RML Rusoro Mining Ltd

Rusoro Mining Ltd. (TSX VENTURE: RML) ("Rusoro") wishes to clarify that it has had no indication from the Government of Venezuela of any changes to the Company's operations in regards to certain statements in the media concerning nationalization of gold projects in Venezuela.

The statements quoted referenced the Venezuelan Government's wish to control serious ongoing problems with widespread illegal mining operations and smuggling within the remote southeastern region of the country.

Rusoro President and CEO Andre Agapov states that, "We believe the Government's announcement is targeted toward the many illegal mining operations in Bolivar State that operate without government permits and continue to cause significant environmental damage through indiscriminant deforestation and the use of mercury. Gold produced by these illegal operations is often smuggled out of the country or sold illegally, and the government is now taking action."

Rusoro continues to produce gold from two operations, the open pit Choco 10 mine and the high grade underground Isidora mine, a 50/50 joint venture with the Venezuelan Government. The Company continues to advance two additional development projects, the Increible 6 project which will provide additional oxide ore for the Choco 10 mill and the underground SREP project.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD

Andre Agapov, President & CEO
