Encouraging Iron (Fe) and Manganese (Mn) Rock Chip Samples in North Pole Region
(E45/2532 – pending) near Haoma’s Normay Mine
Haoma Mining NL (ASX: HAO) is pleased to announce encouraging results from rock chip
sampling within the North Pole Region of the Pilbara at its North Pole Project (100% Haoma
Mining NL), located 150 km south east of Port Hedland (See Figures 1 & 2).
In late November, 2007 reconnaissance rock chip samples were taken over an extensive outcrop of
andesitic pillow basalt in Tenement E45/2532. The samples have returned encouraging Iron and
Manganese results with maximum values of 46.1% Manganese, 54.8% Iron and 1,150 ppm
Vanadium (See Table 1).
Haoma Mining NL holds 10 Mining Leases and 1 Exploration Lease (pending) within the North
Pole Region of the Pilbara, covering approximately 276 km2. Tenement E45/2532, from which the
samples were taken, has in the past had limited exposure to modern exploration techniques.

1 The above table of exploration assay results was prepared on December 27, 2007 by Ms Sandra McKenzie (B Sci.,
MAusIMM), who is a competent Person under the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral
Resources and Ore Reserves (JORC Code).
Haoma is encouraged by the latest positive results which appear to have defined a new area
containing Iron and Manganese mineralisation within the North Pole Region of the Pilbara, and will
actively pursue further fieldwork within the area during the coming work season.
Haoma will continue to keep the market informed of its progress in advancing this project.
