To 'vozmil' on 'SILVER (Ag) PRODUCERS' -
thanks -

FMNJ reporting that Franklin Mining, Bolivia's General Manager,
Dr. Jaime Arancibia, and Mining Engineer, Mr. Javier Leyton,
believe the Escala Mine -
has begun showing signs of a greater than expected
silver content.

Dr. Arancibia and Mr. Leyton have worked in Bolivia's mining
and hydrocarbons industries about twenty years each -
do have the knowledge and want to send bulk samples to
processing to get the accurate info -

ex. large ore bulk samples may often be much more reliable than a
2" drill core etc.

Silver Content at the Escala Showing Signs of Increase -
Franklin Mining, Inc. -
(PINKSHEETS: FMNJ) (FRANKFURT: FMJ) CEO, William Petty
is reporting that Franklin Mining, Bolivia's General Manager,
Dr. Jaime Arancibia, and Mining Engineer, Mr. Javier Leyton,
believe the Escala Mine -
has begun showing signs of a greater than expected
silver content.

SILVER Mar 2008 (NYMEX:SI.H08.E) -

Last trade $19.015 Change +$0.295 (+1.98%)

Dr. Arancibia and Mr. Leyton have worked in Bolivia's mining
and hydrocarbons industries about twenty years each.
Their professional opinion is that the silver -
being recovered from the most recent blast sites at
the Escala is greater than previously estimated.

Using reports prepared by Austpac Gold, NL in 1993-1994
and supplied to Franklin by COMIBOL, the mineral content
in areas where blasting is currently being conducted
was estimated to be 1 Kg per ton of silver and
2 grams per ton of gold as well as economically viable
quantities of lead and zinc and some copper.

Recovery efforts completed over the past several weeks
have produced an estimated 100 tons to be processed.
The actual mineral content recovered from the Escala
will be announced when the processing of this first
month's production is complete.

Additional information on Franklin's -
plans for mining at the Escala -
is available at
www.FranklinMining.com
specifically in multiple Letters from the President
to be posted during February 2008 -
