      <description><![CDATA[<b>JULY 27, 2010 – LAVAL, QUEBEC</b> – First Gold Exploration Inc. (TSX.V: EFG) (FSE: F12) is pleased to report the most recent drill results for the Lac Pivert/Rose project. The table below shows the results for holes LR-10-44, LR-10-49 to LR-10-50 and LR-10-52, drilled to test the extension of the zones to the east. All these holes intersected mineralized zones over consistent thicknesses. These positive results demonstrate the continuity and consistency of the lithium, tantalum, rubidium, beryllium, gallium and cesium values.<br /><br /> The Company is receiving laboratory results every day now, having recently submitted samples from over 30 holes; these results will be released in the coming weeks. The Company is also pleased to report that more than 87 holes have been drilled to date, and that the mineralized zones have been intersected in every hole and appears to thicken going east.<br /><br />  The map showing the location of the holes is posted on the Company’s website at <a href="http://www.firstgoldexploration.com" target="_blank">www.firstgoldexploration.com</a>.<br /><br />    <b>THE NEW RESULTS OBTAINED TO DATE ARE AS FOLLOWS:</b><br><br><table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" width="450" style="font-size:11px; margin-top:15px;">

"We are very pleased with the results of the Prefeasibility Study which substantiates the quality of the Croinor gold project," commented Leon Methot, Blue Note's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "The present reserve base is an excellent starting point for the project and can be significantly expanded by upgrading the resource through a combination of infill and deep exploration drilling. We are progressing well with the permitting process and will continue to work expediently to bring this robust project into production."<br><br>

 
"I'm very pleased that our project is now ready for development with 185,000 ounces of reserves, a short payback period and a whopping 97% IRR. The future cash flows of the project will greatly benefit both Blue Note and First Gold Exploration.", comments Eric Leboeuf, President and Chief Executive Officer of First Gold Exploration."<br><br>


<b>Project Overview</b><br>
The Croinor gold deposit located approximately 70 km from Val-d'Or, Quebec, consists of 38 high grade gold bearing quartz veins and remains open at depth.  Recent production from the deposit totaled 8,081 ounces in three phases from two separate open pits from November 2003 to May 2005.  The material was processed at a nearby Val-d'Or milling facility.<br><br>

Gold mineralization is essentially associated with metasomatic pyrite located in quartz vein walls as well as in the strongly altered host-rock material of tectonic breccia. Gold occurs as inclusions within and along the edges of pyrite grains. Minor amounts of chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite are sometimes present with the pyrite. Occasionally, free gold is found within quartz veins of shear zones as well as in their strongly metasomatized walls.<br><br>

 
<b>Resource Estimation</b><br> 
After the open pit operations ceased in May 2005, two Mineral Resource estimates were completed for the Croinor gold project. The first was prepared in November 2005 by Carl Pelletier of InnovExplo Inc. and was entitled "NI 43-101 Technical Report for the Mineral Resource Estimate of the Croinor gold project". This formed the basis of the July 2009 Preliminary Economic Assessment by Francois Chabot of Golder Associates (the "PEA"). The second, prepared by Pierre O'Dowd in September 2009 entitled "NI 43-101 Resource Estimate Update and 2008 Technical Report on the Croinor 1 and 2 Projects", incorporated a 12,648-meter drill program conducted from 2007 to 2009. The latter forms the basis of the current Study.

<b>Reserve Estimation</b><br>
The PEA prepared by Golder Associates in July 2009 provided for a probable economic reserve of 309,000 tonnes based on the 2005 InnovExplo resource estimate.  The Prefeasibility Study provides for 689,829 tonnes based on the 2009 O'Dowd resource estimate and a gold price related reduction in the cut-off grade.<br><br>
  
This Study also provides a complete update on the information provided in the PEA and includes a detailed mine plan and project pricing and economic forecast updates.  Mill throughput increased by 109% compared to the PEA.  While the life of mine capital expenditures increased due to the increased mined tonnage, the increased production rate and other changes arising from the full review conducted during the Prefeasibility Study, the pre-tax cash flow rose to $47.4 million, an increase of 150% compared to the PEA.<br><br>
  
The underground mine reserves were determined using an undiluted cut-off grade of 5.0 g/t and minimum mining width of 1.8 metres.  The estimated proven and probable reserves totaled 185,260 oz after applying a mining recovery of 85% for room-and-pillar mining and 95% for long-hole mining, with a dilution factor of 5% for room-and-pillar stopes and 20% for long-hole stopes.

Improvements to the Golder Study</strong></p>




The primary reasons for the improvement over the Golder Study are:
<br><br>
-Resource increase in accordance with the O'Dowd report;<br><br> 
-Mine tonnage increase from 309,805 tonnes (82,877 ounces Au) to 689,829 tonnes (185,260 ounces Au);<br><br>
-Mill throughput increase from 400 tpd to 500 tpd;<br><br>
-Improved gold prices;<br><br>
-Recovered gold production increased from 80,806 ounces to 170,556 ounces;<br><br>
-Detailed mine plan completed to facilitate determination of proven and probable reserves;<br><br>
-Major contractors (including potential custom milling partners) and suppliers contacted for updated project pricing;<br><br>
-Implementation of cost reduction measure such as extension of the power line to service the site eliminating the use of high cost generators.<br><br>

<br><br>
 
<b>Mining</b><br>
The underground mine design provides for a mine plan containing 689,829 tonnes of ore assaying 8.35 g/tonne. Total mine ore production over the current five-year mine plan is expected to be 180,629 oz.<br>

The mining method will be 80/20 ratio of room-and-pillar mining and long  hole mining. For stopes less than 45 degrees the mining method will be room and  pillar with long hole for the remaining stopes. Contractors will be utilized for  all mine development, mine production and ore haulage activities. A small staff  workforce will be hired to provide technical support and direction to the  contractors.</p>

<strong><br>
Processing and  Metallurgy</strong><br>
Ore from Croinor will be processed at a mill in the Val-d’Or area which  will have excess capacity for the duration of the Croinor operation. Contact  has been made with potential custom milling partners and tentative commitments  have been arranged for processing the ore. Ore previously mined from the Croinor open pit  operations was processed at a mill in the area and based on actual results  achieved during these runs, a gold recovery of 97.5% has been used in this  Study.  42,000 tonnes of ore which will  be processed during the pre-production period is deemed to be capital  production and is not included in production nor is the revenue derived there  from.  Life of mine gold production is 170,556 ounces.<br><br>

<strong>Infrastructure</strong><br>
A 25 KV transmission line will be extended from the nearby Chimo mine  site to the Croinor site to supply electrical power for the site.

<p>The existing roads to and on the site will be upgraded to support  vehicle travel to and from the site including the offsite transportation of ore  for processing.</p>

<p>The mine will be dewatered and the existing 300-meter ramp and 2 km mine level development  will be reconditioned and extended to meet mine requirements. The existing  200-meter deep shaft will be reconditioned and used as a ventilation raise and  emergency escape way. Ore  and waste haulage to surface will be via ramp.</p>

<p>One existing building will be set up for use as a garage and additional  buildings will be constructed to serve as dry, offices and core shack. </p>

<strong><br>
Operating Costs</strong><br>
Operating costs over the life of mine are projected to average US$572  per oz. The  cost distribution is as follows:<br><br>

<b>Financial Details</b><br>
The financial analysis for the base case (Bloomberg consensus gold and exchange rate forecast) provides for a pre-tax undiscounted NPV of $47.4 M with an IRR of 97%. Discounted at 7%, the NPV is $35.9M. Using the 3-year trailing average, the project undiscounted NPV is $24.9M and the IRR is 52%.<br><br>

<b>Sensitivity analysis</b><br>
Sensitivity of the Croinor project to certain operating and financial factors has been analyzed in order to determine the robustness of the investment to the variation of these factors to those estimated.<br><br>

The sensitivity has been carried out on the economic model of the project and is represented as changes to the undiscounted Net Present Value (NPV) from the Bloomberg base case. The factors considered to have the greatest impact are the ore grade, gold price, operating cost and capital cost. The following table demonstrates the impact of 10 % and 20% changes in these parameters on the project undiscounted NPV.<br><br>

<b>OUTLOOK</b><br>
Subject to successful project financing, mine dewatering is expected to commence during the fourth quarter of 2010.  Commercial production is anticipated 14 months following commencement of dewatering.  During the pre-production period, 42,000 tonnes of ore will be processed and 10,073 oz of gold will be produced commencing in the 10th month following the announcement of the decision to commence mine dewatering.<br><br> 

The project exhibits significant opportunities to improve on the project economics:

<br><br>
	
-Completion of infill and down plunge exploration drilling aimed at expanding the current resources and reserves.  A 6,050-meter program is ongoing and will be completed during the fourth quarter of 2010;<br><br>
-Reinterpretation of the vein structure with further drilling could increase the ratio of lower cost long-hole stoping to room-and-pillar mining;<br><br>
-Mining of a small open-pitable resource located west of the existing west pit and recovery of remnant ore in the existing west pit;<br><br>
-Incorporation of technology such as gravity separation to reduce mill operating cost.<br><br>
-Evaluation of the potential to apply ore sorting technology at the Croinor site.<br><br>


<b><br>
Blue Note</b>, as operator of the joint venture, is proceeding with other engineering studies and reports required for the development of the project.  Blue Note expects to have everything in place to begin mine dewatering by the fourth quarter of 2010, subject to the receipt of the government approval to operate which is now expected to be received by the end of August.<br><br>

	  <title>FIRST GOLD EXPLORATION RETAINS RESOURCEX GROUP TO BROADEN COMPANY`S MARKET FOLLOWING</title> 
	  <category>Nouvelles</category> 
      <description><![CDATA[<b>JULY 12, 2010 - LAVAL, QUEBEC</b> - First Gold Exploration Inc. (TSX.V: EFG) (FSE: F12) is pleased to announce that it has retained the Resourcex Group of Vancouver to play a significant role in broadening EFG `s visibility in the North American markets. Resourcex Group is headed by James West, who is also the editor of The Midas Letter, a widely-circulated newsletter covering the resource sector. Mr. West is also published in a number of periodicals and Internet sites and is a speaker at major investor conferences throughout North America, as well as a frequent guest on Canadian financial and business television programs.<br><br>The service agreement with Resourcex Group is for a twelve-month period but may be terminated by either party at the end of any quarterly period. Resourcex will receive a fee of $5,000 per month for the 12-month term of the agreement, as well as a stock option to purchase up to 500,000 shares. The first 300,000 shares of the option are granted at the start of services and are exercisable at a price of $0.40 per share for a period of two years. The option vests as to one-quarter of the options granted on a quarterly basis over the ensuing year. If the agreement is extended beyond the initial 90-day period, Resourcex will be granted an option for an additional 200,000 shares at a strike price to be determined on or around October 1, 2010, also for a two-year term and subject to vesting on a quarterly basis over the ensuing year from the date of grant.<br><br>Commented Eric Leboeuf, President of First Gold Exploration:  "We are very pleased to have James West and the Resourcex Group join the Company `s expanding communications/IR team. With Michael Baybak and Company, Inc., which represents many prominent North American resource development companies, also handling our broader North American communications and marketing efforts, First Gold now has one of the more effective and qualified investment and IR professional teams in the industry building the Company `s visibility and its growing investor followings and ensuring that the markets understand the Company `s promising developments."<br><br>According to James West, President of the Resourcex Group,  "We only take on the best companies as clients, and after thorough due diligence. In our view, EFG `s diversified assets are dramatically undervalued, and intensive drilling is currently confirming an exceptional world-class deposit at the Company `s rare earth metals property in Quebec. We think the markets do not yet well understand the significant values presented by EFG, and our mission is to inform the investment community about this significant undervaluation.

