Anglo American Exploration -USA-, Inc. 2004 Ni-Cu-PGE Exploration Results for the MAN Alaska Project.

SEATTLE -- Nevada Star Resource Corp. (OTC-BB: NVSRF and TSX-V: NEV) ("Nevada Star") announces the results of Anglo American Exploration (USA) Inc.'s (AAEUS") 2004 exploration program on Area 1 of Nevada Star's MAN Alaska property. AAEUS spent approximately $950,000 USD on the 2004 program. Based on the results of the 2004 program, AAEUS is moving forward with a more extensive geophysical and drill program in 2005.

The AAEUS exploration program further advanced the nickel-copper-platinum group element (Ni-Cu-PGE) potential in Area 1 of the MAN Alaska Property. The program focused on the major Fish Lake and Dunite Hill intrusions and was managed by AAEUS geologist Kevin Wells, a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101. The objectives of the exploration program were to:

1. Fly an airborne magnetics-electromagnetics (Mag-EM) survey (1865
   line miles) using AAEUS's proprietary SPECTREM technology.
2. Undertake geological prospecting, mapping and drill core
   examination.
3. Complete a soil sampling geochemistry program over the Fish Lake
   and Dunite Hill intrusions.
4. Combine the new geophysical, geological and geochemical data with
   data from previous exploration programs in order to identify
   targets for a spring 2005 drill program.
5. Complete structural interpretation of airborne magnetics.
6. Engage in community relations activities.

Electromagnetic Surveys

A SPECTREM airborne EM-mag survey was undertaken in July 2004; however, the survey was terminated early because of technical problems associated with the presence of thick conductive serpentinized ultramafics which limited the depth penetration capability of the airborne system.

To achieve better depth penetration, AAEUS implemented a ground geophysical program using a SQUID B-field sensor, which can detect large conductive mineralized zones within serpentinized ultramafic units at depths of up to 3,281 feet. The program was started late in the field season and will be completed during the spring of 2005. The results of the limited surveying in 2004 revealed detection of a strong 50 Siemen conductor located on or adjacent to the basal contact of the Fish Lake Intrusion. This highly conductive feature appears to be coincident with a UTEM conductor identified by American Copper & Nickel Company, Inc. ("ACNC") in 1996.

Geological Prospecting

Prospecting and mapping during the 2004 field season was successful in locating a number of disseminated magmatic sulphide occurrences in ultramafic rocks and locally derived boulders in the Fish Lake ultramafic complex. A review of previous ACNC drill core from this complex confirmed the presence of disseminated type sulphides over significant widths.

AAEUS assays of Tres Equis massive sulfide samples returned nickel values up to 1% higher than previously determined. Grab sample MAN-R-73251 assayed 6.68% nickel, 1.02% copper, 0.42% cobalt and 1.4 g/t palladium, and sample MAN-R-73279 assayed 5.79% nickel, 5.45% copper, 0.33% cobalt, and 1.04 g/t palladium.

Geochemistry

The soil sampling program (2,922 samples) defined coincident Ni-Cu-PGE anomalous sites in areas of known nickel sulphide mineralization and outlined new potential target areas within the Fish Lake and Dunite Hill intrusions. The results of the soil sampling program will be released after completion of a full analysis by AAEUS.

Structural Interpretation of Airborne Magnetics

A detailed structural interpretation of the AAEUS's Area 1 of the MAN Alaska Project area identified possible structural controls on the formation and deformation of the Fish Lake and Dunite Hill intrusions and related magmatic sulfide mineralization. The structural interpretation was based on analysis of the regional and project area airborne magnetic data and outlined a number of potential targets warranting ground follow-up.

About the Joint Venture Agreement

Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, AAEUS can earn a 51 percent interest in the southern portion of the MAN property by spending a total of $12 million USD by 2008. AAEUS has the right to increase their interest an additional 19 percent by completing a positive feasibility study, at its expense, and an additional 5 percent by arranging production financing for both AAEUS and Nevada Star.

About the MAN Alaska Project

Nevada Star Resource Corp's 271 square mile Alaskan property, officially called the MAN Alaska Project, is located 164 miles southeast of Fairbanks and 248 miles northeast of Anchorage. Exploration by Nevada Star began in 1995 in this large area which is characterized by its extremely anomalous nickel, PGE, and gold concentrations.

Exploration results to date on the MAN Alaska property indicate that it has the potential for a significant discovery of nickel, platinum-group elements, and gold metals which are in high-demand but in short supply globally, especially as the Russian Noril'sk supply diminishes.

The MAN Alaska Project, which consists of five distinct project areas: Canwell, Rainy/ Eureka, Summit Hill, Dunite Hill/Fish Lake, and Broxson, is supported by a solid infrastructure: it is accessible from two paved highways and borders the Alaska Pipeline. View the project maps at http://www.nevadastar.com/s/MANProject.asp for a breakdown of the project areas.

The southern section (Area 1) of the MAN Alaska property is now under joint venture with Anglo American Exploration (USA), Inc., who is performing its exploration program pursuant to the agreement with Nevada Star. AAEUS is a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Anglo American plc, a global leader in the mining and natural resource sector.

Nevada Star Resource Corp. is a mineral exploration company that uses the most advanced technology to search for metals that are in high demand world-wide. Nevada Star Resource Corp. currently has projects in Alaska, Nevada and Utah. The Nevada and Utah properties are in joint partnership with Round Mountain Gold, and Western Utah Copper Company, respectively. Both properties are scheduled to go into production in late 2005.
