                Updated Resource Estimate for SREP and Days Vein

      Expands Resource and significantly Increases Grade by up to 47%

Nov. 3, 2008                                                                                             Trading Symbol (TSX-V):RML

Vancouver, Canada ? The Company is very pleased to report that it has received an updated resource

estimate for the San Rafael/El Placer Project (SREP) and the Days Vein, located in the El Dorado District

in southeastern Venezuela.  The project is 100% owned by Rusoro Mining Ltd, and is strategically located

adjacent to the La Camorra Block, currently the subject of a 50/50 Joint Venture with the Venezuelan government.

These independent NI 43-101 resource estimates have been prepared by the consulting firm Micon International

and the report was authored by independent qualified person Dave Laudrum P.Geo.

Table      SREP/Days Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate at October 2008

1    It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an Inferred Mineral Resource will be upgraded

       to an Indicated or Measured Mineral Resource as a result of continued exploration. 

2    Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.

3    Numbers may not add due to rounding.

4    Indicated Resources are confined to the better defined portions of the main D and E3 zones.

The SREP Resource Estimate uses a cut off grade of 8.0 g/t Au, a minimum width of one metre, a density

(specific gravity) of 2.80 g/cm³, and capping of high grade gold assays at 80 g/t Au.  The Mineral Resource for the

Days Vein was estimated using a cut-off grade of 2.0 g/t Au for material down to 50 m below the present topographic

surface and a cut-off grade of 8.0 g/t Au for material below 50 m.  The Days Vein Resource Estimate also used a minimum

width of 1.0 m, and a density 2.80 g/cm³.

In relation to the previous resource estimate which was prepared by Roscoe Postle Associates (RPA) in July of 2006 the

updated SREP Indicated resource (639,000t @ 19.41g/t Au) saw contained ounces decreased by 21% (-91,000oz) while the

updated Inferred resource ounces (703,000t @ 23.16g/t Au) increased by 42% (+156,000oz).  A significant increase in grade

for both categories (17% for the Indicated and 47% for the Inferred) was also documented in the updated resource estimate. 

For the Days Vein the updated inferred ounces (209,000t @ 5.50g/t Au) increased by 2% with a 143% increase in grade.

The updated resource estimates include a significant amount of new drill data bringing the drill spacing for most areas of

the deposits to at least 25 metres by 25 metres.  The updated SREP estimate includes an additional 246 drill holes (61,391.1m)

for a total of 568 drill holes totalling 151,408.9 metres, while Days Vein estimate includes an additional 99 drill holes

(12,999.5 metres) for a total of 159 drill holes (18,152.75m).

The development of a 1.8 km exploration ramp (4.5m by 4.0m) is well underway and is designed to access the main portion

of the SREP deposit at approximately 120 metres below surface.  The ramp and mine development is scheduled for completion

in mid 2009. 

?The higher grades reported in these estimates, coming as a result of an increase in drill intercept density and an increase in the

cut off grades at San Rafael-El Placer, are certainly consistent with grades historically mined in the district.  The zones remain

open at depth, with the structural zone hosting San Rafael-El Placer remaining relatively untested all the way up to the

neighbouring La Camorra concession boundary to the Southeast.? Reports Greg Smith, Vice-President of Exploration

Diamond drilling was conducted by Major Drilling of Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada and Core-Beil Drilling of Puerto

Ordaz Venezuela.  RC drilling was completed by AK Drilling of Peru.  All drilling and drill sampling has been completed using

industry standard practices.  All drill core is described in detail and photographed and one half of the core remains for inspection

and reference.

Sample analyses have been conducted at SGS labs of El Dorado and Triad Labs located in El Callao Venezuela with additional

check assays completed at Actlab Facility in Tumeremo, Venezuela..  All sample analyses was completed using industry standard

practices and standard samples, blanks and duplicate check samples were randomly inserted into the sample stream to ensure quality

control.  A review of the QA/QC results shows no significant bias and all results are considered highly reliable.  Sample rejects

for all drill samples are stored in Rusoro?s secure facilities in Tumeremo, Venezuela, and will continue to be available for any further

testing which may be required.
