IAMGOLD / IMG, IAG (TSX, NYSE)

TORONTO, ONTARIO, Nov 15, 2007 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) -- IAMGOLD Corporation ("IAMGOLD" or "the Company")(TSX: IMG) (IAG: iamgold corp com) (BOTSWANA: IAMGOLD) announces that it has reached an agreement with the Government of Ecuador in which the Government recognizes that IAMGOLD has adhered to and met all of its legal, social and environmental obligations thus far at the Company's Quimsacocha project in Ecuador and will therefore get full support from the Government for the project going forward. As part of the agreement and as a show of environmental commitment, the Company has agreed to relinquish a portion of its concession to ensure the safety of the water supply to the surrounding areas. This land package is approximately 3,000 hectares, 23% of IAMGOLD's total 12,967 hectare holding and contains no resources, no mineralization or exploration targets. (See figure 1). It will have no impact on the development of the Quimsacocha project.
"Giving back the small portion of our concessions was done to send a clear message - IAMGOLD is committed to preserve and protect the environment. The land in question surrounds a water shed, some small lakes and a wetland. It was the right thing to do," stated Joseph Conway, President and CEO. "The land contains no prospects and will in no way affect the eventual operation there. Now we can move ahead and help to formulate a mining code that will be beneficial for all stakeholders. We look forward to working closely with the Government and appreciate their support of Quimsacocha."
The Quimsacocha project is located in the Azuay Province, 35 kilometres southwest of Cuenca in southern Ecuador. This development project contains an indicated resource of 32.6 million tonnes with 3.2 g/t gold, representing 3.35 million ounces of gold. There are currently two drill rigs on site drilling at Loma Tasqui, southwest of the known resource. It is expected that 8,000 metres will be drilled on Loma Tasqui and Rio Falso Sur as part of the $2.7 million second half 2007 exploration program. Work also continues on the prefeasibility study which will be completed in the first quarter of 2008.

MONTREAL, QUEBEC, Nov 15, 2007 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) -- Matamec Explorations Inc. ("Matamec") (CA:MAT) is pleased to announce that Superior Diamonds Inc. ("Superior") recently announced the discovery of several kimberlite boulders on the L'Esperance property, of which 10,283 of 13,399 hectares is optioned from Matamec and IAMGOLD Corporation. Superior also plans a third drilling campaign during the first half of 2008 (see Superior's press release as of November 13th, 2007).
These boulders are large and angular, weighing between 70 and 360 kilograms, indicating proximity to source. The boulders are scattered over a distance of approximately 650 metres in an area where kimberlite indicator minerals with geochemistry usually indicative of potentially diamondiferous kimberlite were recovered from overburden.
A representative sample of these blocks was submitted to Overburden Drilling Management Limited (ODM) which described the material as being hypabyssal kimberlite. By their size and their angular shape, these blocks probably originate directly on top or less than a few hundreds metres down-ice from the source.
The geological data in this press release was prepared by Aline Leclerc, geologist, Matamec's Vice-President Exploration and a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101.
Matamec also announces that exploration work is in progress on the Montclerg, Tansim, Vulcain and Zeus properties. The results of these activities will be announced as soon as they are available.
Furthermore, Matamec is pleased to announce the exercise of 1,000,000 warrants expiring on December 9th, 2007, for net proceeds of $130,000 which will be used for working capital purposes.

TORONTO, ONTARIO, Dec 05, 2007 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) -- IAMGOLD Corporation ("IAMGOLD" or "the Company") (CA:IMG) (IAG:
iamgold corp com) (BOTSWANA: IAMGOLD) is pleased to announce results from 5 drill holes of the ongoing drill program at the Westwood project, an advanced stage exploration project located within the Company's Doyon mine property in the Abitibi region of Northern Quebec.
These results include intercepts of the Zone 2 extension at a vertical depth of approximately 2.3 kilometers in hole R14281B-07, which is 800 metres deeper than mineralization previously intersected. This hole was specifically planned to test the depth potential and includes 10.0 metres averaging 11.5 grams per tonne (g/t) gold and 5.0 metres averaging 23.0 g/t gold. These results are significant given the depth of the known 3.3 million ounce resource previously delimited which is less than 1.5 kilometres.
The first hole east of the Bousquet Fault, hole R14404-07 also intercepted the Zone 2, a 3.0 metre intercept averaging 10.2 g/t gold and narrow massive sulphide mineralization, a 2.0 metre intercept of 3.6 g/t gold, 5.0% zinc, within the Westwood horizon.
These higher grade intercepts and intercepts at depth may have significant impact on the strike length and have potential to substantially increase the total Westwood resource.
"These results are some of the best to date on the Westwood project. With the increasing gold grades at this depth we are very encouraged that Westwood could become a world class deposit," commented Joseph Conway, President & CEO. "The acceleration of this project in 2007 will continue in 2008 and the results to date continue to confirm that Westwood will be IAMGOLD's future in Northern Quebec."

