Vancouver, February 9, 2012 -- First Point Minerals Corp. (FPX-TSX.V)
("First Point" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has
received conditional approval for its common shares to be listed on the

First Point's common shares will commence trading on the TSX, once

"First Point's graduation to the TSX is a testament to the significance