	  <title>CROINOR PREFEASIBILITY STUDY EXPECTED IN JULY</title> 
	  <category>Nouvelles</category> 
      <description><![CDATA[<B>JUNE 28, 2010 - LAVAL, QUEBEC</B> - First Gold Exploration Inc. (TSX.V: EFG) (FSE: F12) is pleased to provide the following update on its Croinor gold project in the Val-d`Or region of Quebec.<BR><BR><B>Croinor Gold Project</B><BR>The Company is in the final stage of receipt of the operating permit for its Croinor gold project jointly owned with Blue Note Mining (TSX.V: BNT). This will allow for the commencement of mine dewatering and surface infrastructure construction activities over the coming months.<BR><BR>The results of the NI 43-101 compliant Prefeasibility Study being compiled by InnovExplo Inc. for an underground operation at Croinor is expected by mid-July. A positive Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) was previously completed in May 2009 based on a much earlier reported measured and indicated resource of 620,218 tonnes at 10.37g/t gold at a cut-off grade of 5.00 g/t gold and lower gold prices. Since then, significant drilling has expanded the resource to 814,228 tonnes at 9.11 g/t gold at the same cut-off grade.<BR><BR>At today`s gold price, the Croinor project presents good potential to be a reasonable size gold operation with production achievable by 2011. Existing infrastructure at the Croinor gold project includes a ramp to the 38-metre level and a shaft to the 160-metre level, in addition to 2 kms of drifts on four levels, surface access roads, water sedimentation pond and other surface infrastructure.<BR><BR>The previously announced two-phase drilling program currently underway at Croinor will be completed during the fourth quarter of 2010 (see news release of May 27, 2010). The first phase comprising 3,450 metres will largely target additional resources at depth, and the near surface mineralization west of the previously mined west pit will be tested for possible open pit potential. Phase 2 of the Croinor drill program will comprise 2,600 metres of follow up drilling.<BR><BR>John Martin, P. Eng., President and Chief Operating Officer of Blue Note Mining Inc., is a Qualified Person and has reviewed the technical information contained in this press release.<BR><BR><B>For more information, contact:</B><BR>Eric Leboeuf<BR>President and Chief Executive Officer<BR>514862-6889<BR><A href="mailto:president@firstgoldexploration.com">president@firstgoldexploration.com</A><BR><A href="/">www.firstgoldexploration.com</A><BR><BR><DIV style="TEXT-ALIGN: center" align=center><I>Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider(as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.</I></DIV>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[<B>JUNE 22, 2010 - LAVAL, QUEBEC</B> - First Gold Exploration Inc. (TSX.V: EFG) (FSE: F12) is pleased to report that the spodumine / lepidolite bearing structures have been traced and drilled constantly since hole LR-10-02. First Gold is now on Hole LR-10-73 and keeps intercepting the mineralized pegmatite dikes now up to 20 meters of thickness (twice the old average thickness from previous holes).<BR><BR>A map of proposed holes up to LR-10-95 is available on the company website.<BR><BR>First Gold is also expecting results from holes LR-10-43 to LR-10-59 shortly. Holes LR-10-60 to LR-10-73 will be sent to the lab within the next two weeks.<BR><BR>`Having these intercepts on this very wide area (see map) and having the mineralized dikes horizontal near the surface is simply amazing and an open-pit mine could be considered,`` comments Eric Leboeuf, president of First Gold.<BR><BR>Jean-Sebastien Lavallee (OGQ #773), a geologist, shareholder and director of the Company and a Qualified Person under NI 43-101, has reviewed and approved the technical content of this release.<BR><BR><B>For more information, contact:</B><BR>Eric Leboeuf<BR>President and Chief Executive Officer<BR>514 862-6889<BR><A href="mailto:president@firstgoldexploration.com">president@firstgoldexploration.com</A><BR><A href="">www.firstgoldexploration.com</A> <DIV align=center><P><BR><BR>Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange)accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.</P></DIV>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[<b>JUNE 3, 2010 – LAVAL, QUEBEC</b> – First Gold Exploration Inc. (TSX.V: EFG) (FSE: F12) is pleased to report the most recent drill results for the Lac Pivert/Rose project. The table below shows the results for holes LR-10-28 to LR-10-42. Holes LR-10-28 to LR-10-38 were drilled to test the extension of the zones toward the north, and all intersected the mineralized zones except Hole LR-10-32. The thickness of the zones appears to decrease toward the north, but new zones also appear to develop. Holes LR-10-39 to LR-10-42 were drilled to the east (see hole location map on the Company’s website) to test the continuity along strike. All four holes intersected the mineralized zone over sustained thicknesses. On the basis of these positive results that demonstrate the continuity and consistency of the lithium, rubidium, tantalum, beryllium and cesium values, the Company is pleased to announce that it has expanded its drilling program by an additional 7,500 metres to extend the surface area of the mineralized zones and test other mineralized showings.<br /><br />

<strong>Rubidium Rb (average of 32 ppm in earth’s crust):</strong><br />
Rubidium occurs abundantly, but is so widespread that production is limited. It is usually obtained from lithium production, and is used as a catalyst and in photocells and vacuum and cathode-ray tubes.<br /><br /> 
<strong>The price of 99.8 % pure rubidium metal is 1669.80 € for 100 g.</strong><br /><br />
<strong>Cesium Cs (average of 1 ppm in earth’s crust):</strong><br />
Cesium is found in pollucite [(Cs4Al4Si9O26).H2O] and as trace in lepidolite. It is used as a 'getter' to remove air traces in vacuum and cathode-ray tubes, and in the production of photoelectric devices and atomic clocks. Since it ionises readily, it is also used as an ion rocket motor propellant.<br /><br /> 
<strong>The price of 99.8 % pure cesium metal is 461.80 € for 50 g.</strong><br /><br />
<strong>Beryllium Be (average of 1.5 ppm in earth’s crust):</strong><br /> 
Beryllium is found mostly in minerals like beryl [AlBe3(Si6O18)] and chrysoberyl (Al2BeO4). Pure beryllium is obtained by chemically reducing beryl mineral, as well as by electrolysis of beryllium chloride. Its ability to absorb large amounts of heat makes it useful in spacecraft, missiles, aircraft, etc. Emeralds are beryl crystals with chromium traces, giving them their green colour.<br /> 
<br>
<strong> The price of 99.5 % pure beryllium lump is 200.70 € for 50 g.</strong><br /><br />

"The results are impressive. These subhorizontal plates (zones) on surface generate consistent results, with tantalum grades rising when lithium falls, and vice-versa. These "plates" now cover a surface area of approximately 1,000 metres by 350 metres. The Company’s goal is to increase the size of the mineralized zones and demonstrate the economic viability of the Lac Pivert/Rose project in the near term. We are no longer looking at just a lithium project, but rather a "poly-rare-metal" project. This project can be increasingly compared to Cabot Corp.’s (CBT-NYSE) Tanco mine in Manitoba, which has been in production for over 50 years," said Eric Leboeuf, President of First Gold.<br /><br />

All the samples were sent for analysis in sealed containers to the Chemex laboratory in Val-d’Or by employees of the Company. Chemex is the laboratory used for analysis of all samples from programs on the Lac Pivert/Rose property. The samples are weighed and identified prior to sample preparation. The samples are crushed to 70% minus 2 mm, then separation and pulverized to 85% passing 75 ?m.  All samples are analyzed using ICP-MS, with full analysis for 47 elements.<br /><br />

	  <title>ROSE AND SOUTHEAST ROSE SHOWINGS CONNECTED BY LATEST DRILLING</title> 
	  <category>Nouvelles</category> 
      <description><![CDATA[<B>JUNE 1, 2010</B> - LAVAL, QUEBEC - First Gold Exploration Inc. (TSX.V: EFG) (FSE: F12) is pleased to report that the latest holes drilled on the Lac Pivert/Rose property show that the main Rose showing is connected to the new Southeast Rose showing (see news release dated May 13, 2010). Seventeen new holes (LR-10-43 to LR-10-59) were drilled on two sections spaced 50 metres apart going east. On the more easterly section, the holes were drilled farther south to test the new Southeast Rose showing (LR-10-52 to LR-10-54). Addition holes LR-10-55 to LR-10-57 were drilled on three other sections spaced 50 metres apart to the east (see drill hole location map on the Company’s website), and confirmed the extension of the Southeast showing 150 metres to the east.<BR><BR>All these new holes intersected the mineralized zones over a thickness of from 3 to 18 metres, thereby increasing the surface area of the mineralized zone substantially. These positive results confirm the importance of the new structure and show that the property still has strong potential for the discovery of new showings.<BR><BR>The Lac Pivert/Rose property lies less than 5 km from the Eastmain 1 power house. There is substantial infrastructure already in place. An access road leads to within 0.5 km of the three discoveries (Rose and Southeast Rose showings and a new showing (see press release dated December 21, 2009)), and a power line crosses the property within 1 km of the showings.<BR><BR>A map showing the locations of the holes drilled to date can be found on First Gold’s website.<BR><BR>"Now that we have connected these two showings, this structure gives us a target of about 1,000 metres by 350 metres", said Eric Leboeuf, President of First Gold.<BR><BR>The Company also announces that it has granted 200,000 stock options to Richard Simpson, its senior exploration geologist based in Mexico. Each option entitles its holder to purchase one share of the Company at $0.40 for one year; any shares purchased are subject to a four-month hold period.<BR><BR>Jean-Sebastien Lavallee (OGQ No 773), a geologist, shareholder and director of the Company and a Qualified Person under NI 43-101, has reviewed and approved the technical content of this release.<BR><BR><B>For more information, contact:</B><BR>Eric Leboeuf<BR>President and Chief Executive Officer<BR>514 862-6889<BR><A href="mailto:president@firstgoldexploration.com">president@firstgoldexploration.com</A><BR><A href="">www.firstgoldexploration.com</A><BR><BR><DIV align=center><I>Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange)accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.</I></DIV>]]></description>

	  <title>FIRST GOLD AND BLUE NOTE COMMENCES DRILLING AT CROINOR</title> 
	  <category>Nouvelles</category> 
      <description><![CDATA[<STRONG>MAI 27TH, 2010 – LAVAL, QUEBEC</STRONG> – First Gold Exploration Inc. (TSX.V: EFG) (FSE: F12) and Blue Note Mining Inc. (TSX.V: BNT) reports that it has engaged Forages M. Rouillier Inc. / M. Rouillier Drilling Inc. to execute drill programs on the Company’s Croinor gold project located near Val-d’Or, Québec.<br><br>Work on the Croinor gold project will be jointly funded by First Gold Exploration and joint venture partner, Blue Note. The initial phase of drilling at Croinor has three objectives. 450 meters of drilling will be completed to test the ground stability of the crown pillar in the Croinor gold deposit. This will provide key information for the mine engineering plan for future mining operations. 2,750 meters of drilling will be completed to delineate potential resources below the current resource and to further test the mineralized diorite sill at depth. 250 meters of drilling will be completed to test near surface mineralization located west of the previously mined west pit for possible open pit potential. Phase 2 of the Croinor drill program consists of 2,600 meters of Phase 1 follow up drilling.<br><br>Measured and indicated resources at Croinor, as reported in September 2009, are estimated at 814,228 tonnes grading 9.11 g/t gold. Mineralization remains open at depth and potential exists to increase the current resource with infill drilling. A scoping study conducted by Golder Associates Ltd. and released in July 2009 based on a smaller resource and lower gold price provided for a pre-tax undiscounted cash flow of $19.1 million for the project. Based on gold at US$1,200/ounce and otherwise using the same parameters as Golder Associates Ltd., the project would generate a pre-tax undiscounted cash flow of $34.3 million.<br><br>John Martin, P. Eng., Chief Operating Officer, Blue Note Mining Inc., is a Qualified Person and has reviewed the technical information contained in this press release.<br><br><b>About Blue Note Mining</b><br />Blue Note Mining is a mineral exploration and mining company headquartered in Montreal with properties located in known gold regions of Canada, including the prolific Val-d'Or region of Quebec and northern New Brunswick. Blue Note’s first goal is to put the Croinor Gold Property into production. The company's shares trade on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol BNT.<br><br><b>About First Gold Exploration</b><br />The goal of the Company is to create shareholder value by acquiring promising projects that could be advanced to production stage in a short period of time. It has already done so with its Croinor project and is working to do the same with its other properties while keeping an eye open for new acquisitions.<br><br><b>Forward-Looking Statements</b><br />Forward-looking statements included or incorporated by reference in this document include statements with respect to (i) First Gold Exploration Inc.’s participation in the planned work described in the news release on the Croinor gold project (the “Work”), (ii) Blue Note’s participation in the Work and (iii) the revenues that may be derived from the Croinor gold project. Although Blue Note believes the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, they can give no assurances that these expectations will be achieved. Such assumptions, which may prove incorrect, include the following: (i) that First Gold Exploration Inc. has and will continue to have the financial resources to participate in the Work, (ii) that the amounts budgeted by Blue Note are sufficient so as to allow it to pursue the Work, (iii) that the Work can be achieved without unforeseen delays or expenses, (iv) that the Croinor gold project conforms in all material respects with the reports prepared under NI43-101 with respect to that deposit, and (v) if and when the Croinor gold project becomes operational, that the price of gold will remain no less than $1,200 per ounce during its operating life. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations include the effects of general economic conditions, the price of metals, actions by government or regulatory authorities, uncertainties associated with contract negotiations and execution, additional financing requirements, market acceptance of the products of Blue Note and competitive pressures. These factors and others are more fully discussed in Company filings with Canadian securities regulatory authorities.<br><br><b>For more information, please contact:</b><br />

These positive results confirm the magnitude of this new structure and indicate the property’s strong potential for the discovery of additional showings. The next drill holes will be planned to test the eastern extension of the Rose showing, as well as its possible relationship to the new zone (Southeast Rose).<br><br>
The Lac Pivert/Rose property lies less than 5 km from the Eastmain 1 power house. There is substantial infrastructure already in place. An access road leads to within 0.5 km of the three discoveries (Rose and Southeast Rose showings and a new showing (see press release dated December 21, 2009)) and a power line crosses the property within 1 km of the showings.<br><br> 

A map showing the locations of the new samples as well as the holes drilled to date can be found on First Gold’s website.<br><br>"As President and a major shareholder of First Gold, I feel very proud, lucky and grateful to have such an opportunity to bring all our projects to fruition," said Eric Leboeuf, President of First Gold. "We have achieved a lot in the last year, but I think the best is yet to come."<br><br>"To recap, so far our team keeps hitting home runs, and I congratulate them for their great due-diligence and analysis. Our call on the Croinor Gold project was a good one; the engineers are currently working on bringing it to the production stage, which could produced up to 80,000 ounces of gold at a cash cost of $422 US an ounces at today's exchange rate (see press release May 26th 2009; mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability). Now, this rare metals discovery of magnitude on Pivert/Rose gives First Gold another chance to send one out of the park."<br><br>"Also, I can't wait to attack our Mexican silver and base metal property in the coming months, as that property was chosen as carefully as the others. In French, we have the expression, jamais deux sans trois - literally, never two without three; let’s see if it holds here," Mr. Leboeuf concluded.<br><br>
 
