Golden Eagle Advances Gold Project in Eastern Bolivia; Bolivian Government Continues to Show Support for Country's Mining Industry.

SALT LAKE CITY -- Golden Eagle International Inc. (OTCBB: MYNG) announced today that its field crews are advancing its gold project on the B and C Zones of its Ascension Gold-Copper Trend in eastern Bolivia.

During the past month the build-out of the mining camp for the B and C Zones exploration and development was completed. Exploration and infrastructure surveying, and work clearing access to various points on the target sites, have been accomplished. Auger drilling and sampling along survey exploration lines has been carried out and is continuing. The company is also designing its pilot plant to take advantage of components that it has in inventory in Santa Cruz, and is working within the local market to acquire any additional required pieces.

"The activity level is currently very high on our B and C Zones gold project," stated Mac Delozier, Golden Eagle's VP for Bolivia. "We are working diligently to finish up our exploration efforts to get this project into pilot production."

This week Golden Eagle's officers in Bolivia also received positive representations of support from the Ministry of Mining and Metallurgy. These communications follow up on Minister Walter Villarroel's comments in May at the annual convention of the PDAC where he confirmed the government's desire to "create a competitive and secure environment for mining investment that will foster job creation, infrastructure modernization and industry partnership." The Minister also stated, "I am pleased to have this opportunity to send the message from the president (Evo Morales) that we are working hard to establish the legal security that investment in the mining industry requires on a long-term basis."
