Miramar Completes Financing for $15 Million

- Continued Funding for Expanded work at new BN Zone and other Programs at Hope Bay in 2007-

VANCOUVER -- Miramar Mining Corporation (MAE-TSE) today announced completion of the previously announced equity financing. Through a syndicate of Canadian investment dealers, Miramar has completed the sale of 2,040,820 flow-through common shares at $7.35 per share to raise gross proceeds of $15,000,027.

“Work at the newly identified BN Zone at the Boston deposit will continue to focus on potentially identifying either a supplementary underground development area or a larger production centre which may be amenable to open pit exploitation,” said Tony Walsh, Miramar’s President and CEO. “The proceeds from this financing will allow us an expanded work program at the BN Zone along with generating and testing of priority targets on Miramar’s extensive land holdings, without depleting our other non-exploration allocated cash in 2007.”

The BN Zone is located approximately 400m to the north of the current Boston resource and is a style of mineralization not previously recognized at the Boston Deposit. Results from the BN Zone were discussed in the Miramar news release of November 15, 2006.

In consideration for their services, the Company paid a cash commission of four percent of the gross proceeds raised under the offering.

The gross proceeds of the sale of the flow-through shares will be used to incur Canadian Exploration Expenditures on the Company’s projects in Nunavut by December 31, 2007.

The securities have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the securities laws of any state, and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to U.S. persons as defined in Regulation S under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
