CENTRAL SUN ANNOUNCES FULL ENVIRONMENTAL APPROVAL
FOR OROSI MINE PROJECT

On March 28, 2008, the Nicaraguan Department of Environment, MARENA (Minesterio del Ambiente y los Recursos Naturales de Nicaragua) issued Central Sun Mining Inc. full environmental permitting for the construction, operation and maintenance of the Orosi Mine Project which includes process plant upgrade and tailing management facility. The Orosi Mine is located 110 kilometres east of Managua, the capital city of Nicaragua.

“We are very pleased with the issuance of the full environmental permitting for the Orosi Mine Expansion Project, including the tailing dam facilities,” said Central Sun’s President & CEO, Peter Tagliamonte. “The project team has done an exceptional job of working closely and co-operatively with the Nicaraguan Governmental agencies. With the permitting in place, Central Sun will continue on the fast track schedule with gold production expected to start in the first quarter 2009.”

Orosi Mine Project

Central Sun is currently converting the Orosi Mine from a heap leach operation to a conventional milling operation. Recoveries are anticipated to increase from 38% previously being achieved from heap leaching to over 90% with conventional milling based on extensive metallurgical testing. Production is expected to start in the first quarter of 2009 at a rate of approximately 85,000 ounces of gold per year. A positive scoping study was completed in March 2007 and the full feasibility study is expected to be completed in April 2008.

The Orosi Mine Project is on track, with all of the equipment from the dismantled Getchell mill in Nevada having been successfully shipped to Nicaragua and transported to the Orosi Mine site. Orosi will position Central Sun as an emerging gold producer, with expected annual production at a rate of 125,000 ounces per year starting in 2009.

The mineral reserve and updated resource estimates for the Orosi Mine are being prepared in conjunction with the feasibility study commissioned by Scott Wilson Roscoe Postle Associates Inc. The new mineral reserve and resource estimates for Central Sun will be issued once the feasibility study has been completed.
