Detour Gold Corporation

TSX: DGC

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Dec. 16, 2008) - Detour Gold Corporation (TSX:DGC) ("Detour Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to report assay results for an additional 37 holes totaling 16,756 metres from its Phase II and III infill drilling program at its 100% owned Detour Lake project in northern Ontario. The drilling has been suspended for the holidays and is scheduled to resume on January 5, 2009. In 2008, the Company completed 121,506 metres of drilling in 316 holes and 231,104 metres in 621 holes on the Detour Lake deposit since it acquired the project in early 2007. Assays are pending for approximately 36,400 metres of drilling.

Today's results continue to indicate additional gold mineralization within the US$700 pit shell (mineral resource reported in Press Release dated July 2, 2008), which should positively impact the final pit design for the feasibility study expected in 2009.

Results from 19 holes drilled at the eastern end of the deposit (east end of former open pit) between sections 19,280E and 20,280E encountered significant gold mineralization within the US$700 pit shell. Of importance, on section 19,480E, hole DG-08-464 intersected 1.52 g/t over 42.5 metres and hole DG-08-470 intersected 2.01 g/t over 35.0 metres. In addition, hole DG-08-469 encountered 4.34 g/t (uncut) or 1.95 g/t (cut) over 91.0 metres in the footwall rocks (Sunday Lake Deformation Zone).

Results from ten holes infilling the centre of the deposit (Gap Zone between sections 18,620E and 19,240E) intersected significant gold mineralization in the core of the mineralized corridor. In particular, hole DG-08-424 intersected 4.19 g/t (uncut) or 2.48 g/t (cut) over 118.0 metres and DG-08-439 intersected 1.03 g/t over 77.0 metres and 4.02 g/t (uncut) or 2.74 g/t (cut) over 47.0 metres.

Additional gold mineralization was encountered in all eight holes drilled in the core of the Calcite Zone within the US$700 pit shell.

The best mineralized (uncut) intervals encountered are shown below.

In November 2008, the Company also completed an 8,000 metre infill drilling program on a 20 metre by 20 metre grid in the eastern portion of the deposit. The drilling focussed on an area of 80 metres along strike (19,420E to 19,500E) by 300 metre in width (north-south) to a depth of 160 metres. Results from this program are expected in early 2009. This program will further support the feasibility study since this portion of the deposit is scheduled to be mined in the first years of operation.

Complete tables of results, surface and longitudinal plans and cross-sections for the Detour Lake deposit are posted on the Company's website www.detourgold.com /Projects/Detour Lake or http://www.detourgold.com/s/LatestDr... or on the home page "Explore Detour Lake".

Detour Gold's exploration program is being managed by Project Manager, Mr. Roger Aubertin, P.Eng., a Qualified Person within the meaning of National Instrument 43-101. Mr. Aubertin has verified and approved the data disclosed in this release, including the sampling, analytical and test data underlying the information. Samples are prepared and assayed at SGS Minerals Services in Don Mills, Ontario, Canada. Analysis for gold is done on sawn half core samples using fire assay (AA finish). Samples with higher grade gold (greater than 5 g/t) are re-assayed using the pulp and metallics procedures. Standard reference materials, blank and field duplicate samples are inserted prior to shipment from site to monitor the quality control of the assay data. For additional information on Quality Assurance and Quality Control ("QA/QC"), refer to the press release dated April 11, 2007.

Forward-Looking Information

This press release contains certain forward-looking information as defined in applicable securities laws (referred to herein as "forward-looking statements"). Often, but not always, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as "plans", "expects", "is expected", "budget", "scheduled", "estimates", "continues", "forecasts", "projects", "predicts", "intends", "anticipates" or "believes", or variations of, or the negatives of, such words and phrases, or statements that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "should", "might" or "will" be taken, occur or be achieved. Specifically, this press release includes forward-looking statements regarding: the Company's planned drilling program and estimate of the quantity and quality of its mineral resources. Inherent in forward-looking statements are risks, uncertainties and other factors beyond the Company's ability to predict or control. These risks, uncertainties and other factors include, but are not limited to, the uncertainties involved in interpreting geological data and other risks involved in the gold exploration and development industry as well as those risk factors listed in the Company's Annual Information Form (AIF), Item 4.4 - "Description of Business - Risk Factors" filed on SEDAR. Readers are cautioned that the list of factors included in the AIF is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect the forward-looking statements. Actual results and developments are likely to differ, and may differ materially, from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in this press release. Such statements are based on a number of assumptions which may prove to be incorrect, including, but not limited to, the following assumptions: the Company's exploration and development activities on the Detour Lake Property will proceed in accordance with the Company's current timetables; and the Company's resource estimates, geological and metallurgical assumptions (including with respect to the size, grade and recoverability of mineral resources) and operational and price assumptions on which the resource estimates are based, are accurate. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the Company's actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any of its future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements herein are qualified by this cautionary statement. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. The Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly or otherwise revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information or future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

Information Concerning Estimates of Mineral Resources

This news release uses the terms 'measured', 'indicated' and 'inferred' resources. Detour Gold advises investors that although these terms are recognized and required by Canadian regulations (under National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects), the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission does not recognize them. Investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of the mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into reserves. In addition, 'inferred resources' have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and 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, or economic studies except for Preliminary Assessment as defined under 43-101. Investors are cautioned not to assume that part or all of an inferred resource exists, or is economically or legally mineable.
