Franklin quickly becoming significant antimony supplier

Franklin Mining, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: FMNJ) (FRANKFURT: FMJ) CEO William Petty confirms that since his public confirmation of the operating agreement at Bolivia's Turiri Mine, Franklin Mining has received numerous inquiries from both US and international manufacturers and distributors concerning product availability and is presently negotiating for laboratory testing and other evaluations prior to contracting for product delivery.

"The response to our Turiri announcement has been overwhelming. We have received inquiries wanting to purchase our production. And, we have been contacted by a couple of other antimony miners with question about distributing their product," said Mr. Petty.

"Bolivia has long been recognized as being one of the few countries with proven antimony reserves. Several small operators have expressed interest in working through Franklin to find buyers for their production."
