China Minerals Mining Corporation ("China Minerals" or the "Company") (TSX
VENTURE:CMV)(PINKSHEETS:HWTHF) is pleased to announce that Michael Guo, Ph.D.
will oversee the Company's geological work for its Canadian operations. Mr.
Guo's 25-year professional background includes senior exploration/development
positions with two of China's largest gold mining companies as well as Canadian
positions at Cameco's Rabbit Lake Uranium operations in Saskatoon and other
relevant Canadian exploration experience.


The Company also announces the commencement of a short surface exploration
program at its Cassiar Gold project in Northern B.C. A crew of six is conducting
geological mapping, prospecting and silt-sampling over a 40 square kilometre
area in the southeast portion of the large Cassiar property. The area is
underlain by volcanic rocks which host local gold deposits and structurally
covers the southern extension of the Table Mountain Gold vein system.


Michael Guo is supervising this program while familiarizing himself with the
previously mined Taurus and Table Mountain gold deposits. Recently announced
gold resources at the Taurus Deposit, prepared in a NI 43-101 Compliant Report
by Wardrop Engineering Inc. (filed at www.sedar.com on March 11, 2009) consist
of 33.05 million tonnes at an average capped grade of 0.99 g/t Au.
