Kinbauri Drills 15.8m Grading 4.4g Au/t, 22.3g Ag/t and 0.41% Cu, Including 1.0m Grading 24.0g Au/t, 135g Ag/t and 1.81% Cu Announces Additional $2.7M Non-Dilutive Infusion

OTTAWA, ONTARIO, May 7th, 2008: Kinbauri Gold Corp. (“Kinbauri”) (Toronto: TSXV.KNB; Frankfurt: 3KG.DE) is pleased to announce more results from its on-going 23,000m underground drilling program at El Valle in northwestern Spain. Highlights of the assay results from the 107 Area/Black Skarn North zones include:

• 15.8m grading 4.42g Au/t, 22.3g Ag/t and 0.41% Cu in DDH08KV1093
including 2.6m grading 16.04g Au/t, 78.4g Ag/t and 1.06% Cu
• 21.5m grading 2.45g Au/t, 7.8g Ag/t and 0.26% Cu in DDH08KV1094
• 28.4m grading 2.25g Au/t, 10.6g Ag/t and 0.46% Cu in DDH08KV1098
including 1.35m grading 6.35g Au/t, 26.0g Ag/t and 1.66% Cu
• 17.95m grading 2.64g Au/t, 10.9g Ag/t and 0.60% Cu in DDH08KV1100
including 1.6m grading 7.04g Au/t, 28.0g Ag/t and 1.45% Cu
• 19.7m grading 2.29g Au/t, 13.7g Ag/t and 0.65% Cu in DDH08KV1101
including 1.6m grading 9.75g Au/t, 93.0g Ag/t and 5.06% Cu

The underground infill program continues to generate excellent results for Area 107 and Black Skarn North (“BSN”) and demonstrate good continuous substantial thicknesses for BSN. Assays received from the latest nine diamond drill holes are summarized as follows:

Please find the results under the following link: http://www.irw-press.com/dokumente/KNB_English_070508.pdf

Six of the diamond drill holes reported herein (DDHs 08KV1083, 1093, 1095, 1098, 1100 and 1102) are in-fill holes drilled on 25m centres within the Central Area of BSN. As expected, results confirm continuous substantial thicknesses that should allow BSN to be economically exploited through bulk mining. DDH 08KV1093 marks the inner edge of the BSN on section 3 (see Schedules).

DDH08KV1094 is on the most westerly section being drilled on BSN during this in-fill program and confirms the probability that the skarn mineralization continues for some distance to the south, potentially adding substantial resources at El Valle.

In other corporate news, Kinbauri is pleased to announce that it recently received a VAT (Value Added Tax) refund in the amount of $1.6M from the Spanish Government and is currently awaiting infusions of $750,000 from government subsidies; in addition $360,000US is pending from the sale of gold residue recovered from cleanup of the mill’s gravity circuit. Kinbauri is now well capitalized with the $1M from its recent private placement with Anglo Pacific Group (press release of April 23, 2008) and the $7.5M royalty payment (press release of March 10, 2008) that is expected to close by next Monday. It can now complete its 23,000M infill drilling program ahead of schedule and subsequently commence an aggressive exploratory drill program at its El Valle and Carlés properties in search of additional resources. The pending feasibility study, to be completed this year, will allow Kinbauri the alternative of financing the remainder of its pre-production development by non-dilutive alternatives.

The underground drill program at El Valle is being supervised by Mr. Santiago Gonzalez-Nistal, Kinbauri España’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.
