CALGARY, Alberta - Alhambra Resources Ltd. ("Alhambra" or the "Corporation") announces that on November 14, 2008, the Civil Case Review Board of the East Kazakhstan Oblast Court (the "Review Board") heard, and subsequently denied, Alhambra's appeal to have the legal claim which was filed in Kazakhstan transferred to Stockholm, Sweden (see Alhambra News Releases dated October 6, 16 and 30, 2008). The legal claim filed in Kazakhstan against Alhambra seeks to invalidate the original agreement whereby Alhambra purchased Saga Creek Gold Company LLP.

On November 17, 2008, the first hearing on merits of the outstanding court claim was heard in Kazakhstan by the interdistrict economic court (the "economic court") but was subsequently adjourned to a second hearing scheduled for November 24, 2008.

Alhambra continues to disagree with the claim and is taking all possible measures to vigorously defend its position.
