On  May  5th, 2010, the  European  Union  Parliament approved a resolution which
calls  on the Commission to initiate a complete ban on the use of cyanide mining
technologies in the European Union by the end of 2011.

Endomines  would like to point out  that the company has no plans to use cyanide
in  the  Pampalo  Gold  Mine  production  process  Pampalo gold is "free milling
gold",  ie. the gold exists as native gold particles and can be separated in the
concentrating   process   by  use  of  conventional  gravimetric  and  flotation
techniques.  The Pampalo Gold Mine environmental permit is based on cyanide free
processing methods.

Endomines  will proceed with the construction  of the mine and processing plant,
and remains on schedule, with a targeted test production to commence in Q4/2010,
and full-scale commercial production, in Q1/2011.

However, Endomines would also like to point out that the resolution was based on
erroneous information about the usage of cyanide in the mining industry. Cyanide
usage  in the Nordic countries is controlled by strict environmental regulations
and does not threaten the nature. The proposed ban, however, would threaten gold
exploration  and properly working  gold mines in  Nordic countries and will have
large negative economical impacts if implemented.
