New Break Increases Moray Property Position Through Acquisition and Staking

New Break Resources Ltd. (CSE: NBRK) ("New Break" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company has increased its land position to the west and northwest of its main Moray property ("Moray") through the acquisition of approximately 4,719 hectares and staking of approximately 473 hectares of additional mineral claims. Moray is located approximately 49 km southeast of Timmins, Ontario, where the Company's recent maiden drilling program resulted in a new gold discovery. The newly acquired and staked minerals claims are shown as the "Acquired Claims" in orange and "Staked Claims" in red in the figure below and along with the "Existing Claims", represent 22,275 hectares of mineral claims owned by New Break.

The new claims cover approximately 5,192 hectares, including 473 hectares comprised of 22 single cell mineral claims which were acquired by New Break at a cost of $1,100 from the Ontario Ministry of Mines when the ground became open for staking. The additional 4,719 hectares (the "Acquired Claims") are being acquired pursuant to a mining claim acquisition agreement (the "Agreement") entered into by New Break with two arm's length individuals (the "Vendors").

Under the terms of the Agreement, the Vendors will receive a cash payment of $20,000 and will be issued 500,000 common shares of New Break (the "Consideration Shares") at closing in exchange for 100% ownership in the Acquired Claims, which will also be royalty free. The Consideration Shares are subject to an escrow arrangement from which 50% of the Consideration Shares will be released four months and one day following closing and 50% six (6) months from closing. All cash payments and issuances of Consideration Shares will be split 50% and 50% corresponding to the respective ownership percentages of the Vendors. The acquisition of the Acquired Claims is subject to the approval of the Canadian Securities Exchange.

Michael Farrant, President of New Break stated, "This property acquisition bridges the gap that existed between our main Moray property and many of the mineral claims that we own to the west of Moray and expands our property footprint to the northwest of Moray. In Bartlett Township, we hold a large number of claims that are contiguous with the Texmont nickel sulphide project operated by Canada Nickel Company Inc. Overall, we believe that New Break's property position to the west and northwest of Moray, holds the geologic potential for additional mineral discoveries in addition to our recent gold discovery in the Zavitz zone at Moray."

Comment on Recent Staking of Mineral Claims to the North and East of Moray

The Company is aware of the recent staking of mineral claims to the north and east of New Break's Moray property by another public company. These claims had sat open for staking for some time and had been evaluated by New Break's technical team for potential staking. New Break concluded that these claims held little to no potential for mineral discovery based on their underlying geology and absence of any known structures necessary for offering the possibility of hosting an economic orebody. Staking these claims would have only resulted in additional holding costs and offered no opportunity for improving the geologic potential of the Moray project.
