Re: Nevada Manhattan Mining Incorporated
Withdrawal of
Registration Statement on Form SB-2
------------------------------------
Ladies and Gentlemen:
On behalf of Nevada Manhattan Mining Incorporated, a Nevada corporation
(the "Company"), we hereby request the withdrawal of the Company's Registration
Statement on Form SB-2 relating to the registration of $22,755,000 of Common
Stock of the Company (Registration Statement No. 333-27923). The reason for
this withdrawal request is that the Company believes that current market
conditions for its common stock do not warrant proceeding with an initial
public offering at this time.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the
undersigned at (310) 443-9559.
Very truly yours,
/s/ LLOYD S. PANTELL, APLC
