Preliminary Economic Assessment of Entree Gold's Ann Mason Generates $1.11 Billion NPV Over 24 Year Initial Mine Life
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 10/24/12 -- Entree Gold Inc. (TSX: ETG)(NYSE MKT: EGI)(FRANKFURT: EKA) ("Entree" or the "Company") today announced that it has received the results of a positive Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") for its 100%-owned Ann Mason copper-molybdenum porphyry deposit in Nevada ("Ann Mason" or the "Project"). The Project is expected to yield a base case ("Base Case"), pre-tax, 7.5% net present value ("NPV7.5") of $1.11 billion and an internal rate of return ("IRR") of 14.8%, using assumed copper, molybdenum, gold and silver prices of $3.00/lb, $13.50/lb, $1,200/oz and $22/oz, respectively. Using October 15, 2012 spot commodity prices of $3.71/lb copper, $10.43/lb molybdenum, $1,736/oz gold and $33.22/oz silver ("Spot Case"), the pre-tax NPV7.5 and IRR increase to $2.54 billion and 22.9%, respectively.
The PEA envisions an open pit and conventional sulphide flotation milling operation with an initial 24 year mine life. Over the life of mine ("LOM"), the Project is estimated to produce an annual average of 214 million pounds of copper at total cash costs per pound sold, net of by-product sales, of $1.46 per pound copper.
PEA Highlights
-- Base Case, pre-tax NPV7.5 of $1.11 billion, IRR of 14.8%, and payback of
5.6 years, based on long term metal prices of $3.00/lb copper, $13.50/lb

The PEA is preliminary in nature and includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the PEA will be realized. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.
Greg Crowe, President and CEO commented, "This Preliminary Economic Assessment on Ann Mason is an important milestone in the evolution of Entree. The results clearly illustrate the potential of our 100% owned, large tonnage, copper-molybdenum porphyry deposit. The PEA will assist us in advancing the Project towards development, while giving us the flexibility to consider various options, including a strategic partnership on Ann Mason.
Importantly, Ann Mason is located within the low-risk, mining friendly state of Nevada, in a historic copper camp where there is strong local community support for mining. With resource nationalism on the rise, it is a real advantage to have an advanced property in Nevada, where clear guidelines and a fair process facilitate the timely development of mining projects.
Our next step will be to move towards Pre-Feasibility on Ann Mason. Future work will include additional drilling, particularly to the north and west, to potentially extend the mineralization within the current pit design and reduce the waste-to-mineralization strip ratio. The high percentage of indicated resources in the current PEA pit could reduce the amount of drilling required to proceed to Pre-Feasibility. In addition, we have a land package that covers just over eight thousand hectares, and have already identified several other highly prospective exploration targets on the Ann Mason Project property that warrant additional work, including surface copper oxide showings and untested geophysical anomalies. The deposit remains open in several directions, and we are finalizing a resource estimate for the Blue Hill oxide-copper target, 1.5 kilometres northwest of Ann Mason."
Mining Operation
Open pit mine design and scheduling at Ann Mason has provided the framework for a mining operation that will be developed through five phases over a 24 year period, at a mill feed rate of 100,000 tpd. Mining will use conventional rotary drilling, blasting and loading with large cable shovels and 360-tonne trucks. The open pit mine is estimated to contain 562.2 million tonnes ("Mt") of indicated material, or 67% of the total plant feed. An additional 274.2 Mt of inferred material will also be directed to the mill or 33% of the total plant feed. The LOM waste to mineralization strip ratio is 2.16:1. Pit slopes are variable depending on the geotechnical parameters of the rock types and range from 50 degrees in the overlying volcanic rocks, to 37 degrees in the porphyry mineralization. The high ratio of indicated to inferred material in the process feed emphasizes the high quality of the resource base used for the PEA and limits the amount of additional drilling required prior to proceeding to a Pre-Feasibility level. The LOM mill feed grade averages 0.31% copper, 0.004% molybdenum, 0.03 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold and 0.58 g/t silver.
Processing and Metallurgy
The proposed process plant is sized at 100,000 tpd of mill feed and will consist of conventional unit operations including gyratory crushing, SAG and ball mill grinding, rougher flotation, concentrate regrinding, cleaner flotation, concentrate filtration, and tailings thickening.
Metallurgical testing has been completed on samples of drill core at Metcon Research in Tucson, Arizona. The work was done on four separate composites representing the two main mineralogical domains, and consisted of mineralogical characterisation, grindability testing, and batch and locked cycle flotation testing. Preliminary grindability work has established that the feed material is of moderate hardness, with a Bond Ball Work Index of 15.7 kilowatt-hours per tonne and an Abrasion Index of 0.283. Locked cycle flotation testing has demonstrated that a simple flotation flow sheet with moderate grinds, two stages of cleaning, and low reagent additions is able to generate a saleable copper concentrate, with no penalty elements identified. Payable by-product levels of gold and silver are present in the copper concentrates.
Metallurgical predictions of 93.5% copper recovery to a concentrate grading 30% copper are based on average values (last four cycles) from locked cycle test data on the main zone composites, as summarized in Table 2 below.

