Company Confirms Results of Director Elections

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired) -- 06/27/13 -- Entree Gold Inc. (TSX: ETG)(NYSE MKT: EGI)(FRANKFURT: EKA) - "Entree" or the "Company") announces that, following the Company's Annual General Meeting of shareholders held on June 27, 2013, the Rt. Honourable Lord Howard of Lympne has been appointed non-executive Chairman of the Company's Board of Directors. As Chairman, he succeeds James Harris, who remains a member of the Board and assumes the role of non-executive Deputy Chairman.


Lord Howard has served as a Director and non-executive Deputy Chairman of the Company since 2007. He is the former leader of the Conservative Party in Britain, a distinguished lawyer, and served as a Member of Parliament in Britain for 27 years. He will work closely with Entree's management and Board as the Company progresses through important milestones in the advancement of its global mining projects.


Greg Crowe, President and CEO of Entree, commented, "We are very pleased that Lord Howard has assumed the role of non-executive Chairman. Lord Howard has been a valued member of our Board for many years now and we have benefitted from his years of international experience and strong understanding of the financial markets. He has extensive experience and many key relationships in Mongolia, and was recently awarded the Order of the Polar Star, the highest state honour that can be awarded to a non-citizen of Mongolia. I have no doubt that, as Chairman, he will play a significant role in ensuring we effectively leverage the opportunities that lie ahead as we continue to execute on our strategy and grow our business. We thank James Harris for his services as Chairman, and look forward to his continued contributions to Entree as Deputy Chairman."


The Company also confirms that all of the nominees set forth in the Company's Information Circular dated May 23, 2013 were elected as Directors of Entree. Peter Meredith did not stand for re-election to the Company's Board, and the Company thanks him for his valuable contributions since his appointment in 2004. The detailed results of the vote for the election of Directors are set out below.


According to proxies received, each of the following seven nominees proposed by management was elected as a Director of the Company until the next annual meeting of shareholders, or until such person's successor is elected or appointed:
