Pediment and Inmet Mining to Explore for
Copper-Gold Porphyries at Caborca

Pediment Exploration Ltd (PEZ-V; P5E-F) is pleased to announce it has signed an agreement with Inmet Mining that will allow Inmet to explore for copper gold porphyry deposits on Pediment’s Caborca project. The agreement allows Pediment to continue to focus on project acquisition and development of its extensive gold and silver holdings while Inmet funds work towards the discovery of porphyry mineralization at Caborca. The Lista Blanca ridge area that Pediment recently completed an initial drill program on is excluded from the agreement. Pediment will be the initial operator of the project.

Project Background
During initial exploration of the Lista Blanca ridge and the surrounding area several indicators for nearby buried porphyries were noted by Pediment’s VP Exploration, Mel Herdrick. Specifically, an area of linear hydrothermal breccia was discovered near the Lista Blanca zone which hosts copper mineralization in its matrix as well as nearby granodiorite porphyry dykes. Recon mapping revealed N60E oriented shears filled with tourmaline quartz veins, some with copper mineralization, located across the valley south of Pitiquito. These veins are within the granodiorite batholith of the region and are probably late phase. The orientation is consistent with the orientation of veins and dikes in much of the porphyry belt in Arizona. Pediment added the 14,000 ha “Pitalla 3” concession to cover areas to the east and south of Lista Blanca. On recording this concession, the Company discovered that BHP Minerals had recently staked approximately 650,000 ha from Caborca to the US border, presumably for porphyry exploration.

This summer, Pediment carried out a program of reconnaissance Induced Polarization surveys over the new concession. The surveys indicate two large chargeability anomalies under the valley floor to the east and south east of Lista Blanca ridge. Significantly, a local rancher with grazing land over the eastern anomaly reported that a well drilled in this area was unusable because the water was acidic and soured by copper. More recently, Pediment carried out first phase drilling at List Blanca ridge. Intrusive at Lista Blanca are a granodiorite series and the information obtained from the core drill holes shows that late dikes of granodiorite porphyry are intimately associated with all mineralized areas. Age of the intrusives at Ajo is about 65 million years; a similar age is assumed for the dikes found in drilling at Lista Blanca. A large breccia feature was identified, by drilling, to be a hydrothermal breccia having a direct association with the porphyry dikes within the breccia. Pediment feels these indications taken together have greatly upgraded the valley IP targets as potential copper porphyries.

The Caborca area is part of a known northwest trending porphyry belt stretching from the Fortuna de Cobre deposit south of Caborca to the Ajo deposit in southern Arizona. Ajo, 120 km northwest of Caborca, is the largest deposit in the belt at one billion tonnes grading 0.7% copper and 0.2 g/t gold. Local exposures of intrusive rock have been dated to the same Eocene period as the Cananea deposit and are analogous to those hosting the “Ajo” porphyry deposit.

The Agreement
Pediment has granted Inmet an option to earn up to 70% of the Caborca copper project in return for payments of $250,000 and exploration expenditures of $5,000,000 over four years. Inmet will complete due diligence within 60 days and, on notice, pay $50,000 and commit to $100,000 in exploration expenditures within six months. Pediment will be the initial operator for the project. Upon earning its 70% interest, a Joint Venture between Pediment and Inmet will be formed, with each party paying their pro rata share of ongoing expenses. Pediment may elect not to contribute and have its interest ultimately reduce to sliding scale copper and gold Net Smelter Return royalties. At current copper and gold prices the copper royalty would be 3% and the gold royalty 2%. The agreement is subject to regulatory approval.

Pediment and Inmet have agreed that the next stage of exploration at Caborca will be a pole-dipole IP survey that will be used to better define the reconnaissance IP targets and estimate depths of mineralization. A deposit like Ajo would have low total sulfide content with bornite and chalcopyrite as the principle copper sulfides and a surrounding pyrite zone. IP was designed to detect this type of mineralization. A moderate to strong anomaly would be expected for porphyry copper sulfide mineralization and its surrounding pyritic halo. The survey will be carried out by Durango Geophysical Operations once they have completed the IP survey now underway on Pediment’s Baja Sur project. It is expected the survey will take place in January and will be followed by a drill program of approximately $250,000 to test the refined targets, if warranted, in year one.