First Gold has approximately $4.4 million in cash, no debt and 75,211,624 shares outstanding.<br><br>

      <description><![CDATA[<b>MAY 3RD, 2010 - LAVAL, QUEBEC</b> - First Gold Exploration Inc. (TSX: EFG) (FSE: F12) is pleased to confirm the continuity of the various mineralized zones discovered on its property. In fact, 30 of the 32 new holes drilled to date have intercepted mineralization. Results for holes LR-10-11 to LR-10-27 have been received and are shown in the table below. These new results confirm the extension of the zones over a surface area of more than 200 metres by 200 metres. Samples from holes LR-10-28 to LR-10-42 are now in the laboratory, and results will be released as soon as they are received. Positive results for these holes will substantially increase the size of the mineralized zones. Field crews will resume drilling and begin a prospecting program early next week. The Company is also pleased to announce that numerous spudomene-bearing outcrops have been discovered more than 500 metres from the site of drilling on the Rose showing. Geology crews will begin by mapping the new showings discovered to date in order to plan where to drill to assess their potential.<br><br>

The Lac Pivert/Rose property lies less than 5 km from the Eastmain 1 power house. There is substantial infrastructure already in place. An access road leads to within 0.5 km of the two discoveries (Rose showing and a new showing (see press release dated December 21, 2009)) and a power line crosses the property less than 1 km away from the showings.<br><br>


First Gold is also pleased to announce that it has retained the services of Innovexplo of Val-d’Or, Quebec, to prepare a 43-101 report on its flagship Pivert/Rose rare metals project. Innovexplo will also begin compiling historical drill results and will update the compilation as new results come in, which will allow the preparation of an initial 43-101 assessment and resource estimate for the discovery.<br><br>

<br>
Rubidium Rb (average of 32 ppm in earth’s crust):<br>

Rubidium occurs abundantly, but is so widespread that production is limited. It is usually obtained from lithium production, and is used as a catalyst and in photocells and vacuum and cathode-ray tubes. The price of 99.8 % pure rubidium metal is 1669.80 euro for 100 g.<br><br>

Cesium Cs (average of 1 ppm in earth’s crust):<br>
Cesium is found in pollucite [(Cs4Al4Si9O26).H2O] and as trace in lepidolite. It is used as a 'getter' to remove air traces in vacuum and cathode-ray tubes, and in the production of photoelectric devices and atomic clocks. Since it ionises readily, it is also used as an ion rocket motor propellant. The price of 99.8 % pure cesium metal is 461.80 euro for 50 g.<br><br>

Beryllium Be (average of 1.5 ppm in earth’s crust):<br>
Beryllium is found mostly in minerals like beryl [AlBe3(Si6O18)] and chrysoberyl (Al2BeO4). Pure beryllium is obtained by chemically reducing beryl mineral, as well as by electrolysis of beryllium chloride. Its ability to absorb large amounts of heat makes it useful in spacecraft, missiles, aircraft, etc. Emeralds are beryl crystals with chromium traces, giving them their green colour. The price of 99.5 % pure beryllium lump is 200.70 euro for 50 g.<br><br>

<strong>"All these Rare Metals are present in the drill cores up to multiple time the normal "earth’s crust average" on top of the strong Lithium and Tantalum grades, we just made a important step forward", comments Eric Leboeuf, president of First gold.</strong><br><br>

Samples were sent for analysis in sealed containers to the Chemex laboratory in Val-d’Or by employees of the Company. Chemex is the laboratory used for analysis of all samples from programs on the Lac Pivert/Rose property. The samples are weighed and identified prior to sample preparation. The samples are crushed to 70% minus 2 mm, then separation and pulverized to 85% passing 75 ?m. All samples are analyzed using ICP-MS, with full analysis for 47 elements.<br><br>

      <description><![CDATA[<b style="font-weight: bold;">APRIL 7, 2010</b><span style="font-weight: bold;"> - LAVAL, QUEBEC</span> - First Gold Exploration Inc. (TSXV: EFG) (FSE: F12) and Blue Note Mining Inc. (TSXV: BNT) report that the joint venture is undertaking a program to expand the gold-bearing mineral resource and to advance the project at the jointly-owned Croinor gold property, located near Val-d`Or in the Abitibi region of the Province of Québec.<br><br>The two companies have outlined a $1,250,000 work program. $700,000 will be allocated to a drill program aimed at delineating potential ore grade mineralization at depth in the Croinor deposit, where gold mineralization has been identified in widely-spaced drill holes, as well as to step out and further test the mineralized diorite sill at greater depths. <br><br>Several short holes will also test the near-surface potential of gold mineralization that has been identified to the west of the West Pit at Croinor. The joint venture also will spend approximately $550,000 on engineering projects pertaining to rock mechanics, environmental management and site reclamation and project feasibility.<br><br>Historical drilling at Croinor delineated a gold resource in a quartz vein system running from surface to approximately the 250-meter level. To date, 38 veins have been identified measuring an average of three meters at a grade of 10 grams per tonne. The structure remains open at depth. Blue Note and First Gold will also examine the feasibility of developing already-outlined near-surface gold mineralization. <br><br>The gold-vein resource at Croinor currently measures 238,000 ounces at a cutoff of five grams per tonne (see First Gold news release dated August 11, 2009). The near-surface resource, which was not included in a Preliminary Economic Assessment, could provide production tonnage during the initial months of operation while the underground mine is being brought into production.<br><br><div style="text-align: left;">Current infrastructure at the Croinor site includes a small maintenance building, a 200-meter deep shaft, a 300-meter long ramp and 2000 meters of lateral development on four levels, as well as roadways and waste and ore storage pads associated with previous open-pit mining operation.<br></div><br><div style="text-align: center;"><b>MEASURED AND INDICATED RESOURCES</b><br><br>Cut-off 5,00 g/t Au<br></div><br><table style="text-align: left; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" border="0" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0"><tbody><tr bgcolor="#cccccc"><td>Category</td><td>Tonnes</td><td>Gpt</td><td>Ounces</td></tr><tr><td><p>Total mesured</p></td><td>31 192</td><td>8,59</td><td>8 165</td></tr><tr><td>Total indicated</td><td>783 036</td><td>9,13</td><td>229 799</td></tr><tr><td>Total</td><td>814 228</td><td>9,11</td><td>238 414</td></tr></tbody></table><br>`This property has the potential to host significant gold mineralization at depth,` said John Martin, Blue Note`s Chief Operating Officer. `We are looking for further confirmation of the vein system mirroring itself at depth.`<br><br>`We drilled two holes to a depth of 350 meters and hit intersections measuring an average of three meters with an average grade of 11 grams per tonne,` said Eric Leboeuf, First Gold`s President and Chief Executive Officer.<br><br>`This work program is another step towards the development of the Croinor gold project. We are pleased to advance this project with the full co-operation of our joint venture partner,` added Mr. Martin.<br><br>An application for a Certificate of Authorization from the MEQ was submitted in January and is presently under review. The joint venture expects to obtain the operating permit in the second quarter of 2010.<br><br>John Martin, P. Eng., Chief Operating Officer of Blue Note Mining Inc., is a Qualified Person and has reviewed the technical information contained in this press release.<br><br>First Gold is presently organizing a private placement of a maximum of 10 million units at $0.20 per unit. Each unit consists of one common share and one common share purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles its holder to purchase one common share of First Gold at $0.30 for the next 24 months. The units are subject to a four-month hold period. The proceeds will be used for general working capital and exploration purposes.<br><br>Fist Gold is also announcing the termination of talks with Conway regarding a bridge loan and the possible sale of its interest in Croinor. The Company is continuing its efforts to substantially enhance the value of this asset for its shareholders. <br><br>Finally, First Gold is announcing the resignation of CFO Robert Boisjoli. The role of CFO will be filled on an interim basis by Nathalie Laurin, the corporate secretary.<br><br><b>About Blue Note Mining</b><br>Blue Note Mining is a mineral exploration and mining company headquartered in Montreal with properties located in known gold regions in Canada, including the prolific Val-d`Or region of Quebec and northern New Brunswick. The company`s shares trade on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol BNT.<br><br><b>About First Gold Exploration</b><br>The goal of the Company is to create shareholder value by acquiring promising projects that could be advanced to production stage in a short period of time. It has already done this with its Croinor project, and is working to do the same with its other properties while keeping an eye open for new acquisitions.<br><br><b>Forward-Looking Statements</b><br>This news release contains discussion of items that may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of securities laws that involve risks and uncertainties. Although the company believes the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, it can give no assurances that its expectations will be achieved.

	  <title>FIRST GOLD DISCOVERS GOLD ON ITS MATCHI-MANITOU PROPERTY NEAR VAL-D`OR, QUEBEC AND COMMENTS ON INSIDER TRADING</title> 
	  <category>Nouvelles</category> 
      <description><![CDATA[<B>MARCH 18, 2010 - LAVAL, QUEBEC</B> - First Gold Exploration Inc. (TSX.V: EFG) (FSE: F12) is pleased to announce that it has intersected a series of gold-bearing structures in one of the holes drilled this winter on the Matchi-Manitou property, near the Croinor mine, east of Val-d`Or in the Abitibi region.<BR><BR>The drilling program was designed to test two InfiniTEM anomalies identified in the northern part of the Matchi-Manitou property. The first two holes (MM10-01 and 02) tested the more northern anomaly, and three other holes (MM10-03, 04 and 05) were drilled on a stronger anomaly located about 1 km to the south. The InfiniTEM anomaly was explained by the presence of a massive pyrite horizon in the two holes farthest east (MM10-04 and 05). This massive sulphide horizon did not contain any base or precious metals.<BR><BR>The most westerly of the three holes (MM10-03) did not intersect the massive sulphide horizon, but did cut a silicified, pyritized structure injected with quartz-tourmaline-chlorite. The gold-bearing structure returned the following values:<BR><BR><DIV align=center><TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=5 width=450 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD vAlign=bottom width=83 bgColor=#cccccc><P>HOLE</P></TD><TD vAlign=bottom noWrap width=61 bgColor=#cccccc><P>FROM</P></TD><TD vAlign=bottom noWrap width=69 bgColor=#cccccc><P>TO</P></TD><TD vAlign=bottom noWrap width=147 bgColor=#cccccc><P>LENGTH<BR>downhole</P></TD><TD vAlign=bottom noWrap width=70 bgColor=#cccccc><P>GRADE</P></TD></TR><TR><TD vAlign=top width=83 bgColor=#cccccc><P>#</P></TD><TD vAlign=bottom noWrap width=61 bgColor=#cccccc><P>(m)</P></TD><TD vAlign=bottom noWrap width=69 bgColor=#cccccc><P>(m)</P></TD><TD vAlign=bottom noWrap width=147 bgColor=#cccccc><P>(m)*</P></TD><TD vAlign=bottom noWrap width=70 bgColor=#cccccc><P>(g/t)</P></TD></TR><TR><TD vAlign=top width=83><P>MM10-03<BR>MM10-03<BR>MM10-03<BR>MM10-03<BR>MM10-03</P></TD><TD vAlign=bottom noWrap width=61><P>314<BR>315<BR>318.86<BR>329.35<BR>340.7</P></TD><TD vAlign=bottom noWrap width=69><P>315<BR>315.61<BR>319.68<BR>330.35<BR>341.7</P></TD><TD vAlign=bottom noWrap width=147><P>1<BR>0.61<BR>0.82<BR>1<BR>1</P></TD><TD vAlign=bottom noWrap width=70><P><STRONG>6.57</STRONG><BR>0.393<BR>1.265<BR>1.58<BR>2.21</P></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE><P>* True widths have not yet been determined.

The area is entirely covered by overburden and has never been explored for gold. There is therefore real potential for a significant discovery. The Company has initiated a geological study to attempt to define the nature of this new showing. The study should generate a drilling proposal.<BR><BR>It should be noted that First Gold incurred over $495,000 on the Matcchi-Manitou project over the past three years, bringing its interest up to 71%, with the remaining 29% held by Brionor Resources (TSX.V: BNR).<BR><BR>`Our geology team has succeeded in making yet another discovery,` said Eric Leboeuf, President of First Gold. Pierre O`Dowd (OGQ #668), a Qualified Person under NI 43-101, has reviewed and approved the technical content of this release. Mr. O`Dowd has over 32 years of experience in mining exploration in Canada and abroad, many of which he acquired with companies like Falconbridge, Noranda and Cambior (Doyon Mine) before forming his own consulting firm in 1995.<BR><BR>The Company also analysed the TSX insider trading reports since the 21st of January of 2010 and has found a major discrepancy with their filings.<BR><BR>Insider sells since the 21st of January are of approximately 2,025,000 shares till March 8th 2010 (visit <A href="http://www.sedi.ca" target=_blank>www.sedi.ca</A>) only on big volume days and the TSX has declared much more, approximately 4,500,000 shares sold, thousands of shares nearly every day. Note that the TSX has no control on these filings since the accounts that were selling had an insider code.<BR><BR>First Gold has found that a company that used to own more than 10% of the outstanding shares of First Gold was still declaring as an insider.

