Press Release Body = All miners know that they love to talk about everything from
politics to mining company takeovers and everything in between. These discussions
are held in crib rooms, at shift change times and even in local restaurants.

Although the topics are far reaching, the discussions usually take place between
close work mates and friends. Rarely do these miners get the opportunity to discuss
matters with miners from other regions or states.

Now, these mining topics can be discussed online with the launch of The Mining Blog.
The Mining Blog is the latest service provided by miningreference.com
(http://www.miningreference.com).

The Managing Director of miningreference.com, Calvin Close has spent almost 20 years
in the NSW coal mining industry, so he knows how miners like to discuss matters that
are relevant to their work. Mr Close said that, \"every time I went into a crib room
during lunch time, I would hear these topics discussed - often with real zeal and
emotion\".

Mr Close added, \"I knew by the way these matters were discussed, that talking about
them meant a lot to the miners, so we came up with the idea to provide a place for
these discussions to take place online.

\"Having a place online allows people from all over Australia (and the rest of the
world) to discuss just about any topic relating to the mining industry. The
discussion is not limited to a person\'s circle of friends, peers or even the local
town. We have removed barriers such as geographical location and thrown wide open
the discussions to anyone that wants to participate.\"

The Mining Blog can be accessed at http://www.theminingblog.com or from our
miningreference.com website (http://www.miningreference.com).
