Centamin Egypt Limited ("Centamin" or "the Company") (TSX:

Josef El-Raghy, Managing Director/CEO of Centamin,
commented:
"For the last 8 years Aim has provided Centamin with the
platform to grow its business and help raise the capital required
to build what is the largest gold resource outside of the major
gold companies to come into production this year. With the Sukari
Gold Project coming on-stream today's promotion to the Main Market
of the London Stock Exchange marks the next chapter for growing our
business into a significant mid-tier gold producer."
Tracey Pierce, Head of Equity Capital Markets at London Stock
Exchange Group, said:
"We are delighted to welcome Centamin Egypt to the Main Market
today. As the sixth company this year to make the move from AIM to
the Main Market, Centamin has been one of AIM's biggest success
stories, increasing its market capitalisation by over sixty times
since its admission in 2001, illustrating the valuable role the
market plays in facilitating the growth of smaller companies.
"The company's choice to consolidate its international listings
in London is a reflection of the strength and international profile
of the London markets, and Centamin follows a number of other
ambitious mining companies that have used the London Stock Exchange
as a springboard for their global ambitions."
