About TVI
Pacific Inc. (TSX: TVI)
TVI Pacific Inc. is a
publicly traded Canadian mining company focused on exploring for and
producing precious and base metals within district scale systems in Asia.
In the Philippines,
TVI's most advanced project, the Canatuan Mine (the first
foreign-invested, new, mining project in the Philippines since the
passage of the Philippine Mining Act of 1995) began mining and milling
operations in mid-2004, producing gold and silver dor� through its
affiliate TVI Resource Development (Phils.) Ltd.
("TVIRD"). In 2006, TVIRD received a completed NI 43-101
feasibility study on the Canatuan Sulphide project prepared by Norwest
Corporation. The report has been filed with certain
securities regulatory authorities in Canada and is available at the SEDAR
website at www.sedar.com. The Norwest study
addresses the copper-zinc bearing massive sulphide zone, or lower portion
of the Canatuan Deposit. Construction of the Sulphide Project at
Canatuan is now underway. In addition, TVIRD holds a 2.5% NSR on the
Philippine-based Rapu Rapu project operated by Lafayette Mining
Ltd. Exploration in the Philippines is being conducted at Canatuan,
in an effort to expand TVIRD's mineral resource base and to find new
deposits, at Balabag and at other areas which management of TVI view as
compelling exploration properties.
In China, TVI's wholly-owned Chinese subsidiary, Hunan Pacific
Geological Exploration Inc. ("HPGEI"), was the first foreign
mining company to be granted both WOFE status and a Qualified Explorer
License. The exploration program in China is focused primarily
within the Golden Triangle area, a prospective metallogenic region in
China's south-western provinces of Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangxi Autonomous
Region and prospective areas in the Tibet Autonomous Region. HPGEI
has 2,394 sq kms of land under application in China in the Golden
Triangle and in the Tibet A.R.
TVI also has a Drilling Segment consisting of Exploration Drilling
Corporation ("EDCO"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of TVI Pacific
Inc. based in the Philippines, and Hunan Pacific Drilling
("HPD"), a segment of HPGEI based in China, which generates
revenue from contract drilling.
