Message: Marshall Lake Project White Tiger Mining Corp Two Significant Chalcopyrite Zones
WEST VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - April 11, 2011) - White Tiger Mining Corp. (TSX VENTURE:WTC)(FRANKFURT:W0I) -

On Thursday, April 7, 2011 (at approximately 12:15 pm), the Company requested a halt in the trading of its shares to facilitate the orderly dissemination of further news regarding the Company's Marshall Lake Project, Ontario. The Company resumed trading on Monday, April 11, 2011 at the opening of the market with the announcement of the following:

Further to the Company's news release dated April 5, 2011, White Tiger Mining Corp. (the "Company" or "White Tiger") is very pleased to report the results for its second drill hole (RMZ11-23), as part of the Company's phase two exploration drilling program currently underway on its Marshall Lake "RM Zone" discovery. The Marshall Lake Property is a copper, silver and gold exploration project located 30 km west of Nakina, Ontario (access is via good all weather gravel road from Hwy 11 and 22 km north of the main CNR rail Line).

The results from drill hole (RMZ11-23) have confirmed the same two significant zones that were intersected by the Company in drill hole RMZ11-21. Drill hole RMZ11-23 is located 25 metres to the south of the first drill hole (RMZ11-21) at the same azimuth and dip angle. The second drill hole was designed to confirm the zones down dip and to assist in establishing the true width of the zones intersected in the first drill hole. A third drill hole (RMZ11-24) is now underway and is located 75 metres to the north of drill hole RMZ11-21.

The first zone of drill hole RMZ11-23 intersected minor mineralization from surface to 30 metres. However, from 30 metres to 213.3 metres, the drill hole intersected mineralization similar to the fragmental stringer zone encountered in drill hole RMZ11-21. From 213.3 metres to 216.1 metres, drill hole RMZ11-23 intersected a mafic dike. From 216.1 metres to 224.6 metres, drilling intersected a chalcopyrite mineralized rhyolite and from 224.6 metres to 232.9 metres, drilling intersected a chalcopyrite mineralized mafic dike. A second lower zone for RMZ11-23 (similar to that of RMZ 11-21) was confirmed from 232.9 metres to 303 metres (for a longer total length of 67 metres), which is interpreted by the Company to be an extension of the RM Zone, as previously announced for drill holes RMZ10-10, RMZ10-11 and RMZ10-15 (see the Company's news release dated November 3, 2010).

Drill hole RMZ11-23 is now the longest and most continuous mineralized drill intersection that the Company has completed on the Marshall Lake Property to date.

Prior to drilling hole RMZ11-23, the Company collared a tentative drill hole (RMZ11-22) located approximately 50 metres to the west (along strike) of RMZ11-21. However, in light of the drilling results encountered from drill hole RMZ11-21, the Company decided to delay drilling RMZ11-22 to a later date and proceeded with drill hole RMZ11-23 in an effort to determine the true width of the zones intersected in drill hole RM11-21.

The RM discovery drill hole (GAZN08-06), now referred to as the RM Zone, is located 300 metres northeast of core drill hole RMZ11-21, indicating a 425 metre strike length of mineralization to date. Recent IP (induced polarization) surveys suggest to the Company that there could be an additional 200 metres extension to the north east of the RM Zone, which could bring the total potential mineralization to 625 metres.

Although the Company is optimistic about its preliminary drill results to date, assays for core drill holes RMZ11-21 and RMZ11-23 are pending and will be announced when received and reviewed by the Company. The drill core is being split at the Marshall Lake Property camp and is being sent for assay preparation at an ALS Chemex facility in Thunder Bay, Ontario.
