           Parys Mountain Tailings Management System Work Commences 
 
Anglesey Mining plc (AIM:AYM), the UK minerals development company, is pleased 
to announce the engagement of Knight Piésold to commence both the design stage 
for the Tailings Management System at Parys Mountain and the geotechnical 
assessment of the underground development. 
 
  * The initial Tailings Scoping Study will comprise a high-level assessment 
    for the Parys Mountain Tailings Management System (TMS). 
  * Extensive pre-existing site data will be assessed including existing 
    hydrogeological, geochemical, geotechnical, geological, and mining 
    information. 
  * Following the data review and recent site visit by engineers from Knight 
    Piésold, storage methods to be considered will include filtered stacking 
    (dry stack) and conventional. 
  * The subsequent stages will include an evaluation of the preferred storage 
    method followed by a detailed Feasibility Study. 
  * On the geotechnical front, Knight Piésold has also commenced the logging of 
    the recently drilled and orientated core and analysis of the data 
    (including digitally collected acoustic televiewer information) to assist 
    with rock mass characterisation and development of a basic ground-support 
    model. 
 
Jo Battershill, Chief Executive of Anglesey Mining, commented: "Knight Piésold 
are one of the World's leading geotechnical and engineering consultants for 
tailings storage solutions and we look forward to working with them closely 
through the design and implementation process at Parys Mountain." 
 
"The commencement of the tailings storage facility design stage is a very 
important aspect of the Parys Mountain work programme and a key element of the 
overall permitting process. Building on the extensive studies and site 
monitoring from previous years, the Parys Mountain mine plan is being designed 
to optimise extraction from the underground mine but at the same time minimise 
the volume of tailings and overall visual impact. When combined with the 
highest modern standards of tailings management we expect Parys Mountain to 
have negligible adverse impact on the surrounding environment. 
 
"Equally, while the geotechnical conditions experienced in the underground 
development from 1989-91 were considered excellent, modelling of geotechnical 
domains requires updating and will feed into the next round of mine 
optimisation work to assist in maximising underground spans and potential 
extraction rates."
