. “We have been working hard to reduce and defer capital costs at Pan to achieve an improved return on capital for our shareholders. Entering into this contract with Ledcor goes a long way to bringing our initial capital down, as we no longer need to purchase a mine fleet, which made up most of the originally budgeted Mine Equipment costs in the 2011 Feasibility. This would also eliminate expenditures for facilities associated with an owner mining fleet.

We believe our new partnership with Ledcor will provide the highest return to our shareholders and to the local community as we build out the Company. Midway and Ledcor look forward to a long and prosperous relationship.”

Pan Project, Nevada

The Pan project is a low cost, oxidized, Carlin-style gold deposit mineable by shallow open pit methods and treatable by heap leaching. A Feasibility Study was completed in November 2011. It shows the NPV of the project is robust at a range of gold prices, ranging from $123 million at $1,200/oz gold to $344 million at $1,900/oz gold. The IRR grows from 32% to 79% using the same gold price range. Both are after-tax figures (see press release dated November 15, 2011.)

This release has been reviewed and approved for Midway by Dave Mosch, Corporate Mining Engineering at Midway and a "qualified person" as that term is defined in NI 43-101.
