Sage Gold Inc. (CNQ listed: symbol SAGE) is pleased to announce that it has completed an additional tranche of financing through the issuance of 2,203,000 units (“Units”) at $0.075 per unit for gross proceeds of $165,225. To date, a total of 9,995,506 Units at a price of $0.075 per Unit have been issued for gross proceeds of $749,663. Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company and one half of one common share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase an additional common share at a price of $0.10 per common share at any time until September 22, 2007.

The Company remains active in exploration in Ontario. A 2,000 metre diamond drill program is proceeding well in the Jam Lake zone of the Kerrs Property, near Lake Abitibi. This zone was discovered through historic drilling by Noranda which yielded encouraging gold values (2.5 grams Au/tonne over 10.2 metres and 11.69 grams Au/tonne over 0.76 metres) hosted in brecciated volcanic rocks with pyrite, quartz, carbonate, and green carbonate alteration. The current drilling program is expected to be completed in October. Sage recently increased its total claim area by 11,040 acres for a total of 13,259 acres.

In addition, the Company is conducting an extensive soil sampling program on the Dike Property, Nevada, consisting of 2,700 samples on a 30 X 30 metre grid pattern. The program is expected to be completed in October.

Sage’s main focus is to build a mining corporation through exploration and advanced development and production targets, primarily in gold and silver.

There are 35,771,849 issued and outstanding common shares.
