  Subject: Extension Agreement

Mr. Angapov:

This letter agreement is in regard to the Stock Purchase Agreement dated June 19, 2008 (the “Purchase Agreement”) among Rusoro Mining Ltd. (“Rusoro”), Rusoro MH Acquisition, Ltd. (“Buyer”), and Hecla Limited (“Seller”). Sections 10(a)(iii) and (iv) provide, respectively, that Buyer or Seller may terminate the Purchase Agreement by notice to the other party if the closing contemplated by the Purchase Agreement shall not have occurred on or before June 27, 2008.

The parties have continued to work diligently toward satisfying the conditions to closing set forth in the Purchase Agreement; however, despite these efforts, certain matters related to the Venezuelan government remain outstanding. Therefore, the parties have mutually agreed to extend the dates in Sections 10(a)(iii) and (iv) from Friday, June 27, 2008 to Tuesday, July 8, 2008. Sections 10(a)(iii) and (iv) of the Purchase Agreement are hereby amended accordingly.
