Nevada Exploration Completes $910,000 Private Placement


April 16, 2012

Nevada Exploration Inc. (“NGE”) (TSX-V:NGE) is pleased to announce that it has closed, subject to TSX Venture Exchange final approval, a non-brokered private placement (“Financing”) issuing 9,100,000 Units at a price of $0.10, for gross proceeds of $910,000.  Each Unit consists of one common share and one-half of one non-transferable common share purchase warrant.  Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one common share at an exercise price of $0.14 for a period of two years, subject to an accelerated expiry provision described below (the “Warrants”).  All shares issued are subject to a four month hold period expiring August 17, 2012.  The proceeds of the Financing will be used to advance NGE’s exploration projects and for general working capital.

If on any 20 consecutive trading days after the issuance of the Units, the closing sales price (or closing bid price on days when there are no trades) of the common shares of NGE quoted on the TSX Venture Exchange is greater than $0.22, NGE may accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants to the 30th day after the date on which NGE gives notice to the Warrant holder of such acceleration.  NGE paid finders’ fees in connection with the Financing to arm’s length parties totaling $60,060 in cash and 728,200 Broker Warrants exercisable under the same terms as those warrants issued as part of the Units in the Financing.  All Broker Warrants are subject to a four month hold period expiring August 17, 2012.

Nevada Exploration Inc. today also announces that subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval, it has entered into a Shares for Debt Agreement pursuant to which the Company will issue 200,000 Common Shares at a price of $0.10 to reimburse an arm’s length party for $20,000 of database and software development services rendered in the ordinary course of business.

Nevada Exploration Inc.

NGE is an exploration company focused on gold in Nevada.  NGE is led by an experienced management team that has been involved with the discovery of more than 30 million ounces of gold in Nevada.

NGE is aggressively applying the latest in “blind deposit” exploration technology to identify, acquire, and advance new exploration properties in Nevada’s highly prospective, yet underexplored covered basins.  Specifically, NGE has developed proprietary hydrogeochemistry (groundwater chemistry) exploration technology to explore for gold in Nevada’s covered basins where traditional exploration techniques are challenged.

Using its industry leading exploration technology, NGE has assembled a portfolio of nine new gold projects, and with over 20,000 hectares (75 sq mi), is evolving as a major player in this world class jurisdiction.  NGE’s business model is to leverage its properties and technology to create shareholder value through generative exploration, joint ventures, and other exploration partnerships.
