KELLOGG, IDAHO. Shareholders of Plainview Mining Co. approved a merger with New Jersey Mining Co. yesterday at a special shareholders meeting held in Kellogg, Idaho. The merger, based upon a 2 to 1 New Jersey to Plainview exchange, was approved by 59.1% of the Plainview shareholders. The merger is now mandatory for the remaining Plainview shareholders.

As part of the approved merger agreement, New Jersey Mining Co. assumed Plainview’s position on the OTC Bulletin Board. New Jersey will trade under the symbol NJMC. Plainview’s assets, including a 17.75% interest in the CAMP silver project of the Coeur d’Alene Mining District, will be transferred to New Jersey.

New Jersey is pleased to conclude the merger with Plainview which will increase the number of shareholders, and increase New Jersey’s exposure to investors familiar with the OTC Bulletin Board. The merger also gives New Jersey Mining Co. a greater emphasis on silver exploration in addition to the gold-silver resource of the New Jersey mine.
