                                     PART I

ITEM  1.     DESCRIPTION  OF  BUSINESS

General
-------

Mines  Management,  Inc.  (together   with  its   subsidiaries,  "MMI"  or   the
"Company"),  is  engaged in the business of acquiring, exploring, and developing
mineral  properties,  primarily  those containing silver and associated base and
precious  metals.  The  Company  was incorporated under the laws of the State of
Idaho  on  February 20, 1947.  The Company has a wholly owned subsidiary, Newhi,
Inc.  Newhi,  Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State of Washington on
November  3,  1987.  The  Company's  executive  offices  are  located  at  905 W
Riverside,  Suite  311,  Spokane,  WA  99201.

With  the  exception of historical matters, the matters discussed in this report
are  forward-looking  statements  within  the  meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation  Reform  Act  of  1995 and involve risks and uncertainties that could
cause  actual  results  to  differ  materially  from  projections  or  estimates
contained  herein.  Such forward-looking statements include statements regarding
planned  levels  of  exploration and other expenditures, anticipated mine lives,
timing  of  production  and schedules for development.  Factors that could cause
actual  results  to  differ  materially  include,  among  others  ,metals  price
volatility.  Most  of  these factors are beyond the Company's ability to predict
or  control.  The Company disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking
statement  made  herein.  Readers  are  cautioned  not  to put undue reliance on
forward-looking  statements.  (  See  Investment  Considerations).

All  of  the  Company's properties are currently in the exploration stage except
for the Montanore property, which is in the stage of determining feasibility for
development.  No  property  is  currently  in  production.

The  Company  conducts exploration and development on projects containing silver
and  associated  base and precious metal values.  The company primarily seeks to
obtain royalty and other carried ownership interests in these properties through
the  subsequent  transfer  of  operating  interests  to  other mining companies.
Although  the  Company  may  engage  in  mining  operations at some future time,
substantially  all of the Company's revenue is and can be expected to be derived
from  royalty  interests  for  the  foreseeable  future.

The  Company's  principal  mineral property interest is held by its wholly owned
subsidiary,  Newhi,  Inc.,  and  consists of a net profits royalty interest in a
portion of the claims making up the Montanore project.  The Montanore project is
located  in northwestern Montana, USA, and is operated by Noranda Minerals.  The
project  has an approved Environmental Impact Statement, has received all of its
primary  permits,  and  has  been  the  subject  of a variety of pre-feasibility
technical  analyses.  Noranda  Minerals  has reported a geologic resource of 142
million  tons  containing  0.76%  copper  and 2.1 ounces of silver per ton.  The
Company  is  also  conducting exploration on its  Iroquois and Advance zinc-lead
properties  in Washington, USA.  The Company is also evaluating opportunities in
Mexico  and  the  United  States.

The  Company  also  has  a small royalty income from a working interest royalty,
acquired  more  than  40  years  ago, for several producing oil wells located in
Kansas,  USA.





<PAGE>
Competition
-----------

There  is  aggressive  competition  within the minerals industry to discover and
acquire  properties  considered  to  have  commercial  potential.   The  Company
competes  for  the  opportunity to participate in promising exploration projects
with  other entities, many of which have greater resources than the Company.  In
addition,  the  Company  competes  with others in efforts to obtain financing to
explore  and  develop  mineral  properties.

Employees
---------

During the year ending December 31, 2000, the Company had one part-time employee
located  in  Spokane,  Washington.  The Company's employees are not subject to a
union  labor contract or collective bargaining agreement.  The Company executive
officers  provide management service on a non-salaried basis.  On occasion, such
officers perform consulting services to the Company at their usual and customary
rates.

Regulation
----------

The  Company's  activities  in the United States are subject to various federal,
state,  and  local  laws  and  regulations  governing  prospecting, development,
production,  labor  standards,  occupational  health and mine safety, control of
toxic  substances,  and  other  matters  involving  environmental protection and
taxation.  It is possible that future changes in these laws or regulations could
have a significant impact on the Company's business, causing those activities to
be  economically  reevaluated  at  that  time.

Investment  Considerations
--------------------------

The  following  Investment  Considerations,  together with other information set
forth  in this Form 10-KSB, should be carefully considered by current and future
investors  in  the  Company's  securities.

Risks  of  Passive  Ownership
-----------------------------

At  present,  the  Company's  principal  asset  is its interest in the Montanore
property.  The  Company's  success is dependent on the extent to which Montanore
proves  to  be  successful  and  on  the  extent to which the Company is able to
acquire  or  create  other  royalty  or  property  interests.

The  holder of a royalty interest typically has no executive authority regarding
development  or  operation of a mineral property.  Therefore, unless the Company
is  able  to secure and enforce certain extraordinary rights, it can be expected
that the Company will not be in control of basic decisions regarding development
and  operation  of  the  properties  in  which the Company may have an interest.

