CWRN Cotton and Western Mining Inc (GM)

Cotton & Western Mining, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: CWRN) announced today that the Company's Baja NO. 14 site has a projected, useable iron ore reserve of just over 6.5 million Metric Tons. Cotton & Western has done geological surveys on most of their properties, and have made some of the information available on their website, www.cottonwestern.com.

Cotton & Western Mining previously estimated that it would be able to produce approximately 2.8 million dry metric tons of ore for transport to Chinese steel manufacturers. The geological samples confirm that the Baja NO. 14 site alone could sustain that production for at least two to three years.

"Now that we've been fortunate enough to establish a set price for our iron ore, we are in a great position to determine our financial projections for this year. Our geologists are confident that Baja NO. 14 is the best iron deposit of our properties, but we have several other promising magnetite deposits and we look forward to sharing more on those very soon," stated Bob Cotton, CEO of Cotton & Western Mining, Inc.

Cotton & Western Mining has recently announced that it has set an agreed base price of $45.00 FOB Mexico, per each dry metric ton sold on a guaranteed 64.5% Fe (iron content) with bonus payment of $0.6976 for each 1% Fe content above the minimum contract specifications. The average Fe content as tested in 2008 for Baja NO. 14 is 67% Fe content. CWRN fully expects to conclude the project financing package with a Chinese Steel Mill within this year. China Seaborne Trade continues to improve; however, the market remains cautious as reports on economic indicators raise expectations that the world economy is starting to recover.
