Bishop Mill Plan of Operations Submitted
=======================================================================

Vancouver, B.C.: CMC Metals Ltd. (the "Company") is pleased to
announce it has submitted the final Bishop Mill Facility Plan of
Operations to the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) for review and
acceptance. This will allow the BLM to review the plan in parallel with
the Water Board approval process. Bishop Mill Facility Plan of
Operations includes the addition of a coarse grind Krupp screen mill
that will increase the daily capacity to 100 tons per day from the
current 50 tons per day. Total investment into the Bishop Mill exceeds
$500,000 for the initial purchase, environmental studies, engineering
design, installation of monitoring wells, and site security. Once the
Water License and Plan of Operation have been approved, construction of
the tailings pond and mill upgrades will proceed. Mill should be in
full production processing the 0.50 or greater ounce per ton gold ore
from the jointly owned Radcliff Mine before year end. The company has
sufficient ore from the Radcliff to keep the Bishop Mill facilities at
full capacity over the next three years.

The Company has received for review and comment the "Tentative" Waste
Discharge Requirements (WDR) from the Lahontan Water Board. The
tentative WDR will be used by the Board to dictate the requirements
under the Water License to be approved during the July Water Board
hearings. The Water License can be issued at that time. Due to the
facilities being a past producing facility, only six to eight weeks are
required to bring the facilities to full operation.

Executive Officer of the Company, is the Qualified Person who prepared
