"Our discovery efforts continue to reward us and our
shareholders. Today's results show these are some of the best holes we've
seen yet," said Andre Audet, President and CEO
of Everton Resources Inc.
"Combined with our previous results, our geologists' growing
understanding of La Lechoza Prospect has led to a more targeted drilling program intent on discovering
higher grades and thicker intercepts," Mr. Audet
added.
"Ultimately, the value of our decision to focus our business
activities almost entirely in the Central Dominican Republic has been
endorsed by EVR stakeholders. The assays appear to support our decision
too," he said.

This press release was reviewed by Robert Wheatley, P. Geo. and VP
Exploration of Everton, who acts as Everton's Qualified Person as defined by
NI 43-101. Personnel, at the project, photograph each individual core box
from each core hole prior to measuring core recovery and geologically logging
the hole. The core is then sawn in half with one half going to the lab and
the other half kept for reference. All sample shipments are sealed and
shipped to Acme Analytical Laboratories (R.D.) S.A. at Maimon
for preparation. Prepared samples are then sent to the Acme Analytical
Laboratories Ltd. in Vancouver for analysis. Acme's quality control system
complies with the requirements for the International Standard ISO 9001:2000
by monitoring analytical accuracy and precision with the insertion and
analysis of blanks, reference standards and duplicate samples. Everton's
Quality Control is further assured by the use of in-house blanks. The use of
certified standards and independent analysis of duplicate samples is being
initiated.
Everton
Everton is partnered with Brigus Gold on
actively exploring in the Dominican Republic adjacent to the US$3 billion
Pueblo Viejo project, currently being developed by the world's largest gold
mining company, Barrick Gold Corporation (60%)
(NYSE/TSX: ABX) in partnership with Goldcorp (40%) ("Goldcorp")
(NYSE: GG, TSX: G). Planned divestiture of its 100%-owned subsidiary Hays
Lake Gold containing the Shoal Lake Gold Project in Kenora,
Ontario is expected to provide internal funding to advance the Ampliacion Pueblo Viejo project. Everton also holds an
interest in the Opinaca region of James Bay, Quebec
where the Company has partnered with Aurizon Mines
Ltd. who is advancing Everton's interest by funding 100% of all exploration
work on one of the largest land packages adjacent to Goldcorp's Eleonore gold deposit.
