Savant Explorations Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:SVT) ("Savant") is pleased to announce it
has received the US$500,000 option payment from Minera Fuego, a private Chilean
Company for Savant's Yuby-Gabriela Property, Chile. Under the terms of the
agreement, Minera Fuego can earn a 100% interest in the property by making US$
4.03 million in payments over 48 months to Savant. Savant will retain a 2.5% NSR
in the project; Minera Fuego will have the right to reduce the NSR to 1.5% by
paying Savant US$ 5 million. To date, Savant has received US$1,030,000 in option
payments. The next option payment of $1,000,000 is due in 12 months time with a
subsequent option payment of US$2,000,000 due in 24 months. 


Jack McClintock, President & CEO, commented: "We are very pleased that Minera
Fuego has elected to continue with the option on our Yuby-Gabriela Property. The
significant cash payment comes during a challenging market environment for
junior explorers and demonstrates the value of asset leverage as an alternative
to dilutive equity financings."
