Energold Announces Sale Of The La Parcela Concession
======================================================================
Energold Drilling Corp. ("Energold") is pleased to announce that the
Board has approved a binding Letter Agreement dated June 29, 2007 with
a Canadian-controlled private corporation ("CCPC") for consideration of
CDN$2.0 million that includes the transfer of all its rights and
obligations in the La Parcela Concession in the Dominican Republic. As
part of this purchase Agreement, Energold has agreed to provide the
CCPC non-exclusive access to its Dominican Republic intellectual
portfolio, including access to its property data base of mineral
properties in the Dominican Republic until June 30, 2009. Energold has
also agreed to provide technical assistance and support services to the
CCPC, at market rates, for field exploration and drilling services.
In a parallel agreement with CCPC, Energold has granted a one
year-option to acquire all of the rights and obligations for three
additional concessions for further consideration of CDN$50,000 each
plus costs. With these transactions, Energold has begun the process of
divesting its non-core assets in order to realize their substantial
underlying value and to simplify Energold's investment profile as a
focused provider of drilling services. The concessions involved in the
sale to CCPC represent only a portion of Energold's portfolio of
projects in the Dominican Republic.
The two million dollars CDN from the sale has been placed in an
interest bearing trust account for Energold. Energold has agreed to
invest the proceeds from this sale in an initial public offering to be
undertaken by that CCPC, provided that such an offering takes place
during the fall of 2007; failing this, the funds are to be released to
Energold. As a result of this transaction, Energold expects to record a
significant pre-tax income gain during the second quarter.
Energold Drilling Corp. is an environmentally and socially sensitive
diamond drilling company that services the mining industry. Energold
also holds 6.6 million shares in silver miner IMPACT and a portfolio of
exploration projects in the Dominican Republic.
