Entree Gold Announces Third Quarter 2011 Results - "During the three months ended September 30, 2011, the Company incurred a net loss of US$3,506,238 ($0.03 per share) compared to a net loss of US$6,547,970 ($0.06 per share) in the three months ended September 30, 2010. The decrease in net loss is primarily due to the combination of decreased mineral exploration activities in Mongolia as the Company continues to focus on its Yerington copper porphyry projects, the gain on sale of its asset backed commercial paper and a deferred income tax recovery. As at September 30, 2011, the Company had working capital of US$10,321,520, including cash of US$10,477,360." More
