China Minerals Mining Corporation announced an upcoming $3 million exploration program that is planned for its Cassiar area properties, which will be implemented by Equity Exploration Consultants Ltd. The exploration budget is planned to be divided evenly between the Taurus and Table Mountain properties, both of which contain resources prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101") in the categories summarized below. The current program budget has utilized conservative cost estimates and may be expandable beyond the 10,000 metres of drilling that is suggested here. The Cassiar Gold project is 100% owned by the Company through a subsidiary, and comprises the Taurus gold deposit, the Table Mountain gold mine, and nearly 60,000 hectares of contiguous prospective exploration properties. Cassiar encompasses an entire, easily road accessible orogenic gold district in northern British Columbia which has classic greenstone belt geology, numerous exploration targets and open areas of mineralization in known zones. Exploration is planned to comprise at least 10,000 metres of drilling at several target areas, as well as ongoing target evaluation through re-evaluation of historical drill core, outcrops, and previous geophysical and geochemical data. Taurus Property: The Taurus property comprises northern portions of the Cassiar district and contains the Taurus gold deposit ("Taurus"). Taurus hosts an inferred resource of 1.06 million ounces of gold comprising of 33.1 million tonnes at an average capped grade of 0.99 g/t Au using a cut-off grade of 0.50 g/t Au. Taurus was explored by previous operators with the objective of identifying potential for a combination large tonnage open pit, and high grade underground mine. Taurus also includes several additional targets identified as high priority for further evaluation and follow-up drilling. Table Mountain Property: The Table Mountain property contains the Main (formerly Erickson), Bain and Cusac gold mines which are past producing underground high grade mines in southern parts of the Cassiar district which historically have produced approximately 315,000 ounces of gold. Exploration in 2012 at Table Mountain is planned to further test the known resource areas through a combination of infill drilling in areas of inferred resources, and testing for extensions and parallel adjacent veins that have been intersected by isolated previous drilling intercepts. Exploration is planned to commence on site in early June, 2012 and utilize at least two drill rigs. Underground drilling on the Table Mountain project and the potential for use of reverse circulation drilling for some of the Taurus infill drilling to increase overall meters drilled at lower cost are being considered. Further updates on the planning for the exploration and development of the Table Mountain Gold Mine and the Taurus Gold Project will be announced as information is made available.
