Grandview Capital to Evaluate Business Opportunities in China for Thunder Mountain

Boise, ID, Feb 26, 2009: Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: THMG) announced today that Peter Goldstein and Grandview Capital Inc. will be traveling to China on behalf of the Company in pursuit of business opportunities and corporate growth strategies in that country, as part of their business development agreement signed in 2008.

Grandview Capital of Plantation, Florida, has an extensive background in assisting small to mid-sized companies around the world in corporate finance and business development. Peter Goldstein, Principal of Grandview Capital said of the engagement "Great opportunities currently exist in China for precious metals and basic materials companies, and I am optimistic about the future of corporate finance in China, given the latest push by Chinese companies to secure natural resources abroad."

Thunder Mountain Gold is currently expanding their exploration at their South Mountain Property in Owyhee County Idaho, to include newly acquired lease lands, as well as deeper mineralization within the main mine area. The South Mountain property is a precious metals project with base metal credits in the mineralized zones. Kleinfelder conducted an independent resource calculation in May 2008, and verified original resource calculations. Kleinfelder`s model was used by Thunder Mountain Gold to target the deeper zones that were core drilled in 2008. Kleinfelder confirmed the original reported ore resource, calculated at 469,890 tons of high grade mineralized resource of silver, gold, zinc, lead and copper. Work completed by the Company during 2008 demonstrated that there is a potential for deeper base metal mineralization associated with gold and a larger gold system surrounding the historic mine.
