MineCore's Chairman and Chief Operating Officer, Jerry G. Mikolajczyk, will discuss the promising results of the white paper findings and field questions from the audience of portfolio managers and institutional investors. Mr. Mikolajczyk will also elaborate on MineCore's outlook for 2009 in light of these findings.

"The white paper research report will provide answers to MineCore and our investors as to the market size and growth of the non-gemstone market," said MineCore Chairman and Chief Operating Officer, Jerry G. Mikolajczyk. "Though we remain focused on our vertically integrated gemstone operation, market size information and growth prospects for byproducts of our core business would be of keen interest."