	  <title>DRILLING CONTINUES TO INTERCEPT THE MINERALIZED ZONE </title> 
	  <category>Nouvelles</category> 
      <description><![CDATA[<B>MARCH 16, 2010</B> - LAVAL, QUEBEC – First Gold Exploration Inc. (TSX-V: EFG) (FSE: F12) is pleased to report that two new drill holes have been completed on its Lac Pivert/Rose property. The two holes drilled to date have extended the zone another 30 metres south. The ground crew has also identified a zone mineralized in spudomene and lepidolite about 80 metres south of Hole LR-09-10. Hole LR-10-11 was drilled vertically at the same location as Hole LR-09-10 to test the structural interpretation. Hole LR-10-11 confirmed that the mineralized zone is horizontal. The team of geologists is in the process of logging the core and sampling the mineralized zone. The samples will be sent to the ALS Chemex laboratory in the coming days. The drilling crew continues to work at the rate of 1 to 2 holes per day.

Boisvert (1989) describes a variety of lithologies in the region, including biotite schists and gneisses, basalts, dacites, quartzites, conglomerates, gabbros, granites and pegmatites. Lithologies are generally well foliated with a southeasterly direction, except for the more massive, unfoliated granites and pegmatites. The Lac Pivert and Rose properties host pegmatites that occur as irregular but generally continuous lenses within the biotite schists. Individual pegmatites can attain up to 60 m in width and more than 100 m in length, collectively forming part of a much larger body kilometric in length and up to 300 m wide.<BR></B><BR>Carlson (1962 MRNFQ report RP 483) identified pegmatites enriched in Rare Earth Elements in the region. Additional work by the <EM>Ministère des ressources naturelles et de la faune Québec</EM> (“MRNFQ”) uncovered the Rose and Lac Pivert showings in 1961, with a similar metallogenic context to that of Lithium One’s Cyr Lithium discovery.<BR></B><BR>The Lac Pivert showing consists of a pegmatite containing 20% spodumene (a lithium aluminum silicate), beryl (a beryllium aluminum silicate) and trace molybdenite (a molybdenum sulphide). Grab samples returned up to 2.09% Li2O.<BR></B><BR>The Rose showing consists of a number of en-echelon pegmatite dikes, individually up to 15 m wide, crosscut by centimetric quartz veins. Spodumene and lepidolite (a potassium lithium aluminum silicate) can form centimetric lenses locally composing up to 40% of the pegmatites. Drilling on this showing returned values of up to 1.5% Li2O, 2,755 g/t Rb, 290 ppm Ta2O5 and 155 g/t Be over 13.4 metres.<BR></B><BR>This type of pegmatite is also associated with the Preissac-Lacorne batholith further south in the Abitibi region near Val-d’Or, where it was mined at the Québec Lithium mine (Boily, 1995; Mulja et al., 1995; Ste-Croix et Doucet, 2001).<BR></B><BR>Jean-Sebastien Lavallee (OGQ 773), Director of the Company and Qualified Person under NI 43-101, has reviewed and approved the technical content of this release.

northeastern segment of the Superior Geological Province within the Eastmain Greenstone Belt (NTS Map-Sheet 33C/1). Boisvert (1989) describes a variety of lithologies in the region, including biotite schists and gneisses, basalts, dacites, quartzites, conglomerates, gabbros, granites and pegmatites. Lithologies are generally well foliated with a southeasterly direction, except for the more massive, unfoliated granites and pegmatites. The Lac Pivert and Rose properties host pegmatites that occur as irregular but generally continuous lenses within the biotite schists. Individual pegmatites can attain up to 60 m in width and more than 100 m in length, collectively forming part of a much larger body kilometric in length and up to 300 m wide.<BR><BR>Carlson (1962 MRNFQ report RP 483) identified pegmatites enriched in Rare Earth Elements in the region. Additional work by the <EM>Ministère des ressources naturelles et de la faune Québec</EM> (“MRNFQ”) uncovered the Rose and Lac Pivert showings in 1961, with a similar metallogenic context to that of Lithium One’s Cyr Lithium discovery.<BR><BR>The Lac Pivert showing consists of a pegmatite containing 20% spodumene (a lithium aluminum silicate), beryl (a beryllium aluminum silicate) and trace molybdenite (a molybdenum sulphide). Grab samples returned up to 2.09% Li2O.<BR><BR>The Rose showing consists of a number of en-echelon pegmatite dikes, individually up to 15 m wide, crosscut by centimetric quartz veins. Spodumene and lepidolite (a potassium lithium aluminum silicate) can form centimetric lenses locally composing up to 40% of the pegmatites. Drilling on this showing returned values of up to 1.5% Li2O, 2,755 g/t Rb, 290 ppm Ta2O5 and 155 g/t Be over 13.4 metres.<BR><BR>This type of pegmatite is also associated with the Preissac-Lacorne batholith further south in the Abitibi region near Val-d’Or, where it was mined at the Québec Lithium mine (Boily, 1995; Mulja et al., 1995; Ste-Croix et Doucet, 2001).<BR><BR>Jean-Sebastien Lavallee (OGQ #773), Director of the Company and Qualified Person under NI 43-101, has reviewed and approved the technical content of this release.

	  <title>RARE METALS AND HIGH LITHIUM GRADES DISCOVERED ON THE PIVERT/ROSE PROPERTY </title>

      <description><![CDATA[<b>JANUARY 21, 2010</b> - LAVAL, QUEBEC - First Gold Exploration Inc. (TSX: EFG) (FSE: F12) (the Company) is pleased to announce the discovery of rare metals on its Pivert/Rose property, along with up to 4.6% Li2O.<br><br> First Gold Exploration is truly thrilled to announce the results of analyses from the new Lithium showing discovered during the winter drilling program, when two samples were taken. The results for these two samples show that a zone very rich in lithium and containing significant quantities of rare metals (rubidium, tantalum, beryllium, niobium and gallium) has been discovered on the Company’s property. This discovery is in a zone more than 2.4 km northeast of the Rose showing and 2.5 km south of the Pivert showing. Results are as follows:<br><br>         <table cellpadding="5" cellspacing="5"> <tbody><tr> <td valign="top" width="175"><strong>Non chosen Grab Sample #430917:</strong></td><td valign="top" width="150">4.6 % Li2O;<br>390 g/t Rb;<br>51.4 g/t Ta;<br>67.7 g/t Nb;<br>106.5 g/t Ga;<br>90 g/t Be.</td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" width="175"><strong>Non chosen Grab Sample #430918:</strong></td> <td valign="top" width="150">3.17 % Li2O;<br>1,290 g/t Rb;<br>44.3 g/t Ta;<br>72.6 g/t Nb;<br>92.9 g/t Ga;<br>65.1 g/t Be.</td> </tr> </tbody></table><br><br>The Pivert/Rose showing lies in a geological setting similar to that of the Cyr project belonging to Lithium One (TSX: LI), both in terms of geology and mineralization. However, the dikes on First Gold’s property contain more spodumene and a large amount of lepidolite (associated with rubidium). The various dikes intersected are open in all directions. <br><br>First Gold is in the process of compiling the results for Hole LR-09-02, which should be released in the coming days. The Company believes that Lac Pivert/Rose lithium property is a lithium and rare metals prospect. Significant zones of lithium, rubidium, tantalum, niobium, beryllium and gallium have been intersected.

	  <title>DISCOVERY ON PIVERT/ROSE LITHIUM</title> 
	  <category>Nouvelles</category> 
      <description><![CDATA[<b>JANUARY 19, 2010</b> - LAVAL, QUEBEC - First Gold Exploration Inc. (TSX: EFG) (FSE: F12) (the "Company") ispleased to announce the success of the first phase of exploration on its Pivert/Rose lithium property.<br><br>A 1,407-metre drilling program was carried out on the property in December 2009. Thirteen exploration holes100 to 200 metres deep were drilled to test the lateral and depth extensions of zones identified on surface thatreturned significant lithium values (see December 12, 2009 press release).<br><br>The results exceeded expectations, with 9 of the 13 holes intersecting one or more mineralized zonescontaining spodumene/lepidolite. The recent program led to the discover of two new zone ranging in thicknessfrom 3.6 to 13.5 metres. The new zones appear to be parallel to the surface showing. These new zones lie atvertical depths of ±25 and 75 metres, and also contain spodumene/lepidolite. The intersections obtained on theRose showing have allowed the various zones to be outlined over a width of 100 metres and a verticalextension of over 75 metres, with thicknesses of up to 13.5 metres. In light of the results from this drillingprogram, the new parallel zones and the significant widths, a 7,500-metre drilling program is planned for nextsummer to allow a 43-101 open pit resource to be estimated for the project.

First Gold is very pleased that every sample has tested positive for Li on this 50.3 Square Km. property, comments Eric Leboeuf, president of First Gold.<br /><br />
The recent work has also permitted to identifie numerous structures of new spodumene pegmatite dykes in the area of the Rose Showing. These dykes are parallel with the Rose showing dyke and contain up to 30% of spodumene-Lepidolite. The geological crew can see these new dykes on over 50 meters length and 20 meters wide. More works is required to define the size and the potential of the new mineralized zone. The samples were taken from outcrops, within a well mineralized Lithium showing, containing up to 20% Spodumene-Lepidolite mineralization. The host rock is composed of a pink-white pegmatite. The samples were assayed at the Technilab laboratory facility in Val-d’Or, Quebec.<br /><br />


 
<b>PROPERTIES DESCRIPTION</b><br />
The properties are contiguous and located 50 km south-southeast of, and along strike to, the Cyr lithium discovery by Lithium One and 75 kilometres due south of Goldcorp Inc.'s Eleonore gold deposit.
The properties lie in the northeastern segment of the superior geological province within the Eastmain greenstone belt (NTS Map-Sheet 33C/1). Boisvert (1989) describes a variety of lithologies in the region including biotite schists and gneisses, basalts, dacites, quartzites, conglomerates, gabbros, granites and pegmatites. Lithologies are generally well foliated and oriented southeasterly, except for the more massive and unfoliated granites and pegmatites. The Lac Pivert and Rose properties host pegmatites, occurring as irregular but generally continuous lenses within the biotite schists. Individual pegmatites can attain up to 60 metres in width and more than 100 metres in length, collectively forming part of a much larger bodies having kilometric lengths and widths up to 300 metres.<br /><br />
Carlson (1962; MRNFQ report RP 483) identified pegmatites enriched in rare earth elements in the region. Additional work by the Ministere des ressources naturelles et de la faune Quebec (MRNFQ) uncovered two showings on the property, named the Rose and Lac Pivert showings, both discovered in 1961, with a similar metallogenic context to that of the Cyr lithium discovery of Lithium One.<br /><br />
<strong>The Lac Pivert property </strong>(MRNFQ fiche de gite 33C/01-0005) consists of a pegmatite containing 20 per cent spodumene (a lithium aluminum silicate), beryl (a beryllium aluminum silicate) and trace molybdenite (a molybdenum sulphide). Grab samples gave up to 1.16 per cent lithium (2.5 per cent Li2O) and 74 parts per million beryllium (MRNFQ, 2001).<br /><br />
<strong>The Rose property</strong> consists of a number of en-echelon pegmatites, individually up to 15 metres wide, crosscut by centimetric quartz veins. Spodumene and lepidolite (a potassium lithium aluminum silicate) can form centimetric lenses locally making up to 40 per cent of the pegmatites (MRNFQ, 2001). Grab samples contained up to 0.21 per cent (0.452 per cent Li2O) Lithium and 129 parts per million Beryllium.<br /><br />
Previous regional work on Rose and Lac Pivert properties (Carlson, 1962) identified grab sample containing rare Hearth up to 2.5 per cent Li2O, up to 1,300 parts per million rubidium, up to 130 parts per million beryllium, up to 70 parts per million niobium and up to 50 parts per million tantalum, which is typical of the albite-spodumene pegmatites (Cerny, 1991). This type of pegmatite is also associated with the Preissac-Lacorne batholith further south in the Abitibi greenstone belt, near Val-d'Or, where it was extracted at the Quebec lithium mine (Boily, 1995; Mulja and others, 1995; Ste-Croix and Doucet, 2001).<br /><br />

It is located within the Sierra Madre del Sur, therefore in the southern portion of the precious metal belt.  This portion of the belt is characterized by a high Silver/Gold ratio.  Approximately 30 quartz-sulphide veins have been discovered in the district so far.  They are hosted in a weathered granodiorite.  According to the vendors, the veins run for 400-500 metres and their average thickness is in the order of 1.5 metres.  Historical and recent sampling indicates that the veins carry grades above 500 g/t Ag, 1-2% Pb and 1-2% Zn.  These epithermal veins hosts a variety ofsulphide minerals such as argentite, pyrite, galena, sphalerite, arsenopyrite and chalcopyrite.  The following table was provided by the vendors.

