Metalline Mining Company's corporate office is located at 1330 E.
Margaret Avenue, Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. Metalline is a reporting
company and trades on the American Stock Exhchange under the symbol MMG.

Metalline has purchased concessions located at Sierra Mojada, Coahuila, Mexico that total 7,108 hectares (17,563 acres) and operates in Mexico through its wholly owned Mexican subsidiary, Minera Metalin S.A. de C.V.

The Sierra Mojada Property contains two mineral systems separated by the east-west trending Sierra Mojada Fault. North of the fault the mineralization is silver, copper, zinc and lead sulfide deposits. South of the fault the mineralization consists of oxide zinc deposits.

Metalline has been working on the property since 1997 and has generated a large database of drill and channel samples. Work from 1997 through 1999 was conducted on the sulfide mineralization north of the Sierra Mojada fault. When solvent extraction electrowinning of oxide zinc mineralization was developed at the Skorpion Mine in Namibia, Africa, exploration was shifted to the oxide zinc mineralization south of the fault on the Unificacion Mineros Nortenos concession.

Reserva International, an independent contractor, specializing in resource evaluation was retained to complete a block model evaluation of the oxide zinc data. The results, using a 5% cut off grade (using grades greater than 5%) and with blocks of 5 meter dimensions, estimate 17,926,988 metric tons with a grade of 8.78% zinc for the Iron Oxide Manto and 5,431,050 metric tons with a grade of 12.08% zinc for the Smithsonite Manto.

Metalline is of the opinion that mineralized material sufficient to justify a mine and solvent extraction electrowinning plant has been defined and has therefore commissioned a feasibility study on that mineralized material.

Green Team International ("GTI"), Johannesburg, S. Africa has been retained to complete a feasibility study on the oxide zinc mineralization. The feasibility study will address metallurgy, mine plan, extraction method and economic evaluation studies. If the results of the feasibility study are positive, Metalline would then seek additional financing for the required capital to implement the project.
