A drill hole location map is attached and posted on the Company's website. Ronald L. Parratt, Certified Professional Geologist, is the Company's designated Qualified Person for this news release. Drilling activity currently underway at Long Canyon includes 5 drill rigs conducting primarily resource definition and resource expansion mostly in the northeastern portion of the deposit. To date more than 99,000 feet (30,000 meters) of drilling has been completed of a planned 149,000 feet (45,000 meters). Current work also includes a 6 inch core program to source material for further metallurgical test work. This material will supplement four, 15 ton samples which were recovered from outcrop earlier this year. All of this material will be used for further column leach testing to confirm gold recoveries. Metallurgical test work completed to date indicates that mineralization is treatable using conventional gold recovery techniques. The growing Long Canyon gold deposit consists of multiple, sub-parallel northeast-directed zones of oxidized Carlin-style gold mineralization aggregating 800 to 1,000 feet (240 to 300 meters) in width with a current strike length of approximately 1.70 miles (2.7 km) that remains open to extension. Mineralization outcrops in the central portion of the deposit, plunges shallowly to the northeast and is amenable to open pit mining. In addition, significant untested exploration potential is still apparent within the 12,000 acre property based on geological mapping and surface sampling. As reported to AuEx by Fronteer Gold, 51% owner and operator, all drill samples were collected following standard industry practice and assayed by ALS Chemex of Reno, Nevada. Gold results were determined using standard fire assay techniques on a 30 gram sample with an atomic absorption finish. Samples exceeding 5 grams per tonne gold were re-assayed using a gravimetric finish and the values received were reported in the averages. QA/QC included the insertion of numerous standards and blanks into the sample stream, and a check assaying program that is underway at another laboratory. A table containing all drill results to date using a 0.3 gram/tonne cutoff is posted on the Company's website. All data, as reported to the Company by Fronteer and disclosed in this press release, including sampling, analytical and test data, have been reviewed by the Company's qualified person Mr. Eric M. Struhsacker, M.Sc., and Certified Professional Geologist as recognized by the American Institute of Professional Geologists. Further details concerning the Long Canyon property are described in the Company's National Instrument 43-101 report filed on Sedar and posted on the Company's website at www.auex.com. AuEx Ventures, Inc. is a TSX listed precious metals exploration company that has a current portfolio of twenty one exploration projects in Nevada/Utah, one project in Spain and four projects in Argentina. The Company controls about 167,000 acres of unpatented mining claims and fee land in Nevada. Fifteen of the projects are in joint venture or exploration earn-in agreements with eight companies. The Company applies the extensive Nevada exploration experience and high-end technical skills of its founders to search for and acquire new precious metal exploration projects that are then offered for joint venture.

| Mon Jun 28, 2010 Long Canyon Metallurgical Results | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
AuEx Ventures, Inc. ("AuEx" or the "Company") is pleased to report that more detailed metallurgical tests confirm the recovery rate of the mineralization at Long Canyon is amendable to low-cost conventional, heap leach processing. Long Canyon is an emerging oxide gold deposit located in northeast Nevada.
Hydraulic conductivity measurements were two orders of magnitude higher than typical heap percolation rates indicating that no solution flow problems are anticipated for any of the composites tested. The composites did not respond well to flotation or gravity concentration likely owing to its totally oxidized nature and lack of any significant elemental gold. Comminution tests showed that the composites have low hardness and abrasion index numbers, compared to the majority of gold milling operations processing whole rock material around the world. Low energy input and low materials wear rates are expected if a mill is needed for processing all or a portion of the Long Canyon resource. As part of the $19.8-million development/exploration program aggressive resource definition and expansion continues at Long Canyon with six drill rigs currently operating on site and at least 45,000 metres of drilling planned, with an emphasis on resource definition and resource expansion. In addition the required metallurgical, engineering, and environmental work necessary to move Long Canyon to pre-feasibility stage will be conducted. Fronteer is majority owner (51%) and operator of Long Canyon in joint-venture with the Company (49%). Ronald L. Parratt, Certified Professional Geologist, is the Company's designated Qualified Person for this news release.

