Item 3. News Release

  The News Release dated September 28, 2005 was disseminated via CCN Matthews, Canadian and U.S. Timely Disclosure.

Item 4. Summary of Material Change

  The Company reported assays from its Copper Flats drill hole EDG0053 returned a mineralized intersection of 70 metres of 1.79% copper and 1.26 g/t gold for acopper equivalent grade of 2.61%. This intersection extended the mineralization north of the Entrée – Ivanhoe Mines Ltd. (NYSE: IVN; TSX: IVN; – “Ivanhoe”) property boundary to 625 metres along strike.

  The Company also reported that hole OTD1218, collared on Ivanhoe’s Oyu Tolgoi property approximately 220 metres south of Entrée’s Copper Flats, has intersected strong copper and gold mineralization on Entrée’s ground. The hole was drilled so as to cut the Hugo North extension at close to a right angle, midway between the high-grade intercepts in holes EGD006 and EGD016. OTD1218 returned a 114 metre interval averaging 4.33% copper and 2.64 g/t gold for a copper equivalent grade of 6.04%.

SCHEDULE “A”

DRILLING CONTINUES TO EXTEND HUGO NORTH ON
ENTRÉE’S COPPER FLATS

Vancouver, B.C., Wednesday September 28, 2005 Entrée Gold Inc. (TSX-V: ETG; AMEX: EGI – “Entrée” or the “Company”) reports that drill hole EGD053 on the Copper Flats region of its Lookout Hill property has intersected high-grade copper and gold mineralization approximately 625 metres along-strike north of the joint Entrée – Ivanhoe Mines Ltd. (NYSE: IVN; TSX: IVN; – “Ivanhoe”) property boundary. The mineralization was encountered approximately 175 metres north of the most northerly previous intersection of the Hugo North deposit (EGD008).

Varying degrees of chalcopyrite and bornite mineralization were intersected in EGD053 between 1,312 and 1,496 metres down-hole. Lesser amounts of copper mineralization were intersected from 1,256 to 1,312 metres. A high-grade interval was intersected between 1,340 and 1,382 metres and yielded an average grade of 2.62% copper and 2.07 grams per tonne (“g/t”) gold, for a copper equivalent grade of 3.96% (see table, below). This interval occurred within a wider zone (1,326 – 1,396 metres) that averaged 1.79% copper and 1.26 g/t gold (copper equivalent grade of 2.61%). A lower mineralized intercept (1,418.3 – 1,496 metres) was encountered below a 22.3 metre dyke and yielded 77.7 metres of 0.96% copper and 0.30 g/t gold (copper equivalent grade of 1.15% copper).

The EGD053 mineralization commences at a vertical depth of approximately 1,200 metres and is interpreted to represent the upper portion of the extension of the Hugo North deposit. Elsewhere on Copper Flats, the deposit typically widens and becomes higher grade down-dip from the interpreted top of the system.

The mineralization intersected by hole EGD053 lies further to the west than had been anticipated, supporting previous indications that the Hugo North extension may be shifting back to the 010oN – 030oN orientation that it commonly has on Ivanhoe’s Oyu Tolgoi property. A daughter hole (EGD053A) currently is in progress to target the deposit approximately 100 metres below the EGD053 intercept.

Greg Crowe, Entrée’s President and CEO, commented: “The intersection in hole EGD053 is very significant. As was previously reported, hole ETG020, designed to test the Hugo North mineralized system approximately 450 metres north of hole EGD008 (300 metres north of hole EGD053), was lost due to technical difficulties at a down-hole depth of 1,119 metres — approximately 200 metres above the targeted depth of mineralization. With the success of EGD053, we now have confirmation that Hugo North remains open to the north.”

In addition to hole EGD053A, Ivanhoe is now drilling holes EGD082 and EGD081, collared, respectively, approximately 150 metres and 750 metres north of holes EGD053/053A. Ongoing, systematic testing will be required to document and fully understand the apparent change in trend of the system, as well as variations in thicknesses and grade along strike and down dip.






Other Ivanhoe/Entrée Project Drilling

Separately, hole OTD1218, collared on Ivanhoe’s Oyu Tolgoi property approximately 220 metres south of Entrée’s Copper Flats, has intersected strong copper and gold mineralization between 1,182 and 1,342 metres. The hole was drilled in a northwestward direction onto Entrée’s ground, so as to cut the Hugo North extension at close to a right angle, midway between the high-grade intercepts in holes EGD006 and EGD016.

OTD1218 returned a 114 metre interval averaging 4.33% copper and 2.64 g/t gold for a copper equivalent grade of 6.04% (see table, below), immediately overlain by a 46 metre interval averaging 1.34% copper and 0.16 g/t gold (copper equivalent grade of 1.45%). Several individual, 2 metre-wide samples within this mineralized zone yielded values in excess of 9% copper and 5 g/t gold. Hole OTD1218 confirms the presence and continuity of very high-grade copper and gold mineralization in the vicinity of previously-reported holes EGD006/6A and EGD016.

A second hole, OTD1219, has been collared due north of OTD1218, approximately 40 metres south of the Entrée – Ivanhoe boundary and is being drilled parallel to OTD1218. The hole is targeting the Hugo North extension midway between holes EGD016 and EGD008.

Independent Exploration Update

Entrée continues its independent exploration of its 100% owned Lookout Hill property. Two drill rigs are currently testing geophysical, geochemical and geological targets at Zones I/II and at Bayan Ovoo. A third rig is about to commence testing deeper, induced polarization geophysical targets at Zones I/II.

Separately, geophysical and geochemical surveys are now completed on the Company’s Ulziit Uul property, located approximately 120 kilometres north of Lookout Hill. Drilling of selected targets is expected to commence within the coming weeks.
