(OTC : CFTN)

ALPINE, UT, Aug. 9 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - William Moeller Chairman of Clifton Mining Company (Clifton) and Rustum Roy (One of the premiere material scientists in the world) have just filed patents on a new and revolutionary ore treatment and extraction process. The new patent has been assigned to Clifton's ownership.

The New Process

The new patent pending process utilizes low cost microwaves to make ore more brittle and easier to crush and then a second treatment further in the production process helps the small metal (gold, silver, copper, etc.) particles to amass into larger ones. The larger gold particles are then easier to collect and to process. This new technology could help cut costs and increase metal recoveries in mines worldwide. Said Mr. Moeller, 'We believe this new patent, if granted and developed, will add real value to Clifton, not only in use on Clifton's gold, silver, and copper deposits, but also in leasing or licensing the technology to other companies worldwide.'

The Annual Meeting

The management of Clifton wishes to thank those who took part in Clifton's annual meeting. Notes from the meeting should be posted to Clifton's website within the next two weeks. Additional information will be forthcoming.

Clifton trades on the U.S. OTC: (CFTN).
