NewWest Gold Corporation Announces Initiation of Phase Two Drilling at Long Canyon

Lakewood, Colorado, November 14 (ots/PRNewswire)

NewWest Gold
Corporation (TSX: NWG) ("NewWest" or "the Company") today announced
that it commenced the Phase Two drilling program at its Long Canyon
project on November 10, 2006. The program was expanded to 13 holes
from six holes based upon the positive results obtained by previous
exploration  programs at Long Canyon. The objectives of the Phase Two
program are to test  for extensions along strike and down-dip from
gold-bearing zones obtained in previous drilling and to confirm the
geologic interpretation developed from  the Phase One drilling
results and the roadcut sampling and mapping program.  Total footage
to be drilled during Phase Two is approximately 4,550 feet.  Complete
results from the Phase One program were reported on September 21,
2006 and are available on the Company's website at
www.newwestgold.com. The  roadcut rock chip sample results were
reported on October 31, 2006 and are  also available on the Company's
website.
Background
NewWest and AuEx Ventures Inc. ("AuEx") agreed by way of a letter
of intent to complete a definitive joint venture agreement for the
Long Canyon project whereby the two parties will combine their
respective land positions in the Long Canyon Area. Under the terms of
the letter of intent, the Company is the operator and may earn a 51%
interest in the consolidated project if it spends $5 million on the
