Uranium Power Corp. ("Uranium Power" "UPC") (TSX VENTURE:UPC) is pleased to announce that it has agreed to purchase a 100% interest in 232 lode mining claims, "Wild Band" (approximately 11,700 acres) in Mohave County, Arizona, from Nu Star Exploration, LLC. These Wild Band claims are located in an area known as the Arizona Strip. Air photo interpretation and geological mapping have identified a total of fourteen potential uranium-bearing breccia pipe targets on the claims.

UPC will pay the vendor $125,000, plus reimbursement of costs of $300 per claim. The vendor will retain a 4% net royalty on any future production from the claims.

Eight uranium mines hosted in breccia pipes were brought into production on the Arizona Strip during the late 1970's and early 1980's. These mines were owned and operated by Energy Fuels. These mines reportedly produced over 20 million pounds of uranium at an average grade of 0.65% U3O8.

The uranium-bearing pipes result from collapse related to the dissolution of the underlying Redwall Limestone. These breccia pipes commonly occur in clusters and have been interpreted to be controlled by sets of fractures. The Wild Band claims are located adjacent to the drilled-out EZ-1 and EZ-2 pipes (owned by Pathfinder Mines) which have drilled out uranium resources. They are situated on a northwesterly trend that contains the past-producing Hack Canyon mines as well as the Arizona 1 Mine which is currently on stand-by (owned by Denison Mines).

Chris M. Healey, President of UPC, commented, "This acquisition almost doubles our land holdings in the Arizona Strip. With the intense competition for land in the area, I am delighted that we have been able to acquire such high quality uranium targets. Along with our interest in the fully permitted Sheep Mountain uranium deposit, the potential for discovery on these newly acquired claims will significantly enhance the value of the company to our shareholders."

Chris M. Healey, P.Geo, is the qualified person responsible for the technical information contained in this release.
