War Eagle Trading Status Update
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 08/27/10 -- War Eagle Mining Company Inc. (TSX VENTURE: WAR) ('War Eagle' or the 'Company') wishes to provide an update regarding its trading halt on the TSX Venture Exchange (the 'Exchange'). As previously announced on August 16, 2010, War Eagle has entered into a letter of intent with Andromeda Resources Inc. ('Andromeda') regarding a proposed transaction under which the shareholders of Andromeda will exchange all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Andromeda for common shares of War Eagle. This transaction will be a reverse takeover of War Eagle and, in accordance with Exchange policies, trading in the Company's shares has been halted.
Before trading in the Company's shares can resume on the Exchange, the Company must comply with applicable Exchange requirements, including filing a current National Instrument 43-101 ('43-101') Technical Report on Andromeda's optioned Terrazas property. In 2005, Constellation Copper Corporation, which had previously optioned the Terrazas property, prepared a 43-101 report. Andromeda is preparing a new 43-101 report to incorporate subsequent information and expects to complete this update in September 2010. War Eagle and Andromeda will file a draft copy of the 43-101 Technical Report with the Exchange as soon as it is available.
The Company expects that once it has met all necessary regulatory conditions, trading of the Company's shares will resume.
