Grenville Receives Additional Expression of Interest

Grenville Gold Corporation ("Grenville" or "the Company"), (TSX
VENTURE:GVG)(PINK SHEETS:GVLGF)(FRANKFURT:F9I)(WKN:A0KELU) announces it has
received an additional expression of interest ("EOI") on its Silveria project.


"Grenville will carefully review any valid and cogent proposal that maximizes
shareholder value", stated Melvin Rokosh, Grenville's CFO.


On January 23, 2009, the company announced it had received an EOI on both
properties. This new EOI combined with a previously announced EOI (November 24,
2008) received by Gold Hawk Resources (TSX VENTURE:CGK) for its Peruvian
subsidiary, which owns a permitted poly-metallic silver-zinc-copper-gold mine
located 4 km away from Grenville's Silveria Project, indicates the attention
this area is receiving. In the past, Grenville's Silveria and Espanola projects
were reviewed by several majors, (April 18, 2007, May 23, 2007). On July 31,
2007, the Aluminum Corporation of China ("Chinalco") announced the completion of
its offer to acquire all the issued and outstanding common shares of Peru Copper
for cash consideration of C$6.60 per share. Chinalco now owns the billion tonne
Toromocho Copper Deposit which was Peru Copper's major asset.


The company cautions shareholders that there is no assurance that a specific
proposal will arise as a result of the expressions of interest. Negotiations
resulting from an expression of interest may or may not result in any specific
transaction and no timetable has been set for the completion of any potential
transaction. Grenville has not published any 43-101 compliant reserve or
resource calculation at this time.
