Wallbridge Mining Sells 683,800 of its 12.3 M shares of Duluth Metals to
Raise $1.9 million

TORONTO, Sept. 24 /CNW/ - Wallbridge Mining Company Limited (TSX:WM, FWB: WC7) (the "Company") today announced that it has completed the sale of 683,800 shares of its Duluth Metals Limited, raising $1.9 million. This new funding provides the Company with working capital to advance bulk sampling of its Broken Hammer resource in Sudbury and other corporate projects.

"Our Duluth Metals shares remain a core asset for Wallbridge, and we continue to be Duluth's largest shareholder holding 11.6 million shares or 11.3% of Duluth," stated Warren Holmes, Chairman of Wallbridge. "The Duluth shares are an important component of the underlying value in Wallbridge, however there is also considerable value to be generated by advancing our Sudbury assets. As Wallbridge was currently trading at a significant discount to the value of its Duluth shares, not to mention our significant shareholding in Miocene Metals Limited, it made financial sense to sell a small piece of our Duluth position, rather than issue Wallbridge shares at a significant discount to the value of the underlying assets."
