Hunt Mining Corp.  ("Hunt") (TSX VENTURE:HMX) is pleased to announce it has
signed a new agreement with Fomento Minero De Santa Cruz Sociedad Del Estado
("Fomicruz") for the La Valenciana project in Santa Cruz Argentina. The La
Valenciana project lies to the west of, and is contiguous to, Hunt's La Josefina
project. The La Valenciana project is also contiguous to and north of the
Joaquin Silver-Gold project, which was recently purchased by Coeur D' Alene
Mines Corp. 


 The new agreement for La Valenciana has the following provisions: 



--  The exploration period is seven years and will end on October 31, 2019; 
    
--  Hunt through Cerro Cazador S.A. ("CCSA"), its 100% owned Argentine
    subsidiary, will make a total investment of at least USD$5,000,000 in
    exploration on the La Valenciana project; 
    
--  If Hunt elects to take the La Valenciana project into production, it
    must create a new corporation (the "JV corporation"), that will be 9%
    owned by Fomicruz; 
    
--  Upon completion of a final feasibility study on the La Valenciana
    project, Fomicruz will have a one-time-only 30 day option to elect to
    purchase up to an additional 40% of the JV corporation, which would
    bring its total ownership to 49%. If Fomicruz elects to exercise this
    option, consideration for its additional investment will be made
    according to the following schedule: 
    
    --  To purchase an additional 10% interest in the JV corporation,
        Fomicruz must reimburse Hunt for 10% of the exploration investment
        made by Hunt during the exploration period, bringing Fomicruz's
        total ownership interest in the JV corporation to 19%; 
        
    --  To purchase the next additional 10% interest in the JV corporation,
        Fomicruz must reimburse Hunt for 20% of the exploration investment
        made by Hunt during the exploration period, bringing Fomicruz's
        total ownership interest in the JV corporation to 29%; 
        
    --  To purchase a final additional 20% interest in the JV corporation,
        Fomicruz must reimburse Hunt for 25% of the exploration investment
        made by Hunt during the exploration period, bringing Fomicruz's
        total ownership interest in the JV corporation to 49%. 
        
--  Hunt, through its Argentine subsidiary, has the right to buy back any
    increase in Fomicruz's ownership interest in the JV corporation at a
    purchase price of USD$200,000 per each percentage interest owned by
    Fomicruz down to its initial ownership interest of 9%;  
    
--  Hunt has the right to purchase Fomicruz's initial 9% ownership interest
    of the JV corporation at a price to be negotiated by the parties. 



Matt Hughes, Hunt's President, stated; "We have been working on this contract
for the last three years and are excited to add this prospective property block
to our current portfolio of projects. Management believes that the La Valenciana
project and Hunt Mining's other Santa Cruz, Argentina precious metals projects
have continued gold and silver exploration potential."
