Detour Lake Exploration

Detour Gold Drilling Program

Detour Gold reported on January 10, 2012 assay results for 93 holes totaling 31,857 metres from its 2011 drilling campaign at the Detour Lake gold project in northern Ontario. The 2011 drilling program totaled 86,644 metres and covered the western extension of the Detour Lake open pit deposit up to section 17,220E and the north wall of the open pit up to section 18,500E. Assays have now been reported for 41,158 metres.

Approximately 67,587 metres (or 78%) of the 2011 drilling program will be included in the 2011 year-end mineral resource and reserve update, which will be announced in early February 2012. For the new mineral reserve estimate, the Company will be using a gold price of US$850/oz and the same pit shell that currently contains mineral reserves of 449.5 million tonnes averaging 1.03 g/t for 14.9 million ounces of gold estimated at a gold price of US$850/oz (refer to press release dated January 31, 2011).

2011 Drilling Program: Surface Plan View and Long section   

The gold mineralization is found along a known east-west, 200 to 300 metre wide corridor extending from the former pit to the west of the Calcite Zone (a distance of 3.3 kilometres). The mineralized corridor remains open to west for several kilometres. Gold mineralization within the corridor typically consists of multiple, subvertical, five to 25 metre wide zones grading between 1.0 to 3.0 g/t gold. High gold values are generally characterized by clusters of visible gold in quartz veins and pillow selvages within potassically altered mafic flows that contain a higher percentage of sulphide minerals.
