Pitchstone Completes Calcrete Uranium Drilling

Pitchstone Exploration Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:PXP) ("Pitchstone" or the "Company")
reports the completion of a program of reverse circulation drilling on calcrete
hosted uranium targets at the Dome property in Namibia. The property location
relative to the nearby Rossing and Langer Heinrich uranium mines, and other
uranium occurrences in the Erongo region is illustrated on Pitchstone's website
(www.pitchstone.net). Uranium in calcrete is excluded from a recently completed
agreement that allows Rio Tinto to earn into Pitchstone's interest in bedrock
hosted uranium deposits at Dome.


Namibia Calcrete Target Drilling

Fifty reverse circulation drill holes explored calcrete targets in the recently
completed campaign in an effort to find extensions to the Marble Ridge zone and
locate additional uranium mineralized paleochannels over part of the Dome
property. Down hole total gamma probe results indicate that three of the holes
intersected weak but significantly elevated radioactivity in calcrete (up to 18X
background). Geochemical analyses are pending and the Company is planning to
complete additional drilling on the property.


Corporate Update

Mr. Eric Schwitzer has resigned from the Board of Directors to pursue other
interests, but will continue in an advisory capacity with Pitchstone. The
Company would like to thank Mr. Schwitzer for his valuable contributions since
the initial public offering 6 years ago.
