VAL D'OR, QUEBEC--(Marketwire - July 29, 2011) - Century Mining Corporation ("Century" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:CMM - News) today announces that it has entered into a loan agreement to borrow $1 million as a working capital loan which will bear interest at a rate of 17% per year. The loan may be converted after three months from the closing date at the option of the lender into 3,703,704 Century common shares at a conversion price of $0.27 per share, which is the closing price of Century common shares on July 28, 2011. Alternatively, the lender may elect after three months from the closing date to receive payment in gold or cash at an effective gold price representing a 10% discount from the current spot gold price. If neither of these options is exercised by the lender, the loan is to be repaid in cash at the maturity date of twelve months after the closing date.
