6^th July 2009 : Galantas Gold Corporation (the Company) has received provisional production tonnages for the second quarter (April-June) 2009 (Q2) from its wholly owned subsidiary Omagh Minerals Limited (OML). OML operates the only gold mine in Ireland and produces a concentrate containing gold, silver and lead.

April�s production was 125.5 wet tonnes of concentrate and was affected by a breakdown in the first half of the month. May saw 264.3 wet tonnes of concentrate produced, with June�s production measuring 311 wet tonnes (two consecutive monthly records), a total of 701 wet tonnes for the quarter (661 dry tonnes). Metal contents remain to be fully assessed, though it is anticipated that shipments for the second quarter contained approximately 1977 troy ounces of gold, 5972 troy ozs of silver and 90.4 tonnes of lead. The production and metal figures are provisional and subject to averaging or umpiring provisions under the concentrate off-take contract with Xstrata Corporation detailed in a press release dated 3^rd October 2007.

The quarter�s output showed an approximate 65% increase in gold,  114% increase in silver and 185% increase in lead compared to the second quarter of 2008 and an approximately 30.8% increase in gold, 24.8% increase in silver and 114% increase in lead output compared to the first quarter of 2009. Processing plant throughput for Q2 2009 increased approximately 64% from Q2 2008.

The increases in output are due in part to improvements in productivity brought about by increased capability of pit equipment and to enhanced lead and silver grades within the open pit. Increased sales of concentrate have improved cash availability although the Company still suffers from a shortage of working capital. The unaudited financial results for the quarter will be published in the usual timeframe by the end of August 2009.

An overhaul of OML�s Volvo EC460 excavator is complete and has moved top-soil from part of the area of a second gold vein, the Kerr Vein. A smaller unit (OML�s Volvo EC140) will continue the task of removing peat and till. The Kerr Vein is offset by approximately 250 metres to the west from the Kearney Vein, which is the main focus of operations. The Kerr Vein pit is planned to later be incorporated into the paste cell tailings storage arrangement.

A program to explore OML�s 653 square kilometre license area will shortly recommence. The program had earlier been put on hold to prioritise grade control within the open pit but management is now sufficiently confident of performance to recommence.

The Annual and Special Meeting of shareholders of Galantas Gold Corporation was held on Monday 15^th June 2009 at The Board Of Trade, Toronto, Canada. All resolutions (as outlined in the proxy circular to shareholders) were carried.
