Jaguar Mining Enterprises Provides Operations Update and Outlook for Cascaronal Project, Jalisco Mexico

Jaguar CEO Dale Williams commented: "One of the reasons that iron ore is an enticing area for investment and is attracting attention from investors is the prospect of increasing demand as steelmakers recover. Recently, Rio Tinto Group, the third largest mining company in our industry, raised its 2009 forecast after a strong performance in the second and third quarters. The world's strengthening economy and China's increasing demand for steel under its economic stimulus program has worked against the push for lower-priced iron ore, and we plan to begin production on our Cascaronal Project in time to participate in what we feel will be an upswing in iron ore prices going forward."

Jaguar is currently finalizing its pre-production plans for the Cascaronal Project including equipment leases, facilities, transportation and permitting. During upcoming meetings in Manzanillo, Mexico, senior management will also be negotiating with buyers in an effort to insure a smooth and timely transition to full production, scheduled to commence once permitting has been secured.

With the impending announcement of the Cascaronal Project achieving commercial production, Jaguar plans to make its mark as a reliable producer and provider of iron ore to key international markets. Mr. Williams said, "The iron ore mining and processing experience of our technical team will be a vital component for a successful transition. Additionally, it is most important for an iron ore producer to have access to reliable transportation and port facilities in order to leverage the opportunities of international demand. Jaguar is in the process of securing both."

Outlook

Jaguar plans to convert the Cascaronal Mine from pre-production to production, with the mine being brought up to full production within 120 days thereafter. The company anticipates that it will be cash flow positive at the end of 2010, with revenue of $4.5 million and earnings of $.02 per share. Thereafter, Jaguar is forecasting a 300% increase in annual revenues by fiscal year end in 2012 based solely upon the estimated reserves of the mining leases it currently holds.

Jaguar intends to build upon the platform of assets, production, and cash flow established over the next 12 months. The growth profile of Jaguar will include three primary areas of focus: organic growth of production at the Cascaronal Project; the development of two additional mines in Colima, Mexico; and potential acquisitions of other junior mining operations.
