    SHORT TERM LOAN FROM CYRUS CAPITAL PARTNERS LP
    TO PROVIDE INTERIM FUNDING OF SECURITY BOND TO SUPPORT ISSUE OF MINING LICENCE FOR THE BLACK ANGEL MINE IN GREENLAND




    A&R announces that it is borrowing $1,650,000 from Cyrus Capital Partners LP (Cyrus).  The loan, which is repayable in three months,
will bear interest at 14% per annum and is subject to an arrangement fee of $150,000.

    Cyrus holds 37.5 million warrants at an exercise price of 20p, with an expiry date of 10th July 2010 and is therefore considered to be a
related party.

    The money will be held in escrow in a deposit account as security for the mine closure bond, which has to be in place before the mining
licence can be issued.

    Having consulted with the Company's Nominated Adviser, the directors consider that the terms of the transaction are fair and reasonable
insofar as shareholders are concerned.
