VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA is pleased to announce that a second core rig has commenced drilling on the large La Bufa gold-silver property (2,291 hectares) in the Guadalupe y Calvo mining district in southwestern Chihuahua State. The exploration program is focusing on the southern extension of the Rosario gold-silver vein system which extends onto the La Bufa property for at least 1600 meters. Drilling with the first rig has encountered targeted quartz vein(s) and stockwork with attending galena and chalcopyrite; assays are pending. A third core drill rig is expected to arrive on the property shortly. The Company plans to drill at least 15 angle (-45 degrees to -60 degrees) core holes in two-hole "fences" across the vein system for a total of 6000 meters. All holes are targeted to reach the 2250 meter level or deeper which was historically productive in the adjacent Rosario mine.

Lincoln Gold may earn up to a 60% interest in the La Bufa property from Almaden Minerals Ltd. by spending US$3.5 million over a 4 year period and issuing 1,550,000 shares.

The drilling program is being carried out as part of the Phase 1 exploration program recommended on the La Bufa property in the technical report on the La Bufa property prepared by Mr. Richard W. Bybee, P. Geo, and dated October 19, 2007. Mr. Jeffrey Wilson, the Company's vice-president and chief operating officer and a qualified person under National Instrument 43-101, supervised the preparation of this news release.

Lincoln Gold Corp. is a gold exploration company with several projects in various stages of exploration including three properties in Nevada and the La Bufa property in Mexico.
