AVU Avrupa Minerals Ltd

Avrupa Minerals Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:AVU) is pleased to announce that it has
arranged a private placement of $350,000 by way of a non-brokered private
placement of units ("the "Units"). Avrupa recently signed an exploration
alliance agreement with Callinan Royalties Corporation ("Callinan"), and this
private placement is also from Callinan. 


Paul Kuhn, President and CEO, commented: "We are pleased to have a strong
financial and technical supporter in Callinan, and we will work hard to build
value for their investment and our alliance agreement. The additional funding
will allow us to continue to build up our premier generative program in Portugal
and elsewhere in Europe in order to attract new joint venture partnerships."


The financings completed in the last month add to a total of $1.1 million
including the minimum exploration alliance payment of $150,000 that Avrupa has
now received from Callinan.


Avrupa has also granted Callinan the right to maintain its ownership position in
Avrupa by way of participation in future private placements. 


Avrupa's major shareholders also include the Management team (17%) and other
strategic shareholders who own approximately 14%. Callinan will hold 9.1% after
closing of the financing.


The financing will consist of 3.5 million Units at a price of $0.10 per Unit.
Each Unit is comprised of a common share and a non-transferable common share
purchase warrant. Each warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one
additional common share at a price of $0.15 per common share for a 36-month
period starting on the closing of this offering. These terms are the same as the
terms for the $600,000 financing completed in September. 


Avrupa currently has 35,043,571 common shares outstanding which will increase to
38,543,571 common shares upon completion of this financing.
