Oro Gold Drills 6.3 g/t Gold Over 30 Metres and Extends New High-Grade Zone at Trinidad Project, Mexico
VANCOUVER, BRITISHCOLUMBIA--(Marketwire - June 11, 2009) - Oro Gold Resources Ltd. ("OroGold" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:OGR) has announced gold assayresults received for three more diamond drill holes that expand the newgold zone towards the south at the Taunus target on its Trinidadproperty near Mazatlan, Mexico.

09TR019 returned 6.3 g/t gold over 30 metres, including 17.6 g/tgold over 4.5 metres. This is the first diamond drill hole that hasbeen drilled from the west side of the abandoned pit, and intersectedthe new breccia gold zone approximately 20 metres south of recentlyreported high-grade gold results in 09TR015 and 09TR016. The hole waslost prior to reaching its planned depth with the last 3 metresaveraging 2.3 g/t gold, indicating additional potential at depth.

09TR020 returned 5.3 g/t gold over 13.4 metres and 4.1 g/t goldover 12.9 metres in two distinct zones. This confirms that the goldmineralization continues to the south by more than 200 metres from theinitial high-grade zone discovered by Oro Gold in holes 08TR012,09TR015 and 09TR016. These zones are interpreted to be near verticalwith a true width of 12 and 11 metres respectively.

"This continued drilling success demonstrates that we are onto avery significant gold discovery at Trinidad," commented Oro Gold's VicePresident, Frank Powell. "Hole 09TR020 continues to grow the high-gradegold zone into a new area suggesting significant depth potential and isopen in multiple directions. We are now planning to extend our drillingprogram into the summer in order to continue moving forward with thegoal to add more high-grade gold ounces to our resource base."

09TR018 returned narrow intervals in the 1 to 3 g/t gold range,interpreted to be located near a fault which has offset mineralization
