ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON INTERNATIONAL CONSOLIDATED MINERALS Inc.
International Consolidated Minerals Inc (AIM: ICMI) was formed in 2005 to pursue mineral exploration, development and production with
its initial attention in Latin America. ICMI's strategy is to focus on high-quality mining assets at an advanced stage of development. In
early 2006, ICMI acquired the Pachapaqui mining property in central Peru which contains appreciable high grade zinc, lead, copper, silver
and gold mineral reserves and resources. The property consists of 32 mining concessions of 2,105 hectares and one beneficiation concession
of 65 hectares on which is located mining infrastructure and equipment, hydro-electrical generating stations, offices and accommodations,
and concentrating plant facilities. In 2007, while conducting upgrades of the facilities, ICMI embarked on a drilling and exploration
geology programme, initially in one area on the Pachapaqui property, from which the Company has had tremendous success and is confident of
proving up significant additional mineral reserves and resources. The Company intends to bring the Pachapaqui Mine into production in 2009. Further information is available from the Company's
