PRESS RELEASE

WHITE KNIGHT RESOURCES, NEVADA PACIFIC GOLD &
TONE RESOURCES SHAREHOLDERS OVERWHELMINGLY ACCEPT
US GOLD’S OFFERS!

READY TO BUILD NEVADA’S PREMIER EXPLORATION COMPANY!

For Immediate Release

Denver, Colorado (March 23, 2007) — US GOLD CORPORATION (AMEX: UXG — TSX: UXG) is pleased to announce that shareholders of White Knight Resources Ltd., Nevada Pacific Gold Ltd., and Tone Resources Limited have overwhelmingly accepted US Gold’s offers to acquire the outstanding shares of each target company!

US Gold’s wholly-owned subsidiary, US Gold Canadian Acquisition Corporation, has taken up and accepted the following number and approximate percentage of common shares of each target company based on the outstanding shares today:

	Number of Common		Percentage of Outstanding
	Shares Tendered		Common Shares
White Knight Resources		55,752,661		93.7%
Nevada Pacific Gold		59,278,256		83.5%
Tone Resources		18,806,726		89.4%

“We are pleased that shareholders of the three target companies have accepted our offer! We will now move quickly to integrate these four companies and drive forward. During this process, US Gold has accomplished many of the goals I set for the Company in order to create Nevada’s premier exploration company: We strengthened the treasury, increased our trading liquidity by listing our common shares on the American and Toronto Stock Exchanges and began an aggressive $30 million exploration program at our Tonkin Project. These three acquisitions will take us one step closer to achieving our goal, with a large discovery being the last and most exciting on the list,” stated Rob McEwen, Chairman and CEO of US Gold.

Under the offers, US Gold Canadian Acquisition Corporation offered 0.35 of an exchangeable share for each outstanding White Knight Resources common share, 0.23 of an exchangeable share for each Nevada Pacific Gold common share and 0.26 of an exchangeable share for each Tone Resources common share. The aggregate number of exchangeable shares to be issued in the offers by US Gold Canadian Acquisition

Corporation will be approximately 38,037,179. It is anticipated that certificates for the exchangeable shares will be delivered next week.

Now that the offers have expired, US Gold and US Gold Canadian Acquisition Corporation intend to implement a subsequent acquisition transaction under Canadian law, in order to acquire full ownership of each of the target companies.