The potential for producing a separate molybdenum concentrate has also been investigated, but larger scale testing is required in order to generate grade and recovery estimates, as a consequence of the low sample head grade. An estimated molybdenum recovery of 50% is based on early-stage separation testwork.
Capital Costs
The pre-production capital cost estimate includes the open pit mine capital, a 100,000 tpd processing plant, infrastructure (including a tailings facility, power improvements, water and roads), environmental costs, owner's and indirect costs and contingency. The sustaining capital cost includes LOM replacement of mine and other equipment, tailings expansions, infrastructure upgrades and reclamation costs. Initial capital and sustaining capital costs are summarized below in Table 3.

PEA Mineral Resources
Entree contracted Quantitative Group Pty Ltd ("QG") based in Perth, Australia to prepare an updated mineral resource estimate for Ann Mason. The current resource estimate is contained within a constraining Lerchs-Grossmann ("LG") pit shell, generated by AGP, and is based on approximately 33,000 metres of recent drilling in 30 holes and approximately 49,000 metres of historic drilling in 116 holes. The resource database also includes re-assaying of 6,333 samples from 44 historical Anaconda core holes, to allow molybdenum, gold and silver values to be estimated. At a base case lower cut-off of 0.20% copper, the deposit is estimated to contain an indicated mineral resource of 1.14 billion tonnes ("Bt") at 0.33% copper and 0.006% molybdenum and an inferred mineral resource of 0.873 Bt at 0.29% copper and 0.004% molybdenum. By-product levels of gold and silver were also estimated, and are shown in Table 5. The mineral resource estimate is CIM 2010 compliant and prepared in accordance with NI 43-101.

