Oro Gold Resources Ltd. reports gold assay results for a recent completion of 4,000 metre reverse circulation and core drill program in Mazatlan, Mexico.

These drill results indicate excellent potential to increase the gold grade and expand the new zone discovered by Oro Gold. This should have a positive impact on the previously reported inferred mineral resource of 200,930 ounces gold (4.5 million tonnes at 1.4 g/t gold announced in Oro Gold’s press release dated July 2, 2008).

Frank Powell, Vice President of Oro Gold says:

“These are extremely positive drill results.”  “The drill intersection of 8.5 g/t gold over 61 metres is very significant since it is our first core hole into the heart of a new discovery area. The results of this drill program have definitely exceeded our expectations. We are on target to reach our 2008 objectives of defining and adding new ounces to our current gold resource base. These results demonstrate outstanding upside potential at Trinidad and the entire district!”
