ABOUT QIAO XING UNIVERSAL RESOURCES INC.

Qiao Xing Universal Resources, Inc. is a leading player in the molybdenum mining industry with substantial assets in the resources industry. XING focuses on mining and processing rare metal ores and several strategically important base-metal ores, including molybdenum, copper lead and zinc. XING currently owns a 100% equity interest in Balinzuo Banner Xinyuan Mining Co., Ltd. and a 34.53% equity interest in Chifeng Aolunhua Mining Co., Ltd, as well as the right to receive 100% of the expected economic residual returns from Chifeng Haozhou Mining Co., Ltd.

XING was one of the first Chinese companies to be listed on NASDAQ (in 1999) as one of the leading players in the telecommunication-terminal product business in China. In 2007, XING made the strategic decision to diversify into the resources industry. Since then, XING has made several acquisitions in the resources industry and divested its fixed-line and budget mobile phone businesses. To reflect this change, XING changed its corporate name to Qiao Xing Universal Resources, Inc., effective January 28, 2010.

XING is well positioned to optimize the operation of its mining business as well to increase its presence in the resources industry in 2011 and beyond. XING will continue to seek opportunities to acquire future high potential mining assets. At the same time, XING is also working to divest its remaining mobile-phone business to become a pure-play resources company.
