Nevada Exploration Inc. Confirms Start of Second Core Hole at Fletcher Junction

Nevada Exploration Inc. ("NGE") (TSX VENTURE:NGE) is pleased to announce that
Spruce Ridge Resources Ltd. ("Spruce Ridge"), NGE's exploration partner at NGE's
Fletcher Junction Gold Project (the "Project") in Mineral County, Nevada, has
confirmed start of a second core hole. Drill hole FJ15 will be drilled to a
planned depth of 600 meters at an angle of -60 degrees to intersect the target
zone, believed to be a potentially gold mineralized fault structure that
projects northward from the Aurora mining district beneath an estimated 250m of
alluvium.
Spruce Ridge reported that geochemical analyses from the first hole of the
current program (FJ14) indicated anomalous to highly anomalous values in silver,
arsenic, antimony, mercury, and molybdenum, all of which are considered to be
pathfinder elements that point to gold-bearing hydrothermal systems. Both the
alteration and the geochemical anomalies are the types that are typically found
within a few hundred metres of numerous epithermal gold deposits located in the
adjacent region and elsewhere in Nevada, like Aurora, Bodie, Comstock, Sleeper
and Midas. The target is defined by a zone of low resistivity detected by
inversion of VTEM(R) airborne survey data, as well as by a linear cluster of
highly anomalous gold contents in groundwater samples from natural springs and
previous reverse-circulation drill holes.