Thus,  the  Company's  strategy  of having others operate properties in which it
retains  a  royalty or other passive interest puts the Company generally at risk
to  the  decisions  of  others  regarding all basic operating matters, including
permitting,  feasibility  analysis,  mine  design and operation, and processing,
plant and equipment matters, among others.  While the Company attempts to obtain
contractual  rights  that will permit the Company to protect its position, there
can  be  no  assurance that such rights will be sufficient or that the Company's
efforts  will  be  successful  in  achieving  timely  or  favorable  results.


<PAGE>
Risks  Inherent  in  the  Mining  Industry
------------------------------------------

Mineral exploration and development is highly speculative and capital intensive.
Most  exploration  efforts are not successful, in that they do not result in the
discovery  of  mineralization of sufficient quantity or quality to be profitably
mined.  The  operations of the Company are also indirectly subject to all of the
hazards  and  risks  normally  incident  to  developing  and   operating  mining
properties.  These  risks  include  insufficient  ore  reserves, fluctuations in
production  costs  that  may  make  mining  of  reserves uneconomic; significant
environmental  and  other  regulatory  restrictions;  labor disputes; geological
problems;  failure  of  pit walls or dams; force majeure events; and the risk of
injury  to  persons,  property  or  the  environment.

Uncertainty  of  Reserves  and  Mineralization  Estimates
---------------------------------------------------------

There  are  numerous  uncertainties  inherent  in estimating proven and probably
reserves  and  mineralization,  including many factors beyond the control of the
Company.  The  estimation of reserves and mineralization is a subjective process
and the accuracy of any such estimates is a function of the quality of available
data  and of engineering and geological interpretation and judgment.  Results of
drilling,  metallurgical testing and production and the evaluation of mine plans
subsequent  to  the date of any estimate may justify revision of such estimates.
No  assurances  can be given that the volume and grade of reserves recovered and
rates of production will not be less than anticipated.  Assumptions about prices
are  subject  to greater uncertainty and metals prices have fluctuated widely in
the  past.  Declines  in  the  market  price of base or precious metals also may
render  reserves  or  mineralization  containing  relatively lower grades of ore
uneconomic to exploit.  Changes in operating and capital costs and other factors
including, but not limited to, short-term operating factors such as the need for
sequential  development of ore bodies and the processing of new or different ore
grades,  may  materially  and  adversely  affect  reserves.

Proposed  Federal  Legislation
------------------------------

The  U.S.  Congress  is  currently  considering a proposed major revision of the
General  Mining  Law,  which  governs  the creation of mining claims and related
activities on federal public lands in the United States.  Each of the Senate and
the House of Representatives has passed a separate bill for mining law revision,
and  it  is  possible that a new law could be enacted.  The Company expects that
when  the  new  law  is  effective,  it will impose a royalty upon production of
minerals  from  federal  lands  and will contain new requirements for mined land
reclamation,  and  similar  environmental  control and reclamation measures.  It
remains  unclear  to  what  extent  any such new legislation may affect existing
mining  claims  or  operations.  The  effect of any such revision of the General
Mining Law on the Company's operations in the United States cannot be determined
conclusively  until  such  revision  is enacted; however, such legislation could
materially  increase  costs  on  properties  located  on federal lands, and such
revision  could also impair the Company's ability to develop, in the future, any
mineral  prospects  that  are  located  on  unpatented  mining  claims.










<PAGE>
Fluctuations  in  the  Market  Price  of  Minerals
--------------------------------------------------

The  profitability  of mining operations is directly related to the market price
of the metals being mined.  The market price of base and precious metals such as
copper  and  silver  fluctuate widely and is affected by numerous factors beyond
the  control  of  any  mining  company.  These factors include expectations with
respect  to  the  rate  of inflation, the exchange rates of the dollar and other
currencies,  interest  rates,  global or regional political, economic or banking
crises, and a number of other factors.  If the market price of  silver or copper
should  drop  dramatically,  the  value  of  the  Company's royalty interest and
exploration  properties  could also drop dramatically, and the Company might not
be  able  to  recover  its  investment  in  those  interests or properties.  The
selection  of  a  property  for exploration or development, the determination to
construct  a  mine  and  place  it  into production, and the dedication of funds
necessary  to  achieve such purposes are decisions that must be made long before
the first revenues from production will be received.  Price fluctuations between
the  time  that  such  decisions  are  made  and  the commence of production can
drastically  affect  the  economics  of  a  mine.

The  volatility  in  metals  prices is illustrated by the following table, which
sets  forth,  for  the periods indicated, the yearly high and low prices in U.S.
dollars  per  ounce  for  silver  and the high and low yearly average prices for
copper  in  U.S.  dollars  per  pound.

