Evolving Gold Corp Signs Letter of Intent to Enter Into Exploration Lease and Sublease with Newmont Mining Corporation
October 2, 2007, Vancouver, British Columbia: Evolving Gold Corporation (TSX-V:EVG) (OTCBB: EVOGF)
(FSE: EV7) (the �Company�) is pleased to announce that it has signed a Letter of Intent to enter into an exploration
lease and sublease agreement with Newmont Mining Corporation (�Newmont�) on certain properties owned or
leased by Newmont in Elko, Eureka and Lander Counties in Nevada.
The Company�s President, Lawrence Dick, Ph.D., P.Geo., explains: �The proposed exploration lease and sublease
with Newmont represent an unparalleled opportunity for Evolving Gold. Most of these properties are located in the
prolific Carlin Gold Trend in Nevada which has produced over 60,000,000 ounces of gold.�
Quinton Hennigh, Ph.D., Evolving Gold�s V.P. Exploration, comments, �I have spent a good part of my professional
career exploring the gold camps of Nevada. I welcome the opportunity to prove up the geological concepts I have
refined over my many years of research and field work in the Carlin trend and other gold trends in Nevada�.
Under the terms of the proposed lease and sublease, Newmont will lease to Evolving its interest in certain
unpatented mining claims and owned fee interests and will sublease to Evolving its interest in certain leased lands
and leased unpatented claims, subject to a back-in right. The lease and sublease covers five separate �Project Areas�,
identified as Carlin, Cottonwood Creek, Susie Creek, Boulder Valley and Sheep Creek.
Under terms of the proposed lease and sublease, Evolving would be required to make exploration expenditures
within each Project Area in the aggregate amount of $US 3,500,000 over a period of five years, with 70% of such
expenditures in direct drilling costs.
The initial $200,000 expenditure in each Project Area, with the exception of the Susie Creek Project Area, would be
a firm obligation.
Beginning on the sixth anniversary of the proposed lease and sublease Evolving would be required to spend at least
$750,000 in exploration expenditures in each Project Area or pay Newmont a rental of $10 per acre for such Project
Area, escalating at 5% per year.
The proposed lease and sublease will include provisions for a 3% to 5% sliding scale net smelter returns royalty, less
any underlying royalties with a minimum of 2%.
With respect to each Project Area, Newmont would have an option to enter into one or more joint ventures with
Evolving and earn a 51% interest in the property by expending 200% of the exploration expenditures made by
Evolving, and an additional 19% interest (for a total undivided interest of 70%) by expending an additional 150% of
the exploration expenditures made by Evolving.
A brief summary of the exploration lands involved in the Evolving-Newmont agreement follows:
Boulder Valley
The Boulder Valley project area comprises approximately 10,700 acres of Newmont held surface and mineral rights
and 1,600 acres of Newmont held lode claims on Bureau of Land Management lands covering a series of low,
rolling hills approximately 2 miles west of the Genesis-Blue Star and Post-Betze mines of the northern Carlin Trend.
Carlin
The Carlin project area comprises approximately 5,300 acres of Newmont held surface and minerals and 2,200 acres
of Newmont held lode claims on Bureau of Land Management lands lying between the Gold Quarry and Rain mines
of the Carlin Trend.
Cottonwood Creek
The Cottonwood Creek project area comprises 1,800 acres of Newmont held lode claims on Bureau of Land
Management lands lying approximately 3 miles northeast of the Gold Quarry mine. The property lies on the
northeast flank of the Tuscarora Arch, a north-northwest-trending geologic anticline, directly opposite the Gold
Quarry deposit which is situated on the southwest flank. Evolving plans to drill several 300-500m holes, testing for a
potential �mirror� of the Gold Quarry deposit.
Sheep Creeks
Approximately 10,500 acres of Newmont held surface and minerals will be combined with Evolving Gold�s 38,000
acres of staked claims (Battle Mountain property) to form the Sheep Creeks project area. These lands lie
approximately 25 miles north of the town of Battle Mountain, NV. All of the project area is covered by alluvium
and volcanic rocks, but gravity data suggest basement rocks lie at reasonably shallow depth under several blocks.
Evolving geologists believe these gravity anomalies may represent �pieces� of the Carlin Trend rocks that have
become disarticulated during Miocene extensional tectonism. If so, they could represent a large area of un-tested
ground. Evolving plans to drill a series of vertical, 300-500m deep holes in several strategic areas to test this
concept.
