Eldorado Gold Confirms Filing of Application for Payment in Greece

18.09.2018  |  CNW

TSX: ELD   NYSE: EGO

VANCOUVER, Sept. 18, 2018 - Eldorado Gold Corp. ("Eldorado" or "the Company") confirms that its Greek subsidiary, Hellas Gold S.A. ("Hellas Gold"), has filed an Application for Payment (the "Application") with the Hellenic Republic (the "Greek State"). The Application requests payment of approximately €750 million for damages suffered by the Company arising from delays in the issuance of permits for the Skouries project, including damages for out of pocket costs and loss of profits. The Application is a non-judicial request for payment and does not initiate legal proceedings.

George Burns, Eldorado Gold's President and CEO said, "The Application represents a good-faith attempt to resolve the matter with the Greek State as it relates to costs incurred resulting from permit delays to our Skouries project. Eldorado has always acted in a manner consistent with finding a mutually-agreeable solution to responsibly developing Skouries. We hope that this matter can be resolved in an amicable manner without needing to go down the route of arbitration."

We have made certain assumptions about the forward-looking statements and information, including assumptions about the geopolitical, economic, permitting and legal climate that we operate in; the future price of gold and other commodities; exchange rates; anticipated costs and expenses; production, mineral reserves and resources and metallurgical recoveries, the impact of acquisitions, dispositions, suspensions or delays on our business and the ability to achieve our goals. In particular, except where otherwise stated, we have assumed a continuation of existing business operations on substantially the same basis as exists at the time of this release.
