Declan Resources Inc. ("Declan" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:LAN) is pleased
to announce that it has agreed to purchase a 100 per cent interest in a "6 Pack"
of Athabasca Basin Properties, located in northern Alberta and Saskatchewan from
an arms-length party. The six properties encompass a total of approximately
250,000 acres and are all located within or proximal to the Athabasca Basin,
which is host to some of the world's largest and richest, high-grade uranium
deposits. Declan considers the properties to be significantly prospective and
underexplored. Maps will be made available on the Declan website shortly.
Additional details will be forthcoming in the coming weeks on the properties as
well as an exploration schedule.


The six properties are as follows:



Archer Lake, AB                                                             
Jackfish Creek, AB                                                          
Maurice Creek, AB                                                           
Maybelle North, AB                                                          
Richardson River, AB and                                                    
Thorburn Lake, SK                                                           



The Maurice Creek Property encompasses 68,000 acres immediately northwest of
Cameco Corporation's Northwest Athabasca Project (joint ventured with Forum
Uranium Corp. and Nexgen Energy Ltd.) which is host to the Maurice Bay Uranium
Deposit (historical non 43-101 compliant resource of 1.5 million pounds uranium
grading 0.6% U3O8). Recent work done there has resulted in high grade intervals
such as hole NWA-35, grading 2.48% U3O8 over 1.5 metres at a vertical depth of
26 metres, including a 0.5 metre interval grading 5.77% U3O8. Uranium
mineralization at Maurice Bay is structurally controlled and hosted by a number
of structures which parallel the Maurice Bay Fault. This regional feature
continues to the northwest through Declan's Maurice Creek Property. 


Within the eastern part of the Maurice Creek Property, a small outlier of
Athabasca Basin Sandstone is known to occur astride of a series of regional
structures; as are numerous sites with highly anomalous outcrops of
radioactivity. Historic values of up to 0.66% U3O8 have been reported. 


Exposures of basement and/or very shallow Athabasca Basin, coupled with known
uranium mineralization associated with regional structure's, attest to the
potential of this project for basement hosted uranium mineralization similar to
that known to occur at Maurice Bay, and elsewhere in the Athabasca Basin such as
the Millennium, Patterson Lake South, and Roughrider Uranium deposits.


The Maybelle North and Richardson River properties, both located within
relatively shallow parts of the western Athabasca Basin, cover potential
northerly extensions to the structure which is host to a significant uranium
deposit at Dragon Lake along the Maybelle River Shear Zone. This deposit
includes an intersection with 21% U3O8 across 5 metres and reported grades of up
to 54.5% U3O8, according to the Alberta Geologic Survey website.


According to David Miller, "Given the near term deadline for exploration on
these projects, Declan was able to secure this highly prospective land package
for a commitment to maintain them in good standing. Declan will continue to seek
highly prospective uranium assets in the Athabasca Basin, with the goal to
become the preeminent explorer within the region." 


In order to earn its 100-per-cent interest in the "6 Pack" properties, Declan
must pay the optionor $25,000 upon TSX Venture Exchange approval, and issue the
optionor a total of 2,500,000 shares following TSX Venture Exchange approval.
Declan must also pay the optionor a further $125,000 within one year of Exchange
approval. A total of $225,000 for work expenditures will be made by April 17 to
ensure the properties are maintained in good standing. The optionor will retain
a 3-per-cent gross overriding royalty on all mineral production with a 1%
buyback clause for $1 million. A finder's fee will be payable on the overall
transaction. 


Declan will engage Dahrouge Geological Consulting Ltd. (DGC) of Edmonton for
management and exploration of its Athabasca Basin uranium properties. 


Declan also announces that Mr. Michael Curtis and Mr. Garry Clark have resigned
as directors of the Company. Declan would like to thank Mr. Curtis and Mr. Clark
for their services to the Company and wishes them the best in their future
endeavours.


The board of directors of Declan is now comprised of David Miller, Wayne
Tisdale, Michelle Gahagan, Hikmet Akin, Gordon King, Jamie Newall and Craig
McLean.


Mr. David Miller, a director of Declan, is the "Qualified Person" as defined in
National Instrument 43-101, who has reviewed and approved the technical content
in this news release.