     Year          Silver  Price  Per Ounce     Copper Price Per Pound
     ----          ------------------------     ----------------------
                      High          Low             High         Low
                   -----------  -----------     -----------  -----------
1996                  $5.79        $4.67            $1.17       $0.91
1997                  $6.39        $4.18            $1.14       $0.87
1998                  $7.09        $4.80            $0.85       $0.65
1999                  $5.71        $4.93            $0.83       $0.62
2000                  $5.36        $4.61            $0.91       $0.75

Environmental  Risks
--------------------

Mining  is  subject to potential risks and liabilities associated with pollution
of  the  environment and the disposal of waste products occurring as a result of
mineral  exploration  and  production.   Insurance  against  environmental  risk
(including potential liability for pollution or other hazards as a result of the
disposal  of  waste  products  occurring from exploration and production) is not
generally  available  to  the  Company  (or  to  other companies in the minerals
industry) at a reasonable price.  To the extent that the Company becomes subject
to  environmental  liabilities,  the  satisfaction of any such liabilities would
reduce  funds  otherwise  available  to  the  Company  and could have a material
adverse  effect  on  the  Company.  Laws  and regulations intended to ensure the
protection  of  the  environment  are  constantly  changing,  and  are generally
becoming  more  restrictive.

Title  to  Properties
---------------------

The validity of unpatented mining claims, which constitute a significant portion
of the Company's property holdings in the United States, is often uncertain, and
such validity is always subject to contest.  Unpatented mining claims are unique
property  interests  and  are generally considered subject to greater title risk
than  patented  mining  claims, or real property interests that are owned in fee
simple.  The  Company  has  not  yet  filed  a patent application for any of its
properties  that  are  located on federal public lands in the United States and,

<PAGE>
under proposed legislation to change the General Mining Law, patents may be hard
to  obtain.  Although the Company has attempted to acquire satisfactory title to
its undeveloped properties, the Company does not generally obtain title opinions
until  financing  is  sought to develop a property, with the attendant risk that
title  to  some properties, particularly title to undeveloped properties, may be
defective.

ITEM  2.     DESCRIPTION  OF  PROPERTIES

The  significant  properties  in which the Company has an interest are described
below.  Reference  is  made  to  footnotes  in the financial statements for more
information on the properties.  The Company has relied on public disclosure made
by  its  lessee  Noranda  Minerals,  relative to its assessment of the Montanore
deposit.

Montanore  Property
-------------------

The  Montanore  property consists of 16 mining claims covering approximately 300
acres  and  a  4 acre patented mill site located in Sanders County, northwestern
Montana.  The  mining  claims  are  owned  outright  by the Company and are held
subject to a $100 per claim annual payment to the Federal government.  Eleven of
the  claims  are  leased to Noranda Minerals Corp, who is responsible for annual
claim upkeep.  The claims can be reached from Noxon, the nearest town, by taking
State  Highway 200 about 2 miles to the east and thence north about 5 miles on a
secondary  graveled  road  to  the  junction  of the west and east forks of Rock
Creek.  From  this  point  it  is  about  a 4 mile hike up a Jeep trail behind a
locked  U.S.  Forest  Service gate to the claims.  More than half the claims are
located  within  the  Cabinet  Wilderness  Area.

Eleven  of  the  Company's claims cover a portion of the Montanore silver/copper
deposit.  The  deposit  occurs within rocks of the Belt Super Group, Precambrian
metasediments  that  crop  out over much of western Montana, northern Idaho, and
parts  of adjacent British Columbia.  The Montanore is one of 3 similar deposits
to  have  been  found  within Revett Formation quartzite of the Belt Supergroup.
These  include  the  Troy deposit which was mined between 1981 and 1992, and the
Rock  Creek  deposit  currently  under  environmental  assessment.

Mineralization  within  the  Revett  Formation  is disseminated, and confined to
specific  quartzite  strata.  The  deposits  are  characterized by great lateral
extent,  relatively  uniform  grades, and thicknesses that range up to 100 feet.
Often  the deposits are bounded by a paleo growth fault, considered to have been
active  during  rock  sedimentation  and  mineral  deposition.  Mineralization
consists  in  varying  parts  of  bornite, primary chalcocite, and chalcopyrite.

The  Montanore  deposit  has been defined as being at least 12,000 feet long and
varies  between 500 and 5000 feet in width.  The long axis of the deposit trends
in  a  northwesterly  direction  parallel  with a regional fault that bounds the
mineralization  of  the southwest.  The deposit dips approximately 12 degrees to
the  northwest,  parallel  with its long axis.  Mineralization occurs within two
mineralized  beds  over  much  of the deposit's length, but seems to coalesce up
dip.  Overall  the upper zone averages 29.9 feet in thickness and the lower zone
34.8  feet.  Unmineralized  strata  between  beds varies between 20 and 200 feet
thick.  On  the  basis  of 27 surface drill holes Noranda has reported a deposit
containing  and  estimated  142  million tons and averaging 0.78% copper and 2.1
ounces  of  silver  to  the  ton.






