East Asia Minerals Drills 0.18% Uranium Over 9.3 Metres In First
2007 Follow-Up Hole At Enger, Mongolia
======================================================================

VANCOUVER, B.C. -- Wednesday, November 7, 2007 -- East Asia Minerals
Corporation (TSXV-EAS) reports it has intersected high grade uranium
mineralization in its initial follow-up drilling to promising assays
encountered during the Company's 2006 drilling of its Enger project,
located 150 kilometres southeast of Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia.

This second pass drill program was designed to continue fences drilled
in 2006 and to explore for extensions to the uranium mineralization.
Previous East Asia drilling had confirmed the existence of uranium
mineralization recorded from historical Soviet work. Results from the
initial EAS drill holes significantly improved on grades and widths of
the mineralization reported by the Soviets, and demonstrated that the
mineralization remains open to the east, west and at depth.

Hole EN-2007-11, the initial hole of the 2007 campaign, was collared 36
metres south along section and up-dip of EN-2006-12. The hole was
completed at 211.17 metres depth and encountered 0.180% Uranium over
9.3 metres, including 0.574% Uranium over 2.0 metres, 0.143% Uranium
over 1.4 metres, and 0.282% Uranium over 0.8 metres. Uranium
mineralization occurs in Lower Cretaceous lignite bearing sediments and
as sub-horizontal horizons in rhyolite associated with fracture zones.
The section remains open up-dip to the south where it was tested by
hole EN-2007-13.

Drill Hole From (m) To (m) Interval (m) Uranium (%)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
EN-2007-11 90.4 92.9 2.5 0.038
----------------------------------------------------------------------
And 104.5 113.8 9.3 0.180
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Incl. 105.2 107.2 2.0 0.574
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Incl. 107.8 109.2 1.4 0.143
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Incl. 111.8 112.6 0.8 0.282
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Hole EN-2007-13 was drilled to 151.7 metres. Down hole radiometrics
and geological logging demonstrate the upper uranium target was
encountered between 33.37 to 60.72 metres depth as sub-horizontal
mineralized units within rhyolite, associated with a fracture zone.
Assays are pending.

Hole EN-2007-14 was collared in the southeast area of the mineralized
zone to test the remaining up-dip extension to multiple and strong
uranium intersections encountered along section EN-2006-01, 02 and 03.
These include 2.5 metres of 0.232 U3O8 in hole ENDD002 (June 26, 2006
news release) and 2.5 metres of 0.410 U3O8 in hole ENDD003 (July 6,
2006 news release). Although assays are pending, visual indications
and radiometrics indicate that the mineralization may have been faulted
off between EN-2007-14 and nearest hole EN-2006-03. The mineralization
continues down dip and remains open to the north of this four-hole
section.

The last hole of the follow-up program, EN-2007-15, was collared in the
southwest area of the mineralized zone to test the south and up-dip
extension to EN-2006-08. Results are pending.

The above reported uranium mineralization remains open, and following
receipt of all assays and detailed compilation further drilling will be
proposed. Additionally, there remain two untested radiometric
anomalies, in particular a south-southeast structural response
extending from the current drilling area, and a localized strong
radiometric response in the northeast quadrant of the property.

Michael Hawkins, President and CEO of East Asia Minerals Corporation,
commented that "although Enger is similar to the structural environment
of Western Prospector's Gurvanbulag deposit (22,679,160 lbs at 0.25%
U3O8), preliminary modeling demonstrates that Enger's rhyolite and
sedimentary setting compares well to the Streltsovka caldera hosted
uranium environment in eastern Russia's Transbaikkalia region, near the
Chinese-Mongolia border." Streltsovka hosts the world's largest
uranium deposits associated with a volcanic setting and is one of
Russia's largest resources of uranium metal. Over 600 million pounds
of U3O8 have been produced and current resources in 20 deposits
averages 0.2%. Like Enger, the uranium occurs primarily in altered
rhyolite as veins, and also (like Enger) stratigraphically in
sediments.

Elsewhere in the East Asia Minerals' uranium portfolio, results have
been received for the last two holes of the Ulaan Nuur property where
the Company reported multiple mineralized sections up to 0.205% Uranium
in drill hole UN002 (October 23, 2007 news release). The Company is
very pleased that the initial programs at the Ingiin Nars and Ulaan
Nuur projects have validated the historic Soviet reporting of
significant in-situ-leach (ISL) amenable uranium mineralization at both
properties (refer to October 23, 2007 news release).
