HIP Newstrike Brands Ltd

Robert Coltura, President and CEO of Highpointe Exploration Inc. (TSX
VENTURE:HIP) (the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company has
received the necessary permits to allow it to proceed with the recommended
exploration program on its Tasco property located in the Taseko River area of
British Columbia. The Company has engaged the services of More Core Drilling
Ltd. to conduct the drill program. Discovery Consultants of Vernon, B.C. will
manage the exploration program and supervise the drilling. 


The proposed 3-hole 1,000 metre drill program will be drilled with an NQ2 core
rig and will test the zone where previous drill results intersected 0.28% Cu and
0.023% Mo over 288.6 m in DDH 81-2 and intersected 0.23% Cu and 0.007% Mo over
100.6 m in DDH A-1. Also, a hole will be drilled to test a well-defined
structurally controlled resistivity low, as defined by AeroTEM and ZTEM
geophysical surveys. Each hole is estimated to test a depth of 350 metres to
test for the expansion and depth of know historic zone of mineralization. This
historical drilling combined with the results from the 2010 ZTEM airborne
geophysical survey suggest that the property has good potential for porphyry
copper type mineralization.


Robert Coltura states, "This property has similar characteristics to other
porphyry deposits and occurrences that are located in the same general area
including the Prosperity deposit of Taseko Mines."


Stephen B. Butrenchuk, P. Geol., Director of Highpointe, is the Qualified Person