<PAGE>
The  Company's  claims are located along the fault which bounds the southwestern
margin  of the deposit, and were staked to cover minor silver occurrences within
the  fault  or  in sympathetic parallel fractures.  The claims represent mineral
rights  to  a strip of land several hundred feet wide and about 11,500 feet long
that  cover  the projected position of the deposit adjoining the fault.  A total
of  7 widely spaced surface drill holes have intersected the deposit beneath the
Company's  claims  or  in  close  proximity  to  them.

In  1988,  Newhi,  Inc., a Washington corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of
Mines Management, Inc. acquired the assets of Heidelberg Silver Mining Co., Inc.
through  a  corporate  merger.  The  assets  acquired  by  the Company consisted
primarily  of  34  unpatented mining claims and a 4 acre patented mill site.  In
1993  the Company determined that 18 of the mining claims were immaterial to the
maintenance  of  its  interest  in  the  Montanore project and these claims were
dropped.  Of  the remaining 16 claims owned by the Company, 11 claims are leased
to  Noranda  Minerals  Corp.  who is responsible for their yearly upkeep.  Under
terms of the lease agreement, the Company is paid annual advance minimum royalty
payments of $25,000.  In addition, the Company will be paid a production royalty
of 5% of the net profits until capital investment recovery and 20% thereafter on
all  material  taken  from  the  claims.  A significant portion of the Company's
claims  are  situated  within  the Cabinet Wilderness Area and may be subject to
dissolution  for  lack of adequate discovery.  However, Noranda's mineral rights
are  also  based  upon other claims with approved discoveries, and the agreement
between  Noranda  and  the Company is specifically not affected by the status of
the  Company's  claims.

In  1983,  U.S.  Borax and Chemical Corporation discovered a major silver/copper
deposit, later to be named the Montanore deposit, which extended in part beneath
what  is  now the Company's property.  In 1984 a lease agreement, relative to 11
claims,  was  entered  into  between  U.S.  Borax and the Company's predecessor,
Heidelberg.  Subsequently  U.S.  Borax  conducted  more than 70,000 feet of core
drilling  from  the  surface  which  outlined  the  bedded  silver/copper
mineralization.

In  1988,  U.S. Borax and partners sold their interest in the project to a Joint
Venture  made  up  of  Noranda  Minerals Corp. and Montana Reserves Co.  Noranda
became  the project operator, and the project name was changed to Montanore.  In
1993  the  Joint  Venture  was  dissolved  with  Noranda retaining rights to the
project.

In  late  1989, Noranda began a major tunneling program from a point east of the
Cabinet  Wilderness  Area.  The  purpose  of  the program was to more accurately
define  and develop a portion of the deposit containing approximately 30 million
tons.  The  proposed work was to include a 3-mile long decline and approximately
2,000  feet  of  lateral  development  in  the vicinity of the deposit.  Several
lateral  headings  were planned to intersect the portion of the deposit owned by
the  Company.  Close  spaced  drilling  was planned from these workings and bulk
metallurgical  samples  were  to  be taken during this phase.  In December, 1991
tunneling was stopped at approximately 14,000 feet, or about 2,000 feet short of
the  deposit,  pending  the  completion  of  the  project's Environmental Impact
Statement  (EIS).  Also during the year Noranda completed the process to acquire
patents  to  several  of its key claims.  However, the Secretary of Interior has
continued  to  refuse to approve any US patent applications made under the terms
of  the  Mining  Law  of  1872.

During  1993  the  project Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) was approved and
all  of  the  important  permits  for the mine were granted.  As part of the EIS
process, this approval was subject to appeal, and several appeals were made.  In
1994,  after  due  consideration,  the  US  Forest  Service  denied all appeals.



<PAGE>
In  1991  an  environmental  group  had  brought suit against Noranda and the US
Forest  Service  concerning the validation of certain mining claims covering the
Montanore deposit.  In 1993 the US Secretary of Agriculture found that Noranda's
key mining claims were valid, and in 1997 the Federal District Court hearing the
case  also  ruled  that  Noranda's  claims  were  valid.  The court decision was
appealed  and  in  March,  1999  the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
upheld  the  U.S.  District  Court  decision.