Gary Freeman, Pediment’s President and CEO, comments: “We’re thrilled to be working with the experienced base metal development team at Inmet. This partnership allows us to accelerate work at Caborca while maintaining a high level of activity at our gold silver projects. We consider this agreement to be an endorsement of our early stage targeting by a group that is very well acquainted with this deposit class. Hopefully, the outcome will be a discovery that greatly benefits the shareholders of both companies.

IRW-Press: PEDIMENT Exploration Ltd.: Pediment erwirbt vielversprechendes Projekt im Gold-Silber-Camp Mulatos La India
Pediment erwirbt vielversprechendes Projekt im Gold-Silber-Camp Mulatos La India

Pediment Exploration Ltd (PEZ-V; P5E-F) freut sich Ihnen mitteilen, dass Verträge zum 100 %igen Erwerb des Juliana-Projekts im Camp Mulatos La India im mexikanischen Bundesstaat Sonora unterzeichnet wurden. Die Juliana-Konzessionen umfassen etwa 700 Hektar und befinden sich zwischen den von der Grayd Resource Corp (GYD.V - Nachrichten)

. entdeckten neuen Vorkommen bei La India und der bereits produzierenden Goldmine Mulatos im Besitz der Alamos Gold (AGI.TO - Nachrichten) . Das Juliana-Gelände liegt etwa 6 km westlich der Goldmine Mulatos, bei der im Tagebau Gold durch Haufenlaugung gefördert wird.

Bisher wurden in Juliana Oberflächenproben entnommen und oberflächennahe Bohrungen durchgeführt. Die bisherigen Bohrarbeiten bei Juliana umfassten 16 kurze Schlagbohrungen und 5 Kernbohrungen in einer sich in nördlicher Richtung erstreckenden Goldmineralisierung, die als Hauptschlotverwerfung bezeichnet wird. Die aus dieser Strukturzone vor den Bohrarbeiten genommenen Oberflächenproben ergaben mehrfach mehr als 10 g Gold/Tonne. Die im Rahmen der sorgfältigen kaufmännischen Prüfung von Pediment genommenen Proben im gleichen Gebiet ergaben bei Probenlängen von 1 bis 3 m Goldgehalte von mehr als 3 g/t.

Pediment interessierte sich für das Camp aufgrund der kürzlichen Explorationserfolge von Grayd und Alamos in den stratigraphisch (statt strukturell) kontrollierten Goldzonen. Bei Goldzonen mit stratigraphischen Kontrollen besteht bei Explorationserfolg die Chance auf ein schnelles Ressourcenwachstum bis zu einer beträchtlichen Größe. Unsere geologische Prüfung der Zielgebiete bei Juliana lieferte Hinweise darauf, dass eine schichtgebundene, epithermale Goldmineralisierungszone innerhalb einer komplexen Schar paralleler Blockverwerfungen existieren könnte. Bisherige Arbeiten bei Juliana konzentrierten sich ausschließlich auf die Hauptschlotverwerfung, eine steil abtauchende Strukturzone, Pediment dagegen konzentriert sich auf schichtgebundene Mineralisierungen. Die Strukturzone bot sich als Ziel an, weil an der Oberfläche hohe Goldgehalte in Schürfproben (beispielsweise 6 m mit einem Goldgehalt von 13,0 g/t), und weit verstreut sichtbares gediegenes Gold in Goldwäscher-Claims in der Struktur der Hauptschlotverwerfung gefunden wurden.

http://www.pedimentexploration.com/i/pdf/Juliana_location.pdf

Die Goldmine Mulatos verfügt, wie bereits in dem Bericht vom dritten Quartal 2005 von Alamos Gold gemeldet wurde, über berechnet und ausgewiesene Ressourcen von 62,2 Mio. t mit einem mittleren Goldgehalt von 1,51 g/t. Alamos meldete außerdem die Entdeckung weiterer Vorkommen in der reichen Lagerstätte Escondida, die zurzeit quantifiziert werden, sowie in Victor San Carlos.

