ATLANTA GOLD ~~INC.~~CHANGES ~~EVALUATES~~STRATEGIC ~~PARALLEL~~FOCUS ~~HEAP LEACH AND MILLING~~ FOR ~~PROCESSING OF GOLD ORE AT ITS ATLANTA PROPERTY IN IDAHO~~

~~Toronto,~~DEVELOPMENT ~~Ontario~~OF –ATLANTA ~~Atlanta~~GOLD Gold Inc. (TSX: ATG) announces that management together with independent engineering consulting firms engaged by the Company are undertaking engineering and economic evaluations of parallel heap leaching and milling circuits to improve gold recoveries at its Atlanta project (“Atlanta”) located in Elmore County, Idaho. Management believes that the opportunity exists to significantly improve upon the 64% average heap leach recovery rate predicted in the 2005 Feasibility Study, which proposed only heap leaching for Atlanta open-pit ores.PROJECT

Milling operations now under consideration consist of grinding, gravity recovery of coarse gold, flotation recovery of gold associated with ~~sulfides,~~an ~~and~~on-site ~~cyanide leaching of the flotation tailings. Engineering designs and cost estimates of these~~ milling ~~operations are currently being developed~~facility.

~~Data~~As ~~from~~previously ~~metallurgical~~announced ~~studies~~on ~~undertaken~~January ~~between 1987 and 1998 provide support for a potential recovery rate as high as 90% by selective mining and milling of high-grade ore from Atlanta.

Although the percentage of total open pit reserves which would justify selective mining and milling is relatively small, the selectively mined ore would be high-grade and would therefore have a significant impact on operating results. Management believes that the studies now underway will lead to an overall recovery improvement, from the 64% predicted in the 2005 Feasibility Study, to approximately 75% if parallel heap leach and milling is economically justified.·

800 ton-per-day mining and gravity-flotation milling operation; construction of pilot plant with no cyanide circuit to commence in 2008

Reduction of environmental footprint by 95%

Elimination of major permitting hurdles which will reduce permitting timelines

Increase in expected metal recovery rates from 63% to 90%

Mining rate: 270,000 tons of ore producing 43,000 equivalent (Au + Ag) ounces of gold per year

Cash flow will fund underground exploration and development and expansion of existing resource

Initial underground access will utilize existing mine workings from the 1994 exploration program which will reduce underground costs and timelines by 60%

When warranted, construct an underground exploration decline which would also provide an access for mining below existing mine workings

Identify treatment smelters for the concentrate and close contracts with them

Continued remediation of existing surface disturbance created by historic mining activities

Raise community awareness of the benefits of the new strategy and carry out extensive environmental and socio-economic planning

The mining rate and the entry cost of the pilot program are low relative to the size of the known resource base and the upside potential. The Company estimates that it will cost C$25 million to implement its new strategy.

As previously announced (see news release of July 23, 2007 available at www.sedar.com), the Atlanta Gold project contains the following National Instrument 43-101compliant Measured, Indicated, and Inferred resources:


GOLD AND SILVER RESOURCES
	Tons (000’s)	Gold Grade Ounces per Ton	Ounces of Gold (000’s)	Silver Grade Ounces per Ton	Ounces of Silver (000’s)
Measured	16,434	0.058	958	0.151	2,483

Qualified Persons

The principal authors of the technical report which substantiates the above National Instrument 43-101 compliant resources are Mark E. Smith, P.E., G.E. (Idaho Registered Engineer #4960), Craig L. Parkinson, P.G. (Idaho Professional Geologist #811), and Krishna Sinha, Ph.D., P.E. (Utah Registered Engineer #27254), all of whom meet the requirements of independent Qualified Persons in accordance with Canadian Securities Administrators National Instrument 43-101, “Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects”.

The technical report is available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on the Company's website at www.atgoldinc.com.

The Atlanta Shear Zone is 8,000 feet long and 1,800 feet deep and it remains open at depth but no drill data is available below a depth of 1,800 feet. Historic production from Atlanta amounted to 400,000 ounces of gold and 2.9 million ounces of silver.

The Company’s current resource estimate plus historic production totals 1.8 million equivalent ounces of gold (based on a silver-gold price ratio of 50:1) or 3,000 equivalent ounces of gold per vertical foot to a depth of 600 feet. Drilling below a depth of 600 feet indicates continuity of both the Shear Zone and gold values. The Company has conservatively assumed, pending further exploration, continuity of only 50% of such values for another 1,200 feet of depth. This analysis indicates the potential for an underground operation and significant expansion of the resource.

About the Company

Atlanta Gold Inc. (TSX: ATG) holds through its 100% owned subsidiary, Atlanta Gold Corporation, a 100% interest in the Atlanta property which comprises 1,891 acres and is located 65 miles east of Boise, in Elmore County, Idaho. A long history of mining makes Atlanta very suitable for the development of new mining projects. ~~Atlanta was historically mined from at least 24 underground adits when the gold price was US$20 - $35 per ounce.~~

The Company is focused on advancing its core asset, Atlanta, towards mine development and production and on acquiring, exploring and developing other attractive gold projects.
