Eldorado Provides Additional Positive Assay Results from

Tanjianshan Project China

VANCOUVER, BC – Eldorado Gold Corporation (“Eldorado” the “Company” or “we”) is pleased to announce additional results of the 2005 drill campaign at our Tanjianshan Project (“TJS Project”) in Qinghai Province, China.  The TJS Project currently consists of two deposits, Jinlonggou (“JLG” and Qinlongtan (“QLT”), and is under construction ahead of planned mining in 2006.

The results augment the information released September 26, 2005  (ELD  No.  05-15).  These data are part of the 52 drill hole program completed at JLG  which successfully  tested an updated geological interpretation of the area structures and mineralized horizons that connect JLG  (main zone) to the adjacent prospects of M7 – Pubugou (see Figure 1 for hole locations).  The drilling also successfully infilled gaps in the drill coverage within the existing JLG pit outline (see Figure 2).   

Drilling comprised HQ size core and utilized 3 Chinese contractor drill rigs.  

The following table (Table 1) shows the results from 34 additional holes from the JLG campaign.  Please note that the reported assayed intervals are approximately equal to interpreted true widths for the mineralization.

Stephen Juras, Ph.D., P.Geo., Manager, Geology is the qualified person for the technical disclosure in this press release.  Samples are prepared at Eldorado’s on-site facility in China and assayed at the SGS-CSTC Standards Technical Services Co. Ltd. facility at Tianjin, China.  Analysis for gold is done on sawn half core samples using fire assay (AA finish) on a 50 g charge.  Standard reference materials, blank and field duplicate samples are inserted prior to shipment from site to monitor the quality control of the assay data.  In addition, about 10% of the samples are re-submitted for duplicate analysis at STAR Laboratory in Perth, Australia.

Geologic modeling of the new drill information is ongoing and will be incorporated into a new block model during Q4 2005. That work should be completed and the mineral resources restated by year end.   Based on the new model an optimized mine plan will be designed and the mineral reserves restated during Q1 2006.
