Newcastle Minerals Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:NCM) is pleased to announce that it has
closed its previously announced non-brokered private placement of 10,000,000
units at a price of $0.05 per unit with Trelawney Mining and Exploration Inc.


Newcastle's President, Michael Romanik, said, "We welcome Trelawney Mining and
Exploration Inc. as a strategic Newcastle shareholder. We expect to develop a
productive, long-term relationship with Trelawney, including the sharing of
insights with respect to Newcastle's Swayze Belt claims to help us realize the
full potential of our projects."


Each unit consists of one common share and one-half of one warrant. Each full
warrant, in turn, entitles the holder to purchase an additional common share at
a price of $0.10 until March 5, 2013. The units are subject to a hold period
expiring July 6, 2012.


Newcastle's 100% owned Swayze belt claims cover an area of 17,000 acres in three
separate claim blocks that are either surrounded by or adjoin Trelawney Mining
and Exploration. A spring exploration program is currently being planned that
will include geophysical surveys and diamond drilling to follow up on
encouraging results from earlier prospecting and sampling that was completed
this past November.
