Vancouver, British Columbia – NV Gold Corporation (TSX-V: NVX) (the “Company”) is pleased to report drill results from its completed follow-up 23-hole 2,560 meter reverse circulation drill program (announced July 26, 2011) on its 100 percent owned (subject to a 1 percent NSR) Afgan-Kobeh Gold Project located in Eureka County, Nevada.  Highlights from this program include hole 11-22, which returned 4.049 g Au/t over 16.8 meters (0.118 oz Au/ton over 55 feet), including 6.735 g Au/t over 9.1 meters (0.197 oz Au/ton over 30 feet).  Drill hole 11-22 is located on the northeastern margin of the NI 43-101 compliant gold resource of 66,000 ounces of gold (3.21 million tons at 0.021 oz Au/ton) in indicated resources and 55,000 ounces (3.97 million tons at 0.014 oz Au/ton) in inferred resources, using a cut-off of 0.006 oz Au/ton, delineated at Afgan in the June 13, 2011 technical report of the Company.  Drill hole 11-22 indicates the resource remains open to expansion to the east.

“The intercept encountered in Hole 22 demonstrates that more closely spaced drilling has the potential to add additional tonnage of higher grades and could enhance the average grade of the known resource,” stated John Watson, President and C.E.O. NV Gold Corporation. “The drill results also confirm the continuity of low-grade mineralization at the margins of our inferred resource.”

The objective of the 2011 follow-up drill program included infill and step-out drilling at the Afgan resource area, as well as testing of new targets at Kobeh.  A total of 2,560 meters (8,400 feet) of drilling was completed and samples were submitted for assay to ALS Chemex in Elko, Nevada.  All analyses have now been received.  The Afgan drilling returned encouraging results, with confirmation of the outlying, lower-grade projections of mineralization along the margins of the resource, in addition to the very encouraging intercept in hole 11-22.  Ten holes were completed in the northern portion of the project, in the Roberts Gold lease area,  but did not intersect any significant mineralization.  Two holes were drilled in the Kobeh area, south of the Afgan mineral resource, and those holes encountered anomalous gold and warrant follow-up with future drilling.

The following table summarizes significant results from the 2011 drill program:

Hole	Intercept (feet)	Length (feet)	Grade (g Au/t)	Grade (oz Au/ton)	Area or Zone
11-11	20 - 40	20	0.182	0.005	Afgan
11-14	35 - 65	30	0.720	0.021	Afgan
11-15	90 - 105	15	0.491	0.014	Afgan
	155 - 165	10	0.475	0.014	Afgan
11-16	45 - 70	25	0.195	0.006	Afgan
11-17	45 - 80	35	0.575	0.017	Afgan
11-20	255 - 295	40	0.269	0.008	Afgan
11-21	285 - 340	55	0.326	0.010	Afgan
11-22	120 - 180	55	4.049	0.118	Afgan
	incl.	30	6.735	0.197
11-23	320 - 355	35	0.351	0.010	Afgan

A total of 9 of the 13 holes drilled in the Afgan area intersected potentially economic mineralization.  Hole number 11-22 intersected a thick zone of strong mineralization, which remains open to the east and may connect to a similar zone drilled in 2010.  Data derived from previous exploration, including maps and reports, combined with 3D computer modeling were used to design the drill program.

The Afgan-Kobeh project is a Carlin-Type Gold system consisting of two contiguous parcels of land totaling over 4,250 acres controlled by the Company.  Included in this land block is a group of 109 unpatented claims covering an area of approximately 2,180 acres owned 100 percent by the Company (the Afgan-Kobeh block), subject to a 1 percent NSR, and a group of 104 unpatented claims covering an area of approximately 2,080 acres leased by the Company (the Roberts Gold block), subject to a 3 percent NSR.

The project’s potential is enhanced by its location near the southeastern portion of an alignment of mineral deposits, referred to as the Battle Mountain-Eureka Gold trend (also known as the Cortez trend), at its intersection with the Northern Nevada Rift. The project is located between the Gold Bar deposit (previously mined by Atlas Minerals; now controlled by U.S. Gold) and the currently producing Archimedes (Ruby Hill) gold mine of Barrick Gold Corp. The Cortez Trend and the Carlin Gold Trend (to the northeast) are widely believed to reflect major crustal structures and account for a significant number of the sediment-hosted, disseminated gold deposits in the western United States.

Assays reported herein were conducted by ALS Chemex in Elko, Nevada using a fire assay with an AA finish, with results greater than 3 g Au/t (0.088 oz Au/ton) being re-analyzed by fire assay with a gravimetric finish.

Michael Gustin, CPG, of Mine Development Associates, is the company’s qualified person on the Afgan Gold project.

NV Gold Corporation’s objective is to create shareholder value by identifying, acquiring, exploring, and developing advanced-stage gold projects within the major gold producing areas of Nevada and in Europe.