Advance  and  Iroquois  Properties
----------------------------------

The  Company  owns  the  Advance  and  Iroquois  zinc-lead properties located in
northeastern  Washington  state,  approximately  6  miles  south of the Canadian
border.  The  properties  are  situated  5  miles apart along a belt of Cambrian
carbonate  sediments  that  have  acted  as host rocks for several former mines.
Both  properties  are easily accessible on secondary graveled roads by two wheel
drive  vehicles.  A large zinc smelter and refinery is located at Trail, British
Columbia,  Canada,  approximately  17  miles  distant  over  excellent  roads.

The  Company  was  originally formed in 1947 to explore the Advance and Iroquois
properties.  Since  that time, Mines Management has leased its holdings to major
companies  including:  Rare  Metals,  Inc.  (El  Paso  Natural Gas) 1959-65, The
Bunker  Hill  Company  1962-65,  Cominco  American,  Inc.  1966-67  and 1974-75,
Brinco,  Ltd.  (RTZ  Group) 1977-78, and Equinox Resources Ltd.  1989-91.  Total
expenditures  on the properties to date are estimated to be at least $1,500,000.

The  Advance  and  Iroquois  properties are located along the Deep Lake Trend, a
northeast  striking  belt of Cambrian carbonate rocks collectively designated as
the  Metaline Limestone.  Rocks of the Deep Lake Trend have been strongly folded
and  faulted  by  numerous high-angle as well as thrust faults.  As a result the
Metaline  Limestone  has  a  complex  outcrop  pattern,  with steeply overturned
bedding.

Zones  of brecciation are found throughout the Metaline Limestone and are often,
but  not  always,  the  location of zinc and lead sulfide mineralization.  These
features  are  predominantly  stratabound  and have gradational, often irregular
borders.  Individual  breccia  bodies  are  crudely lensoid in cross section and
have third dimensions that attain considerable length.  The zones often occur in
an  en  echelon,  and  sometimes  interconnected pattern.  A variety of evidence
suggests  that  the  breccia bodies are solution collapse features controlled by
favorable  stratigraphy  or  lithologic  facies.

Mineralization  consists  of irregular bands, lenses, and fine disseminations of
sphalerite  and  galena  accompanied  by  varying  amounts  of  pyrite.  The
mineralization  is  considered  to have been localized by permeable zones within
and  peripheral  to  breccia  bodies  created by solution collapse.  The sulfide
minerals  are found in white dolomite that makes up the breccia matrix and fills
other  voids,  and  also  as selective replacements of the host carbonate rocks.
Individual deposits have irregular gradational borders and are crudely lensoidal
to  oval  in  outline.  Their  elongated  third dimension parallels the regional
strike  of  the  host  rocks,  and  often plunge at low angles.  Cross sectional
widths  up  to 80 feet and heights of as much as 150 feet have been noted in the
more  prominent  zones.  Lengths  of  mineralization  vary  up to 650 feet.  The
deposits  have  a  tendency  to  occur  together in an en echelon pattern over a
stratigraphic  interval  of as much as 300 feet.  Such groupings of deposits may
be  more  or  less  interconnected and have composite lengths of as much as 5000
feet.  Metal  values generally decease outward thus necessitating a border to be
established by economic consideration.  Although individual sample values within
a  deposit may be as high as 20% zinc, average values for a deposit will usually
range  up  to  7%  zinc  and 1% lead depending upon the "assay border" selected.

The  Advance  property consists of 720 acres of patented mineral rights, located
approximately  5  miles  east of the town of Northport.  The property is reached
from  Northport,  the  nearest  town,  by taking the paved Deep Lake south for 4
miles  to  the  graveled  Black  Canyon  road and thence north for 3 miles.  The
Metaline  Formation  is  the  principal  rock  unit  to  crop out on the Advance
property.  Exploration  consisting  of  soil  sampling, drilling, trenching, and
tunneling  has  shown  that  several  zones  of  low-grade,   disseminated  zinc
mineralization  occur on the property.  The Advance property is considered to be
of  an  exploratory  nature,  and is held by the Company on a maintenance basis.

The  Iroquois  property  consists  of  62  acres of patented mineral and surface
rights,  and  15  unpatented  mining  claims  containing about   300 acres.  The
property  is  reached from Northport, the nearest town, by taking the paved Deep
Lake  road south and east for 19 miles to the graveled road marked Iroquois Mine
Road,  and  thence  northeast for three miles.  The unpatented mining claims are
held subject to a $100 per claim annual payment to the Federal government.  More
than  25,000  feet  of  drilling  and approximately 2,600 feet of tunneling have
shown  low-grade  mineralization  to  occur in multiple zones, extending for the
entire  5,000  foot  length  of  the property.  Most of the exploration has been
concentrated  in  one  area  where  a mineralized zone of disseminated zinc with
associated  lead  values has been outlined over approximately 900 feet in length
and  within  300  feet  of  the surface.  The property is considered to be of an
exploratory  nature  and  is  held  by  the  company  on  a  maintenance  basis.

