STILLWATER MINING CO.
Columbus, MT

Stillwater Mining Company’s (AMEX: SWC) 28-mile long J-M Reef in Montana is the highest-grade platinum group metals (PGMs) ore body in the world. Stillwater Mining is the only primary producer of palladium globally. The Company has one of the largest proven and probable reserve positions among precious metals companies in North America. Palladium accounts for 75% of Stillwater Mining's production, with the remaining 25% from platinum. Also recovered in the mining process are small amounts of gold, silver, rhodium, copper, nickel and cobalt, which are considered byproducts.

Stillwater Mining's principal producing property is the Stillwater Mine, located approximately five miles west of Nye, Montana. Stillwater Mining is also developing the East Boulder Project, 32 miles from Big Timber, Montana and approximately 13 air miles west of the Stillwater Mine along the J-M Reef. The Company's smelter and base metals refinery are centrally located in Columbus, Montana along Interstate 90.

Embarking on an aggressive expansion program, Stillwater Mining expects to nearly triple its production rate by 2001. "Not only are we a tremendous contributor to clean air throughout the world, but we have been good citizens during more than 12 years of operation in Montana. We have taken very good care of the environment where we operate. We have an impeccable record, with no environmental citations during this time. We have accomplished this because we believe preserving the quality of life in Montana is an inherent part of our responsibility to the communities in which we live and work." Bill Nettles, Chairman and CEO.
