Evolving Gold Reaches Settlement with Daniel E. Wolfus

VANCOUVER, June 17 /CNW/ - Evolving Gold Corp. (TSXV: EVG) (FSE: EV7) (the "Company") announces that on May 25, 2010, the Company and Daniel E. Wolfus reached a settlement in connection with Mr. Wolfus' claim against the Company. As a result of the settlement, Mr. Wolfus' lawsuit will be discontinued in consideration for a one-time payment of $150,000. Mr. Wolfus' claim was for services rendered to the Company in connection with its most recently completed private placement. The Company strongly believes in the merits of its defense and neither the settlement amount nor the settlement itself should be considered an admission of any liability by the Company, which agreed to the settlement for reasons related to the adverse economics and management diversion created by defending this lawsuit in California.

The Company also reports that Mr. Wolfus has resigned as a director of the Company effective immediately in order to focus his efforts on other resource issuers with which he is involved. The Company thanks Mr. Wolfus for his service as a director.
