Long Harbour Drops Don Lake Option and Updates on New Uranium Acquisitions

Long Harbour Exploration Corp. (TSX VENTURE:LHC) (the "Company") reports that it
is not proceeding with an agreement, announced March 8, 2011, with U.S. Mine
Makers Inc. whereby the Company had been granted an option to acquire a 90%
interest in the Don Lake Property located in the Athabasca Basin.


The Company will continue building a uranium property portfolio of strong merit
throughout the Athabasca, with a current focus on the eastern and western basin
areas. To this end, it has recently announced the acquisition of a 100% interest
in the 2Z Lake ("2Z") and the Madison ("Madison") properties located at the
northeastern edge of the basin. An EM conductor and alteration was identified on
2Z during an exploration program when operated by Noranda Exploration in 1979.
The work program included geophysical studies and a diamond drill program, which
confirmed the presence of a conductor, alteration, and mineralization that is
unconformity related. The twenty hole 2,000 meter drill program sights several
drill holes encountering values of over 500 ppm, with one of the drill holes
encountering a maximum value of 800 ppm over a 30 cm interval. Basement-hosted
uranium has yet to be tested on the 2Z or Madison properties.


Madison is between, and within approximately 10 kilometers of, UEX's Horseshoe
and Raven deposits to the northeast and their West Bear deposit to the
southwest. Hathor's Milliken Creek project is beside 2Z on the west and is
situated approximately 26 km south-southeast from the richest uranium mine
development project in the world, the Cigar Lake ore body. The Company expects
future work programs to be modeled on recent basement hosted discoveries such as
Hathor's Roughrider deposit and Cameco's Millennium deposit. In addition to
seeking to acquire more properties in highly prospective areas of the basin, the
Company plans to undertake a geophysics work program on the 2Z property this
summer and establish targets for a winter drill program.


The technical information in this news release has been reviewed by Dr. Kent
Ausburn, PhD, a qualified person as defined in NI 43-101 and a director of the
Company.