      <description><![CDATA[<P><BR><STRONG>NOVEMBER 4, 2009</STRONG> - LAVAL, QUEBEC -&nbsp;<STRONG>FIRST GOLD EXPLORATION INC.</STRONG>&nbsp;(TSX: EFG) (FSE: F12) is pleased to announce that for the last 4 months, (50-50 JV partners) First Gold Exploration and X-Ore Resources (TSX : XOR) have been working with engineering firms in order to complete the required reports in view of the underground permitting applications for the Croinor Project. We are confident that the permitting will be delivered by the first quarter of 2010.<BR><BR></P>
<P>Based on the scoping study done by Golder Associates, the economics of the project has improved in line with the higher gold prices (see release of May 26, 2009).<BR><BR></P>
<P>At today`s gold price, the net cash flow over 2.3 years would be approximately $31,000,000 which is an increase of $10,000,000 over the base case scenario which does not take into account the increase in resources resulting from the recent 43-101 resource study released in August (see release of August 11, 2009). <BR><BR></P>
<P>First Gold also has crews at work on its Lac Pivert / Rose Lithium property; work was successful in defining targets and samples have been collected and sent for analysis. Results will be released as they become available.<BR><BR></P>

	  <title>FIRST GOLD ACQUIRES 2 LITHIUM PROPERTIES IN QUEBEC EASTMAIN GREENSTONE BELT</title> 
	  <category>Nouvelles</category> 
      <description><![CDATA[<span>Lac Pivert Property yield 2.5% Li2O or 11,600 ppm of Li and 74 ppm of Beryllium (Be).</span><br><br>Historical results on Pivert Property also yielded 40,800 ppm of Molybdenum (4.08% Mo).<br><br>Previous regional work identified regional occurrences of 1300 ppm of Rubidium (Rb).<br><br><b>Properties Description</b><br>The Properties are contiguous and located 50 km south-southeast of, and along strike to the Cyr Lithium Discovery by Lithium One (TSX-V: LI) and 75 km due south of Goldcorp`s Eleonore Gold Deposit (TSX: G).<br><br> The Properties lies in the northeastern segment of the Superior Geological Province within the Eastmain Greenstone Belt (NTS Map-Sheet 33C/1). Boisvert (1989) describes a variety of lithologies in the region including biotite schists and gneisses, basalts, dacites, quartzites, conglomerates, gabbros, granites and pegmatites. Lithologies are generally well foliated and oriented southeasterly, except for the more massive and unfoliated granites and pegmatites. The Lac Pivert and Rose Properties host pegmatites, occurring as irregular but generally continuous lenses within the biotite schists. Individual pegmatites can attain up to 60 m in width and more than 100 m in length, collectively forming part of a much larger bodies having kilometric lengths and widths up to 300 m.<br><br>Carlson (1962 MRNFQ report RP 483) identified pegmatites entiched in Rare Earth Elements or REE’s in the region. Additional work by the Ministère des ressources naturelles et de la faune Québec (MRNFQ) uncovered two showings on the Property, named the Rose and Lac Pivert Showings, both discovered in 1961) with a similar metallogenic context to that of the Cyr Lithium Discovery of Lithium One.<br><br> <b>The Lac Pivert Property</b> (MRNFQ Fiche de Gîte 33C 01-0005) consists of a pegmatite containing 20% spodumene (a lithium aluminum silicate), beryl (a beryllium aluminum silicate) and trace molybdenite (a molybdenum sulphide). Grab samples gave up to 1.16% Lithium (2.5% Li2O) and 74 ppm Beryllium (MRNFQ, 2001).<br><br><b>The Rose Property</b> consists of a number of en-echelon pegmatites, individually up to 15 m wide, crosscut by centimetric quartz veins. Spodumene and lepidolite (a potassium lithium aluminum silicate) can form centimetric lenses locally making up to 40% of the pegmatites (MRNFQ 2001). Grab samples contained up to 0.21% (0.452% Li2O) Lithium and 129 ppm Beryllium.<br><br>Previous regional work on Rose and Lac Pivert properties (Carlson 1962) identified grab sample containing rare Hearth up to 2.5% Li2O up to 1.300 ppm Rubidium up to 130 ppm Beryllium up to 70 ppm Niobium and up to 50 ppm Tantalum which is typical of the albite-spodumene pegmatites (Cerny 1991). This type of pegmatite is also associated with the Preissac-Lacorne Batholith further south in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt near Val-d’Or where it was extracted at the Quebec Lithium Mine (Boily 1995 Mulja et al. 1995 Ste-Croix and Doucet 2001).<br><br><b>
Terms of Acquisition</b><br>In order for First Gold to acquire an initial 51% Property interest the Company must pay to arm’s length parties a total of $30000 and issue a total of 3 million shares at the signing of the Final Agreement and upon regulatory approval; in addition to completing $300000 in exploration and/or development work on or before the First Anniversary of the signing of the Final Agreement.<br><br>On the First Anniversary date and the $300000 work expenditure First Gold will have acquired the 51% Property interest and will have an Option to acquire an additional 14% Property interest by issuing 1 million shares to the Vendors and complete $500000 in exploration and development work on the Property on or before the Second Anniversary of the signing of the Final Agreement.<br><br> On the Second Anniversary date and the $500000 work expenditure First Gold will have acquired a 65% Property interest and will have an additional Option to acquire an additional 20% Property interest by issuing 1 million shares to the Vendors and complete $1 million in exploration and development work on the Property on or before the Third Anniversary of the signing of the Final Agreement. Once vetted First Gold will have acquired the 85% Property interest and a joint venture would be formed with the Vendors.<br><br>The Vendors will retain a 2% Net Smelter Returns Royalty of which 1% could be bought back by First Gold for $1 million. If First Gold outlines a minimum NI 43-101 compliant mineral resource of 125000 tonnes grading 0.8% Li2O or more for 220000000 million pounds of Li2O the Company will then issue 3 million shares to the Vendor. First Gold will be required to complete the initial payments and share issue as well as the First and Second Anniversary commitments otherwise the claims will revert to the Vendors.<br><br> The Company shall pay a finders fee to arm’s length third parties in connection with this proposed properties acquisition in accordance with TSX Venture Exchange Policies.<br><br> Mr. Pierre O’Dowd (OGQ  668) a Qualified Person under NI 43-101 has revised and approved the technical content of this release.

</title>

      <description><![CDATA[<b>LAVAL, QUEBEC, AUGUST 11, 2009</b> –   Managements of joint-venture partners (TSX Venture Exchange: EFG) (Frankfurt Exchange: F12) and X-Ore Resources (TSX Venture Exchange: XOR) are pleased to release a new NI43-101 compliant resource estimate for the Croinor property, located east of the town of Val-d’Or, Abitibi, Quebec.<br /><br />

This new resource estimate follows two years of intensive exploration drilling (approx. 13,000 metres) along the down dip and lateral extensions of the Croinor gold deposit.  All results have been compiled and a re-interpretation of the entire deposit was performed.  It is now believed that the deposit consists of numerous east-west elongated, shallowly north dipping and plunging mineralized shoots.  This is a significant change from previous interpretations which indicated a series of discontinuous tabular structures.  Individual mineralized shoot extends laterally from 50 metres up to 250 metres.<br /><br />  

The following tables show the indicated resource and the measured resource for each vein and finally a summary of the indicated and measured resources at cut-off grades of 5 g/t Au (base case for the resource estimate) and 7 g/t Au.

This new NI43-101 compliant resource estimate was performed by Pierre O’Dowd, P. Geo., independent consulting geologist and Qualified Person under NI43-101, based on the review of 832 diamond drill holes and all available technical information and previous report.  The latter used the same geological parameters as the ones used by the firm InnovExplo for its 2005 estimate.  The main parameters are:<ul>
<li>Minimum mining width of 1.8 m;</li>
<li>Polygons drawn on cross sections;</li>
<li>Polygons extend vertically and laterally to half the distance in between intercepts to a maximum of 20 metres;</li>
<li>Grade capped at 65 g/t Au;</li>
<li>Specific gravity of 2.8;</li>
<li>5 g/t Au cut off as base case.</li></ul>

This current estimate shows a 15% increase in the number of ounces of gold over the 2005 estimate (from 206,792 oz Au to 238,414 oz Au).  As noted above, the average grade of the deposit, using 5 g/t Au cut off grade, was established at 9.11 g/t Au.  A technical report presenting all information pertaining to the resource estimate, in conformity to Appendix A1 of NI43-101, will be filed shortly on Sedar within the prescribed time frame.<br /><br />

In recent news, it was announced that a scoping study was completed based on the 2005 resource estimate (July 2009).  The scoping study, performed by Golder and Associates of Val-d’Or, indicates that approximately 80,000 ounces of gold could potentially be extracted economically at Croinor.  It is believed that, based on the new resource estimate and the new geological model for the mineralization, the economics of the deposit can be further improved.  The partners, First Gold and X-Ore, have now started the procedures to obtain necessary permits to initiate the rehabilitation of the underground workings.  Note that this scoping study is preliminary in nature and includes mineral resources that are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability.  There is no certainty that the preliminary assessment will be realized as presented since certain engineering parameters related to construction, environment and rocks mechanics will have to be validated at the preproduction phase.

The revised model for the deposit opens a significant area of prospective ground which will hopefully increase resources while the development of the deposit is ongoing.  Previous programs targeted the up and down dip extensions of known auriferous intercepts.  Future drilling programs will target lateral extensions which exhibit a much better continuity.<br /><br />

Mr. O’Dowd has accumulated more than 30 years in exploration experience in Canada and worldwide having worked with companies such as Falconbridge, Noranda, Cambior (Doyon Mine) before starting his consulting firm in 1995.<br /><br />

      <description><![CDATA[<b>Laval, Quebec, July 15, 2009</b> - First Gold Exploration Inc. (the "Company" or "First Gold") (TSXVenture Exchange: EFG) (Frankfurt Exchange: F12) and X-Ore Resources (TSX Venture Exchange: XOR) are pleased to announce the filing on Sedar of Golder’s Preliminary Economic Evaluation (Scoping Study) on the Croinor gold project located near Val-d’Or, Quebec. The study was prepared by Francois Chabot, P.Eng under engineering firm Golder Associates and confirms that the Croinor gold deposit has the potential to be an economic underground mining operation with production achievable within one year (see release of May 26, 2009).<br><br>The scoping study highlights the following:<ul> <li>Production of approximately 35,000 ounces per year at a cash cost of US $492 per ounce (Canadian-US exchange rate of 1.2)</li> <li>Pretax internal rate of return of 205 per cent at US $850 gold price (Canadian-US exchange rate of 1.2)</li><li>Total capital investment of $11 million</li> <li>10-month pre-production period</li></ul><br>The short lead-time to start-up and low capital cost is attributed to the availability of fully permitted plants located within 100km of the site for custom milling, and the existing underground infrastructure including a ramp to the 125 ft level and shaft to the 525 ft level, as well as more than 2km of drifts on four levels, all-weather roads and water sedimentation pond and building. Note that this preliminary assessment is preliminary in nature and includes mineral resources that are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no certainty that the preliminary assessment will be realized as presented since certain engineering parameters related to construction, environment and rocks mechanics will have to be validated at the preproduction phase.<br><br>In addition, the report indicates excellent potential to delineate additional resources at Croinor over that reported in the 43-101 report by Innovexplo Inc. in November 2005 (filed on Sedar) as this data is based on information to the 200 metre level only, and has been extended to 300 metres by subsequent drilling campaigns by First Gold in 2007 and 2008 (see press release November 21, 2008).<br><br><b>Engagement of Minvestec Capital Corp.</b><br><br> The companies are also pleased to announce the engagement of Toronto-based Minvestec Capital Corp. to evaluate and advise on strategic alternatives to maximize the value of the jointly-owned gold project. These alternatives may include financing to advance the Croinor Project to production, a business transaction with a strategic partner, or any number of available options. The management and the board of directors of both First Gold and X-Ore will work with Minvestec to ensure that all alternatives available to both Companies are properly considered and evaluated.<br><br> Leon Methot, Chairman of X-Ore and Eric Leboeuf, President and CEO of First Gold jointly commented, "We are pleased to have the services of Minvestec to maximize the value of our important asset for our shareholders. The principal of Minvestec Capital, Ms. Minh-Thu Dao-Huy, has over twenty-seven years of experience in successfully handling investment banking transactions for the Mining Sector globally. After a successful eight years as a corporate finance executive at Merrill Lynch Canada Mining Team, Minh-Thu co-founded IBK Capital Corp. in 1989 and for twenty years was instrumental in transforming IBK into a major player in financing the junior mining resource sector, helping its clients raised over $500 million in capital, globally.<br><br> 
We know that Minvestec has a worldwide network of contacts to help us evaluate the full range of alternatives available to us. Management and the board firmly believe that Minvestec will help both our companies unlock the true value of our gold assets for the substantial benefit of our shareholders, in light of a very strong gold market.<br>

