Novadx Provides Update on Operations

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

Novadx Ventures Corp, President & CEO, Neil MacDonald, reports: 

Novadx Ventures Corp. ("Novadx" or the "Company") - (TSX VENTURE:NDX) is pleased
to provide an update relating to its Rosa Mine in Alabama and Rex Mine in
Tennessee. The Development of both mines is proceeding as anticipated.  


At the Rosa Mine, construction of the wash plant was completed this past week
and the wash plant is now in the commissioning phase. As previously announced
the Company has been stock piling a portion of its coal production in
anticipation of opening the wash plant and now has approximately 30,000 tons on
hand to begin processing through the new facility. Auger mining operations are
meeting production targets and a second auger is scheduled to be delivered in
early November 2011. With the addition of this second auger, the Company
anticipates production and sales of in excess of 10,000 tons per month of clean
metallurgical coal by December, 2011. This production is fully contracted.
Contracts entered into earlier in the year are at a selling price of $150 ton.
The Company also recently entered into an additional contract at $180 per ton
and expects to renew the earlier contracts at this price upon expiry of their
term. 


At the Rex Mine, rehabilitation and development of the mine entry and mains are
well underway. Over the last week the Company started producing coal from the
mine as a result of developing additional mains to support future operations.
Coal seam thickness measurements in the mine are ranging between 36 and 42
inches, in line with nearby drill hole intercepts used in the calculation of the
Rex Mine's reserves announced January 24, 2010. The Company is stockpiling this
initial production in anticipation of a permit amendment being granted for the
construction and operation of a portable wash plant at the mine site. Review of
the permit amendment application is at an advanced stage. The site for the Rex
Mine's wash plant has been secured and readied for installation of the wash
plant pending the permit amendment being granted. The Company anticipates
completing its rehabilitation and development of the mine by the end of
December, 2011 with commercial production commencing in January 2012. The
Company intends to initially operate a single mining unit and add additional
mining units as the mine is further developed. Each mining unit has the
capability of producing in excess of 20,000 tons per month of clean coal, the
majority of which will meet the specification for a silicon metal grade coal.
Initial production currently being stock piled has been analyzed and the results
are meeting anticipated customer specifications. Samples have been provided to
customers for evaluation purposes and the Company anticipates entering into
contracts for the 2012 calendar year. The Company is also actively reviewing a
number of leasing opportunities to increase coal reserves and resources at the
Rex Mine. 


The Company remains focused on executing its plans to generate sustainable cash
flow through completion of development and expansion of operations at the Rosa
and Rex Mines.
