CLP Calypso Uranium Corp.

CALYPSO URANIUM CORP. (TSX VENTURE: CLP) ("Calypso" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the Company has signed an Option Agreement (the "Agreement") with Cameco Global Exploration Ltd. ("Cameco Global"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cameco Corporation ("Cameco"), to explore and develop Calypso's uranium projects in Argentina with the exception of the Huemul property in the Province of Mendoza which will be retained by Calypso. The Agreement will be completed through an equity investment by Cameco Global in Calypso's wholly-owned subsidiary Energia Mineral Inc. ("Energia Mineral"). The Agreement was signed on September 21, 2010, following the Letter of Intent announced in the Company's news release of April 13, 2010.

Under the terms of the Agreement, Calypso has granted Cameco Global the option to acquire a 51% interest in Energia Mineral by Cameco Global investing a total of C$9,000,000 in Energia Mineral's Argentine uranium properties, over a maximum three-year period. During the first year of the Agreement, Cameco Global has committed to fund C$3,000,000 of Energia Mineral's agreed exploration and development programs. The decision to proceed with a further $3,000,000 in exploration in years two and three is at Cameco Global's discretion.

The Energia Mineral project areas included in the Agreement cover approximately 442,542 hectares and include the La Pintada, Ranquil Co, Central Block, Campesino Norte and San Jorge Basin projects.

"We are excited to have Cameco, a recognized uranium industry leader as our partner in our exploration activities in Argentina. Their extensive experience in all aspects of exploration, development and production will significantly strengthen the development of our projects over the medium and long term," said Stephen Barley, President of Calypso.

Under the terms of the Agreement, Energia Mineral will continue to lead exploration activities during the option period based on exploration proposals approved by a joint technical committee. In the event Cameco Global exercises its option and acquires a 51% interest in Energia Mineral, Cameco Global has the right but not the obligation to become the operator.

Guillermo Pensado, Vice President Exploration of Calypso and President of Energia Mineral, said, "The signing of this agreement is a testament to the quality of the properties the Company has assembled in areas of Argentina with high uranium potential, and we look forward to working with Cameco through the joint technical committee to deliver the agreed exploration program."
