Focus Arranges $1.2M Private Placement

Focus Ventures Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:FCV) is pleased to announce that it has
arranged, subject to stock exchange approval, a non-brokered private placement
financing of up to 10 million units at $0.12 per unit, for proceeds of up to
$1.2 million. Each unit will consist of one common share and one-half of a
warrant, each full warrant entitling the holder to purchase one additional
common share of the Company at $0.18 for two years from closing. 


A finder's fee may be paid on a portion of the placement. The finder's fee will
consist of 7% cash or units and 7% warrants, each such warrant entitling the
finder to purchase one common share of the Company at a price of $0.18 for two
years.


The proceeds of the financing will be used for exploration of the Company's
Bayovar 12 phosphate project in Peru, and for general working capital purposes. 


The Bayovar 12 mining concession is close to the operating Bayovar phosphate
mine, owned by Vale, Mosaic and Mitsui. Focus believes the Bayovar 12 property
shows potential to host a large sedimentary phosphate deposit and is planning a
systematic grid-based drill program which will commence as soon as exploration
permits are received from the authorities.
