PHI Mining Signs Agreement With Truong Son General Group to Engage in Lead and Zinc Mining in Vietnam

  PHI Mining Group,
Inc. (PINKSHEETS: PHIG), a company focused on mining opportunities in
Southeast Asia, today announced that its wholly owned subsidiary Indochina
Mining Corporation (IMC) has signed a partnership agreement with
Vietnam-based Truong Son General Group of Youth Volunteers to form Truong
Son Metal Joint Stock Company, to survey, mine and process lead and zinc
ores in Phu Ninh Commune, Yen Son District, Tuyen Quang Province, Northern
Vietnam.

According to the agreement, IMC will own 49% of Truong Son Metal stock, total registered capital for the project will be $5 million, and the mining duration will be 7 to 10 years.

The lead and zinc ores at this location are estimated to be approximately 235,000 tonnes. In addition, there are other underground ores that may extend the lifetime of this joint venture up to twenty years.

Current cash prices for lead and zinc on the London Metal Exchange are approximately $1,135/tonne and $1,235/tonne, respectively. However, management believes that when the world economy begins to recover commodity prices are expected to bounce back quickly.

Tai Vo, IMC Director, commented: "We are enthused to work with Truong Son General Group of Youth Volunteers on this project and are confident that together we will be able to create significant value for our shareholders and all the related stakeholders in the near future."
