Desert Gold Ventures Inc. (TSX VENTURE:DAU) (the "Company" or "Desert Gold") is
pleased to announce positive results of the ongoing drill program at its Byumba
Gold Permit in Rwanda. Desert Gold is conducting core drilling to increase the
current 43-101 compliant inferred resource of 5,551,000 tons at a grade of
1.48g/t Au (265,000 ounces) by drilling along the extensions of the deposit. In
its latest program Desert Gold drilled 2,900m in 12 holes along the
north-northwestern extension of the existing resource. 80% of assay results were
received and 45 sampled intervals assayed above 1g/t Au.


So far drilling confirms a continuous 1,200m mineralized zone. The orientation
of the zone is NNW to SSE with sub-outcropping mineralization. Gold
mineralization occurs in broad low grade zones hosting zones of higher grade
mineralization. The mineralization remains open down dip and along strike.

The chemical analyses were conducted by ALS Chemex Johannesburg using the fire
assay method with a ICP-AES finish. Results show the mineralization to extend
for 400m and more to the NNW of the current resource. Desert Gold expects that
continued drilling along strike and on down dip extensions will increase the
current resource significantly.