Oil  Interests
--------------

The  Company receives income from a 12.5% working interest in 4 oil wells on the
Clark  lease  in Sumner County, Kansas.  Although the lease has now produced for
more  than 30 years, independent consultants calculated the Company's 1981 share
of the remaining reserves available through primary and secondary recovery to be
at  least 20,000 barrels.  Production since 1981 has totaled approximately  8910
barrels  to  the  Company's  account.

its  common  stock at a price of $.25 per share for an aggregate of $ 61,250.  A
commission  of  $6,000 was paid to selected dealers who were also granted 24,000
warrants.  Each  warrant  is exercisable for a period of one year to acquire one
share of common stock at a price of $0.30 per share. The shares were offered and
sold  pursuant  to  an  exemption  from registration under the Securities Act of
1933,  as  amended pursuant to Rule 504 of Regulation D.  Subsequent to the year
ended  December  31,  1999,  the  warrants  expired  without  issue.

ITEM  6      MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION  AND  ANALYSIS  OR  PLAN  OF  OPERATION

Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis  of  Financial  Condition and Results of
Operations  For the Year  Ended December 31, 2000,  Compared to  the Year  Ended
December 31, 1999

For the year ended December 31,  2000 the Company had a net loss of $ 3,573 or $
0.00 per share, as compared to a net loss of $ 116,626 or $ 0.0238 per share for
the  year  ended  December  31,  1999.  The decrease in net loss for Fiscal Year
2000  is attributable to a lower level of property acquisition, and exploration.





<PAGE>
During  Fiscal  Year  2000  the Company had revenue from oil sales of $10,028 as
compared  to  revenues  of  $4,622  for  the  year ended December 31, 1999.  The
increase  in revenue was primarily the result of considerable higher oil prices.
In Fiscal Year 2000, 344.8 barrels were produced and sold at an average price of
$27.17  per  barrel  as  compared with 298.8 barrels sold at an average price of
$14.65  per  barrel  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  1999.

During  the  year  ended  December  31,  2000  management  determined  that  the
exploration  potential  of the Chanarcillo property in Chile did not warrant the
expense  of  maintaining  its  rights,  and  the  project  was  relinquished.The
Company's  plan  of  operation  for  the  next  twelve  months  will  consist of
maintaining  its  key  exploration  properties   and  evaluating  new   resource
opportunities.    The  Company  does  not intend to hire a significant number of
employees  to  carry out its activities.  It is anticipated that all exploration
work  on its properties will be carried out through the services of consultants.
The  Company  currently has sufficient resources to maintain its key exploration
properties  and  satisfy  its  cash  requirements  for  the  next twelve months.

Although  the Company intends to aggressively seek to acquire silver exploration
properties  of  merit,  at  the  present time the Company has no specific plans,
arrangements  agreements  or  undertakings  to  acquire  any  additional  silver
exploration  properties.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

Board  of  Directors
Mines  Management,  Inc.
Spokane,  Washington


We  have  audited  the  accompanying   consolidated  balance   sheets  of  Mines
Management, Inc. (an Idaho  Corporation) as of  December 31, 2000  and 1999, and
the  related   consolidated  statements   of  income,  stockholders' equity, and
cash flows for  the years then ended.  These  consolidated  financial statements
are  the  responsibility of the Company's  management.  Our responsibility is to
express  an opinion  on these  consolidated  financial  statements  based on our
audit.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing  the  accounting  principles  used  and  significant estimates made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We  believe  our  audits  provide  a  reasonable  basis  for  our  opinion.

In  our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly,  in  all  material respects, the financial position of Mines Management,
Inc. as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the results of its operations and its
cash  flows  for  the  years  then  ended, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting  principles.

<PAGE>
MINES  MANAGEMENT,  INC.
NOTES  TO  CONSOLIDATED  FINANCIAL  STATEMENTS
----------------------------------------------

NOTE  1  -  ORGANIZATION  AND  SUMMARY  OF  SIGNIFICANT  ACCOUNTING  POLICIES:

Organization:

Mines  Management,  Inc.  (the  Company)  is  a  publicly held Idaho corporation
incorporated  in  1947.  The  Company acquires, explores, develops, and operates
mineral  and  oil properties principally in North America. The Company performed
exploration  activities  in  South  America  in  1999  and  2000.

