Vancouver, B.C. Monument Mining Limited (TSX-V:MMY and FSE:D7Q1) (“Monument” or the “Company”) releases the current status in respect to the acquisition of Famehub Ventures Sdn. Bhd. (“Famehub”) and its 32,000 acres of prospective exploration land and an associated data base announced on January 21, 2008. This additional exploration land package is located adjacent to its present 100% owned Selinsing Gold Project and adjoining exploration target Buffalo Reef. The associated exploration data was generated from expenditure carried out on the land package titles located adjacent to Monuments Selinsing Gold Project and adjoining Buffalo Reef exploration target.

The Company advises that due diligence in relation to the acquisition is progressing well. However the transaction will not close until all regulatory, governmental and other approvals in Malaysia and Canada have been obtained. The transaction is fully on track but due to the nature of the acquisition package and the substantial number of titles in the package, it is a time consuming process and the Company is unable to estimate when the due diligence will be completed. Updated information will be released when available.
