Minco Mining Announces Normal Course Issuer Bid

 Minco Mining & Metals Corporation (TSX: MMM AMEX: MMK) (the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") has accepted the Company's Notice of Intention to Make a Normal Course Issuer Bid. Under the terms of the Normal Course Issuer Bid, the Company may acquire up to 2,107,210 common shares of the Company (the "Shares") between November 22, 2006 and November 21, 2007. The Company has not acquired any of its shares in the last 12 months.

Management is of the opinion that the market capitalization ($77 million) of Minco Mining does not reflect the assets of the Company, including $12 million in cash, 14 million shares of Minco Silver Corporation (valued at $40 million) and a portfolio of mineral properties in China. The Company intends to hold all shares acquired under the issuer bid for cancellation or possible resale at a later date.

All Shares purchased by the Company under the Normal Course Issuer Bid will be effected through the facilities of the TSX. The Company is limited, pursuant to the policies of the TSX on issuer bids, to purchase not more than 842,884 shares (2% of the Company's 42,144,219 issued and outstanding Shares as of October 31, 2006) during any 30-day period to a maximum of 2,107,210 Shares (5% of the Company's 42,144,219 issued and outstanding Shares) during the 12 month period. The price at which the Shares will be purchased pursuant to the Normal Course Issuer Bid by the Company will be the market price of the Shares at the time of acquisition and will be at a price that is not higher than the last independent trade of a board lot of Shares of the Company.
