Glencairn resumes operations at Limon Mine

Glencairn Gold Corporation is pleased to announce that operations have resumed at its Limon Mine in Nicaragua after a three-week shutdown due to a blockade on the road between the mine and the mill site. The blockade was set up by a group of former employees who were terminated in December 2005 when the Company reduced its workforce by 85 people, or approximately 18%, as part of an overall cost-reduction program at the mine.

The recent dispute involved a small number of the laid off workers who were demanding that their positions with the Company be restored. The termination of these employees was upheld by the Nicaraguan government and their severance was paid by the Company to the court as required by law. The two sides have agreed that operations will resume as negotiations continue, and Glencairn is optimistic that a permanent solution to this issue can be worked out in the near future.
