Netco Silver Provides Exploration Update on the Toruel Project

NETCO SILVER INC. (TSX VENTURE:NEI) ("Netco" or the "Company") is pleased to
provide the following exploration update on its multi-phase exploration program
on the Toruel silver-gold-copper project in Rio Negro Province, Argentina.


The current program consists of soil sampling, rock sampling, prospecting,
trenching and geological mapping. The objective of the program is to identify
additional vein systems and establish priority locations for a subsequent drill
program, with the immediate goal of outlining a high grade zone amenable to
direct shipping of high grade ore.


To date, the program has identified three (3) new vein structures:



--  Approximately 500 meters east of the Seba Vein, strike 45 degrees: This
    new vein shows the potential to be a continuation of the Toruel East
    vein system. Approximately 1000 meters in length, it is comprised of
    strong massive quartz stockwork, druze and fluorite. The host rock is
    crystal rhyolite tuff.

--  Approximately 200 meters west of Seba Vein, strike 120 degrees:
    Approximately 200 meters in length, this vein is steep/vertical and
    comprised of strong quartz stockwork and massive quartz. The host rock
    is crystal rhyolite tuff, locally brecciated by the vein. This vein
    could represent a later system than the Seba and Toruel veins, and cut
    the north-east trending veins. 

--  The third vein system is parallel to the Ancha vein and located about
    600 meters south-west of the Canyon vein. This is likely the same system
    as the Ancha vein. It has strong stockwork of druze and massive quartz
    in small bands. The host rock is rhyolitic tuff.



Andrew Gourlay, President, states, "We are very pleased that exploration to date
has identified new quartz veins and further demonstrates the potential of the
property to host additional vein systems."


A total of 169 rock chip samples have been collected from the Toruel Property.
Samples have been submitted to Acme Analytical Laboratories in Mendoza for two
assay methods; Gold Fire-Assay 50gm fire-assay fusion and an Exploration
Elements Package that consists of a 4 acid digestion with ICP-MS detection.
Results are expected around mid-January 2012. A program of trenching and further
sampling will commence in January 2012. 


A detailed map illustrating the above is available at www.netcosilver.com.
