ORE Orezone Gold Corporation

Kinbauri Gold Corp. ("Kinbauri") (TSX VENTURE:KNB)(FRANKFURT:3KG.DE) is pleased
to announce that it has received a 43-101 compliant resource up-date from Ore
Reserves Engineering of Lakewood, Colorado ("ORE") on the El Valle/Carles
Project (the "Project") in northwestern Spain. Resources for the project now
total:




- Measured and Indicated: 916,000 ounces gold plus 113 million pounds
  copper
 (6.2Mt at 4.6g Au/t and 0.85% Cu; cut-off grades vary from 1.5 to 3.5g
  Au Eq/t).
- Inferred: 1,097,000 ounces gold plus 74 million pounds copper
 (6.6Mt at 5.2g Au/t and 0.55% Cu; cut-off grades vary from 1.5 to 3.5g
  Au Eq/t).



Marked Increase in Resources: This up-date (see Schedule A for zone details and
cut-offs) shows an increase of 52 percent in ounces of gold and 125 percent in
pounds of copper over the N.I. 43-101 compliant estimate prepared by ORE on
March 21st, 2007 just prior to purchase of the Project. These increases result
primarily from 29,060 m of underground drilling at El Valle and 1,250 m at
Carles and consists of increases in the different resource categories as
follows:



- 439,000 ounces of gold and 56M pounds of copper measured and indicated.

- 251,800 ounces of gold and 48M pounds of copper inferred.

Accessible Zones for Potential 10 Year Mine Life at El Valle: Kinbauri's
work-to-date has identified the following resources in four zones (Area 107
("A107"), Black Skarn North ("BSN"), Charnela South ("CS") and Monica), all
easily accessible from the present mine workings (see Schedule B):


- 787,000 ounces of gold and 98 million lbs of copper (5.1Mt at 4.8g Au/t and
0.86% Cu:cut-off grades Monica and BSN - 2.6g Au Eq/t; CS and A107 - 3.5 Au
Eq/t) measured and indicated.


- 485,000 ounces of gold and 36 million lbs of copper (2.6Mt of 5.9g Au/t and
0.64% Cu: cut-off grades Monica and BSN - 2.6g Au Eq/t; CS and A107 - 3.5 Au
Eq/t) inferred.


Subject to their conversion to reserves at feasibility, these resources could
easily support a 10 year mine life at projected annual rates of production.


Blue Sky: Kinbauri's drill programs have focused on defining resources that will
allow a timely recommencement of production at El Valle. However, it has become
apparent that significant additional resources can be defined:


(1) In those zones not drilled to date (e.g. El Valle Fault, East Breccia, West
Skarn, High Angle 1 and 2 as well as repetitive skarns at depth).


(2) In open zones (e.g. southwest extension of the Black Skarn North, Area 107,
San Martin Zone, etc).


Dr. Rampton, Kinbauri's President & CEO commented "We are pleased that the
resources identified to date, specifically those measured and indicated, have
matched our expectations and that we can now continue with planning and
implementing recommencement of operations at El Valle and Carles. A Scoping
Study is nearing completion. What is exciting is that Kinbauri has taken a
project with a reported 1.3M ounces gold in 2007 and surpassed the 2M ounce mark
while maintaining considerable upside potential. We were able to complete our
work to date without exhausting our working capital, which allows us some time
in weighing various financial alternatives to move forward."


The current resource up-date was prepared by Mr. A. C. Noble, P.E. of ORE, a
qualified person as defined by N.I. 43-101. Inverse distance power was utilized
for estimating resources within geologically defined wire-frame solids. It is
anticipated that ORE will have the full technical report available for filing on
Sedar within the next two weeks.
