Nevada Exploration Inc. Signs Generative Exploration Agreement with McEwen Mining Inc.

Nevada Exploration Inc. ("NGE") (TSX VENTURE:NGE) announces the signing of a
two-year Exploration Agreement (the "Agreement") with McEwen Mining Inc. ("MMI")
to generate new gold projects in a 25,000 hectare (95 sq mi) study area in north
central Nevada (the "AOI") using NGE's proprietary hydrogeochemistry exploration
technology.


Under the Agreement, MMI has engaged NGE to complete a hydrogeochemistry
sampling program across the large AOI to indentify and delineate discrete new
target areas in exchange for a service fee. Any projects that MMI acquires
within the AOI will be deemed Designated Properties. Upon acquiring a Designated
Property, MMI will pay NGE the greater of $25,000 USD or $100 USD per claim, and
grant NGE a 30% carried interest in the Designated Property. MMI will be the
manager of the Designated Properties, will have sole discretion on the nature
and timing of all exploration and development activities at the Designated
Properties, and will be solely responsible for payment of all costs incurred in
respect of the Designated Properties. If MMI elects to continue to maintain a
Designated Property, MMI will pay NGE $100,000 USD on the first through fourth
anniversaries of acquiring the Designated Property, and then $250,000 USD on
each subsequent anniversary. If MMI completes a Production Decision Report on a
Designated Property that MMI deems sufficient to base a decision to commence
production, the Designated Property will advance under a Joint Venture
agreement.


"With this Agreement, we are leveraging our investment in hydrogeochemistry
technology to not only lead and participate in the significant upside of this
exciting generative exploration program, but to also generate revenue, moving us
closer to our objective of funding exploration through positive cash flow. We
are pleased to further develop our relationship with McEwen Mining, and look
forward to working together to identify and advance new projects in this
important part of Nevada." - Wade Hodges, President and CEO of NGE.