Grayd meldete kürzlich signifikante Gold-Zwischenergebnisse im Gebiet La India. In einer neuen Interpretation geht Grayd davon aus, dass die Zone, die im Prospektionsgebiet La Cruz bei La India durchschnitten wurde, eine oberflächennahe, abtauchende Schichtzone mit Hohlräumen ist, in denen gut kristallisierte Silikate aufsitzen, und nicht wie bisher angenommen eine steil abtauchende Brekzie. Eine Ressourcenberechnung hat Grayd noch nicht vorgelegt, die Bohrarbeiten im Vorkommen La India werden aber fortgesetzt. Die epithermalen Goldmineralisierungen der Mine Mulatos liegen meist auch innerhalb von Quarzandesit- und Rhyolith-Ergussgesteinen aus dem Oligozän in schichtgebundener Form vor. Alamos meldete in seinem Jahresbericht 2005, dass man mehrere Quadratkilometer stratiformer Silikatumwandlungen in den Andesitgesteinen des unteren Ergussgesteins im Konzessionsgebiet El Jaspe gefunden habe, das an die Nordseite des Juliana-Projekts grenzt. Im letzten Jahr bei El Jaspe zur Untersuchung der Umwandlungen durchgeführte Bohrungen durchschnitten große Bereiche einer verdeckten Kupfer-Gold-Mineralisierung innerhalb einer starken Schicht stratiformer, pyritischer Brekzien. Alamos wies darauf hin, dass es sich um eine neue Art Mineralisierung für dieses Camp handle und dass in diesem Jahr weitere geophysikalische Untersuchungen und Bohrungen durchgeführt werden sollen. Die Entdeckung El Jaspe liegt etwa 1 km nördlich der Grenze des Juliana-Geländes.

Die Juliana-Option schließt den vollständigen Zugang zu einer Mehrelementanalysedatenbank mit vorhandenen Informationen ein, beispielsweise mit Daten zu den fortlaufenden Bohrlochanalysen sowie mehr als 1000 Fels- und Gangproben und mehr als 1325 Bodenproben. Diese Datenbank bildet zusammen mit den zusätzlichen, von Pediment erfassten, Daten eine solide Grundlage für die Zielgebietsbestimmung und Erkundung neuer schichtgebundener Goldobjekte mit einem Potenzial von mehreren Millionen Unzen in diesem vielversprechenden Goldgebiet. Die Geologen von Pediment analysieren zurzeit die Datenbank und wollen weitere Proben und Konzessionen nehmen und beantragen. Die Gesellschaft rechnet damit, das Juliana-Projekt innerhalb der nächsten Monate schnell bis zur Bohrphase voranzubringen.

Der Vertrag zwischen der mexikanischen Tochtergesellschaft von Pediment Exploration Ltd. und drei mexikanischen Privatbesitzern erstreckt sich auf drei Konzessionen: Juliana, Juliana 1 und Juliana 2 mit einer Fläche von insgesamt 700 Hektar. Laut Vertrag ist eine Erstzahlung von 30.000 US$ vorgesehen, es folgen über 4 Jahre Zahlungen von insgesamt 800.000 US$. Der Großteil des Kaufpreises ist im vierten Jahr zu zahlen (alle Beträge in US-Dollar). Nach Abschluss der Zahlungen wird Pediment 100 % des Projekts besitzen, die Verkäufer haben Anspruch auf eine Förderabgabe von 1,0 bis 1,5 % je nach Umfang der gemäß NI 43 101 abbauwürdigen Reserven, die in dem Gelände entdeckt wurden.

Mit dem Erwerb von Juliana werden die Flächen, in denen Pediment aktiv Exploration betreibt, um ein weiteres wichtiges Goldgebiet erweitert. Neben Mulatos gehören dazu noch die Region Megashear (Daniel-Konzessionen) und Baja California Sur (Las Colinas mit nachgewiesenen Goldvorkommen, deren Bohrergebnisse erst kürzlich veröffentlicht wurden).