	  <title>SCOPING STUDY CONFIRMS ECONOMIC POTENTIAL 
FOR GOLD PRODUCTION AT CROINOR GOLD DEPOSIT
</title> 
	  <category>Nouvelles</category> 
      <description><![CDATA[<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">LAVAL, QUEBEC, MAY 26, 2009 </span>- First Gold Exploration Inc. (the `Company` or `First Gold`) (TSX Venture Exchange: EFG) (Frankfurt Exchange: F12) and X-ORE Resources (TSX Venture Exchange: XOR) are pleased to announce the results of a Scoping Study (Preliminary Economic Evaluation) on the Croinor Gold Deposit located near Val-d`Or, Quebec. </p><p>The study was prepared by Francois Chabot, Eng., M.S., a Qualified Person under NI 43-101 guidelines, under engineering firm Golder Associates (`Golder`). The study confirms that the Croinor Gold Deposit is potentially economic at current gold prices with production achievable within one year.</p><p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Scoping Study Highlights</span> </p><p>Production of approximately 35,000 ounces per year at a cash cost of US $492 per ounce (US$-CAD$ exchange rate of 1.2);<br><br>Pre-tax internal rate of return of 205% at US $850 gold price (US$-CAD$ exchange rate of 1.2);<br><br>Total capital investment of CAD $11 million, of which CAD $4.8 million is for underground exploration and bulk sampling (pre-production);<br><br>10 month pre-production period;<br><br>Fully permitted plants located within 100 km of site available for custom milling. </p><p>The Scoping Study makes the case for the potential to develop a robust underground mining operation at a US $850 per ounce gold price with considerable upside potential to expand resources. </p><p>The report, which will be filed on Sedar within 45 days, is based on the 2005 measured and indicated resource estimate of 504,878 tonnes grading 10.21 grams gold per tonne for approximately 165,633 ounces at 5 g/t cut off) prepared by Carl Pelletier, P.Geol. of Innovexplo Inc. and independent Qualified Person as defined under NI 43-101 guidelines (see report filed on www.sedar.com November 8, 2005). Note that this preliminary assessment is preliminary in nature and includes mineral resources that are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no certainty that the preliminary assessment will be realized as presented since certain engineering parameters related to construction, environment and rocks mechanics will have to be validated at the preproduction phase.</p><p>The potential to delineate additional resources at Croinor over that reported in the 2005 resource estimate is excellent as the Scoping Study data is based on information down to the 200 metre level only, whereas the results of subsequent drilling campaigns conducted by First Gold in 2007 and 2008 totalling 16,481 metres have extended the mineralization from 200 metres to a depth of approximately 300 metres, intersecting economic values (see press release November 21, 2008). A new resource estimate incorporating these results is already in progress. <br></p><p>Many of today`s Abitibi producing mines have started on small-scale production plans culminating in significantly larger scope operations. In the case of Richmont`s Beaufor Mine, located in proximity to and displaying similar mineralization to Croinor, production commenced in January 1996 with reserves estimated to provide for production through 2001 at an average rate of 31,000 ounces per year. The mine continues to be in production today having produced approximately 1 million ounces. Pelletier observes in the case of Croinor `the presence of continuous high grade gold-bearing zones. Indicated and measured resources at 5.00 g/t Au cut-off are averaging a grade of over 10.00 g/t Au, which is better than deposits such as Beaufor, Ferderber, Sigma and Lamaque that were exploited in the Val-d`Or mining camp.`</p><p>The Scoping Study also recommends an underground exploration program to upgrade and expand the current resource, as well as bulk sampling and metallurgical work towards a feasibility report. In addition, work will focus on ramp development from an existing portal. </p><p>`What makes the Croinor gold project particularly attractive is the short lead time to start up and low capital required due to existing underground infrastructure which includes a ramp to the 125 ft level and a shaft to the 525 ft level. In addition, with more than 2 km of drifts on four levels (125-250-375-500 ft) put in place by previous operators, all-weather access roads, water sedimentation pond and building; the project can rapidly progress to production at reasonable costs`, added senior management of both X-ORE and First Gold, Leon Methot and Eric Leboeuf. The mining lease was obtained in 2004 and permitting is currently underway.<br></p><p style=\"font-weight: bold;\">KEY INPUT PARAMETERS</p><p>Gold price of US $850 per ounce and exchange rate of US $1 = CAD $1.15;<br><br>Gold recovery of 97.5%;<br><br>Production rate of about 400 tonnes per day over a 2.3 year underground mine life;<br><br>Cumulative production of 309,800 tonnes at 8.32 grams gold per tonne for 80,800 ounces; <br><br>Cash costs of CAD $154 per tonne (includes fixed expenses, development, stoping, transport, milling); <br><br>Total costs of CAD $191 per tonne;<br><br>Preproduction capital costs of CAD $4.8M and sustainable capital costs of CAD $6.1M including CAD $0.4 for reclamation; <br><br>No provision for Quebec Refundable Exploration Tax Credit (up to 47%), which may be generated from underground exploration expenditures;<br><br>A 15% NPI is included in the IRR and net profit before tax.</p><p>The financial analysis has been estimated based on the diluted measured and indicated resources, and production rates, development quantities and cost estimates calculated using tender offers from mining contractors. </p><p>The potential `mineable` tonnes were estimated by Golder using measured and indicated resources, 15% dilution at 0.00 g/t Au for long hole stopes (40% of stope tonnage) and 5% dilution for room and pillar stopes (60% of stope tonnage). A mining recovery factor of 80% was used for both methods. These factors will need to be confirmed by further analysis but are reasonable based on past mining experience in the camp. </p><p>The cost estimates assume contract mining and processing of the mined ore at milling facilities located roughly 100 kilometres from the mine site and are based on tender offers.

	  <title>FIRST GOLD DETECTS A NEW INTINITEM ON ITS JOINTLY OWNED MATCHI-MANITOU PROJECT.</title> 
	  <category>Nouvelles</category> 
      <description><![CDATA[<span style="font-weight: bold;" bold;="">LAVAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwire - April 22, 2009)</span> - First Gold Exploration Inc. (the Company or First Gold) (TSX VENTURE:EFG)(FRANKFURT:F12) is pleased to announced that the InfiniTEM survey carried out on its jointly owned Matchi-Manitou project has uncovered a new conductor in the northern portion of the project. Matchi-Manitou is located east of Val-d`Or, just north of First Gold Croinor gold project.<br><br>The winter program on Matchi-Manitou consisted of 37 km of magnetometric survey and 28 km of InfiniTEM survey covering the north-western portion of the property. The InfiniTEM survey detected a new conductor, along the northern boundary of the property, on lines 12 00W and 11 00W. The conductor appears open to the north-west, outside the property, where an Input anomaly had been detected in the 70`s. Following these results, the company decided to stake five claims to cover the extension of this conductor. No drilling has ever been done on this part of the property.<br><br>Matchi-Manitou hosts a volcanogenic massive sulphide prospect that has seen limited exploration located 40km to the east from the Louvicourt mine in Val-d`Or which was one of the biggest Copper/Zinc discoveries in the 1980`s. (15.65 Mt @ 3.42% Cu, 1.59% Zn, 25.78 g/t Ag and 0.92 g/t Au).<br><br>The Company intends to complete an InfiniTEM survey on the extension of the anomaly, send a team to collect grab samples and drill test the target.<br><br>Matchi-Manitou is owned by Normabec Mining Resources Ltd (TSX Venture Exchange: NMB).

	  <title>FIRST GOLD INITIATES WINTER PROGRAM ON MATCHI-MANITOU </title> 
	  <category>Nouvelles</category> 
      <description><![CDATA[<P><STRONG>LAVAL, QUEBEC MARCH 12, 2009</STRONG> - First Gold Exploration Inc. (the `Company` or `First Gold`) (TSX Venture Exchange: EFG) (Frankfurt Exchange: F12) is pleased to announce that it has started its winter exploration program on the Matchi-Manitou property located 85 km to the east of the town of Val-d`Or in the Abitibi region of Quebec.</P>
<P>The property covers a series of felsic to intermediate volcanic units which have the potential to host volcanogenic massive sulphide deposits (VMS). This potential was first discovered by Newcanex Canadian Exploration Limited in 1973-1974. While investigating isolated Input anomalies in the region, the company claimed the northern portion of the actual property and defined a strong surface electromagnetic (EM) conductor. Two short holes were then drilled and semi-massive to massive sulphides over narrow widths were intersected. Unfortunately the sulphides were barren of base metal mineralization and the project was abandoned. <BR><BR>Between 2003 and 2005, Soquem carried out a regional geochemical survey in the area and found altered volcanic rocks on the property. The alteration was interpreted to be potentially related to VMS type mineralization. The regional survey was followed by staking of the actual property, more lithogeochemistry and an InfiniTEM survey (electromagnetic) over the centre of the property. The altered rocks were further defined and a strong EM conductor was outlined in the northern portion of the grid. In 2005 Soquem transferred the property to Normabec Mining Resources which optioned the property to First Gold in 2007.<BR><BR>First Gold decided to continue its investigation of the favourable environment present on the property. The Company is currently extending the actual grid to cover the northwest portion of the property where the EM anomaly is believed to extend. Approximately 25 km of InfiniTEM and 35 km of Mag surveys will be completed in March (Abitibi Géophysique of Val-d`Or). The Company expects to follow up on the conductors with up to 4,000 metres of drilling.<BR><BR>First Gold recently announced that it has extended for 1 year its option on the Matchi-Manitou base metal project, consideration for this extension is the issuance of 50,000 shares of First Gold to Normabec Mining Resources and increasing the work commitment to 200,000$ to earn a 50% interest in the project. <BR><BR>Mr. Pierre O`Dowd, a Qualified Person under NI 43-101 has revised and approved the technical content of this release. Mr. O`Dowd is supervising the field work being executed on the project. He recently produced a NI43-101 compliant technical report on the property.<BR><BR>The Company also wishes to make the following corrections to its press releases dated June 12, July 10 and 17, 2008, regarding private placement closings:<BR><BR>Press release dated June 12, 2008: The Company paid intermediary fees of $34,350 and issued a total of 30,333 compensation options pursuant to the closing of a private placement of 366 flow-through units with Quebec residents for total proceeds of $366,000. Each compensation option entitles its holder to acquire one common shares of the Company at $0.40 for a 12-month period from the closing date. The Company also paid intermediary fees of $3,350 pursuant to the closing of a private placement of 50 units for total proceeds of $50,000. Compensation options issued under the private placement of 336 flow-though units were escrowed and subject to a hold period of four months from their date of issue. <BR><BR>Press release dated July 10, 2008: The Company paid total compensation of $56,100, not $61,100 as disclosed in the press release. The Company also paid intermediary fees of $4,600 and issued a total of 4,000 compensation options pursuant to the closing of a private placement of 87 units for total proceeds of $87,000. Each compensation option entitles its holder to acquire one common shares of the Company at $0.35 for a 12-month period from the closing date, not $0.40 as indicated in the press release. Pursuant to the closing of a private placement of 297 flow-through units for Quebec residents for total proceeds of $297,000, the Company paid intermediary fees of $28,200 and issued a total of 45,850 compensation options.

Finally, the Company paid intermediary fees of $20,000 pursuant to a private placement of 781,250 flow-through units with an institutional fund for total proceeds of $250,000. In all cases, any compensation options issued were escrowed and subject to a hold period of four months from their date of issue. <BR><BR>Press release dated July 17, 2008: The Company paid total compensation of $20,250, not $21,750 as disclosed in the press release. The Company also paid intermediary fees of $2,250 pursuant to the closing of a placement of 75 units for total proceeds of $75,000.

<P>The 2005 independent NI43-101 report on the Croinor deposit (Sedar, May 14, 2007) indicated that the bulk of the tonnage had been defined from surface down to the 150 meter level (approximately a 200,000 oz Au - resource estimate for all categories).&nbsp; Drilling by First Gold Exploration extended the mineralization down to the 300 meter level.&nbsp; More importantly, this work defined a particularly extensive and continuous vein system between levels 100 and 300 meters.&nbsp; Zone 5, which was defined as having a down dip extension of only 86 meters in the 2005 NI43-101 report, has now been traced down dip for more than 200 meters and laterally for 400 meters to become one of the most important vein system at Croinor. </P>
<P>This is a very positive development for the Corporation since the mineralization at Croinor was known to be somehow erratic and discontinuous.&nbsp; Zone 5 demonstrates clearly that mineralized shear-vein structures at Croinor can offer good continuity and grade.&nbsp; In fact, recent drilling is indicating that the Croinor mineralized system can be divided into three main `en echelon` shear zones, separated by approximately 50 meters vertically.&nbsp; The deepest shear hosts the Zone 5 vein between the 150 and 300 meters levels. In addition, during the summer of 2008, the Corporation completed 3,825 meters of drilling on the Croinor 2 project which surrounds the Croinor 1 mining lease.&nbsp; The 2008 drilling campaign on Croinor 2 only reported sub-economic results. As projected the Corporation has commissioned a scoping study from Golder Associés Ltée of Val d`Or as well as the preparation for a new NI43-101 resource calculation (Pierre O`Dowd, P. Geo).&nbsp; </P>
<P>`2008 has been a great year for <STRONG>First Gold Exploration</STRONG> as we have accomplished all our objectives and kept our engagements. We are looking forward to the economic valuation of this project by Golder Associés Ltée`, comments Eric Leboeuf, President of First Gold Exploration. All the samples were analyzed by Laboratoire Techni-Lab located in Ste-Germaine-Boulé, Quebec using atomic absorption of 30 grams pulp samples and fire assay with gravity finish.&nbsp; First Gold has implemented a QAQC program which includes the use of standards, blanks and duplicate samples.&nbsp; Mr. Pierre O`Dowd, a Qualified Person under NI 43-101 has revised and approved the technical content of this release.&nbsp; Mr. O`Dowd also supervises the field work be executed on these projects. Furthermore, First Gold wishes to announce that it has extended for 1 year its option on the Matchi-Manitou base metals project.&nbsp; Consideration for this extension consists in the issuance of 50,000 shares of First Gold to Normabec Mining Resources Ltd and increasing the work commitment to $200,000 to earn a 50% interest in the project.&nbsp; In September 2008, the Board of Directors decided not to proceed with the option on the Cottonwood Property located in Nevada and not to exercise its option on the Watish project in Quebec.</P>