TORONTO, ONTARIO, Jan 31, 2008 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) -- IAMGOLD Corporation (CA:IMG) (IAG: iamgold corp com) (BOTSWANA: IAMGOLD) ("IAMGOLD" or "the Company") reports that the French Government through a declaration issued on behalf of the President's Office has advised that the President will not approve the final permits necessary to commence construction of the Camp Caiman project located in French Guiana. No technical, environmental or legal reasoning for the decision was provided in the declaration. The Company will be seeking further information from the relevant authorities in order to determine next steps.
Camp Caiman is a development project hosting approximately 1.1 million ounces of gold. Throughout the permitting process, the Company has fulfilled all legal, technical and environmental obligations required; including full and open public hearings and consultations. The project received a positive response from the relevant authorities, as well as a positive recommendation from the CODERST, a government appointed committee designed to review such projects.
"The Camp Caiman project exemplified the highest standards of environmental protection and innovation, based on an extensive application and public hearing process dating back to 2005" stated Joseph Conway, President & CEO, "We firmly believe that the Camp Caiman project could be a catalyst for the economic development of the French Guiana region as well as a model for socially and environmentally responsible mining in France. IAMGOLD has committed significant resources to the Camp Caiman project and we will be considering all of our options for protecting and advancing those interests going forward."

TORONTO, ONTARIO, Feb 06, 2008 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) -- IAMGOLD Corporation ("IAMGOLD" or "the Company")(TSX: IMG) (IAG: iamgold corp com) (BOTSWANA: IAMGOLD) announces the Board of Directors' approval of an $18.4 million investment for an expansion of the Rosebel Mill. The expansion allows for an increase in the annual life of mine production from approximately 275,000 ounces per year to 300,000 to 305,000 ounces per year and a reduction in direct cash costs of approximately $35 per ounce. This increases the mill throughput from 8 million tonnes per year of ore to 8.9 million tonnes per year while adding sufficient operational flexibility to increase throughput by a further 15% to 25% should mine site and economic conditions support the use of the excess capacity.
The mill expansion eliminates the need for stockpiles, and through the installation of extra leach tanks to increase residence time, will boost metallurgical recovery from 94% to 95%.
"This program will continue to improve production from Rosebel and bring down cash costs at the operation, resulting in a reduction of our overall cash costs," stated Joseph Conway, President & CEO. "Rosebel is our largest and most significant operation and there is considerable value yet to be realized there. We continue to evaluate and initiate programs to expand the margins, convert existing resources and discover more ounces."
The $26 million Rosebel Mill optimization, announced in July 2007, will be completed in November of this year. This optimization enables production rates to be maintained as more hard rock is fed into the mill. In 2008, $15 million remains to be spent on the optimization. The $18.4 million investment is planned for 2008, with results having an impact on production and costs beginning in 2009.
Concurrent with mill expansion is the redesign of the existing mine plan which eliminates marginal ore and reduces the life of mine strip ratio from 4 to 3.5 while maintaining the mine reserve grade at 1.2 grams/tonne. The impact of the lower strip ratio and the reduction of marginal material in the mine plan will reduce the current mine life by one year but the significant increase in profitability offsets the potential loss of production.
The Company is also spending $9.8 million in exploration and development which includes 26,000 meters of infill drilling for reserves development and resource conversion and 35,000 meters to delineate additional resources on known targets. The focus of this program is to increase overall mine grade and grow resources.
Further mine engineering work is also ongoing for an expansion in mine production capacity through an increase in the size of the mining fleet.

TORONTO, ONTARIO, Feb 12, 2008 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) -- IAMGOLD Corporation ("IAMGOLD" or "the Company") (CA:IMG) (IAG: IAG) (BOTSWANA: IAMGOLD) will release year end financial results before the market opens on Friday, March 28, 2008.

MONTREAL, QUEBEC, Feb 19, 2008 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) -- Cadiscor Resources Inc. (CA:CAO) (FRANKFURT: DQN) ("Cadiscor") is pleased to announce the first results from underground exploration drilling at the Sleeping Giant Mine, ("Mine") on which it has an option to acquire a 100% interest from IAMGOLD Corporation ("IAMGOLD"). In December 2007, Cadiscor started a 9,000-meter underground exploration program to test the continuity of the gold zones at depth, below the deepest mining level (-975 meters).
These results are highly significant as they confirm the presence of the gold zones down to 445 meters below the current mine workings, with grades that are similar to the grades in the mine. Drilling will continue until the end of Q2 2008. The results will then be evaluated to consider the feasibility of extending the mine shaft.
The Sleeping Giant Mine entered production in 1988. The mine has since been deepened twice to follow the gold zones. The main mine production zones are, in order of importance, Zones #30, 8, 20, 3 and 18. Three underground drill rigs are testing the next 400 meters of Zones #8, 30 and 18 below the deepest mining level.
The mine's gold zones are narrow quartz veins that are mainly mined by shrinkage stoping. Typically, mine planning uses a minimum width of 1.6 orthogonal meters. Results from the immediate extension of the mined zones or areas where geological control is sufficient to determine the gold zone attitude with confidence, are reported using this minimum 1.6 orthogonal meters width. Results from areas where the gold zone attitude can not be determined with confidence are reported using the core length.
