Glencairn Suspends Mining Operations at Its Bellavista Mine

TORONTO, ONTARIO -- July 25, 2007 - Glencairn Gold Corporation (TSX: GGG) (TSX: GGG.WT) (AMEX: GLE) announces that mining operations at the Bellavista Mine in Costa Rica will be suspended immediately due to concerns over recent ground movements. Glencairn is taking this precautionary measure until a full technical analysis has been completed and required remedial action has been implemented.

After initial review by a number of Costa Rican and international consultants, the Company believes that this movement is in part caused by water saturation due to abnormally high rain fall during the past several years. In some areas of the leach pad and waste pile, local ground movements have been identified in the range of one centimeter per day. Extensive ground monitoring has been undertaken and a number of remedial measures are underway to reduce ground movement including de-watering wells, surface water control, and redistribution of the weight load. Based on earth movement patterns in Costa Rica, the geological structure at the site, and the opinions of its experts, the Company does not believe that there is a risk of sudden earth movement at this time. However, continued small movements could compromise the sub-liner, liner and drain system. As a further precautionary measure, all cyanide application has been immediately suspended.

The Company expects advanced stage studies and analysis to be completed within the next few weeks. An update on the results of these studies and remedial measures being taken, along with the expected impact on the operation for the remainder of 2007, will be provided as soon as it is available.

"Glencairn has assembled a first class team of national and international experts including the original design engineering firm at Bellavista, and has installed extensive monitoring and modeling stations" said Peter Tagliamonte, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We are committed to resolve the ground movement issue in a proper, safe and effective manner and have a permanent solution in place as soon as possible".
