NVI Novra Technologies Inc

Detour Gold Corporation (TSX:DGC) ("Detour Gold" or the "Company") announces
that it has amended a previously executed letter of agreement (the "LOA") with
Conquest Resources Limited ("Conquest") pursuant to which Detour Gold will
purchase Conquest's Aurora and Tie-In claim blocks (the "Aurora Claims") and
will have the option to acquire a 50% interest in Conquest's Sunday Lake claim
block (the "Sunday Lake Claims") located immediately south and east of the
Company's Detour Lake project, respectively (the "Transaction"). 


Conquest has announced that it has entered into an agreement with NVI Mining
Ltd. ("NVI") to purchase for $1 million ($500,000 in cash and the remainder by
the issuance of Conquest's shares) the remaining 40% interest that it did not
already own in the Aurora Claims and the Sunday Lake Claims and the 2% net
smelter royalty interest held by NVI. Pursuant to the agreement with NVI,
Conquest will not be required to complete the remaining exploration expenditures
of $2.13 million on both properties. Both properties remain subject to an
interest held by Prism Resources Inc. equal to 7.5% of the net profits from the
properties.


Pursuant to the terms of the amended LOA, Detour Gold will pay an additional $1
million for a total of $2 million in cash to reflect the above separate
agreement between Conquest and NVI, and will, subject to regulatory approval,
still issue 100,000 common shares of Detour Gold to Conquest. As previously
announced, on the closing of the Transaction, Detour Gold will enter into an
option and joint venture agreement with Conquest pursuant to which Detour Gold
will have an option to acquire a 50% interest in a joint venture with Conquest
on the Sunday Lake Claims by incurring $1 million in exploration expenditures
over the next two years (the "Sunday Lake Expenditures"). On closing, Detour
Gold will have a 100% interest in the Aurora Claims. After completing the Sunday
Lake Expenditures, Detour Gold will have a 50% interest in a joint venture with
Conquest on the Sunday Lake Claims. 


Detour Gold is acquiring the Aurora Claims to accommodate the infrastructure
requirements for the development of its Detour Lake mine. In addition, the
Conquest land package will allow Detour Gold to further expand its regional
exploration program on what is believed to be a prospective area of this
relatively under-explored portion of the Abitibi Greenstone Belt. Detour Gold's
current land position of 376 sq. km would increase to 466 sq. km.


The Transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2010. Closing of the
Transaction is conditional upon (i) completion of satisfactory due diligence by
Detour Gold; (ii) receipt of regulatory, contractual and corporate consents and
approvals; (iii) entering into of a formal agreement for the Transaction; (iv)
Detour Gold and Conquest entering into a joint venture agreement providing
Detour Gold with a right to earn a 50% interest in Conquest's interest in the
Sunday Lake Claims; and (v) the satisfaction of other customary conditions.
