Specifications for the company's working schedule are provided in the
licensing agreement with the ministry of mining and resources of Senegal.
SN Mineral Mining Ltd. has already fulfilled over 55 percent of these
requirements and is, as a result, far ahead of the original schedule, which
requested the entire exploration project to be carried out in a period of
three years. Thanks to this milestone, SN Mineral Mining Ltd. was able to
place noticeable emphasis on the mining trade fair in Dakar. The company is
currently carrying out initial talks with a world-leading gold producer, in
order to decide on a joint venture to develop the explored region.

The SIM Senegal 2010 trade fair brought international attention to the
group members of West Africa Mining Holding AG, in which SN Mineral Mining
Ltd. also holds a share. With two licenses in the South-Eastern gold
district of Senegal, SN Mineral Mining Ltd. is among the most exciting and
promising exploration companies in West Africa. As the gold deposits of
South Africa have exceeded the height of their productive capacity, the
major gold producers in the world are currently expanding towards West
Africa. This part of Africa has been neglected by mining corporations for
decades but has the potential to establish itself as one of the three major
gold-producing African regions in the medium-term. SN Mineral Mining Ltd.
has positioned itself outstandingly in this region for pioneering
exploration companies.

During the exploration work, promising field and rick samples with
anomalies in terms of diamonds and coltan were also collected and analysed.
The license rights have already been modified with the relevant ministry in
order to be able to mine these resources as well.
