("Terrane" or the "Company") (TRX: TSX-V), is pleased to announce that the Company has finalized contractual terms for the procurement of long lead-time equipment for its 100%-owned Mt.

Purchase orders placed for process plant and power supply equipment represent approximately 12% of the total initial capital cost and are within budget and on schedule (see press release October 13, 2009).
