The Company's mineral exploration assets at June 30, 2003 totaled $23.6 million compared to $12.9 million at year end 2002. The rapid increase in exploration is a result of the aggressive program the Company, together with Dynatec Corporation, its 25% Sudbury Sudbury, city, Canada

Exploration and Development Activities

During the second quarter of 2003, a total of 117,262 ft of drilling was completed in 128 holes on the properties and 4,531 samples were submitted for assay ASSAY.

Following the announcement of the initial resource estimate on February February: see month.  28, 2003, efforts during the second quarter of 2003 focused on identifying a reserve estimate to support mining activities at McCreedy West.

Metal Price and Exchange Rate Outlook

FNX Mining is exploring and developing nickel, copper, platinum, palladium and gold deposits in the prolific Sudbury Basin mining camp. Commodity price fluctuations will significantly affect the results of operations and economics of a mineral resource. The monitoring of price movements and trends for our target metals are essential to understand and monitor the viability of the Company's assets.
