      Las Cristinas Arbitration Temporarily Suspended
=======================================================================

Infinito Gold Ltd. ("the Company") announces that it has been advised
by the International Center for the Settlement of Investment Disputes
("ICSID"), that the President of the Arbitral Tribunal appointed to
rule on the Las Cristinas matter, Dr. Robert Briner, has resigned his
appointment in the case due to ill health.  The parties to the
Arbitration, namely the Company and the Bolivarian Republic of
Venezuela ("Venezuela"), have been directed to proceed with the
appointment of an arbitrator to replace Dr. Briner.  Once the process
is completed the new President of the Tribunal will join co-arbitrators
Prof. Brigitte Stern and Judge Charles Brower.

A hearing to present the merits of the case has been scheduled to
commence on December 7, 2009 in Washington D.C. but it is likely that
this timing can not be achieved because of the process required to
select a replacement arbitrator, have that person become familiar with
the case and co-ordinate the timing of the proceeding.

The Company maintains that its rights to mine Las Cristinas were
expropriated in a discriminatory manner and without prompt, adequate
and effective compensation by Venezuela. An investment of approximately
US$ 185 million has been made by the Company's subsidiary for the
exploration and development of the properties that led to a
determination of reserves in excess of 12 million ounces of gold and
over 1 billion pounds of copper.

The Company is requesting remedies under the Bilateral Investment
Treaty between Canada and Venezuela and restitution of its contractual
rights to mine the property plus damages or monetary damages of
approximately US$ 1.1 billion.  The Company alleges that the Government
of Venezuela including their agency the CVG, which owns five percent of
MINCA, breached the Bilateral Investment Treaty in place between
Venezuela and Canada.  The Company also alleges that the Government of
Venezuela has expropriated the investments of Infinito Gold Ltd.
Vannessa de Venezuela and MINCA without due process of law, in a
discriminatory manner and without prompt, adequate and effective
compensation, contrary to Article VII of the Bilateral Investment
Treaty, and that the Government of Venezuela failed to accord fair and
equitable treatment and full security to Vannessa de Venezuela and
MINCA, contrary to Article II (2) of the Treaty.

While the company is confident in the validity of its position, there
can be no assurance that it will be successful in all, or part, of its
claims and any award granted will be shared with other parties
according to pre-existing contractual agreements.
