Completion of BC Hydro Cable

Pan Pacific Aggregates plc (AIM:PPA), the British Columbia based aggregates company, is pleased to announce the completion of the BC Hydro cable diversion at its Quadling Quarry in the Fraser Valley Regional District. The 911 emergency cable at Quadling was moved to the west of the quarry where reserves have previously been worked out, to allow the Company access to new aggregate material. The power has now been switched to the new diverted cable providing PPA access to the eastern end of the quarry.

The project was completed within budget. The cause of the delay to the previously stated schedule was poor weather hindering the helicopter from lifting vital components to the top of the quarry.

As previously reported, the cable diversion enables PPA access to more than one million tonnes of further reserves and reduces operating costs by allowing direct delivery of shot rock to the processing unit.

Chairman, Lynda Chase-Gardener, comments: "The BC Hydro cable diversion project is a large step forward in the development of both the Quadling Quarry and Pan Pacific Aggregates as a Company. I would like to thank all those involved in this very complicated task and I look forward to seeing Quadling Quarry reap the benefits of this diversion"