Die Explorationsprogramme von Pediment werden unter Leitung des Geologen Melvin Herdrick MSc. durchgeführt (zugelassener Sachverständiger im Staate Washington), der gemäß der nationalen Vorschrift 43 101 der qualifizierte Sachverständige ist, der die Inhalte dieser Pressemitteilung geprüft hat.

Pediment Exploration ist ein solide finanziertes, aggressives Explorationsunternehmen mit etwa 4 Mio. US$ Stammkapital, das sich auf die Exploration von Edelmetallen in Westmexiko konzentriert. Zurzeit verfügt die Gesellschaft über 10 ausschließlich in ihrem Besitz befindliche Projekte sowie eine Option auf ein weiteres Projekt. Pediment hat seinen Stamm an technischen Mitarbeitern und Beratern erweitert und beschleunigt die Exploration bei verschiedenen Projekten. Aus den Gräben im Daniel-Projekt wird in Kürze mit Ergebnissen gerechnet, ebenso aus den Bohrungen im Caborca-Projekt und bei dem umfassenden geochemischen Untersuchungen im Projekt Colinas Baja Sur, die mitgeteilt werden, sobald sie zur Verfügung stehen. Die Messungen mit Induktionspolarisation bei Baja Sur werden fortgesetzt, die Arbeiten an dem neuen Joint Venture zwischen Pediment und Inmet Mining (IMN.TO - Nachrichten) in der Nähe von Caborca beginnen Ende dieses Monats. Zur gleichen Zeit soll bei den Projekten Baja Sur von Pediment ein größeres Bohrprogramm beginnen.

Mr. Gary Freeman reports

PEDIMENT EXPLORATION DRILLS 12.19 M OF 19.87 G/T GOLD WITHIN 84.12 METRES OF 3.79 G/T GOLD.

After having finished the first seven drill holes of its planned 10,000-metre reverse circulation program at the Los Planes zone in the San Antonio project, Baja California Sur, Pediment Exploration Ltd. has provided its initial assay results from the program, which have significantly increased mineralized volume at the project. Results have been received from four drill holes, three of which (PLRC-01, PLRC-05 and PLRC-07) fully penetrated the known thickness of Los Planes system, which is located north of the Las Colinas historic resource. Hole PLRC-06 was stopped at 62 metres and short of intersecting its target due to difficult ground conditions. Another drill hole in this area is planned with vertical orientation.

Summarizing the combined intercepts of each drill hole received below are as follows:

   * PLRC-07 -- 84.12 metres of 3.79 grams of gold per tonne;
   * PLRC-05 -- 100.58 metres of 1.60 grams of gold per tonne (near true width);
   * PLRC-01 -- 83.82 metres of 1.47 grams of gold per tonne (near true width).

Brief description of drill results

Drill hole PLRC-07 is located 50 metres west of previously reported core hole LCDD-20 and was drilled vertically. The hole has returned 84.12 metres of 3.79 (1, 2) grams per tonne gold, which includes 12.19 metres of 19.87 grams per tonne gold. Since the mineralized zone has a calculated dip of 45 degrees to the west, the true thickness of the zone is calculated at approximately 59 metres in this section. Hole PLRC-07 is the most northerly test of the Los Planes shear system to date.

  1. This interval includes one additional sample that assayed more than 10 g/t gold by atomic absorption, and is thus here averaged with the rest of the samples as 10 g/t gold. The fire assay, gravimetric finish result for this individual sample will be reported when received.
  2. Grades were not cut for calculating average grades in the interval.

Drill hole PLRC-05 is located 100 metres south, along trend from hole PLRC-07 and between previously reported core holes LCDD-18 and LCDD-19. Hole PLRC-05 has returned 18.29 metres of 2.28 grams per tonne gold in an Upper zone and two further intersections of 15.24 metres of 2.0 grams per tonne gold and 62.48 metres of 1.357 grams per tonne gold, which include higher grade sections of 3.05 m of 7.27 g/t gold, and of 13.72 m of 4.87 g/t, respectively. In contrast with hole PLRC-07, this hole was drilled at a minus-50-degree angle to the east and the length of its intersections are near true thickness of the zone.

