VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Sep. 20, 2007 (Marketwire delivered by Newstex) -- EXMIN Resources Inc. (EXMIN) (TSX VENTURE: EXM) is pleased to announce that it has signed a letter of agreement with Canarc Resource Corp. (Canarc) (TSX: CCM) to enter into a joint venture option agreement on a portion of its 45,000 hectare Batopilas project land holdings.

Canarc can acquire up to a 75% interest in a 791 hectare portion of EXMIN's Huimayvo concession (hereafter termed the 'Santiago Fraction'), which surrounds the 171 hectare Santiago Gold Project, by issuing 15,000 common shares (subject to regulatory approvals), paying US$25,000 cash to EXMIN after year 1 and spending up to US$1 million on the project over 5 years. After vesting, Canarc and EXMIN intend to form a joint venture to continue the exploration and development of the Santiago Fraction.

Craig Gibson, Executive Vice President, Exploration of EXMIN, stated, 'We are pleased to enter into a joint venture with a quality partner like Canarc. They previously acquired the Santiago prospect which is located on a group of concessions owned by a third party but completely surrounded by EXMIN's large land package. The mineralized system extends onto our concession and it makes sense to explore the area as a whole.'

The Target

The exploration target at the Santiago project consists of precious metal bearing epithermal veins within a wider lower grade alteration zone; eight parallel, gold-bearing, quartz-sulfide veins have been identified. Canarc geologists channel sampled three of the eight known veins yielding consistently high grade gold assays, including 30.3 grams per metric ton (g/t) gold over 2.3 metres (m) in the Veta Blanca, 7.0 g/t gold over 5.0 m in the Veta Tajos and 17.7 g/t gold over 2.5 m in the Veta Verde.

One of the prominent alteration zones trends onto the Santiago Fraction being optioned from EXMIN and may represent a high level extension of the high grade gold veins exposed at lower elevations on the Santiago properties. Canarc is undertaking an initial exploration program of geological mapping and rock sampling at the Santiago and newly acquired Santiago Fraction properties in order to delineate targets for drilling.

The Santiago prospect may be related to the regional scale structure that extends northward from the formerly producing Tres Hermanos mine to EXMIN's 100% owned La Verde prospect. Surface sampling by EXMIN along the structural zone exposed on the La Verde concession has yielded values of as much as 7.65 grams per metric ton (g/t) gold and 4% copper over 3 metres, and 5.67 g/t gold and 5.9% copper over 3.4 metres, as well as locally important silver, zinc and lead values. For more information on the La Verde prospect and the Batopilas land holdings, please see EXMIN's news release of October 5, 2006.

Quality Assurance

Rock samples from Canarc were prepared and analyzed by BSI Inspectorate at their labs in Durango, Mexico, Reno, Nevada; gold and silver were determined by fire assay with an atomic absorption (AA) finish.

Samples taken by EXMIN were prepared and analyzed by ALS Chemex at their labs in Mexico and Vancouver and generally consisted of 1-3 kg of material. Gold analyses were performed by fire assay with an AA finish, and silver and other elements were analyzed as part of a multi-element ICP package using an aqua regia digestion.

Dr. Craig Gibson, PhD., Certified Professional Geologist, and Executive Vice President of Exploration is the authorized professional geologist for the Company and the direct manager of all technical programs and information.
