TORONTO - Anaconda Mining Inc. ('Anaconda' or the 'Company') (TSX: ANX) (OTCQX: ANXGF) is pleased to announce it has expanded and further consolidated the Tilt Cove Gold Project ('Tilt Cove') located within the Baie Verte Mining District in Newfoundland, approximately 45 kilometres by quality roads from the Company's Pine Cove Mill and long-term tailings facility (Exhibit A).

The expansion includes an additional 4,175 hectares of prospective mineral property, acquired via staking and an option agreement, that covers an additional 14 kilometres of favourable geology and structure in the region. The Company now maintains a 100% interest over 35 kilometres of highly prospective strike length including the Nugget Pond Horizon that hosted the Nugget Pond Mine.

Highlights of the expanded area of the Tilt Cove Project include: A highly prospective, road accessible mineral property with 17 significant gold and copper occurrences; 190 of 1,416 Historic rock grab and float samples grading between 0.5 and 152.6 grams per tonne ('g/t') gold, including 79 rock grab and float samples grading between 5.0 and 152.6 g/t gold; Underlain by the Betts Cove Complex geology, which hosts the nearby, past producing, high-grade Nugget Pond Mine, as well as the Tilt Cove and Betts Cove Copper Mines; Adjacent to the Green Bay Fault, part of the Long-Range Fault System, a first order structure proximal and genetically linked to numerous gold deposits including the high-grade Nugget Pond and Hammerdown Mines (Exhibit B).

'We are excited to have completed such a significant expansion of the Tilt Cove Gold Project, which provides the Company with an additional 14 kilometres of continued strike length, in a highly-prospective mineral property, encompassing the same geological trend as the past producing, high-grade, Nugget Pond Mine which had an average recovered grade of 9.85 grams per tonne gold. The Tilt Cove Gold Project now includes a 35-kilometre strike extent of this highly prospective geological terrane, in addition to being adjacent to the Green Bay Fault, a crustal scale structure proximal and genetically linked to both the Nugget Pond and Hammerdown Mines. We continue to aggressively execute our exploration programs at Tilt Cove, including an initial ongoing 10,000 metre program, and we are well-funded to advance exploration work on our expanded land package and follow-up on any potential discovery.'
