GRAN COLOMBIA GOLD ANNOUNCES RESULTS OF A LEGAL ACTION DECIDED IN FAVOUR OF THE SUPERINTENDANT OF CORPORATIONS AND MINISTRY OF SOCIAL PROTECTION IN COLOMBIA

TORONTO, Jan. 21 /CNW/ - Gran Colombia Gold Corp. (TSX: GCM) announced today the results of a legal action filed with the Colombian courts against the Superintendant of Corporations (known in Colombia as the "Superintendencia de Sociedades") and the Ministry of Social Protection (known in Colombia as the "Ministerio de la Protección Social"). This legal action was filed by the union representing former employees of Frontino Gold Mines Ltd. ("FGM"), the previous owner of the Frontino assets acquired by the Company.  The action was decided on Thursday January 20, 2011 in favour of the Superintendant and the Ministry.

In October 2010, the union filed a legal action for protection (known as a "tutela") against the Superintendant and the Ministry alleging (i) their right to due process and the protection of acquired labour rights with respect to the sale of the Frontino assets; and (ii) that the completion of the administrative procedure for the sale of all of FGM's assets should have been prohibited.  The Company was not a party to the action filed by the union and as such did not participate in the hearings or the process. 

On January 20, 2011, the courts in Colombia decided in favour of the Superintenant and the Ministry and in so doing upheld the transfer of the Frontino assets by the FGM's liquidator to Zandor Capital, S.A., which is 95% owned by the Company.

Maria Consuelo Araujo, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented:  "This decision reaffirms Gran Colombia Gold's rightful ownership of the gold assets formerly known as the Frontino gold mine.  With this decision our company is poised to move forward with further development of the property."
