Zinco Mining Corporation (TSX VENTURE:ZIM) (FRANKFURT:61Z) is pleased to
announce that it has signed a 1500 meter drill contract with Major Drilling de
Mexico S.A. de C.V. to commence diamond core drilling on its mineral prospects
in the Cuale volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) camp. The main objective of the
program is to expand on significant reverse circulation drilling intercepts from
two prospects, San Juan and Jesus Maria. From San Juan, Zinco's previous
intercepts include: 




I.   ZIM9 with 85.7 meters of 185 g/t Ag, 1.5% Zn and 0.8% Pb, 
II.  ZIM3, collared 41 m east-northeast of ZIM9, with 108.1 meters of 58 g/t
     Ag, 1.4% Zn and 0.7% Pb. 
III. ZIM1, collared 135 m north-northeast of ZIM9, with 14.3 meters of 127
     g/t Ag, 2.9% Zn and 0.9% Pb.  
IV.  ZIM5, collared 215 m north-northeast of ZIM9, with 25.5 meters of 72
     g/t Ag, 0.4% Zn and 0.2% Pb.  



From Jesus Maria, the 2008 campaign returned results of:



I.   ZIM30 with 41.82 meters of 5% Zn, 1.4% Pb, 0.2% Cu and 14 g/t Ag, 
II.  ZIM19, collared 170 meters southwest of ZIM30, with 17.34 meters of
     4.2% Zn, 1.6% Pb, 0.1% Cu and 5 g/t Ag, 
III. ZIM16, collared 40 meters southwest of ZIM30, with 17.34 meters of 4.9%
     Zn, 0.1% Pb, 0.2% Cu and 5 g/t Ag.  



Plan maps and cross-sections of these results are on Zinco's website at
http://www.zincomining.com/s/Mineralization.asp.


The two areas of interest are characterized by multiple intersections of
VMS-style mineralization and have grades of economic interest, with zinc and
silver dominating the polymetallic assemblage. Diamond drilling is being
initiated at both sites to test for physical continuity of the mineralization
identified by the earlier reverse circulation drilling program. The company has
been active in camp preparation and drill pad preparation in anticipation of
diamond drilling commencing in the near future.
