NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

VANCOUVER, BC - Paul N. Wright, President and Chief Executive Officer of Eldorado Gold Corporation (‘Eldorado” the “Company” or “we”) is pleased to announce further results from this year’s drilling at the Efemçukuru Project in Western Turkey. These holes are part of an ongoing 13,000 meter infill and exploration drill program, now approximately 40 percent complete.

The drilling targeted the South Ore Shoot and the Transition Zone between the South and Middle Ore Shoots. Results from eight holes are shown in Table 1 and illustrated in a Longitudinal Section. Results are pending from an additional 15 holes. Calculated intervals generally used a 6 g/t gold cut off with the inclusion of some assays less than 6 g/t if they fell within the vein.

The infill results continue to confirm thickness and tenor of the mineralization interpolated from nearby previous drill holes. Transition zone drilling, as reported in the November 3, 2006 press release, confirmed the new presence of thick and high grade gold mineralization (KV-129) in the region at depth and between the South and Middle Ore Shoots. Future drill holes are planned into this region.

“These results, especially those of our first test into the previously undrilled Transition Zone, continue to support our belief of being able to significantly upgrade the mineral resources of the Efemçukuru Project,” commented Paul Wright, President & Chief Executive Officer.

Stephen Juras, Ph.D., P.Geo., Manager, Geology is the qualified person for the technical disclosure in this press release. Samples are prepared at Eldorado’s facility in Turkey and assayed at the ALS facility at Perth, Australia. Samples from hole KV-129 were assayed at the Eldorado mine laboratory facility at Kisladag. Duplicate samples have been sent to ALS to independently verify the results from this hole.

Analysis for gold is done on sawn half core samples and reverse circulation cuttings using fire assay (AA finish). Higher grade samples (≥ 5 g/t) were re-assayed using fire assay with a gravimetric finish. Standard reference materials, blank and field duplicate samples are inserted prior to shipment from site to monitor the quality control of the assay data. In addition, about 20% of the samples were re-submitted for duplicate analysis at Assayers Canada laboratory in Vancouver, Canada.

Eldorado is a gold producing and exploration company actively growing businesses in Brazil, Turkey and China. We operate the São Bento Mine, Kisladag Mine and Tanjianshan Mine. With our international expertise in mining, finance and project development, together with highly skilled and dedicated staff, we believe that Eldorado is well positioned to grow in value as we create and pursue new opportunities.
