HuntMountain Resources 2005 Review
(SPOKANE, Wash.) HuntMountain Resources (OTCBB: HNTM)
is pleased to provide a review of its 2005 operations. We
have been diligently building a foundation consisting
of accomplished business managers and experienced exploration
professionals. HuntMountain’s
base of investors is committed to the success of the
firm and has provided the financial resources to acquire
and explore mineral properties of merit after thorough
analysis and prudent selection.
The year ahead looks very promising, and HuntMountain
is in a prime position to capitalize on the opportunities
available in the current precious metals bull market.
2005 Highlights
- HuntMountain Resources officially forms and assumes
Metaline Mining and Leasing Company, a former Spokane
Stock Exchange shell corporation.
- Two private placement financings in March 2005 increase
the Company’s cash position to US $1.1 million.

Mining & Refining Company and CEO of Sunshine Minting,
is appointed Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer
of the Company.
- Matthew Hughes joins HuntMountain as Vice President
of Exploration after serving as Chief Geologist for

and exploring precious and base mineral properties
throughout the U.S., Argentina, and Asia for 17 years.
- The Company continues to evaluate and analyze numerous
exploration and advanced stage precious and base metals
properties in North and South America. Areas
of focus include projects with up-side and near-term
production potential in Alaska, Canada, the Western
United States and Argentina.
