Tue Nov 11, 11:01 AM

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Nov. 11, 2008) - Arehada Mining Limited (TSX: AHD.TO) today announced that it has initiated a temporary shut down of its operations at its mine and zinc plant.

Arehada China has made dramatic reductions in its operational costs and other expenditure over the last several months. However, current zinc and lead prices have made the mine and zinc plant unprofitable. Accordingly, the operations are being suspended to prevent operational losses. The Company believes that the majority of other similar mines in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region have also shut down operations due to low commodity prices.

The zinc plant and mine infrastructure are being prepared for the orderly suspension of all activities. Staff at the zinc plant and mine is being reduced to a level that will meet care and maintenance requirements.
