Business Wire, Oct 26, 2007

Company Voluntarily Consents to Deregistration under Section 12(j) as a First Step Toward Filing a Registration Statement on Form 10

CARROLLTON, Texas -- Grand Central Silver Mines, Inc. (Pink Sheets:GSLM) announced today that the Company has voluntarily consented to deregistration by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission under Section 12(j) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company agreed to this action as a first step towards filing a registration statement on Form 10 containing current public information.

The Company expects the process will take several weeks and that its shares of common stock again be quoted for trading by market makers on the Pink Sheets after the Form 10 is declared effective by the SEC.

William Aldrich, President of Grand Central Silver Mines, Inc., said, "Due to market forces and depressed mineral prices almost a decade ago, Grand Central was unable to provide the necessary reports to the SEC. We have been working diligently during the past several months to address these issues and it was determined that it would be both impractical and prohibitive to reconstruct the delinquent reports from that time period. Consequently, we voluntarily agreed to this action as a first step towards filing a new registration statement with audited financial statements covering the past three years. As we work toward filing the new registration statement, we will keep our shareholders informed of the progress of the Company and its plans for the future. We are confident that future events coupled with the strong demand for minerals worldwide will bode well for the Company."

The Company will continue to provide information to its shareholders through press releases as developments occur. Shareholders are encouraged to contact the Company's investor relations and communications representatives at the numbers below with questions or concerns.
