Cedar Mountain Stakes Entire Kelly Creek Gold Trend

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION IN THE UNITED STATES OR THROUGH U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES

Cedar Mountain Exploration Inc. (TSX VENTURE:CED) ("Cedar") is pleased to
announce that it has completed its initial work program on the Kelly Creek
Project and has expanded its land package to cover 89,600 acres (36,260
hectares) of prospective structure and stratigraphy contiguous with the historic
Kelly Creek Prospect.


"The Kelly Creek Project is a newly identified, highly prospective
district-scale gold target," stated Charles Chebry, President and CEO of Cedar.
"Our initial grassroots program during 2010 has delineated the magnitude of the
target and Cedar has secured a land position which now covers the entire extent
of the known gold trend."


The 2010 program was multi-phased and comprised:



--  detailed soil sampling over the known Kelly Creek gold anomalies; 
--  upgrading gold anomalies from occurrences to prospects; 
--  generation of drill targets for the 2011 exploration season; and 
--  evaluation and prospecting of the entire 30 kilometre Kelly Creek Gold
    Trend. 



Sampling and prospecting on the Kelly Creek Property was focused on four known
gold bearing occurrences (Bear, Fox, Wolf, and Wolverine) located by
reconnaissance sampling during 2007. In 2010, soil samples were tested by a XRF
instrument, indicating pathfinder elements arsenic and antimony associated with
gold at the Kelly Creek Prospect are present in anomalous concentrations
throughout the sampled area. In total 1,729 samples, primarily soils were
collected during the program and have been submitted to ALS Laboratories for
gold and multi-element analysis.


Geological mapping, soil and stream sampling were conducted to the south of the
present Kelly Creek Property along extensions of the favorable stratigraphic
assemblage. Early indications from field examinations and portable XRF analyses
of soils and stream sediments indicate that gold pathfinder elements are widely
distributed along permissive stratigraphic and structural contacts, similar to
those seen at the Kelly Creek prospect. In order to secure the newly identified
prospective trend, Cedar has staked additional ground contiguous to the 32,640
acres (13,209 hectares) Kelly Creek Property. This staking brings the total
claims on the property to 560 covering 89,600 acres (36,260 hectares). 


The primary target on the Kelly Creek property is a near surface, bulk tonnage
meta sedimentary-hosted gold deposit analogous to those located in the Carlin
Trend of Nevada. Limited soil and stream sediment sampling programs conducted in
the past have identified several prospects within the bounds of the property
consisting of coincident gold (Au), arsenic (As), antimony (Sb), and mercury
(Hg) anomalies. At the Kelly Creek prospect, a coherent gold-in-soil anomaly
with continuous elevated gold assays of greater than 25 parts per billion was
traced for more than 2 km and remains open to the south and west. In 1984,
Anaconda Minerals Co. completed three small diameter drill holes totaling 140
metres within a portion of the anomalous area. This drilling produced intercepts
of 1.07 g/t over 23.5 metres and 0.83 g/t over 32 metres. This anomalous area is
largely untested and remains open in all directions.


This region of the Seward Peninsula was not glaciated during the last ice age
and soil horizons containing elevated Au, As, Sb, and Hg assays are developed
near to mineralized host rocks. As a result, soil sampling is highly effective
in identifying and delineating priority drill targets along the mineralized
trends.


The Property 

The Kelly Creek Property is located on the Seward Peninsula 90 to 150 km north
of Alaska's prolific Nome mining district. Kelly Creek is a drill-permitted
early-stage gold exploration property comprising 89,600 acres (36,260 hectares).
Historic results indicate the presence of disseminated gold deposits in
calcareous and carbonaceous metasedimentary rocks originally deposited in
shelfal settings. The deposits have several characteristics similar to deposits
in the Carlin Trend of Nevada. 


The Company's disclosure of a technical or scientific nature in this press
release has been reviewed and approved by Peter Kleespies, P.Geol. who serves as
a Qualified Person under the definition of National Instrument 43-101. The Kelly
Creek project represents an early stage property and does not contain any
mineral resources as defined by National Instrument 43-101.
