(TSX:ETG; NYSE AMEX:EGI;\n Frankfurt:EKA - "Entrée" or the "Company") has confirmed the existence\n of a potentially viable shallow copper oxide resource and additional\n deeper sulphide mineralization at Blue Hill.  Assays received from\n recent drilling on the Blue Hill target define a zone of shallow copper\n oxide mineralization over an area of 700 by 500 metres. Blue Hill is\n located approximately 3 kilometres west-northwest of the Company's Ann\n Mason deposit within the Yerington copper camp of Nevada.\n\n\nThe presence of extensive copper oxide mineralization at Blue Hill is\n important as this type of mineralization could allow mining at\n significantly lower grades and reduced costs using heap leach-solution\n extraction technology in comparison to a conventional sulphide milling\n operation. Many profitable copper oxide mines in the southwest US are\n currently mining grades of less than 0.30% Cu. \n\n\nRecent deep-penetrating induced polarization geophysical surveys,\n combined with drill results, indicate the underlying Blue Hill sulphide\n zone is larger than previously identified (see maps on www.entreegold.com).  The Blue Hill mineralization is believed to be a faulted portion of\n the Ann Mason deposit that has the potential to develop into a\n significant discovery with continued exploration.  Entree w...
