<p>PRESS RELEASE</p>
<p>New Jersey Mining Company Closes Private Placement </p>
<p>Kellogg, Idaho. New Jersey Mining Company (OTCBB:NJMC) recently completed a
  non-brokered private placement for net proceeds of $691,000. The Company sold
  1,727,500 units for $0.40. Each unit consists of one share of common stock plus
  one-half of a warrant with each full warrant exercisable at a price of $0.70
  until April 1, 2005.</p>
<p>Proceeds from the placement will be used to install a flotation circuit at
  the 100 tonne per day New Jersey mill, mine development at the Silver Strand
  mine, and exploration drilling at the Golden Chest mine and New Jersey mine.
  A 150 meter exploration decline at the Golden Chest will also be started this
  spring.</p>
<p>Engineering work is in progress for the flotation circuit and most equipment
  has been ordered. A pole building to house the flotation circuit is nearly complete.
  Bids from several underground mining contractors have been requested for the
  Golden Chest decline. Exploration core drilling is expected to start at the
  New Jersey mine in March at the Enterprise and Scotch Thistle prospects. After
  the completion of this drilling, the drill will move to the Golden Chest where
  a deep drilling program is planned to evaluate the underground potential for
  high grade gold veins.</p>
<p>The permitting process with the US Forest Service for the Silver Strand mine
  is still underway, and a decision document from the USFS is expected later this
  month with a 30 day public comment period commencing thereafter. A seasonal
  underground mining operation of 1,000 tonnes per month is planned for the Silver
  Strand. The goal of the plan is to explore and develop the vein at depth from
  revenue generated by mining ore. Reserve calculations from previous drilling
  and sampling indicate the ore contains 350 grams per tonne (10.2 ounces per
  ton) silver and 5.43 grams per tonne (0.16 ounces per ton) gold. </p>
<p>New Jersey Mining Company is involved in exploring for and developing gold,
  silver and base metal ore resources in the Coeur d'Alene Mining District of
  northern Idaho. The Company has a portfolio of six mineral properties in the
  Coeur d'Alene Mining District: the New Jersey mine, the Silver Strand mine,
  the Golden Chest mine, the Lost Eagle project, the CAMP project and the Wisconsin-Teddy
  project. <br>
