NETWORK DISCOVERS 5.82 g/t OF GOLD OVER 12.0m AT LA BLANCA

Vancouver, British Columbia: Network Exploration Ltd. (the "Company") (TSX.V: NET) is pleased to announce that it has completed a 60 metre channel sampling program within La Blanca mine at the Company’s Caldera property in northern Chile. Results of the program revealed 5.82 g/t of gold over 12.0 meters.

Four adits were completed by artisanal miners in the past. Of these, the uppermost adit (#4) was the most extensive. Results of sampling of the adit walls over a length of 36 metres, which included a 4 metre section that was not sampled, show a 12.0 metre sample assaying 5.82 g/t of gold and a further 20.0 metre sample assaying 2.21 g/t. Results from the mine samples taken in two of the other adits were also highly anomalous, with the highest assay value being 1.765 g/t of gold over 2.0 m.

The highest value for gold was 9.24 g/t over 2 metres. Silver and copper values were also found to be anomalous, with maximum values reaching 20.9 g/t over 20.0 meters and 3,000 ppm over 2.0 meters, respectively.

"Individual results from these continuous channels show uniformity in the mineralization, especially in the area's upper-most level," says Marco Fernández-Concha, the Company’s senior geologist. Moving forward, Network Exploration plans to conduct a second phase of exploration, implementing vertical drilling over the northeastern part of the system.

La Blanca houses a 300m x 100m silica breccia, consisting of stockwork with quartz-sericite alteration. It is located on the western portion of a porphyry copper-gold system at the Company's 24 sq. km Caldera property.

Samples were taken at two metre intervals throughout the channels, placed in tamper proof bags and delivered by company personnel to the ALS Chemex laboratory in La Serena, Chile where they were assayed utilizing the Au plus 36 element ICP package.

This field program is managed by Señor Marco Fernández-Concha, an experienced South American geologist. This press release has been approved by Ken Thorsen, a Director of the Company and the Company's Qualified Person.