Other significant results reported in this release include:
Commenting on these results, Ronald L. Parratt, President & CEO of AuEx stated "this is a very strong start to the year's drill results. The NE corridor certainly is providing the best grade-thickness holes to date and is not shut off. Also the discovery of a new parallel zone attests to the potential growth of this deposit and the Pequop Gold District in general." These holes are additive to the growing Pequop Gold District which now includes defined resources at the Company's 49% owned West Pequop and Long Canyon projects.
True widths of the mineralized intervals will be determined by geologic modeling. The intercept calculations use a cut-off grade of 0.30 g/t gold. Results less than 1 g/t are not reported in this press-release table. "C" indicates core holes.

| Thu Jun 3, 2010 Initial West Pequop Gold Resource | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| AuEx Ventures, Inc. ("AuEx" or the "Company") is pleased to report this first resource estimate for the Company's 49% owned West Pequop Joint Venture located within the new Pequop Gold District in eastern Elko County, Nevada. The resource estimate, on a 100% basis, includes the Section 34, Acrobat and Mountain Top gold deposits and incorporates drilling completed through the end of 2009. All three gold deposits are located within a four square mile area. In addition, the Long Canyon deposit (reported on May 19, 2010 in press release NR10-12) on adjoining property to the east creates a significant district resource with near and long term growth potential. West Pequop JV The combined Classified Mineral Resource estimate for all three deposits is quoted at a cut-off grade of 0.3 grams per tonne and consists of;
The resources for each of the three deposits at West Pequop are shown below at additional cutoffs in order to provide grade-distribution information.
The West Pequop project is subject to a joint venture agreement with Agnico-Eagle (USA) Limited, currently 51% owner and operator. Agnico-Eagle is solely funding exploration at present to earn an additional 19% undivided interest (for a total of 70%) in the project. Exploration drilling for the 2010 field season has just commenced and Agnico-Eagle plans to expend approximately $3,250,000 in further exploration at West Pequop. This will consist of step out drilling to test new exploration targets defined during 2009 and infill drilling to expand and possibly connect the known deposits. At least 50,000 feet of drilling is expected to be completed during 2010 at the project. The West Pequop mineral resource estimate is as of May 13, 2010. The mineral resources estimate was completed by SRK Consultants of Tucson, Arizona and Denver, Colorado. The resources were modeled and estimated by evaluating the drill data statistically and utilizing two-dimensional lithologic strings provided by Agnico-Eagle to interpret mineral domains on cross sections spaced at 40 meter intervals throughout the extent of the Section 34, 25 meters on Acrobat and variably through the Mountain Top mineralization. The modeled mineralization database was analyzed statistically to establish estimation parameters. Gold grades were estimated by inverse-distance methods into a block model with 10 meter (width) x 10 meter (length) x 6 meter (height) blocks that were constrained to the mineral domains using Datamine Studio3 mining software. Quality-control data generated during the various drill programs conducted at West Pequop were independently reviewed by SRK as part of the resource study. The persons responsible for the resource estimate on behalf of SRK are Allan V. Moran, Reg. Geo. and Frank Daviess, MAusIMM, Qualified Persons as defined by National Instrument 43-101. Further details of the estimation procedure will be available in an updated NI 43-101 report, which will be posted on SEDAR (http://www.sedar.com/), no later than 45 days from the date of this release. The state of exploration for West Pequop is too early to justify estimating in-pit resources. SRK has estimated and is reporting an in-situ total resource rather than the preferred option of reporting an in-pit resource, primarily because the resources are largely Inferred by classification, and due to the insufficiency of potential mining and processing characterizations. In reporting the resource at a 0.3 g/t Au cutoff, SRK's opinion is that the mineralization has the potential for economic extraction at current gold prices. Indicated resources are based solely on density of drillhole data and the number of composites within a specified distance from an estimated block. Additional conversion of "Inferred" to "Indicated" will require in-fill drilling and "in-pit" analysis to confirm potential mineability for each deposit. Ronald L. Parratt, Certified Professional Geologist, is the Company's designated Qualified Person for this news release. He has reviewed the information contained in the release and confirmed that it is consistent with that provided by the independent QP's responsible for the resource estimate.
