FURTHER ASSAY RESULTS FROM SILVER COIN DRILLING
Stewart, BC Mountain Boy Minerals Ltd., Pinnacle Mines Ltd. and Tenajon Resources Corp. announce that further assay results have been received for the drilling on the Silver Coin project for the 2006 exploration program. These holes have intersected more high-grade gold and silver values in the Main Breccia zone of the Silver Coin property. Silver Coin is a gold-silver-base metal property located approximately 24 kilometers north of Stewart, British Columbia in the Skeena Mining Division.
During the 2006 exploration season, 24,206 meters of drilling was completed in 115 holes on the property area. Work has indicated that the Main Breccia zone is open along strike to the south and north of the current drilling.
Of the 115 holes drilled, assays have now been received for 103 holes. Assays from the remaining 12 holes are expected soon. Hole 187 had no assays greater than 1g/t Au even though the Main Breccia was intersected.

Prior to this year’s drilling program, MineFill Services of Seattle, WA completed a resource calculation on Silver Coin in compliance with CIMM (2000) Standards at geometric cut-off which indicated a total inferred resource of an estimated 500,000 ounces of gold and 2.11 million ounces of silver. The inferred resource consists of 11.3 million tonnes grading 1.60 g/t gold, 6.64 g/t silver, 0.06% Copper, 0.19% lead and 0.41% zinc. The 2006 drill program was aimed at possibly doubling or tripling this resource. MineFill is currently preparing a revised resource calculation with the results expected to be available in the first quarter of 2007.
The Silver Coin project and associated minerals claims is a 51-49% joint venture between Pinnacle Mines and Mountain Boy Minerals. The Kansas claim is the subject of an option/joint venture with Tenajon Resources Corp., pursuant to which the Pinnacle/Mountain Boy joint venture is earning a 60% interest through the expenditure of $1,000,000 on exploration over four years. The joint venture can earn a 70% interest in the Kansas claim by exercising an option to deliver a feasibility study within four years of earning the initial 60%.
E. Kruchkowski, P. Geo., is the qualified person under National Instrument 43-101 that is in charge of the exploration program on behalf of the companies. Drill core and trench samples are assayed by Assayers Canada of Vancouver, BC.