<P>1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; See if any additional drilling is required after the current campaign that recently got under way is completed before going underground on the project;</P>
<P>2)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Determine which portion of the mineral resource has the potential to be extracted taking into account the Zone 5 - deepest known zone to date - that is not currently included in the resource as it is still being tested with seven holes in it, in the next few months;</P>
<P>3)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Find out which mining methods may be applicable and evaluate what rate of production may be feasible;</P>
<P>4)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Provide an initial analysis of capital costs of a ramp system, main galleries, raises, etc. and a preliminary evaluation of operating costs.</P>
<P>This report will not be a final report and will therefore not be compliant to NI 43-101 standards and should be finalized within twelve weeks of the completion of the current drill program.&nbsp; Mr. François Chabot who has much experience as a mine geologist will supervise the project for Golder Associates.</P>

	  <title>FIRST GOLD TO BEGIN 5,000 METER DIAMOND DRILL PROGRAM AT CROINOR</title> 
	  <category>Nouvelles</category> 
      <description><![CDATA[<P><STRONG>Montréal (Québec), April 24th, 2008</STRONG> - First Gold Exploration Inc. (TSX Venture Exchange: EFG) (`First Gold`) is pleased to announce that it has signed an agreement in view to complete a program for a minimum of 5,000 meters of diamond drilling on the Croinor project under option from X-Ore Resources Inc. (TSX Venture: XOR). The program will begin on May 5th, 2008 and will initially consist of: </P>
<P>&nbsp;<BR>1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 3,325 meters of drilling on the Croinor mining lease (Croinor 1 joint-venture) for a total of 15 holes with 12 of these holes being drilled vertically. The objectives of this program are as follows: </P>
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &#9679;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; three holes will be drilled to the East of the mineralized zones to test potential lateral&nbsp;&nbsp; extensions; </P>
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &#9679;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; two holes will be drilled under the central East pit to test&nbsp; zone 5; </P>
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &#9679;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; three holes will be located between the pits for in-fill drilling and again to test zone 5; </P>
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &#9679;&nbsp; seven holes will be drilled to the West of the West Pit to in-fill drill the known resource in view to upgrade it, to test zone 5 and attempt to extend&nbsp; mineralization laterally in that direction.&nbsp; </P>
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &#9679;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; All of these holes are drilled within the diorite dyke known as the Croinor sill; and</P>
<P>&nbsp;<BR>Following the 2007 drill campaign zone 5 extends for about 600 meters, - the longest mineralized zone discovered to date on the project.&nbsp; Zone 5 lies at a depth varying between 200 and 260 meters from surface.&nbsp; Most of this zone is not included in the NI43-101 resource calculation since more drilling was required.</P>
<P>&nbsp;<BR>2)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Also, 1,800 meters of drilling will be undertaken on the mining claims surrounding the Croinor mining lease (Croinor 2 joint-venture) for a total of 9 holes, each 200 meters in length and drilled at an angle of 55 degrees. This will allow testing of four different sectors: </P>
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &#9679;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; two targets located along strike of the Croinor sill; and</P>
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &#9679;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; two located to the South of the Croinor sill in diorite dykes that are&nbsp; similar to the Croinor sill; </P>
<P>The four sectors received only limited drilling by predecessor companies and all have gold intercepts in drill holes. There are numerous geological and geophysical targets that have yet to be tested on the property. </P>
<P>The program is not limited to 5,125 meters of drilling that has been planned and is subject to modifications as it progresses. More definition drilling will be completed but this portion of the program is still under review. <BR>Mr. Pierre O`Dowd, a Qualified Person under NI 43-101 has revised and approved the technical content of this release.&nbsp; Mr. O`Dowd will supervise the field work that will be executed on the project.</P>

	  <title>FIRST GOLD TO START A FOLLOW-UP DIAMOND DRILL PROGRAM AT CROINOR 
</title> 
	  <category>Nouvelles</category> 
      <description><![CDATA[<P><STRONG>Montréal (Québec), March 27th, 2008</STRONG> - First Gold Exploration Inc. (TSX Venture Exchange: EFG) (`First Gold`) is pleased to announce that It will start another diamond drill program on the Croinor mining lease under option from X-Ore Resources Inc. (TSX Venture Exchange: XOR).&nbsp; The Croinor deposit located 75 km by road from Val-d`Or is known to contain an estimated 1,429,075 metric tons of 6.31 G/TM or 289,000 ounces of gold for combined measured and indicated mineral resources at a cut-off grade of 2.00 G/TM in the first 200 meters from surface (NI 43-101 report dated November 2005 - posted on <A href=\"http://www.sedar.com\">www.sedar.com</A> in 2007 under First Gold`s Sedar profile).</P>
<P>In 2007, First Gold completed an additional 8,409 meters of diamond drilling on the project which was successful in extending and better defining the known gold resource.&nbsp; Previously reported infill holes CR-07-332A (15.25 grams Au over 4 meters) and CR-07-334 (5.19 grams Au over 10.9 meters) indicate that the quality of the resource has been improved and that the deeper holes CR-07-332A (27.03 grams Au over 2 meters) and CR-07-334 (4.05 grams Au over 6 meters) indicate that a mineralized zone not included in the measured mineral resource does exist below 200 meters from surface.&nbsp; This new zone has now been identified over a length of 400 meters.&nbsp; This mineralization as seen above presents a number of high gold grades.</P>
<P>&nbsp;<BR>First Gold`s next drill program will begin in May and will entail a minimum of 5,000 meters which will lead to the preparation of a new NI 43-101 compliant resource. It will consist of:</P>
<P>more fill-in drilling in the area where the known resource is located;</P>
<P>7 deeper holes for a total of 2,650 meters to test the continuity of the zone identified below 200 meters; and</P>
<P>additional drilling laterally to test for more mineralization going both in the East and West directions.</P>
<P>&nbsp;<BR>While this program is in progress, First Gold and its partner will also commission the preparation of scoping study to determine the optimal location to drive a ramp underground on the project.&nbsp; At this point, it looks like the best scenario would be to drive the ramp from the bottom of the West Pit, which is roughly 50 meters deep, which would allow immediate access into the mineralized zone thus significantly reducing the cost of the ramp.</P>
<P>Since bulk samples were already taken in 2003 and 2004 from which 8,081 ounces of gold were extracted, no additional metallurgical work will be required (NI 43-101 on pages 34 - 37).&nbsp; The mineralization is simple and recoveries exceeded 97%. </P>
<P>The President, Mr. Eric Leboeuf says: `We are happy that we have identified a new mineralized structure last year and now hope that this will add to the known resource and will add to the overall picture.&nbsp; With gold prices at current levels, we are going to push to go explore underground and find out if it is possible to fast track production.&nbsp; With a mining lease in place and the fact that we would certainly truck to an existing mill in the area any mineable gold resource, permitting should be rather quick.&nbsp; Creating value for our shareholders is our main objective and we would like to thank them for their support`.</P>
<P>Mr. Pierre O`Dowd, a Qualified Person under NI 43-101 has revised and approved the technical content of this release.&nbsp; Mr. O`Dowd will supervise the field worked that will be executed on these projects.</P>

	  <title>FIRST GOLD TO UNDERTAKE A NEW RESOURCE ESTIMATE ON CROINOR </title> 
	  <category>Nouvelles</category> 
      <description><![CDATA[<P><EM>`Additional Gold Intersections on the Croinor Project`</EM></P>
<P><STRONG>Montreal (Quebec), January, 21st, 2008</STRONG> - First Gold Exploration Inc. (TSX Venture Exchange: EFG) `First Gold` is pleased to announce the last results from its 2007 diamond drilling program on the Croinor property located 75 km to the east of Val-d`Or in the Abitibi region of Quebec (joint-venture with X-Ore Resources Inc.).</P>
<P>Results from drill holes CR07-331, 332a, 333, 334, 335, 336 and 340a (partial) were released previously. EFG is now releasing the results of the missing portion of hole 340A and of 10 more holes on the Croinor Mining Lease. See the attached map for surface location of the holes. Cross-sections will be available and posted on the website as they become available.</P>
<P><BR>&nbsp;</P>
<P><IMG border=0 src="http://www.communicationconceptweb.com/firstgold/http://www.firstgoldexploration.com/images/TableauSondage.jpg"></P>
<P>Of the holes reported, No. CR07-338 and CR07-345 returned no significant value. A total of 8,409 meters of drilling were completed in the year 2007 on the Croinor Mining Lease versus an initially planned campaign of 5,000 meters.</P>
<P>In a separate joint-venture (also with X-Ore Resources) on the mining claims surrounding the Croinor Mining Lease, a total of eight holes for 1,621 meters (vs a budget of 1,500 meters) were drilled: </P>
<P>1) seven of these holes were drilled on the Lac Bug showing located 1 km to the east of the Croinor Mining Lease mainly to test the down plunge of the mineralization below the 100 meter level; and </P>
<P>2) Another hole was drilled to test if other targets could be delineated along the Lac Bug structural corridor.</P>
<P>One hole, LB07-05 reported: 6 meters of 6.19 g/t Au (between 91 and 97 meters). First Gold does not feel that the overall results warrant any follow-up work on this mineralized horizon.</P>
<P>The Croinor project has provided very encouraging results. Fill-in drilling has confirmed that the known mineralized zones located within 200 meters from surface can be extended and has lead to the discovery of new mineralized zones below 200 meters from surface (holes CR07-331, 332A, 340A and 334).</P>
<P>The Company and its partner X-Ore Resources are currently evaluating all the alternatives but the joint-venture partners have concluded that a new resource calculation is warranted. It remains to be determined whether or not a few more drill holes will be completed prior to this exercise. Nevertheless: </P>
<P>1) a new NI 43-101 report with a new resource estimate will definitely be prepared in the year 2008;</P>
<P>2) more drilling will be completed on the Mining Lease - both in fill drilling with holes down to 300 meters and more drilling along strike both East of hole CR07-335 and West of hole CR07-347; </P>
<P>3) more drilling will also be completed on some targets of the claims surrounding the Mining Lease; and</P>
<P>4) a scoping study is also contemplated to assess the potential of underground access via a ramp on the Mining Lease.</P>
<P><BR>All the samples were analyzed using by fire assays at Laboratoire Expert Inc. located in Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec. First Gold has implemented a QAQC program which includes the use of standard and duplicates samples.<BR>Mr. Pierre O`Dowd, a Qualified Person under NI 43-101 has revised and approved the technical content of this release. Mr. O`Dowd will supervise the field worked that will be executed on the project.</P>

	  <title>FIRST GOLD UPDATE ON ITS EXPLORATION PROGRAM</title> 
	  <category>Nouvelles</category> 
      <description><![CDATA[<P><STRONG>Montreal (Quebec), December 20th, 2007</STRONG> - First Gold Exploration Inc. (TSX Venture Exchange: EFG) (`First Gold`) is pleased to announce that it has now completed its 2007 drill programs on the Croinor project and the Lac Bug project, both joint-ventures with X-Ore Resources Inc. (TSX Venture Exchange: XOR).&nbsp; Some assays are still pending and results will be released when available, which should be in the next few weeks.&nbsp; Sufficient work was completed on both projects to meet the 2007 work requirements for JV`s purposes.&nbsp; In all likelihood, First Gold will carry a phase II to its programs in 2008.</P>
<P>&nbsp;Looking at other projects under option from Normabec Mining Resources Ltd (TSX Venture Exchange: NMB) in the Abitibi region, First Gold has now completed surface sampling and target delineation for a proposed drill program on the Matchi-Manitou copper-zinc-silver project.&nbsp; It is expected that the targets will be drilled in 2008.&nbsp; No work has been completed on the Wathish nickel project but exploration will begin in 2008 as originally planned.&nbsp; The company has also decided to drop its option on the Noyell project.</P>
<P>&nbsp;In Nevada, the due diligence is progressing on the proposed option agreement with Bonaventure Enterprises (TSX Venture Exchange: BVT) on the Cottonwood gold project and it is expected that a final agreement will be signed in January 2008 and field work should then begin immediately including some diamond drilling.</P>
<P>&nbsp;First Gold has completed 12,922 meters of diamond drilling in its first year of existence being consistent with its strategy to explore projects that are at the drill stage of their development.&nbsp; The objective for 2008 is to drill on at least three separate projects.</P>

	  <title>FIRST GOLD OPTIONS COTTONWOOD PROJECT IN NEVADA </title> 
	  <category>Nouvelles</category> 
      <description><![CDATA[<STRONG>Montreal (Quebec), November 8th, 2007</STRONG> - First Gold Exploration Inc. (TSX Venture Exchange: EFG) ("First Gold") is pleased to announce that it has concluded a joint-venture agreement with Bonaventure Enterprises Inc. (TSX Venture Exchange: BVT) ("Bonaventure") with the objective to acquire a 60% undivided interest in the Cottonwood Property located in the Reese River Mining District, Lander County, Nevada State.
<P></P>
<P></P>
<P>The property is located in Central Nevada, 200 km east of Reno and is composed of 2 blocks of contiguous unpatented mining claims located on Federal public land:</P>
<P></P>

