at the company's annual general meeting held on February 15, 2007. Mr. Harter
has been a major contributor to building the impressive portfolio of
properties that the company holds. Garnet Harter, who has worked with the
Company for the past nine years has accepted the position of Interim President
and CFO until a suitable candidate can be recruited to fill the President's

has acted as both an investment banker as well as merchant banker for a series
of private and public companies.
The Company also announces the closing of a flow through private
placement of 139,800 units at a price of $.50 per unit for aggregate proceeds
of $69,900. Each unit contains one common share of Solid and one warrant. Each
warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire an additional common share
of Solid for a period of one year from date of issue and has an exercise price
of $1.00. The securities are subject to a hold period which does not expire
until May 24, 2007. This transaction has been approved by the TSX Venture

Solid also announces that it has issued 240,000 common shares to

significant mining properties to the company's portfolio. The shares are
subject to a four month hold period from date of issue. The value of the
transaction is $75,000 U.S. This transaction has been approved by the TSX
Venture Exchange.
The Company also announces that it has closed a private placement funding
arrangement with Solid Resources No.1 Limited Partnership in February, 2007.
Under the terms of the private placement the company will be reimbursed for
certain previous operating expenses in exchange for the Limited Partnership
acquiring a 10% share of the company's gross revenues for the next 10 years.
The company also acquired rights under the agreement, under certain
conditions, to exchange shares of the company rather than expending cash to
the limited partnership. The company was reimbursed for $3,500,000 in expenses
from gross proceeds of the offering, of which a portion was in cash and the
balance in notes receivable. The net cash proceeds to Solid totalled $350,000
which are being used for certain expenditures related to increasing the
reserves and updating the feasibility that was prepared in 1999 on the
company's Peruvian copper porphyry deposit and for general and administrative
expenses. The company has currently issued no new shares under this
transaction.
