 Mr. Archie Nesbitt reports,
 Continued    drilling     on     Naneco     Minerals     Ltd.'s     Jiawula
 zinc-silver-lead-copper   deposit   in   Nei  Mongolia,  China,  has  again
 intercepted   highly   significant   massive   to   semi-massive   sulphide
 mineralization  within  zone No. 2 in core holes J-98-4, J-98-5, J-98-6. Of
 particular significance in hole J-98-4 is the 10.0m (32.8 ft) interval from
 188.0m  to  198.0m  with weighted averages 260.0 g/mt silver, 1.05 per cent
 copper, and 19.58 per cent combined lead-zinc.
 Additionally, an interval in hole J-98-5 from  124.6m  to  132m  (24.3  ft)
 graded 160.52 g/mt silver, 0.52 per cent copper, and 19.2 per cent combined
 lead-zinc and a 3.8m (12.5 ft) interval in hole J-98-6  intercepted  grades
 of  240.2  g/mt  silver,  1.07 per cent copper, and 22.07 per cent combined
 lead-zinc. The full intercepts and noted intervals are listed below.

 silver,  0.21  per  cent  Cu,  6.91 per cent Pb, and 4.14 per cent Zn which
 contained a 3.5m (11.5 ft) interval grading 439.3  g/mt  silver,  0.64  per
 cent Cu, and 25.0 per cent combined Pb-Zn.
 J-98-2 intercepted 2.5 metres (8.2 ft) grading 313.04 g/mt silver, 0.5  per
 cent copper, 15.53 per cent lead, and 11.56 per cent zinc.
 J-98-3 intercepted 3.0 metres (9.8 ft) grading 191.87 g/mt silver, 0.34 per
 cent copper, 11.82 per cent lead, and 10.95 per cent zinc.
 Naneco's technical staff continues to be encouraged by both the substantial
 thickness  and  extremely  high  grades encountered in the confirmation and
 exploratory drilling. Naneco's staff further believes  these  data  support
 the  tremendous  potential of the Jiawula district where Naneco holds a 700
 square kilometre area of interest. The Jiawula deposit zone No. 2 currently
 being  tested  is  only  one  of  forty  identified  outcropping  zones  of
 silver-copper-lead-zinc mineralization in Naneco's area of interest.
 Naneco has completed a total of 30 confirmation and exploration core  holes
 to-date  on  Jiawula  No.  2 zone with sample cutting completed on-site and
 one-half core samples being shipped to ITS in Vancouver for  assaying.  The
 remaining  one-half core is stored at the Jiawula mine site. Assays will be
 reported as available. Drilling  will  continue  through  1998  to  explore
 further  along  the  trend  of zone No. 2 and to expand on the known mining
 resource. NNE reports HOLES 4,5 ans 6 !!!
