SAN DIEGO, CA--(Marketwire - July 20, 2009) - Unico, Incorporated (OTCBB: [ UNCO ]), a natural resource company in the precious metals mining sector, today announced the addition of a new photo gallery to its corporate website, [ www.unicomining.com ], showing the shipment of an additional 21 tons of material from the Deer Trail Mine in Marysvale, Utah, to Royal Mines And Minerals Corporation for processing of gold and silver content using Royal Mines' proprietary technology for the lixiviation of precious metals.

The new photo gallery showing the shipments leaving the Deer Trail Mine and arriving at the Royal Mines facility has been added to the "Media" section of the Unico website at [ www.unicomining.com./news/othermedia.php ].

In the gallery are photographs of the shipment of 21 individual bags of sulfide concentrate, which had an approximate total weight of 42,000 pounds, or 21 tons. The 21 tons of concentrate was produced from approximately 200 tons of material taken from the 3400 area of the Deer Trail Mine.

Unico and its wholly owned Deer Trail Mining Company subsidiary had previously shipped several samples of material, including two large bulk samples, to Royal Mines' Phoenix, Arizona facility for sample testing. Photographs of the previous samples can also be viewed in the "Media" section of the Unico website. With this shipment of an additional 21 tons of material, the total amount of concentrate shipped to Royal Mines, including the samples for testing, is approximately 23 tons.
