SILVERADO - OTCBB: SLGLF / Frankfurt : SLGL

March 19, 2008, (Vancouver, Canada) Silverado Gold Mines Ltd (Trading Symbols, OTC BB - SLGLF, FRANKFURT - SLGL), and its wholly owned subsidiary, Silverado Green Fuel Inc., is pleased with the progress on its newly launched China investor attraction beta test initiative.

The launch of Silverado's new China language corporate website (www.silverado.hk) has started to receive some attention from China, Hong Kong, Singapore and Macao based stock market brokers, investment dealers and financial institutions.

Silverado's China initiative contractor, Synergy Management Group Ltd. (www.synergy1.ca), reports that the campaign includes advertising in China's leading investment and securities newspaper, and building awareness about Silverado, and the company's Chinese website. Even more importantly, Synergy's China-based associates are involved in presentations to, and meetings with personal contacts within the investment / investor community. This personal networking, called 'guanxi', is the basis for succeeding in China. 'Guanxi' is the cornerstone of Silverado's China test program to attract a new base of Asia-based stock market players, known for their interest in highly liquid and affordably priced, undervalued microcap stocks.

"Silverado recognizes that this China initiative is a process, and we are prepared to allow it to develop and take hold, as the program unfolds", stated Garry L. Anselmo, President and CEO of Silverado, and added, "We are pleased with the progress, and will look for some solid payback in the near future."

Silverado Opens Second China Investor Attraction Front

The North American-based Chinese investor community is a vibrant, proactive group. The Chinese-speaking population of North America represents approximately 5 million people.
