Continental Precious Minerals Inc. (the "Company" or "Continental") is pleased to announce that it has signed an option agreement with Boxxer Gold Corp. to earn up to a 75% interest in the DOK copper-gold porphyry property (the "Option Agreement") located approximately 40 kilometres southwest of Telegraph Creek, in northwest British Columbia, Canada (the "DOK Property").

The cash payment schedule is as follows: C$50,000 due within 5 days of signing and three payments of $50,000 each on or before the first, second and third anniversaries of the effective date of the Option Agreement.
Upon Continental earning a 60% interest, the Company shall have the option to increase its interest in the DOK Property by an additional 15% to 75% by spending an additional US$3.0M on the DOK Property within 3 years.