Drill hole PLRC-01 is located 100 metres south, from PLRC-05 and 100 metres east from Echo Bay's reverse circulation hole SA97-120. Hole PLRC-01 returned 24.38 metres of 1.20 grams per tonne gold in the Upper zone, and 59.44 metres of 1.58 grams per tonne gold in the Main zone. The Upper zone in RC-01 begins 18.3 metres down hole and is the oxidized portion of a zone that included 16.5 m of two g/t in SA97-120; the Main zone in RC-01 begins 90 metres down hole.

* Not true width. Hole was drilled vertically and mineralized zone is calculated to
dip 45 degrees to the west.

** One sample that has graded more than 10 g/t Au remains to be reassayed by gravimetric
finish. A value of 10 g/t Au has been used temporarily to calculate the interval.

Assay results for RC holes PLRC-02, 03 and 04 are pending. Sampling of the reverse circulation drill holes is done by collecting sections of 1.52 metres length and splitting each on site. A split from each sample is shipped to the ALS Chemex preparatory facility in Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico, and is then ground to a fraction to be sent to its laboratory facility where it is analyzed for gold and several other elements by induced coupled spectrometer. Gold is analyzed by fire assay with atomic absorption finish and any results over 10 g/t gold are refire assayed with gravimetric finish.

All of the reported RC holes except PLRC-07 were drilled from west to east at an angle of minus 50 degrees. In order to better penetrate the full thickness of the zone, PLRC-07 was drilled vertically. Subsequent drilling at Los Planes will continue to be mainly vertical to avoid drilling problems. The Los Planes zone trends approximately due north to south, and dips to the west at 40 degrees to 45 degrees. The northerly portion of Los Planes zone tested by Pediment is now recognized in general as an approximately 100-metre-thick shear zone within which occur higher grade sections where gold is associated with sulphide mineralization or its oxidized equivalent. The Los Planes zone remains open and untested to the north, south, and both the eastern (up dip) and western (down dip) boundaries of the system are still to be determined.

Based on limited testing by prior operators plus work to date by Pediment, the Los Planes mineralization extends for at least 600 metres of strike length. The historic Las Colinas gold deposit (340,000 ounces of gold, historical resource) is located 500 metres farther south of Los Planes, within an offset portion of the same north-south-trending San Antonio structural corridor that contains both zones.

The company has staked a 14-kilometre-long portion of the San Antonio trend extending from Las Colinas deposit northward, and will test other targets along this trend generated by its geophysical and geochemical surveys of pediment cover to the north of Los Planes. There is no history of gold exploration in this area. The San Antonio project is located adjacent to the mining town of San Antonio and 40 km southeast of the port city of La Paz that is serviced by daily vehicle and passenger ferries and by passenger aircraft. A paved road, power line and communication corridors run through the project.

Review of history and potential of the San Antonio project

The Los Planes deposit area was selected for planned drill testing based on compilation of limited prior drilling by Echo Bay, current geological investigations coupled with an IP ground geophysical survey, and more than 3,000 sample grid soil program. Echo Bay drill data from 1995 to 1997 were recently purchased from Kinross Gold Corp. covering both Las Colinas and Los Planes areas.

The Las Colinas resource mineralization was estimated by Echo Bay to be 10.599 million tons containing 348,000 ounces of gold.* Pediment recently added five more core drill holes to Las Colinas with somewhat higher grade results than the stated average for the deposit. Echo Bay did some sulphide metallurgical work on Las Colinas with favourable results through Hazen Research in Colorado.

* A qualified person, as defined by NI 43-101, has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current mineral resources, the issuer is not treating the historical estimate as current mineral resources and the historical estimate should not be relied upon.

