Other Corporate Development

Following recommendations in the recently completed Scoping Study (SEDAR filed Technical Report of March 9, 2009) for accessing the El Valle Mine via a decline near the entrance to the El Valle mill, Kinbauri's engineers have developed a plan that they believe could significantly reduce pre-production capital expenditures and shorten the time required to recommence operations at El Valle. Kinbauri will have this new mine plan vetted in the upcoming feasibility study which is scheduled to begin in May, 2009.

Dr. Rampton will record a "Beyond The Press Release" on the Company's official Investor Relations Site at http://www.agoracom.com/ir/kinbauri, where these developments will be discussed in detail. The recording is expected to be available on or after April 17th, 2009.