Summary  of  Significant  Accounting  Policies:

a.     The  accompanying  consolidated financial statements include the accounts
of  Mines  Management,  Inc.  and  its  wholly  owned  subsidiary,  Newhi,  Inc.
Intercompany  balances  and  transactions have been eliminated.  Newhi, Inc. was
formed  by  the  Company for the purpose of merger with Heidelberg Silver Mining
Company,  Inc.  In  the  merger,  completed on April 15, 1988, Heidelberg Silver
Mining  Company,  Inc.  was  merged  into Newhi, Inc.  To effect the merger, the
Company  issued  367,844 shares of its previously unissued common stock. Also in
connection  with  this  merger, the Company issued 11,117 shares of common stock
and  paid $4,446 as a finders' fee.  As of December 31, 2000 and 1999, a portion
of  the  shares  to be distributed to the Heidelberg Silver Mining Company, Inc.
shareholders  has  yet  to be issued.  Even though a number of shareholders have
elected  not  to  return  their  shares  upon the merger, the Company is holding
approximately  60,000  shares  to  be  delivered  at  their  request.

b.     The  Company  receives  a majority of its income from a lease arrangement
which  pays  an  annual  minimum  royalty of $25,000, with contingent production
royalties  of 5 percent of the net profits until capital investment is recovered
and  20 percent thereafter.  Management believes that this source of income will
continue in the foreseeable future due to the large investment of capital by the
lessor  in  this  project;  however, royalties are unearned by the Company until
received.

c.     The Company capitalizes acquisition and exploration costs on nonoperating
mining properties.  Costs to maintain the mineral rights and leases are expensed
as  incurred.  Upon  commencement  of  operations, the capitalized costs will be
amortized  based  on proven or probable reserves.  Capitalized costs are charged
to  operations  as  impairment  losses when title to the property has expired or
when management believes the properties are not economically feasible to develop
or  hold  for  future  development.

d.     In  accordance  with  Financial  Accounting Standards Board Statement No.
121,"Accounting  for  Impairment  of Long-Lived Assets," the Company reviews its
long-lived  assets   quarterly  to  determine  if   any  events  or  changes  in
circumstances  have  transpired  which  indicate  that the carrying value of its
assets may not be recoverable.  The Company does not believe that any impairment
adjustment  is  needed to the carrying value of its assets at December 31, 2000.
e.     Property and equipment are stated at cost.  Buildings were depreciated on
the  straight-line  basis  and  were  fully depreciated at December 31, 2000 and
1999,  respectively.  Machinery  and  furniture  are generally being depreciated
using  accelerated  methods  over  estimated  useful  lives ranging from 5 to 10
years.

f.     Basic  and diluted loss per share are computed using the weighted average
number of shares outstanding during the year (4,946,956 in 2000 and 4,910,244 in
1999).  Stock  options  and  warrants  outstanding  and  issuable  shares  are
antidilutive  and  are  not  considered  in  the  computation.

NOTES  TO  CONSOLIDATED  FINANCIAL  STATEMENTS
----------------------------------------------

NOTE  1  -  ORGANIZATION  AND  SUMMARY  OF  SIGNIFICANT  ACCOUNTING  POLICIES
            (CONTINUED):

Summary  of  Significant  Accounting  Policies  (continued):

g.     Deferred  income  tax  is  provided  for differences between the basis of
assets  and  liabilities for financial and income tax reporting.  A deferred tax
asset,  subject to a valuation allowance, is recognized for estimated future tax
benefits  of  tax-basis  operating  losses  being  carried  forward.

h.     The  preparation  of  financial  statements  in conformity with generally
accepted  accounting  principles  requires  management  to  make  estimates  and
assumptions  that  affect  the  reported  amounts  of assets and liabilities and
disclosure  of  contingent  assets  and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements  and  the  reported  amounts  of  revenues  and  expenses  during the
reporting  period.  Actual  results  may  differ  from  estimates.

NOTE  2  -  STOCKHOLDERS'  EQUITY:

Common  Stock:

In  1999,  the  Company authorized the issuance of 90,000 shares of common stock
for  director fees and officer compensation.  The shares were valued at $.25 per
share, the estimated market value on the authorized date.  As of March 26, 2001,
the  shares  had  not  been  issued.

In 1999, the Company sold 245,000 common shares for $61,250 ($0.25 per share) in
cash.  In  1998,  the Company sold 640,000 shares for $128,000 ($0.20 per share)
in  cash.  In connection with the 1999 stock sales, the company granted selected
dealers  warrants  to  purchase  up  to  24,000 common shares at $0.30 per share
through  February  2000.  Compensation was not recognized for the warrant grant,
as  such  amount  was  not  material.  The  warrants  expired  unexercised.

In  1999,  the  Company issued 25,000 shares of common stock to an outside party
for an annual property holding fee. These shares were valued at $0.30 per share,
which  was  the  estimated  fair  market  value  at  the  date  of  issuance.

Preferred  Stock:

The  Company  has  authorized 10,000,000 shares of no par value preferred stock.
Through  December  31,  2000,  the  Company had not issued any of the authorized
preferred  stock.

