Kinbauri Gold Corp. ("Kinbauri") (TSX VENTURE: KNB) (FRANKFURT:
3KG.DE) announces continued success with its underground drilling
program at El Valle in northwestern Spain. The primary objectives
of this drill program are (1) to convert up to 100,000 ounces of
gold from the inferred category to the measured and indicated
categories, and (2) to provide concrete results in support of mine
planning and design as required in scoping and feasibility studies.

Area 107 Resource Upgrades
Most of the infill holes, 08KV1172 through 08KV1176, will result
in resources, previously classified as being inferred for Area 107,
now being classified as measured and indicated. This applies to
those holes intersecting epithermal mineralization as well as for
those where the epithermal mineralization intersects skarn
mineralization; the later resulting in high gold and copper
grades.
San Martin Extension
The San Martin zone has now been extended over 150m to the
southeast (see locations of 08KV1170 and 1171R on Schedule A
available at the following address:
http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/A.pdf). If this zone is
continuous under, or into, the base of the Monica Zone, the
viability of the project would be strengthened with the addition of
more resources in this area; this will be determined through future
drilling. See Schedule B for the locations of all zones, available
at the following address:
http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/B.pdf.
The underground drill program at El Valle and Carles is being
supervised by Mr. Santiago Gonzalez-Nistal, Kinbauri Espana's
senior geologist, with quality control being provided by Dr. C. F.
Gleeson, P. Eng., Kinbauri's Vice-President of Exploration: both
are qualified persons as defined by N.I. 43-101. Details of
Kinbauri's Assay and Quality Assurance Programs are reported in a
press release of February 27th, 2008.
Resource Increase: El Valle Fault Zone
Ore Reserves Engineering ("ORE") is continuing to up-date
resource estimates for several smaller zones that are outside of
the Kinbauri drilling programs completed during 2007 and 2008. The
updated estimates will incorporate drilling by Rio Narcea Gold
Mines S.L. ("RNGM") that was completed after RNGM's earlier
resource estimates. The new models also incorporate the current
geological understanding of these zones; in addition, newer,
advanced estimation methods are used that better define
mineralization. The updated resource estimate for the El Valle
Fault zone, which is contiguous with Area 107, is complete. The
updated estimate, effective January 15, 2008, has resulted in an
increase of 54,270 ounces of gold and 343 tonnes of copper in the
indicated category and 16,830 ounces of gold and 216 tonnes of
copper in the inferred category from the last N.I. 43-101 Resource
up-date completed by ORE. Resource updates for the East Breccia
zone, and the High Angle 1 and 2 zones are in progress. A resource
estimate for the Area 208 zone, for which resources have not been
estimated previously (see Schedule B for locations), is also in
progress. A significant increase in resources is anticipated.
Current updated resource estimates for the El Valle Fault (based
on a cut-off of 3.5g AuEq (ppm Au plus % Cu times 1.66)) are:
- Indicated: 54,270 oz gold and 755 thousand lbs copper
(195,300t at 8.6g Au/t and 0.2% Cu)
- Inferred: 117,830 oz gold and 2.7 million lbs copper (524,800t
at 7.0g Au/t and 0.2% Cu)
Other Corporate Developments
The strategic review being completed by Kinbauri in conjunction
with M Partners Inc. (see our press release of December 15th, 2008)
continues to proceed expeditiously. The scoping study being
prepared by Scott Wilson Roscoe Postle Associates has been delayed,
but is expected to be received in February.
This press release has been prepared by Drs. V. N. Rampton, P.
Eng. and C. F. Gleeson, P. Eng. in their capacity as qualified
persons. Dr. Rampton will be recording a "Beyond the Press Release"
webcast concerning the assay results from the 107 Area and San
Martin zone and how these affect development at El Valle/Carles
project on Kinbauri's Investor Relations site at
http://www.agoracom.com/IR/kinbauri on or after January 19th, 2009.
Dr. Rampton will be hosting Kinbauri's booth at the Vancouver
Cambridge Gold Show on January 25th and 26th.
