Crystallex Reports Q1 2009 Financial Results

TORONTO, ONTARIO, May 15, 2009 – Crystallex International Corporation (TSX: KRY) ( NYSE Amex : KRY) today reported its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2009. The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in U.S. dollars and in accordance with Canadian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The consolidated financial statements along with management’s discussion and analysis will be available for viewing on the Crystallex International Corporation website at www.crystallex.com . The Documents have been filed with SEDAR ( www.sedar.com ).

Overview

Crystallex is a Canadian based mining company engaged in the development of gold properties in Venezuela. Its common shares (symbol: KRY) are traded on both the Toronto Stock Exchange and the NYSE Amex.

Las Cristinas

The Company’s principal asset is its interest in the Las Cristinas gold project located in Bolivar State, Venezuela. The Company’s interests in the Las Cristinas concessions are derived from a Mine Operating Contract (the “MOC”) with the Corporacion Venezolana de Guayana (the “CVG”) which grants Crystallex exclusive rights to develop and mine the gold deposits on the Las Cristinas property.

The Company has not received a response from the Minister of Environment and Natural Resources (“MinAmb”) to its June 16, 2008 appeal of the Director General of the Administrative Office of Permits at MinAmb denying its request for the Permit for the Las Cristinas project.

On March 2, 2009, the CVG confirmed that the Company was in compliance with the MOC. This corroborates the Company’s position that it is not in default of the MOC and there is no change in control under the terms of the MOC.

The Company plans to remain compliant with the MOC in order to protect the option of proceeding to arbitration, if necessary.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2009 were $21.6 million.

The Company forecasts that it will have sufficient cash to fund its operations through the end of 2009 (see “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section).

Financial Results

Losses from continuing operations were $4.8 million ($(0.02) per share) and $13.4 million ($(0.05) per share) for the three month periods ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Losses from operations were $5.2 million ($(0.02) per share) and $11.2 million ($(0.04) per share) for the three month periods ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Legal Matters

On May 4, 2009, the holders of the Company’s $100 million notes due December, 2011, agreed to have its derivative action dismissed with prejudice. The Noteholders’ Application to the court also included an oppression claim, which has been held in abeyance until the end of July, 2009, at which time the Noteholders and the Company will appear before the court to set a schedule for the continuation of the Application.

The Company and certain officers and/or directors have been named as defendants in a proposed class action lawsuit commenced in the United States. This action is in its preliminary stage, however, Crystallex believes that the complaint is without merit and will vigorously defend itself against this action.