NOTE  3  -  MINING  PROPERTIES:

Mining  properties  are  comprised  of acquisition, exploration, and development
costs  related to the Advance and Iroquois properties in the Northport region of
northeastern Washington State and the Montanore property in northwestern Montana
as  shown  below:
                                                        December 31,

MINES  MANAGEMENT,  INC.
NOTES  TO  CONSOLIDATED  FINANCIAL  STATEMENTS
----------------------------------------------
NOTE  3  -  MINING  PROPERTIES (CONTINUED):

The Advance property consists of 720 acres of patented mineral rights.  Although
the  Company  does  not own the overlying surface rights to its patented mineral
rights,  it  does  have  right  of  access  to  explore  and  mine.

The  Montanore  property  (formerly  the Noxon property) located in northwestern
Montana  includes 16 mining claims covering 320 acres and a 5-acre patented mill
site.

The  Iroquois  property  consists  of  64  acres of patented mineral and surface
rights  and  18  unpatented  mining  claims  containing  360  acres.

NOTE  4  -  MARKETABLE  SECURITIES:

The Company owns 45,000 free trading shares of Bitterroot Resources, Ltd. (BTT),
a  public  Canadian  corporation  traded  on  the Vancouver Stock Exchange.  The
shares  are  held as "available for sale."  This investment is being recorded at
fair  market value with a corresponding adjustment to stockholders' equity.  The
45,000  free  trading  shares at December 31, 2000 and 1999, have an approximate
market  value  of  $1,801  and  $623  U.S.  funds,  respectively.

NOTE  5  -  STOCK  OPTIONS:

During  the  year  ended  December  31,  1998,  the  shareholders of the Company
approved  two  stock-based  compensation  plans:  a  fixed  employee stock-based
compensation  plan  and  a  performance-based  plan.  Under  the fixed plan, the
Company may grant options to purchase up to 460,000 shares of common stock.  The
option  price  shall not be less than the fair market value on the date of grant
of  the  shares.  Stock  options  shall be exercisable within ten years from the
date of the grant of the option.  Options under the fixed plan vest immediately.

At  December  31,  2000,  the  following  fixed  plan  options were outstanding:

                Total        250,000

Under  the  incentive  plan,  the  Company  may  grant options to purchase up to
460,000  shares  of  common  stock.  The option price shall not be less than the
fair  market  value  on the date of grant of the shares.  Stock options shall be
exercisable  within ten years from the date of the grant of the option.  Options
under  the  incentive  plan  vest  immediately.

At  December  31,  2000,  the  following  incentive-based  plan  options  were

<PAGE>
MINES  MANAGEMENT,  INC.
NOTES  TO  CONSOLIDATED  FINANCIAL  STATEMENTS
----------------------------------------------
NOTE  5  -  STOCK  OPTIONS (CONTINUED):

As permitted under generally accepted accounting principles, option grants under
the  plans  are accounted for following the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 and
its  related  interpretations.  Accordingly,  no  compensation   cost  has  been
recognized  for  the grants.  Had compensation cost been determined based on the
fair value method prescribed in Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No.
123  (SFAS  123),  the  reported  net  loss  and  loss per share would have been
increased  to  approximately  $127,000 for 1999 ($.0259 per share).  There is no
pro  forma  effect  on  net  loss  for  2000.

In  determining  the  pro  forma  amounts  above,  the  value  of the grants was
estimated  at  the  grant date to be $0.11 per optioned share for 1999 using the
fair  value  method  prescribed  in  SFAS  123,   based  on  the  Black  Scholes
option-pricing  model  with  the  following  assumptions:

Dividend  rate                     -0-%
Risk-free  interest  rate           6 %
Expected  lives  of  options        5  years
Estimated  price  volatility        30%

The  following  summarizes  option  activity  for  the  years  presented:

Options  outstanding  at December 31, 2000, have a remaining contractual life of
approximately  2.4  years.

NOTE  6  -  CONCENTRATION  OF  CREDIT  RISK:

The  Company  maintains  its  cash  and   cash  equivalents   in  two  financial
institutions.  Balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
(FDIC)  up  to  $100,000  per  institution.

NOTE  7  -  DEFERRED  INCOME  TAX:

At  December  31, 2000 and 1999, the Company had deferred tax assets of $125,000
and  $150,000,   respectively,  related   to  tax-basis   net   operating   loss
carryforwards.  The  deferred  tax  assets  were  fully  reserved by a valuation
allowance  at  each date.  Changes in the deferred tax asset valuation allowance
for  2000  and  1999  relate  only  to corresponding changes in the deferred tax
assets  for  those  years.

At  December  31,  2000,  the  Company  had federal tax-basis net operating loss
carryforwards  totaling  approximately $830,000, which expire in various amounts
from  2001  through  2020.
