The Board of Directors of Sentry Select Primary Metals Corp. (the Corporation")
(TSX:PME)(TSX:PME.WT) is pleased to announce that at a special meeting held
today, shareholders of the Corporation approved the mandatory market purchase
program (the "Program").


Mandatory market purchase program

Under the Program, the Corporation is obligated to purchase any shares offered
in the market at the prevailing market price, if shares are offered at prices
that are less than 95% of the latest determined net asset value ("NAV") per
share. The purchases are subject to a maximum amount in any three-month period
of 1.25% of the number of shares outstanding at the beginning of such period.


The manager believes that the Program will be effective in decreasing potential
spread between the NAV per share and the market price of the shares and will
enhance the liquidity of the shares. Purchases of shares for cancellation at
less than NAV per share should also have the effect of increasing the NAV per
share.