<P>* In addition to the 2,000,000 common shares of First Gold, 2,000,000 common share purchase warrants will be issued, each warrant entitling Bonaventure to purchase one common share of First Gold at a price of $0.30 per share for a period of two years.</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>First Gold can acquire an additional 10% undivided in the Property (bringing its total undivided interest to 60%) by producing a bankable feasibility study.</P>
<P>&nbsp;First Gold intends to complete a $900,000 private placement in order to close the transaction.&nbsp; The placement will be composed of $0.20 Units with each Unit consisting of one common share and one common share purchase warrant entitling the holder to purchase one common share of the Corporation at a price yet to be determined for a period of two years.</P>
<P>&nbsp;Bonaventure optioned the Cottonwood property from MinQuest Inc. in the fall of 2003.&nbsp; Since that time, geologic mapping, sampling, a gravity survey, trenching and shallow drilling have been completed on the property.&nbsp; Mapping and sampling have confirmed high grade gold in massive arsenopyrite veins distributed intermittently throughout the western half of the southern intrusive body.&nbsp; This “Cotton” target is on the south wall of a steep canyon. Because of minimal outcrop Bonaventure constructed two widely spaced dozer trenches and sampled and mapped any exposed outcrops.&nbsp; A broad zone of north to northeast trending shears have been mapped within quartz diorite intrusive and surrounding argillites of the Ordovician Valmy formation. The shears within the intrusive often contain quartz/sulfide veins with the primary sulfide being arsenopyrite. Sampling of these veins, which average no more than 0.15 m in width have grades of up to 57.1 g/t gold, 2.9 g/t silver, and 24 percent arsenic.</P>
<P>Using Trench 1 for access, two fences of two holes each were drilled approximately 90 m apart. These angle holes were drilled perpendicular to the shear direction. A fifth hole was drilled 275 m east to test beneath an historic adit. </P>
<P>&nbsp;The geochemical drilling found broad zones of anomalous gold (+0.1 g/t) in both fences of holes within which are 1.5-7.5 m wide quartz/sulfide zones averaging 0.1 to 1.0 g/t gold. Drilling shows that the shear zone is at least&nbsp; 150 m wide. Also, fence 2 (CR-03-04) has stronger gold values than fence 1 (CR-01-02). Fence 2 is approximately 33 m lower than fence 1 and may indicate values are improving with depth. Arsenic averages over 1,000 ppm in all 4 fence holes. High arsenic is characteristic of most Nevada gold systems but arsenic of this magnitude is found only at a few including the Getchell mine. </P>
<P>&nbsp;The Cotton target has several characteristics of the Getchell gold system.&nbsp; Getchell is located approximately 100 miles (160 km) north of Cottonwood. Early mining at Getchell was of gold in arsenic-rich quartz veins in intrusive rocks near the surface. Later, small near-surface gold deposits were mined in limy units within Ordovician rocks similar to those exposed at Cottonwood. Eventually, deep drilling at Getchell discovered the Turquoise Ridge deposit hosted by a thick carbonate section. Placer Dome (now Barrick) announced a 2005 reserve of 3,150,000 ounces of gold. The Getchell fault and other related structures served as the feeder fault for Turquoise Ridge. </P>
<P>&nbsp;Bonaventure has identified a major gold-bearing shear zone at Cottonwood. A program of deep drilling is planned&nbsp; to test the intersection of this shear zone with carbonate host rocks. Carbonate rocks are exposed in the Callaghan Window less than 16 km north of Cottonwood. </P>
<P>&nbsp;First Gold is a recently formed company with about 14.2 million shares outstanding.&nbsp; Its mineral properties portfolio consisted until now of four options to acquire at least a 50% interest in four different projects located in the Abitibi region in Quebec.&nbsp; Diamond drilling is currently underway on the Croinor project (joint-venture with X-Ore Resources) for which a 43-101 report prepared in November 2005 (see report filed on Sedar) confirmed a resource estimate of 1,429,075 tonnes of 6.31 gr/tonne or 289,890 ounces of gold in different categories (see press release dated May 1st, 2007) within 200 meters from surface.&nbsp; The objective is to increase the resource both laterally and at depth.</P>
<P>&nbsp;Bonaventure is an exploration company with gold assets in Nevada and large land positions in Quebec and in the Athabasca Basin where it is exploring for uranium.</P>
<P>Mr. Richard Kern (P.Geo), a Qualified Person under NI 43-101 has revised and approved the technical content of this release.&nbsp; Mr. Kern will supervise the field worked that will be executed on the Cottonwood project and currently owns 50% of MinQuest Inc.</P>

	  <title>FIRST GOLD INTERSECTS 15.25 G/T AU OVER 4 METERS AND 27.03 G/T AU OVER 2 METERS IN HOLE 332A ON CROINOR PROJECT </title> 
	  <category>Nouvelles</category> 
      <description><![CDATA[<P><STRONG>Montreal (Quebec), September 5th, 2007</STRONG> - First Gold Exploration Inc. (TSX Venture Exchange: EFG) (`First Gold`) is pleased to announce more results from its diamond drill program on the Croinor mining lease located 75 km from Val d`Or in Quebec. Please see previously issued press release or web page for details of the joint-venture agreements with X-Ore Resources Inc.</P>
<P>&nbsp;In total, 5,684 meters were drilled between the months of June to August.&nbsp; First Gold has now received assays for eight of the twelve holes of the program.&nbsp; Two of those holes were abandoned before they were completed due to technical difficulties.</P>
<P>&nbsp;Holes 331 and 332A are located 200 meters to the west of hole no. 334 (previous press release, 10.9 meters of 5.19 g/t).&nbsp; Results listed in the table below appear to demonstrate that the gold mineralization is improving towards the west as two significant stockwork zones were identified on the most westerly section drilled to date by First Gold (15.25 g/t Au over 4 meters from 158 to 162 m and 27.03 g/t Au over 2 meter from 258 to 260 m) (see drill hole locations on First Gold`s website - more detailed maps will be available in a few weeks).&nbsp; </P>
<P>&nbsp;Despite the fact that many assay results are pending, the company intends to drill a minimum of four additional holes this year on the mining lease.&nbsp; This additional drilling will test a 200 m portion of the mineralized structure directly to the west of hole no. 332A.&nbsp; This program on the mining lease should start before the end of September once the 1,500 meter drill program on the adjacent Lac Bug showing (other joint-venture with X-Ore Resources Inc.) is completed.</P>
<P>&nbsp;The objective of the company is to increase the + 200,000 oz gold resource defined down to the 200 meter level (see 43-101 Report on Sedar). </P>

	  <title>FIRST GOLD INTERSECTS 5.19 G/T Au OVER 10.9 METERS AT THE CROINOR PROJECT 
</title>

      <description><![CDATA[<P><STRONG>Montreal (Quebec), August 28th, 2007</STRONG> - First Gold Exploration Inc. (TSX Venture Exchange: EFG)&nbsp; (`First Gold`) is pleased to announce&nbsp; the first results from its drill program on the Croinor project in the Abitibi region of Quebec.<BR>&nbsp;</P>
<P>As explained in the press release dated May 1st, 2007 First Gold has optioned the property under two separate joint-venture agreements with X-Ore Resources Inc. (formerly South Malartic) in order to earn a 50% interest in: i) the mining lease on which a 5,000 meter drill program started in late June; and ii)&nbsp; the surrounding mining claims on which a 1,500 meter drill program will begin during September.</P>
<P>&nbsp;This first phase of diamond drilling on the mining lease consists of 10, 500-meter holes with two holes drilled along each of five sections positioned 100 meters apart.&nbsp; Six of the 10 holes are now completed and assays have been received on five of these holes.</P>
<P>&nbsp;The westernmost section (hole 334) has provided the best results to date - hole 334 yielded three significant mineralized intervals (see drill hole locations on First Gold`s website).&nbsp; </P>

<P><STRONG>Our interpretation of the results from holes CR-07-334 indicates that:</STRONG></P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>i) The 10.9 meter intercept is the likely extension of Zone 4.&nbsp; This would suggest that the potential for adding to the +200,000 oz gold resource present within 200 meters from surface (as reported in a press release dated May 1st 2007) is very promising. </P>
<P>&nbsp;ii) The deeper mineralized intervals indicate that there is also potential below the 200 meter level.&nbsp; The presence of fuschite in some of the holes is particularly encouraging since this mineral is typically found in gold deposits associated with deep-seated structures.</P>
<P>&nbsp;Preliminary indications are that the true widths of the mineralized intervals are roughly equivalent to 50% of core lengths.</P>
<P>&nbsp;Additional drill results should be available in the next few weeks.&nbsp; The Company also intends to add to this 10 hole program once all results have been interpreted.&nbsp;&nbsp; Four additional holes are planned as a result of recent funding.</P>
<P>&nbsp;All the samples were analyzed using by fire assays at Laboratoire Expert Inc. located in Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec.</P>

	  <title>FIRST GOLD EXPLORATION STARTS A 6,500 METERS DIAMOND DRILL PROGRAM AT XORE`S CROINOR </title> 
	  <category>Nouvelles</category> 
      <description><![CDATA[<p><strong>Montreal (Quebec), June 18th, 2007</strong> - First Gold Exploration Inc. (TSX Venture Exchange: EFG) (`First Gold`) is pleased to announce that it has now obtained all permits and has started its drill program on the Croinor project recently optioned from XOre Resources (TSX Venture Exchange: XOR). For details of the jointventure agreement see press release dated May 1 st , 2007.<br></p><p>The Croinor project located 75 km by road from Val d`Or, in the Abitibi region of Quebec hosts the Croinor deposit which contains an estimated 1,429,075 metric tons of 6.31 G/TM or 289,890 ounces of gold for combined measured and indicated resources at a cutoff grade of 2.00 G/TM in the first 200 meters from surface (NI 43101 compliant). The Croinor deposit is hosted in diorite, known as the Croinor Sill. Gold mineralization is contained within lenses made up of quartzcarbonatetourmalinepyrite within an altered host rock. Mineralized lenses have dips ranging from nearly vertical to flat lying.<br></p><p>They show good lateral continuity, having been following over a distance of up to 600 meters. To date,<br>over 40 goldbearing lenses have been outlined within the Croinor Sill.<br></p><p>The planned program on the Croinor Sill consists of 10 holes that will be drilled to an average depth of 450500 meters for a total of 5,000 meters enclosed in an area of roughly 500 meters square (see map attached).<br>This program will be immediately followed by a further 1,500 meter diamond drill program consisting of shallow holes in an area named Lac Bug located a few hundred meters from the Croinor Sill where gold mineralization was identified by trenching and drilling in previous campaigns. This drill program will evaluate the potential of the area where the Croinor Sill and the Lac Bug mineralization are interpreted to coalesce - these contacts are typically very favorable environments for gold mineralization.<br>Mr. Pierre O`Dowd, a Qualified Person under NI 43101 has revised and approved the technical content of this release. Mr. O`Dowd will supervise the field worked that will be executed on these projects.<br>Additional information:<br></p><p>Pierre Forget<br>President and chief executive officer<br>Phone: (514) 2346488<br>Email: <a href="%5C%22mailto:info@firstgoldexploration.com%5C%22">info@firstgoldexploration.com</a><br><a href="%5C%22http://www.firstgoldexploration.com%5C%22">www.firstgoldexploration.com</a></p><p><br><em>The TSX Venture Exchange does not accept responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.</em></p>]]></description>

<P>First Gold will then have the option to acquire an additional 20% undivided interest in the Croinor 2 project by issuing another 200,000 common shares and by completing exploration work for an amount of $500,000 before December 31 st , 2009. First Gold will then have acquired an interest of 50% in Croinor 2 after having issued a total of 450,000 common shares and completing exploration work for an amount of $1,000,000 before the end of December 2009 and subject to the approval of regulatory bodies.<BR>For both of these jointventures, the parties will form once First Gold has earned a 50% interest a full jointventure and will conclude a formal agreement with the standard clauses to that effect. It is important to note that with the previous financings completed in December 2006 ($980,000 available for CEE) and April 2007 ($275,000 available for CEE), First Gold anticipates to have sufficient funds to meet its<BR>commitments for the year 2007 on the Noyell project ($400,000) and Croinor ($650,000 plus $200,000).</P>
<P>The Croinor project meets all of the First Gold criteria as to the selection of its projects:</P>
<P>1) accessibility&#894;<BR>2) drill stage&#894; and<BR>3) geological potential</P>
<P>The five jointventure agreements signed by First Gold since its inception in the Fall of 2006 all meet these same criteria and are located in the same sector, the Abitibi region in Quebec.The closing of the above transactions is subject to the approval of the TSX Venture exchange (the `Exchange`). Moreover, before the last tranche is issued in early 2009 in order to earn the 50% interest in Croinor 1(ie 4,300,000 shares) First Gold has to obtain approval from the Exchange and from its shareholders. Mr. Pierre O`Dowd, a Qualified Person under NI 43101 has revised and approved the technical content of this release. Mr. O`Dowd will supervise the field worked that will be executed on these projects.</P>

This hole, which ended at 365 meters, is one of the deepest drilled on this property to date.<BR>This mineralized zone, which had mostly been drilled closer to surface by previous owners, lies within an iron formation along the DouayCameron Shear. This shear is known to host several gold occurrences and deposits.</P>
<P>Noteworthy is the presence of pyrrhotite, pyrite and arsenopyrite, a typical mineral assemblage for this particular geological environment.</P>
<P>As this hole lies close to the eastern boundary of the property, the joint venture partners have staked an additional 21 claims contiguous to the east thus adding another 1.7 kilometers along the DouayCameron Shear (for details on the jointventure, see news release dated February 21st, 2007).</P>
