Detour Gold Reports Drill Results From Its Detour Lake Gold Project in Ontario

Detour Gold Corporation (TSX: DGC) ("Detour Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to report assay results for an additional 35 holes totaling 15,532 metres (including 5 holes abandoned for 940 metres) from its 2009 infill diamond drilling program at the Detour Lake project in northern Ontario. Thus far in 2009, the Company has completed 93,578 metres of drilling of the budgeted 95,000 metres to finish the 40 metre by 40 metre drill spacing up to section 18,000E (west end of Calcite Zone).

In the Calcite Zone, the Company obtained encouraging results from 17 drill holes from sections 18,140E to 18,540E. A number of holes intersected significant gold mineralization just below the current US$775 pit shell (used for the mineral reserve estimate of September 2009), which is expected to have a positive impact on the block model for the feasibility study. The most important results include: 2.66 g/t (uncut) or 2.40 g/t (cut) over 36.0 metres in hole DG-09-715 and 1.62 g/t (uncut) or 1.58 g/t (cut) over 46.0 metres in hole DG-09-722.

Several holes in the Calcite Zone intersected wide gold intersections within the current pit design confirming the continuity of the mineralization: Hole DG-09-711 intersected 1.75 g/t (uncut) or 1.69 g/t (cut) over 82.0 metres; DG-09-719 intersected 1.90 g/t (uncut) or 1.49 g/t (cut) over 68.0 metres; and hole DG-09-702 intersected 1.43 g/t over 70 metres.

Results from 17 infill holes completed from section 19,260E to 20,240E (west of the former open pit) continued to show good continuity of the gold mineralization in the core of the mineralized corridor. Of significance, holes DG-09-696 intersected 2.92 g/t (uncut) or 1.08 g/t (cut) over 40.6 metres and 16.69 g/t (uncut) or 3.83 g/t (cut) over 16.0 metres and hole DG-09-705 on section 19,520E intersected 1.95 g/t (uncut) or 1.51 g/t (cut) over 65.0 metres.

Significant mineralized (uncut) intervals encountered are shown below.

Detour Gold's delineation program is being managed by Project Manager, Mr. Roger Aubertin, P.Eng., a Qualified Person within the meaning of National Instrument 43-101. Mr. Aubertin has verified and approved the data disclosed in this release, including the sampling, analytical and test data underlying the information. Samples are now prepared at both SGS Minerals Services in Sudbury and Don Mills, Ontario, Canada and assayed in their laboratory at Don Mills. Analysis for gold is done on sawn half core samples using fire assay (AA finish). Samples with higher grade gold (greater than 5 g/t) are re-assayed using the pulp and metallics procedures. Standard reference materials, blank and field duplicate samples are inserted prior to shipment from site to monitor the quality control of the assay data. For additional information on Quality Assurance and Quality Control ("QA/QC"), refer to the press release dated April 11, 2007.
