Dr. Garnett is being enlisted to conduct a site visit to the company's alluvial gold sands property in northeast Peru. The objective is to inspect the primary sites of gold mineralization in the concession areas to determine if potential exists at these locations for a large dredgeable gold resource, to review and to comment on the drilling, logging and sampling protocols currently being employed. He will review the effectiveness of drilling and shaft sinking systems presently used by the company to test the alluvial gold mineralization and to provide an overview on the relative position of the gold mineralization as it relates to a typical large scale gold alluvial system.

We look forward to maximizing the potential of this great opportunity". About Constitution Mining Corp. Our goal is to locate a commercially viable gold deposit and continuously increase the amount of gold underlying each of our outstanding shares. To build such value, we are focusing on the rapidly developing Gold Sands region of Peru, where we have optioned 382 square kilometers (147.5 square miles) of mining properties - the largest such block in the district. The Gold Sands of Peru were laid down by eons of alluvial erosion. For millions of years, the waters of the Santiago and the Maranon rivers have been carving their way through the gold-rich mountain canyons of the Andes, carrying off vast amounts of gold and depositing much of the treasure in loose gravels and sands - Gold Sands - below the Manseriche gorge in Northeastern Peru. There the rivers reach a broad flood plain, slow to a crawl and release their cargo. Historical drilling and sampling data from more than 500 test holes in the "Discovery Area" located on Constitution Mining's properties indicates the presence of significant alluvial gold in the region. We have designed programs to confirm the accuracy of this historical data with the intent of capturing the profit potential of the area by applying recently enhanced mining technologies that are especially well suited to low-density, near-surface deposits. These green-mining technologies are energy-efficient and environmentally friendly -- features that support their profitable use. The implementation of these programs will require the company to secure additional financing. For further details, please see today's current 8K filing.
