PLY Playfair Mining Ltd

Due to strong interest in this financing, Playfair Mining (TSX VENTURE: PLY), in connection with its previously announced flow-through private placement, has increased the amount to be raised from $1 million to $2.5 million.

Playfair closed on a $700,000 first tranche of its non-brokered flow-through private placement which was announced on September 10, 2010. Finder's fees of $25,500 cash, 380,000 common shares and 8,000 broker warrants are payable on this first tranche. All securities issued pursuant to this first tranche are subject to a hold period expiring February 15, 2011.

Playfair will use the proceeds to commence drilling on its 100% owned Seal Lake project, a region of widespread strata-bound sediment-hosted copper-silver mineralization.
