NuLegacy Gold Drills the Red Hill Prospect

November 18, 2010 Reno, NV - NuLegacy Gold Corporation reports that it has commenced drilling on the Miranda Gold Inc. portion of its Red Hill Prospect. The 45 square mile Red Hill Prospect is located in the prolific Cortez Segment of the Battle Mountain-Eureka gold trend in Eureka County, Nevada.

On November 9, 2010, NuLegacy commenced a 5 hole reverse circulation drilling program to test several anomalies on the Red Hill Prospect. Three of the five holes will be the first test of the newly identified Long Fault Induced Polarization (IP) Anomaly¹, and the other two holes will test a large undrilled gold in soil anomaly and an area of alteration and anomalous gold in rock formations.

Roger Steininger, COO, says, “These first five holes, each 1,000 feet or more deep and five inch in diameter, are designed to test several areas of the 2.6 square mile Miranda portion (of  the 45 square mile Red Hill Prospect) that have had little or no previous drilling to these depths.”

It’s anticipated the drill program will be completed in early December, 2010. Drill samples will be sent to American Assay Laboratories, Sparks, NV, for storage and analyses with results expected in January 2011.

On November 12, 2010 we obtained a receipt for our final prospectus dated November 10, 2010.
