gold-silver-copper-lead-zinc discovery at Elephant Project, Battle 
Mountain, Nevada

Trading Symbol: TSX-V: RGZ 

TORONTO, Sept. 26 /CNW/ - Randsburg International Gold Corporation       
(TSX-V: RGZ) announced today that an expanded Phase 2 drilling program has
commenced at its Elephant Gold and Silver joint venture project located in the
heart of the Battle Mountain mining district of Nevada.
The property abuts Newmont Mining Corporation's (NYSE: NEM) Phoenix
Project. Newmont recently commenced construction of a new open pit mine
complex at Phoenix, located approximately 3 kilometres northwest of the
Elephant project. Phoenix currently has 6 million ounces of gold reserves.
Randsburg has a 37% interest in the joint venture and has advised its
joint venture partner, Duncan Park Holdings Corporation (TSX-V: DPH), of its
intention to exercise its option to earn up to 50% of the project. The work
program is being conducted in connection with a joint venture agreement with
Duncan Park.
On September 7, 2005, Randsburg announced the discovery of polymetallic
gold-silver-copper-lead-zinc mineralization on the property.
Based on these results, the joint venture partners have initiated a
5000 foot drill program which is intended to increase and verify the width and
strike length (north to south) of the mineralized zone.
As previously announced, three holes, P-3C, P-4C and P-5C, were drilled
to test the eastern edge of a large induced polarization (IP) anomaly which
occurs in Section 12 of the Company's joint venture claims at Elephant.
Integrated ground gravity data was also utilized for drill locations.
According to geophysical surveys conducted by Zonge Geophysics in 2004, the IP
anomaly is 800-1200 feet wide and 5000 feet long. Drill holes P-3C, P-4C and 
P-5C were located in a block that trends north-northwest in the general
direction of the Phoenix mine project.
Drill holes P-3C, P-4C and P-5C intersected polymetallic mineralization.
Drill hole P-5C contained 60 feet of mineralized intersections grading from
0.44 to 4.4 grams of gold per tonne (0.155 ounces per tonne) and 0.25 to
81 grams (2.85 ounces per tonne) of silver per tonne. Copper, lead and zinc
were also present. For complete results, see the Company's news release of
September 7, 2005.
Drilling has commenced with drill hole P-05-B, located approximately
1000 feet south of drill hole P-5C. Drill hole numbers follow numbering of
proposed holes and not according to chronological sequence of actual drilling.
Michael Opara, Randsburg President and CEO, stated, "We are very
enthusiastic about the Elephant Project. Based on our analysis of the recent
discovery, the other targets on the property, and the comparables in the
Battle Mountain mining camp, we have decided to increase Randsburg's ownership
of Elephant from 37% to 50%. I believe that Elephant offers an outstanding
risk-reward profile, and that Randsburg shareholders will significantly
benefit from a stronger ownership position."