Note:
1. The mineral resource estimate has an effective date of August 14, 2012
and was prepared by Scott Jackson, F.AusIMM from QG.
Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.
Although the mineral resources previously reported in March 2012 are not significantly different than the total mineralized inventory, which forms the basis of the current estimate, approximately 14% of the previously reported mineralization at the 0.20% copper cut-off now occurs outside of the resource constraining pit shell and therefore is not included in the current estimate. Further exploration may bring a portion of this additional mineralization into a resource category.
The key estimation parameters used by QG for the Ann Mason estimate are as follows:
-- Copper was interpolated using a single estimation domain created using
an approximate 0.15% copper threshold. A similar but smaller domain was
built for molybdenum using a 0.005% threshold.
-- Assays were composited to 5 metres in line.
-- Copper and molybdenum variograms show that there is not a high degree of
anisotropy; there is a moderate nugget effect and ranges up to 300
metres were modelled.
-- Inside the copper domain, composites above 2% were given a restricted
range of influence (40 metres). For molybdenum, a similar strategy was
applied at 0.01% molybdenum.
-- Estimation of 40 x 40 x 15 metre blocks was by Ordinary Kriging.
-- Density in the mineralized porphyry was based on 4,051 wax-immersion
determinations and a Kriging model was built. In the volcanics above the
Singatse Fault a single bulk density value (2.34) based on 130
measurements was used.
-- The resource was classified into inferred or indicated using a number of
factors, taking into account confidence in the model, data spacing and
various complementary geostatistical parameters, as follows:
-- Indicated: Material inside the 0.15% copper domain, with a spacing
of approximately 100 x 75 metres or less and a slope of regression
(a measure of conditional bias) above 0.7.
-- Inferred: Material inside the 0.15% copper domain with a spacing of
greater than 100 metres but less than 175 metres (i.e. the rest of
the copper domain).
-- Not Classified: All material outside the 0.15% copper domain or
below the economic pit shell.
The current Ann Mason mineral resource has been constrained by an LG economic pit shell by AGP, using the following parameters:
-- 3-year trailing average gross metal values of $3.61/lb copper, $14.94/lb
molybdenum, $1,425/oz gold, and $27.91/oz silver.
-- Metallurgical recoveries of 92% copper, 50% molybdenum, 50% gold and 55%
silver.
-- Mining costs: $1.09/tonne base cost to the 1605 metre level then
increasing by $0.02/tonne/15 metres bench below that level.
-- Process and general management and administration ("G&A") costs of
$6.12/tonne ($5.82/tonne process plus $0.30/tonne G&A).
-- Pit slopes of 52 degrees in the volcanic rock and 44 degrees in the
porphyry mineralization.
Near Term Development and Exploration Plans
With the completion of a positive PEA study, Entree now expects to advance to a Pre-Feasibility level on the Project. Future work will include additional drilling, particularly to the north and west of the Ann Mason deposit to potentially extend the mineralization within the current pit design and reduce the waste-to-mineralization strip ratio. In addition to the exploration potential, further work aimed at reducing the Base Case economic cut-off has the potential to convert existing waste material in the PEA plan into mill feed. Continued strength in metal prices and enhancements in recoveries can assist in lowering the mill cut-off and have the potential to provide more tonnage for mining. This will be reviewed as the Project progresses to the Pre-Feasibility study stage.
Several other high-priority targets on the Ann Mason Project property require further exploration and development. These include the Blue Hill, Roulette and Blackjack (induced polarization ("IP") and copper-oxide) targets and the Minnesota copper skarn target. In the Blackjack area, IP and surface copper oxide exploration targets have been identified for drill testing. The Minnesota skarn target requires further drilling to test deeper IP and magnetic anomalies.
On the near-surface Blue Hill oxide target (1.5 kilometres northwest of the Ann Mason deposit), copper oxide mineralization extends from surface to a maximum depth of 185 metres (average approximately 125 metres), over an area of 800 by 500 metres and remains open to the northwest and southeast. Drilling of the underlying sulphide target remains sparse, but has identified a target more than one kilometre in width which remains open in most directions with potential for expansion. Blue Hill has not been incorporated into the current PEA study, however, an initial mineral resource estimate is being finalized and will be released shortly.
Non-U.S. GAAP Performance Measurement
"Cash Costs" is a non-U.S. GAAP Performance Measurement. This performance measure is included because this statistic is widely accepted as the standard of reporting cash costs of production in North America. This performance measure does not have a meaning within U.S. GAAP and, therefore, amounts presented may not be comparable to similar data presented by other mining companies. This performance measure should not be considered in isolation as a substitute for measures of performance in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

ABOUT ENTREE GOLD INC.
Entree Gold Inc. is a Canadian mineral exploration company balancing opportunity and risk with key assets in Mongolia and Nevada. As a joint venture partner with a carried interest on a portion of the Oyu Tolgoi mining complex in Mongolia, Entree Gold has a unique opportunity to participate in one of the world's largest copper-gold projects managed by a premier mining company - Rio Tinto. Oyu Tolgoi, with its series of deposits containing copper, gold and molybdenum, has been under exploration and development since the late 1990s. Phase 1 is on the verge of production, and Entree Gold could see first development production from the joint venture ground as early as 2015.
In addition to being on the path to production in Mongolia, Entree Gold has been advancing its Ann Mason Project in one of the world's most favourable mining jurisdictions, Nevada. The Ann Mason Project hosts a sizeable copper and molybdenum porphyry deposit within the rejuvenated Yerington copper camp. Based on the PEA announced in October, 2012, the Ann Mason Project is expected to yield a Base Case pre-tax, 7.5% net present value of $1.11 billion and an internal rate of return of 14.8%, using assumed copper, molybdenum, gold and silver prices of $3.00/lb, $13.50/lb, $1,200/oz and $22/oz.
Rio Tinto and Turquoise Hill Resources (formerly Ivanhoe Mines) are major shareholders of Entree, holding approximately 13% and 11% of issued and outstanding shares, respectively. Rio Tinto, through its majority ownership of Turquoise Hill Resources, beneficially owns 23.6% of Entree's issued and outstanding shares.

Cautionary Note to U.S. Readers Concerning Estimates of Measured, Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resources
The terms "mineral resource", "measured mineral resource", "indicated mineral resource" and "inferred mineral resource" are defined in and required to be disclosed by NI 43-101; however, these terms are not defined terms under the Securities Exchange Commission's Industry Guide 7 and normally are not permitted to be used in reports and registration statements filed with the SEC. Investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into reserves. "Inferred mineral resources" have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies, except in rare cases.
Accordingly, information contained in this news release containing descriptions of our mineral deposits may not be comparable to similar information made public by U.S. companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements under the United States federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.
