Update on Installation of Processing Plant-Mato Grosso, Brazil Paramax Resources Ltd. (Paramax) and Paramount Ventures and Finance Inc. (Paramount) are pleased to provide the following update on the 10,000 hectare joint interest mineral claim located in the State of Mato Grosso, Brazil. As reported in an earlier press release, the initial bulk test results of the alluvial gravels have been extremely encouraging. The average diamond recovery is 0.5 carats per cubic meter with an average stone size of 0.41 carats. The local price for stones less than 1 carat is US $140 per carat. The gravels are found throughout the mineral claim block in layers of 0.5 to 1.5 meters thick. The gravel horizon is covered by a sand over burden approximately 2 to 3 meters thick. Installation of the central processing plant to process the diamond bearing gravels on a commercial basis is ahead of schedule. It is anticipated that the plant will be ready for performance testing within ten days and be in commercial operation by December 31. Initial processing capacity is planned to be in excess of 100 cubic meters of gravel per day. Additional increases in processing are scheduled for the first quarter of 2000. Paramount owns approximately 55% of Paramax?s outstanding shares. Paul T.
