Company Overview

Griffin Mining Limited (“Griffin” or “the Company”) is a mining and investment company, incorporated in Bermuda in 1988 whose shares were admitted to trading on the Alternative Investment Market of the London Stock Exchange (“AIM”) in 1997.

The Company has held an interest in Hebei Hua Ao since 1997 having financed, explored and managed the development of the Caijiaying Mine from the discovery of mineralisation to currently extracting and processing the annualised equivalent of 1.5 million tonnes of ore per annum to extract primarily zinc, together with gold, silver, and lead in concentrate. The Caijiaying Mine is an operating zinc, gold, silver, and lead mine, together with processing plant, camp and supporting facilities, located approximately 250 kilometres by road, north-west of Beijing in the Hebei Province of the PRC. The Caijiaying Mine is easily accessible by freeway from Beijing. The site has significant water supplies, on site solar farm together with two 35,000 volt power lines connected to the electricity grid, full connectivity to fixed and mobile telecommunications systems and broadband access for internet services The Caijiaying Mine was commissioned on time and on budget in 2005. Numerous upgrades to the Caijiaying Mine have taken place since commissioning leading to the current name plate mill throughput capacity of 1.5 million tonnes of ore per annum. Mining rates solely from Zone III have now reached the equivalent of 1.5 million tonnes of ore per annum. The development of Zone II at the Caijiaying Mine, now being undertaken, will enable current and possibly higher production rates in the future.