Core drilling at Los Planes was initiated in May, 2007, completing four core drill holes. This drilling north of prior holes revealed a deeper zone of oxide mineralization with thicker intercepts than Echo Bay found. Problems in drill penetration led to changing to RVC drilling. Seven RVC drill holes have been completed, which are partially reported here, that now show a much thicker zone with higher gold grade in the shear zone.

Drill intersections at the south end begin approximately 600 metres south of RVC 7 where two intervals total 7.5 m of 1.08 grams, then 400 m south of RVC 7 with two drill holes intersected having 15 metres combined of 1.32 g/t and 16.5 combined with 1.06 g/t. All sections located farther north have higher grades, and more width in drilling by both Pediment and Echo Bay.

The company has built an exploration model assisted by various geological sources including Arizona State University structural expert Dr. Steven Reynolds and graduate student Josh Coyan, and independent consultant Stan Keith. The main low-angle shear zones are hosts to deep mesothermal gold mineralization of the "intrusion-related" type connected to peraluminous intrusions. Large zones of this type of mineralization are thought to have long trends and similar related parallel zones. Adjacent zones called Fandango, La Virgin and Colpa are concluded to have potential based on anomalous soil geochemical values, geophysical surveys, and scout drilling in the La Colpa northern area. These parallel anomalous shear zones are being investigated for gold potential, and may receive limited drill testing later this year. Drilling at San Antonio continues and results will be released on a regular basis.

Mr. Gary Freeman reports

PEDIMENT AND INMET MINING BEGIN DRILL TESTING CABORCA PORPHYRY TARGETS

Pediment Exploration Ltd. has begun a 2,000-metre, HQ-diameter, core drilling program at its Caborca project in the Sonora-Mojave Megashear mineral belt in Sonora, Mexico. The program is financed by Inmet Mining Corp., which can earn a 70-per-cent interest in the Caborca project by financing $5-million in exploration over four years. The drill program is designed to test copper-gold porphyry targets defined by induced polarization (IP) geophysical surveys, in conjunction with geological mapping and interpretation of surrounding nearby outcrops which are indicative of porphyry mineralization. Pediment has contracted Layne de Mexico to carry out the drilling program in the Caborca project.

The drill program will consist of six holes, divided between the northern (Lista Blanca) and southern (San Juan) anomalies, respectively. Both anomalies are typified by high-chargeability and low-magnetic responses, as defined by Pediment's geophysical programs and available government data.

Project background

The 14,000-hectare Caborca project is located south of the town of Caborca, which is the regional business and population centre for northwest Sonora State. Highways, electrical power and waterlines all cross through Pediment's holdings and railhead is within 10 kilometres of the concessions.

During the summer of 2006, Pediment carried out a program of reconnaissance induced polarization (RIP) at the Caborca project, which identified two large chargeability anomalies under the valley floor to the east and southeast of Lista Blanca ridge. During the summer of 2007, Inmet financed two follow-up dipole-dipole IP surveys totalling 40 line kilometres conducted by Gradient Geophysics of Missoula, Mont. These programs were designed to further define the RIP anomalies and were recently completed with encouraging results. The dipole-dipole surveys confirmed the earlier RIP anomalies, indicating several large areas of high chargeability/low resistivity, characteristic of buried porphyry mineralization. Pediment and Inmet have received initial interpretations from gradient and will add this information to Pediment's website once the final report is received.

The targets are located in a broad pediment-covered valley. Pediment investigated the area after the discovery that surrounding outcropping areas contained quartz-tourmaline copper veins and Pediment drilling at Lista Blanca ridge (see Pediment's news release, as reported in Stockwatch on Oct. 18, 2006) indicated the Lista Blanca copper-gold occurrences were hosted by a large hydrothermal breccia or elongated "breccia pipe." Quartz-tourmaline veins and large hydrothermal breccia zones are commonly found proximal to known copper-gold porphyry systems. Pediment's vice-president of exploration, Mel Herdrick, noted: "These are large anomalies and it will require a number of holes to properly investigate them. Nonetheless, there is clear potential for the project to host one or more substantial copper-gold porphyry bodies. We're gratified that our partner, Inmet Mining, concurs with our interpretation and is prepared to aggressively test it."

