LAS VEGAS,
April 23, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- FRANKLIN MINING,
INC. (Pink Sheets: FMNJ OTC:BB - News)
– CEO William Petty has today announced a management
reorganization designed to align Company
Executives, Staff, and Operating
Units, with core minerals and metals market
sectors for each of its areas of operation.
In discussing the reorganization, Mr. Petty confirms
that Mustafa Dar has been removed as President. Mr. Dar
joined the Company in October
2011 and served as President during a critical period
of Franklin's corporate restructuring. With the recently

mining operations in the Republic of Bolivia, today was the appropriate
opportunity for Franklin to announce its search for an
experienced mining executive to serve as President. In addition to
his role as Chairman and CEO, Mr. Petty will serve as President
until the search is complete.
In order to focus on all mining operations in the Republic
of Bolivia, Mr. Beltran has been reassigned to the
position of Controller, Franklin
Mining, Bolivia. Mr. Beltran had previously served as
Chief Financial Officer, Franklin
Mining, Inc.
In confirming today's announcements, Mr. Petty expressed
his appreciation to both Mr. Dar and Mr. Beltran for their
service to the Company and assistance to him, personally, as
Franklin has during the past two years achieved several key
goals.
