Expedition Mining Inc. (TSX VENTURE:EXU) (the "Company") is pleased to announce
it has entered into an option agreement with Nevada prospector, Larry McIntosh,
to acquire a 100% interest in a gold property located within the Walker Lane
Mineral Belt. The property is known as the Long Canyon Project, in Mineral
County Nevada. 


LONG CANYON PROPERTY 

This property consists of 37 unpatented lode claims within two blocks, 10 claims
form the Long Canyon South block and 27 claims comprise the Long Canyon North
block. The two blocks cover approximately 83.5 and 225.4 hectares respectively,
located 200 kms southeast of Reno and 16 kms southeast of the community of Mina,
Nevada. Preliminary rock sampling has returned gold values up to 1.7g/t over 3
m, and up to 9.7g/t gold and 529g/t silver in grab samples. The south block
hosts an extensive siliceous zone containing strongly anomalous mercury (to
155,000ppm), antimony (to 987ppm) and arsenic (to 2790ppm) values. The north
block covers a NNW trending swarm of branching, anastomosing rhyolite dikes and
two types of associated mineralization, i.e, low sulfide quartz-adularia
epithermal veining and bleached, highly altered breccia with abundant specular
to botryoidal hematite, barite and phosphates in the matrix. The composite north
block zone exhibits mineralogical and geochemical patterns traceable over a
strike length of at least three miles that are suggestive of a distal IOCG-type
environment. 


The Long Canyon project is situated in southeastern Mineral County and is
flanked by several well known historical mining districts. The Pilot Mountains
to the north have a long history of mercury production, followed by tungsten
mining along the eastern edge of the range. The former producing Belleville Mine
8 kms north of Long Canyon reportedly produced around 100,000 ozs to 1939 from
two quartz veins. 


To the west the Douglas Camp area was dominantly a gold and silver camp which
also contained abundant scheelite and produced over $1,000,000 of tungsten
during and after WW1.


To the southwest the Candelaria District was known for high grade silver
deposits which averaged 60oz/ton in the early days of mining. By 1999 over 68
million ounces of silver had been extracted from the mines in this district.


The Long Canyon Agreement 

The Long Canyon Project Agreement (the "LC Agreement") with Larry L. McIntosh
and Susan K. McIntosh (the "Owners") calls for lease payments and issuance of
shares to be made as follows:
