Press Release Detail 5.23

Vancouver, British Columbia – January 22, 2007 – GOLDCORP INC. (GG:NYSE; G:TSX) announced today that it has received all permits required for full mine and mill construction and operation of its Peñasquito project in Zacatecas, Mexico.  Peñasquito mine is projected to be the largest mine in Mexico when full production is achieved.  Current reserves represent seventeen years of gold, silver and zinc production.

The approvals granted include the primary project MIA (Manifestación de Impacto Ambiental) and the high voltage transmission line MIA.  In addition, agreements with the municipality of Mazapil are now in place that allow for construction of the mine and routing of the transmission line feeding the project.  The Company has also received the CUS (Cambio de Uso Suelo) for the project. This authorizes a change of land use to allow mining activities on the property

Under previously granted construction permits, electric power and water are established to the site, the airstrip has been constructed, concrete foundations have been poured for the site’s medical and construction camp facilities and preparation for mill construction activities is underway.  The Company has also added construction management staff for the project.

“The earlier-than-expected receipt of construction and operating permits is a great milestone in the development of this world-class project,” said Kevin McArthur, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Combined with the anticipated second quarter start of commercial production at Los Filos mine in Guerrero State, 2007 will be an important and exciting year for our Luismin division in Mexico.  Goldcorp enjoys one of the strongest growth profiles in the industry, but what truly differentiates the Company is the amount of growth that will come from strong, politically stable jurisdictions.”

Goldcorp had planned for the completion of permitting by mid-year 2007.  The project remains on schedule for initial production from heap leaching of oxide ore by mid-year 2008 and full operation of the mill and flotation circuit by late 2009.  Proven and probable reserves currently contain 9.98 million ounces of gold, 575 million ounces of silver and 3.62 million tonnes of zinc.  Exploration drilling to expand these reserves continues, and the company expects to update reserves and resources in the second quarter of 2007.

Goldcorp is one of the world’s lowest-cost and fastest growing multi-million ounce gold producers with operations throughout the Americas.
