NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES WIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE
UNITED STATES


Lincoln Mining Corporation (TSX VENTURE:LMG) ("Lincoln" or the "Company") is
pleased to announce that it has closed the previously announced private
placement.


The Company issued a total of 4,774,000 units at a price of $0.075 per unit
("Units") for total proceeds of $358,050. Each Unit is comprised of one common
share of the Company and one-half of one non-transferable common share purchase
warrant. Each whole purchase warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one
additional common share of the Company at a price of $0.10 per share until
February 17, 2013.


As compensation, qualified persons acting as finders in connection with the
private placement ("Finders") received a cash commission of up to 6% of the
proceeds raised and non-transferable warrants ("Finder's Warrants") of up to 10%
of the total number of Units sold to persons introduced to the Company by the
Finder. Each Finder's Warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one common
share of the Company at a price of $0.075 per share until February 17, 2013. At
the closing of the private placement, the Company issued a total of 394,440
Finder's Warrants and paid a total of $7,083 in cash commissions.


All securities issued or issuable under the private placement will be subject to
a four month hold period in Canada expiring on June 18, 2012, in addition to
such other restrictions as may apply under applicable securities laws of
jurisdictions outside Canada.


A director of the Company purchased 200,000 Units under the private placement,
as disclosed in the Company's material change report of even date. The Company
did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the expected
closing of the private placement as the details of the private placement and the
participation therein by related parties of the Company were not settled until
shortly prior to closing and the Company wished to close the private placement
on an expedited basis for sound business reasons.


Lincoln intends to use the proceeds raised from the private placement to advance
the work programs on its mineral projects and for general working capital and
administrative purposes.
