("Newrange" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that Robert Archer has been appointed Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Mr. Archer has more than 35 years' experience in the mining industry, working throughout North America and Peru.

"We welcome Bob to the management team," stated Robert Carrington, who will maintain the roles of President and Chairman.

Bob's track record as a company builder and experience in the capital markets will be key components of our corporate objective of advancing the Pamlico Gold Project in Nevada to its full potential. The stronger management structure will also give me the much required time needed to steer our rapidly expanding field exploration activities at Pamlico."
"I am excited to be taking on a more active role within Newrange," Mr. Archer said. "I have enjoyed working with the Board and management over the last ten months and Pamlico is a terrific project.
