Black Hawk Mining Inc. Announces Recovery Of Gold Shipment

Symbol: BHK
Toronto, Ontario

BLACK HAWK MINING INC. (TSE-BHK) is pleased to announce that on
Saturday December 11, it recovered the gold shipment which had
been seized by the Town of Lynn Lake on December 6.

As previously announced (see Black Hawk's News Release of Dec. 7)
the Town of Lynn Lake seized approximately 2,400 ounces of gold
produced at the Keystone Gold Mine in northern Manitoba. The gold
was seized as a result of claims over municipal taxes. Black Hawk
has been paying fees specified under a long-standing Townsite
Agreement and remains of the view that it is not subject to
further taxes and is not in arrears.

On Friday Dec. 10 the Company and the Town agreed to an
arrangement whereby the Town would immediately release the gold

to Black Hawk and agreed not to seize any further Company assets
in respect of its claims until those claims have been finally
resolved by agreement or an order of the Court. In accordance
with the agreed conditions, the Town delivered up possession of
the seized gold bullion on December 11.

Black Hawk Mining Inc. is a Toronto-based natural resource
company engaged in mining, exploration and development of mineral
resource properties in North, Central, and South America.
