PRESS RELEASE

Clifton Mining Company Inc. (OTC: CFTN)
FOR RELEASE B January 31, 2006

ABL NEW RECORD SALE ANNOUNCED

American Biotech Labs (ABL), a private company (Clifton Mining Company owns over 24% of ABL) has just received the largest single order in the company’s history, doubling its previous record. The private label order from a European company for 150,000 bottles of ABL product.

THE NEW ORDER

The largest previous single order was for 75,000 bottles. The company that just purchased the 150,000 bottles from ABL has been a client of ABL for five years and started with a single order of only 2,500 bottles at a time. Said Keith Moeller, a managing director for the company, “Management sees this steady growth as the ultimate verification of the product’s effectiveness.  Double digit growth is occurring in almost every market sector. This growth is occurring not just through the acquisition of new accounts, but through existing accounts as well.  Last year saw sales growth near 50%.   The order we have just received lays a foundation for another excellent year. In addition, the company is planning to release two new products this summer.

Clifton trades on the U.S. OTC: (CFTN).  For additional information, contact Dr. Ken Friedman, President at 303-642-0659, and Keith Moeller Vice President at 801-756-1414 or see our website at www.cliftonmining.com
