EURO WINS ARBITRATION AGAINST IAMGOLD

PARIS, France, November 27, 2008: EURO Ressources S.A. (TSX: EUR; Euronext of the Bourse de Paris: EUR) reports that the arbitrator has rendered a decision in the arbitration for EURO and against IAMGOLD Corporation, arising from IAMGOLD's decision to deduct certain "Excess Royalty" amounts from the Rosebel Royalty payments. The decision at this time deals with the almost $1 million deducted by IAMGOLD which must now be paid.

James H. Dunnett, Directeur-Général of EURO said: "EURO is pleased by the favourable result of the arbitration. Management has always considered that IAMGOLD's actions were without any basis under the Rosebel Royalty Participation Right Agreement. The arbitrator has found entirely for EURO."

The results of this award will not impact the financial results of EURO since the full amount of the deductions has been included in income at the time such amounts were due.
