Detour Gold Reports More Results from 2007 Phase II Drilling at its Detour Lake Property in Northern Ontario, Canada (DG-07-194A intersects 16.97 g/t over 15.0 m in West Pit)

Detour Gold Corporation is pleased to report the drill results of 38 holes from its Phase II drilling program at the Detour Lake property in northern Ontario. The Company started Phase II drilling in July 2007 and thus far has completed 199 holes totaling 73,620 metres (including 15 holes abandoned for 1,290 metres). The Company has now reported 72 holes totaling 22,487 metres (including six holes abandoned for 303 metres). There are six (6) active drill rigs on site, four of which are on the Phase II program and two on the exploration program.

Drilling in the West Pit area (17 holes, including two abandoned) is continuing to return excellent and consistent results. Significant new mineralization was found outside of the boundaries of the current US$575 and US$700 pit shells, at the east end of the West Pit, in holes DG-07-194A, DG-07-187, DG-07-174, and DG-07-156. In the Gap Zone area, five (5) of the seven (7) drill holes tested only a small portion of the mineralized corridor, near the upper level of the Chert Marker Horizon (CMH) and footwall zone. Encouraging results were obtained from another 14 holes (including one abandoned) in the Calcite Zone.
