Committed to management philosophy centered on building an "Excellent Company" Chairman Kim boldly led his young venture into the construction market in the Middle East in the early 1970s. As a result, Miryung earned US$2 billion while establishing a strong foundation for Korean companies to do business in the Middle East. Miryung invested in building South Korea's business infrastructure, thereby positioning itself to play a key role in both business integration and specialization as the country's commerce expanded.As Dongbu Group entered the 21st century - some four decades after its founding - it reorganized itself into a second generation enterprise that sharpened its focus on new growth opportunities. Continuing to follow Chairman Kim's founding management philosophy, Dongbu Group remains resolute in building an "Excellent Company" that delivers high value to customers and is a great place to work.

Mines Management, Inc., founded in 1947, is a US-based mineral exploration and development company engaged in the acquisition, exploration, and development of silver-dominant mineral projects. The Company's current focus is advancement and development of the Montanore Silver-Copper Deposit, one of the largest silver-copper deposits in the world.The deposit is located in northwestern Montana, about forty miles north of the famed Silver Valley of Idaho, within one of the world’s most prolific silver districts. Mines Management acquired the Montanore deposit in 2002 when its partner and operator, Noranda Minerals of Canada, withdrew due to low metals prices at the time.A recent independent technical report confirmed the existence of a large silver-copper deposit containing approximately 116 million tons of material grading approximately 2.0 ounces of silver and 0.74% (15 pounds) of copper per ton. The deposit remains open for expansion in several directions.

Since the original Utah Copper Company began mining the low-grade copper ore in Bingham Canyon, the mine has become a huge open-pit that has produced more copper than any mine in the world, is one of the engineering marvels of the world, and is more than ¾ of a mile deep and more than 2 ¾ miles wide at the top. And it is still growing. Known as “The Richest Hole on Earth” it has yielded more than 18.1 million tons of copper metal, plus significant by-products gold, silver and molybdenum. Ore from the Mine is transported by a five-mile conveyor to the Copperton Concentrator where the rock containing about 0.6 percent copper is crushed and ground to face powder consistency before passing through a chemical flotation process where 28-percent copper concentrate is separated from molybdenite concentrate, which is packaged and sold to steel producers. Seventeen miles to the north, the state of the art Utah Copper Smelter processes the copper concentrate to produce 720-pound copper plates called anodes for use in the nearby Refinery. The copper is now 99.6 percent pure. In the Refinery, the anodes are alternated with thin stainless steel cathode blanks in horizontal tanks filled with liquid electrolyte into which an electric current creates the chemical electrolysis process. Electrolytic refining produces two, 280-pound copper cathodes from each anode during a 10-day period. Cathodes are 99.99 percent pure copper. Impurities and precious metals that settle in the bottom of the tanks, are collected and refined at the Precious Metals Plant.

Kirkland Lake Gold Inc is an operating and exploration gold mining company located in Kirkland Lake, Ontario, Canada. Kirkland Lake Gold Company has over 425 employees and 13,110 acres of four contiguous formerly producing gold mining properties, which historically produced 24 million ounces of gold.

(Please see accompanying reserve charts detailing just the SMC reserves and mine-wide reserve growth). The SMC is hosted in a new geologic setting, with gold associated with pyrite compared to the historic quartz-vein hosted systems in the gold camp. The SMC remains open in all directions and is the focus for the Company's 2010 exploration programs. Kirkland Lake's corporate goal is to expand its gold reserves and resources to five million ounces or beyond, and to increase its yearly production to a rate of 200,000 ounces per year which will reduce its unit operating costs. The Company's common shares trade on the TSX (Toronto Stock Exchange) and the AIM (Alternative Investment Market of the London Stock Exchange).Work is progressing on-track and on-time with component parts of the Phase II plan commencing ahead of schedule, though mill capacity is nominally 1,450 tons per day a modernization of the mill's control systems will be undertaken in the summer of 2010 along with other surface capital projects.The focus of Kirkland Lake Gold Company is on sustainability and future growth and directors and management are intent that the Company will build a successful mining operation in Kirkland Lake.
