Hello Roman: My internet server has developed a "worm virus" and has resulted in my e-mail being sporadic at best. Here is the release:

Anvil Range Mining Corp -

Short term financing arranged to enable Faro operations to resume

Anvil Range Mining Corp
ARO
Shares issued 20500000
1997-11-19 close $1.25
Thursday Nov 20 1997
Mr Patrick Mars reports
The company has arranged for sufficient short term working capital financing from
Cominco Ltd and the Glencore Group to enable it to resume production of lead
and zinc concentrates at its Faro operations for the period from November 20
1997 to March 1998.
The financing is comprised of two parts. Cominco has advanced $5 million which
becomes callable on demand on or after March 15 1998. This loan is secured in
the same manner as the existing $15 million loan which was arranged on August 6
1997 and bears the same 8.5% interest rate. The new $5 million loan has a
maturity value of $7 million and the additional $2 million is subject to the
repayment terms of the existing loan.
The second part of the funding is pursuant to an agreement with the Glencore
Group which will become the exclusive buyer of the company's zinc and lead
concentrates for the period ending March 1998. If the mine continues in
production beyond March 1998 Glencore has an option to continue this
arrangement for the balance of the year. As part of this agreement, which may
continue for the life of the Grum mine, Glencore will buy the concentrates
immediately after production. An advance payment will be made to Anvil Range
when concentrates are delivered to the port of Skagway.
These arrangements will provide the company with its immediate working capital
needs. The company's technical consultants, Strathcona Mineral Services, are
examining possible ways to lower the company's costs and improve the
profitability of its operations. When these studies are complete, the company will
re-assess its requirements for additional permanent financing.
As no shareholder approval of the transaction is required and as it is essential that
the company have immediate access to the proceeds of the loan to continue
operations at its Faro mine, 21 days prior notice of the closing of the transaction is
not being provided as contemplated in Ontario Securities Commission Policy 9.1.