Drilling at Caborca will continue for the next several weeks and results will be reported once they have been received, compiled and interpreted by Pediment and Inmet.

Agreement with Inmet Mining Corp.

Pediment has an agreement with Inmet Mining Corp. to explore the Caborca project in which Pediment is the initial operator. The agreement grants Inmet an option to earn up to 70-per-cent of the Caborca copper project in return for payments of $250,000 and exploration expenditures of $5-million over four years. Upon earning its 70-per-cent interest, a joint venture between Pediment and Inmet will be formed, with each party paying their pro rata share of continuing expenses. Pediment may elect not to contribute and have its interest ultimately reduce to sliding-scale copper and gold net smelter return royalties. At current copper and gold prices, the copper royalty would be 3 per cent and the gold royalty 2 per cent. The agreement with Inmet allows Pediment to continue to focus on project acquisition and development of its extensive gold and silver holdings while Inmet finances work toward the discovery of porphyry mineralization at Caborca. The agreement excludes the adjacent 100-per-cent-owned Lista Blanca zone which was drilled by Pediment last year.

Pediment Exploration Creates Advisory Board.
Pediment Exploration Ltd (PEZ-V, P5E-Frankfurt) is pleased to announce that it has created a new Advisory Board and that three of the most successful explorers/developers in Mexico and South America have consented to act as founding members. Allen Ambrose, Mark Bailey and Dr. Peter Megaw have agreed to serve as advisors to Pediment Exploration on a broad range of technical and financial matters.

Allen Ambrose in a founding director and President of Minera Andes Inc (MAI-T), which recently started production with JV partner Minera Hochschild at its San Jose gold-silver mine in Argentina. Mr. Ambrose has extensive experience in all phases of exploration, project evaluation and project management, and has worked as a geologic consultant in the U.S., Venezuela and Argentina. As a consultant, he was a co-discoverer of a Venezuelan auriferous massive sulphide deposit acquired by Gold Reserve Corporation, and known generally as the Brisas deposit. He holds a B.Sc. degree in Geology from Eastern Washington University.

Mark Bailey is a director, President and CEO of Minefinders Corporation Ltd. (MFL-T, MFN-Amex) which is starting production at its 100% owned 18,000 tonne per day Dolores open-pit gold/silver mine in Chihuahua, Mexico. Mr. Bailey, a registered Professional Geologist, has Master of Science and Bachelor of Science degrees in geology from Oregon State University and the University of Washington respectively, and has had a very successful 31 year career in exploration, development and management positions in the mining industry. His exploration expertise includes work throughout North America, Latin America and overseas.

Dr. Peter Megaw, C.P.G., has a Ph.D. in geology from the University of Arizona and more than 27 years of relevant experience focused on silver and gold exploration in Mexico. He is a certified Professional Geologist by the American Institute of Professional Geologists and an Arizona Registered Geologist. Dr. Megaw has been instrumental in a number of mineral discoveries in Mexico including new ore bodies at existing mines, Excellon Resources' Platosa Mine, and MAG Silver's Juanicipio, Batopilas and Santa Eulalia Properties. Dr. Megaw is a founding director of both MAG Silver (MAG-T, MVG-Amex) and Excellon Resources (EXN-V).

Pediment's President, Gary Freeman, commented that "we are very pleased that we were able to attract three individuals of such high calibre to Pediment's advisory board. All three of these gentlemen have had direct involvement with important mineral discoveries in Mexico and South America. Three of these discoveries are now in production. Allen, Mark and Peter all took projects they believed in and saw them through to production, persevering through a very difficult market early this decade. The experience they gained will be a valuable asset to Pediment and all its stakeholders. As we work to develop the San Antonio, La Colorada and other projects and move them towards the ultimate goal of production I'm sure we will all benefit from the counsel of advisors who have travelled the road to production before us."



Pediment Exploration Ltd. is an aggressive well-financed explorer focused on north western Mexico. Pediment has ten 100% owned and one optioned project, over $9 million in working capital and has exploration in progress on several of its properties.
