Evolving Gold Mobilizes 4th Core Drill Rig to Expand High Grade Zone

posted on Jul 23, 2009 03:00PM

VANCOUVER, July 23 - Evolving Gold Corp. (TSXV: EVG) (FSE: EV7) (the "Company") is pleased to announce that it is mobilizing a fourth core drill rig at Rattlesnake to define the true width and size potential of the high grade gold mineralization. The Company has an option to acquire 100% of the Rattlesnake Hills property.

With the recent exercise of a portion of the outstanding warrants, the Company now has approximately $18 million in its Treasury allowing it to aggressively explore and advance this project.

    <<
- The recent intersection of 67.1 meters at 10.8 gpt Au in drill hole
RSC-020 has expanded the high grade zone of mineralization at
Rattlesnake approximately 145 meters southwest of the high grade
previously reported in RSC-007 and RSC-003.

- The fourth drill rig will be focused on offset drilling to better
define the true width and size potential of the high grade gold
mineralization at Rattlesnake.

- Two other drill rigs will continue to focus on North Stock, to test
other targets and to better define the geometry, size and grade of the
bulk tonnage gold mineralization.

- One drill rig will continue to test the gold mineralization in the
Antelope Basin and South Stock areas, up to one kilometer south of the
North Stock target.

- Consultations with the permitting authorities in Wyoming have
indicated that the fourth drill rig is within the scope of our current
permit. The added rig is on the property and drilling.

"This fourth drill rig will allow us to continue with our overall drilling plans, while giving us the capacity to properly define the high grade gold mineralization at Rattlesnake and offset the existing high grade intersections," saysQuinton Hennigh , President and Chief Geologist. "This will allow us to effectively explore the exciting high grade portion of this major gold system. We hope to drill 25,000 meters at Rattlesnake this year, an increase of 10,000 meters over our original plan."

Robert Barker, CEO, adds, "It is critical in our drill program that we properly test both the high grade and the bulk tonnage targets at Rattlesnake. This added drill rig will help ensure that we have enough information by the end of the drill season on both of these gold targets to complete a scoping study and a preliminary resource estimate by the first quarter of 2010."
