Knoxville, Tenn., Dec. 1 - United Mining Group, Inc. said it will sell 8,888,888 units at C$0.90 apiece in a private placement. Pope & Co. Ltd. is the agent for the C$8 million deal.

The units consist of one common share and one half-share warrant and will be sold on a best efforts/commercially reasonable efforts basis. The whole warrants are exercisable at C$1.25 for two years.
