Republic Gold Limited Stock Market Press Releases and Company Profile

Brisbane, Dec 12, 2007 AEST (ABN Newswire) - The Board of Republic Gold ("Republic" or the "Company")(ASX: RAU) today announces that over the past weekend the Company hosted a delegation of senior executives from a major Chinese mining group. This mining group has an annual turnover of approximately AUD$3B.

The members of the delegation expressed great interest in investing outside of China and in Republic's prospects in particular. This company has two investments already outside of China, both in Africa. The delegation travelled to Australia with the sole purpose of visiting the Company to view its projects and hold preliminary discussions on a possible involvement with Republic. A follow-up visit has already been agreed and will take place in the New Year.

The delegation was particularly interested in the Company's gold projects in Far North Queensland and in the Burraga Copper Project. This is an excellent compliment for the Malaysian Chinese investors who have predominantly invested in the Company because of the tungsten projects.
