TORONTO, Nov. 3 /CNW/ - Atlanta Gold Inc. (NEX: ATG.H) announces that it intends to complete surface trenching and near-surface infill drilling programs in 2010 at its Atlanta gold property which is currently under development in Idaho U.S.A.

As previously announced, the March 2009 NI 43-101 Technical Report and Resource Estimate estimated the total Measured and Indicated resource for Atlanta to be 3.0 million tons above cut-off grades of 0.05 ounces per ton (opt) gold for the mini-pit resource and 0.10 opt gold for the underground resource with an average grade of 0.154 opt gold and 0.357 opt silver, that contain 460,338 ounces of gold and 924,700 ounces of silver, respectively, or approximately 472,900 equivalent ounces of gold (including silver resources as a gold equivalent).

The objective of the 2009-2010 exploration programs is to increase the gold mineral resource inventory at Atlanta by approximately 127,100 ounces from 472,900 to 600,000 equivalent ounces of gold by December 31, 2010 by:

a. increasing the size of the near-surface, shallow open-pit resource

which can be mined at a relatively low cost;

b. increasing the size of the sparsely-drilled higher-grade

(0.35+ ounce-per-ton) (12.0+ gram per ton) zones found between the

Monarch and Idaho areas in the west and the East Extension area in

the east at the 900-1,200 foot horizon; and

c. increasing the confidence in the continuity between these

higher-grade zones.

The 2009-2010 exploration programs will include the following:

- 10,000 feet (3,048 metres) of shallow infill core drilling to a depth

of 400 feet (122 metres) on the East Extension, West Monarch and

Idaho zones;

- 15,000 of 33,000 feet (4,572 of 10,058 metres) of core drilling to an

intermediate depth of 1,500-1,800 feet (457-549 metres) on the East

Extension and Monarch zones.
