NEWS RELEASE

Support for Capital Gold Merger Increases

Vancouver, British Columbia — Timmins Gold Corp. (“Timmins Gold”) (TSX-V:TMM) thanks the shareholders of Capital Gold that have contacted us with their support for Timmins Gold’s offer for the shares of Capital Gold. Since the announcement by Timmins Gold last Monday of its merger proposal, additional shareholders of Capital Gold have now either signed or pledged support agreements with Timmins Gold.

Timmins Gold remains committed to its offer for Capital Gold and will continue with its intention to merge the two companies. The offer is 2.27 Timmins Gold shares per Capital Gold share which represents a bid of $4.92 based on Friday’s closing price of Timmins Gold’s shares.

The completed merger with Capital Gold will create a low cost Mexican gold producer with forecast 2011 production of 180,000 ounces of gold with operating synergies in an underexplored area along the prolific Mojave-Sonora Megashear gold belt of Mexico.
