St.Andrew Goldfields : SAS Announces Re-filing of Documents

NEWS RELEASE SAS ANNOUNCES RE-FILING OF DOCUMENTS

Toronto, Canada September 20, 2012

St Andrew Goldfields Ltd. (T-SAS) (OTCQX-STADF), ("SAS" or the "Company") reports that it has filed on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) today amended versions of the 2011 Annual Report, Annual Information Form and annual Management Discussion and Analysis to correct an error in the stated amount of inferred mineral resources for the Holt and Holloway Mines.

The amended and restated inferred mineral resources as at the year ended December 31, 2011, is

1,045,000 tonnes at an average grade of 6.81 g/t Au for 229,000 ounces for the Holt Mine, and

2,755,000 tonnes at an average grade of 5.10 g/t Au for 452,000 ounces for the Holloway Mine. The inferred mineral resources at the Holt Mine were overstated by 665,000 ounces (3,791,000 tonnes

at an average grade of 5.46 g/t Au). The inferred mineral resources at the Holloway Mine were

overstated by 44,000 ounces (269,000 tonnes at an average grade of 5.09 g/t Au).

The measured and indicated mineral resources as well as the mineral reserves at Holt and Holloway as at the year ended December 31, 2011, have been reviewed in detail and there is no change to the previously reported numbers (see tables below).

"We have restated the inferred resources at Holt and Holloway as a result of a recently discovered tabulation error", said Jacques Perron, President and CEO. "We have had a successful year of exploration so far, focused on drilling targets situated on the Holt Mine property, as previously disclosed in our press releases dated May 7, 9, and July 31, 2012, which we believe will contribute significant upside to the year-end mineral resources estimation. Holt remains our flagship asset, with a great deal of exploration potential and we are confident we will continue to expand the reserve and resource base as we continue to advance our exploration programs."

This forward-looking information is subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking information. Factors that may cause actual results to vary materially include, but are not limited to, uncertainties relating to the interpretation of the geology, continuity, grade and size estimates of the mineral reserves and resources; fluctuations in gold prices and exchange rates; unanticipated operational or technical difficulties which could escalate operating and/or capital costs and reduce anticipated production levels; operational hazards and risks; compliance with applicable government regulations, including the ability to obtain requisite permits and licenses; dependence on key employees and changes in general economic conditions and changes in conditions in the financial markets. Such forward looking information is based on a number of assumptions, including but not limited to the level and volatility of the price of gold, the ability to achieve capital and operating cost estimates, the accuracy of reserve and resource estimates and the assumptions upon which such estimates are based , the continued availability of qualified personnel, and the sufficiency of the Company's cash reserves and operating cash flow to complete planned development and exploration activities.
