  LAKEWOOD, CO, Aug 27 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
Colorado Goldfields Inc. (OTCBB: CGFIA) is pleased to present additional
historical data on the Eddy Gulch properties, which are currently under a
Letter of Intent for purchase by Colorado Goldfields.

    An estimate of the total potential resource from historical data is 1.23
million ounces of gold, representing $1.15 billion at $935 per ounce. That
estimate is derived by attributing 1) half of the 2 million ounces from
placer production to erosion from Eddy Gulch, 2) adding the reported
placer production of 150,000 ounces, and 3) reported lode production of
81,352 ounces from mines at Eddy Gulch.

    The following table shows historical lode production from the properties
valued at today's gold price of approximately $935 per ounce. Historic
lode production would be valued today at over $76 million. The production
data shown below is from California State Mineralogist's reports and
numerous private geologic reports.

In the 1850s, placer mines in Eddy Gulch produced 150,000 ounces of
gold. The source of the placer gold was the series of lode deposits that
strike across the head of Eddy Gulch, the principal one being the
structure now covered by the Eddy Gulch Group of claims. The Mountain
Laurel Mine and the Klamath Mine, the greatest producers in Eddy Gulch,
were discovered in 1862, and the Union Mine about the same time. The Anna
Johnson Mine was discovered in 1895.

    The 1925 California State Mineralogist's report states that the placer
mines in the North Fork of the Salmon River from Sawyers Bar (Eddy Gulch)
to Forks of Salmon, produced about 2 million ounces of gold.

    In an all stock transaction, Colorado Goldfields will acquire the Eddy
Gulch Properties in exchange for shares of Class A Common Stock. The
acquisition is of course subject to mutual due diligence by both Colorado
Goldfields and Eddy Gulch. The due diligence period extends to September
30, 2009.

    All roll-up acquisitions by the Company will be all stock transactions.
The shares issued in these transactions will be restricted, and
furthermore locked up beyond the 6 months required by Rule 144. C.
Stephen Guyer, CFO for Colorado Goldfields, reaffirms his lock-up of
20,000,000 shares as previously reported on August 7, 2009 and corrects
the calculation then reported as "Proceeds from the sale of stock owned
by Mr. Guyer in 2009 total $26,400." The corrected calculation is "Net
proceeds from the sale of stock owned by Mr. Guyer for calendar 2009
total $34,849."
