(For Immediate Release)

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, August 10, 2007 – Pine Valley Mining Corporation (TSX: PVM; OTC: PVMCF) (the “Company” or “Pine Valley”) reports that, as the result of a decision by the Company’s auditors to decline to issue an audit opinion at this time, it will not be able to release its financial statements, management’s discussion and analysis or its Form 20-F for the year ended March 31, 2007 in the foreseeable future.
