    Bellamel Mining Limited is very pleased to announce that it has
    secured the services of Challenge Drilling to undertake 50,000
    metres of Aircore and Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling during
    2008. This brings the total amount of drilling to be completed this
    year to at least 65,000 metres.
    Drilling will take place at the Company’s 100% owned Kalgoorlie
    West Gold Project and will focus on increasing the current JORC
    resource base in addition to converting resources into reserves.
    Diamond core drilling is scheduled to recommence this week after a
    short break over the Christmas period. Aircore drilling is scheduled
    to commence in February and RC drilling during April. Regular
    updates will be released as drilling progresses and results are
    received.
    Kalgoorlie West Gold Project:
    �� Past gold production of approximately 360,000 ounces,
    with last gold production in 2003.
    �� Hosts a defined JORC Code compliant measured,
    indicated and inferred resource in excess of 690,000
    ounces of gold.
    �� Considerable potential to expand on the initial resource
    base, with the Company targeting substantial resource
    upgrades in 2008.
    �� 65,000 metre drilling programme commenced in
    December 2007, with three drilling rigs contracted.
    The Company is rapidly moving forward with its objectives at
    the Kalgoorlie West Gold Project, with work programmes and
    results continuous throughout 2008.
