About Himalayan Capital Corp.

Himalayan Capital Corp. is a mineral exploration company with the rights,
through its wholly owned subsidiary Minera Azul Ventures Limitada, to acquire a
100% interest in a prospective copper-gold property in La Higuera, Chile (the
"La Higuera Property"). The La Higuera Property, which is located approximately
600 kilometres north of Santiago, was assembled as a result of the first-time
consolidation of mining rights in a historical copper-gold mining center and is
located in a prolific I.O.C.G. belt surrounded by excellent infrastructure in a
mining friendly jurisdiction.


The La Higuera Property covers a historic copper mining district with mining
activity dating back to at least the late 18th century; however, there has been
no known modern exploration conducted on the property. Since the consolidation
of the mining rights in June 2011, Minera Azul has initiated a rock sampling
program, completed geophysical work which has generated intense magnetic and
chargeability anomalies coincident with existing copper workings and has
commenced a 4,000 metre drill program.
