The Lovitt Nutriceutical Corporation ("the Company") (TSX VENTURE:LNC) has been
evaluating its mining assets in Wenatchee WA for the past five months. The
Company owns, through 100% owned subsidiary the Lovitt Mining Company, Inc.
("LMC") patented claims known as the Lovitt Mine and a 70% to 100% interest in
the mineral rights in the surrounding 500 acres, subject to a 5% net smelter
royalty in favor of former minority shareholders of LMC. The Lovitt Mine ceased
production in 1967, with expenses rising and the price of gold fixed, after
producing 408,760 oz of gold and 628,069 oz of silver over the previous 17 year
period, with an average grade of 0.40 oz of gold and 0.61 oz silver per ton. The
purpose of this mineral asset evaluation was to decide whether to sell the
mining and mineral assets or to concentrate future company effort and capital
towards further exploration and development of these mineral properties.


The company assessed the contents of the very considerable LMC archives,
including daily operational notes and over 1,000 surveyed underground maps
covering over seven miles of mine workings. In addition, after the mine closed
in 1967, Tenneco, Cyprus Anvil Exploration, Teck Corporation, and Asamera
Minerals (US) Inc. spent considerable funds exploring in and around the LMC
patented claims, which generated reams of engineering data. Consulting geologist
AA Burgoyne summarized this geological data in a non-compliant 43-101 filing
with the Vancouver Stock Exchange in 1996, and, in summary, reported a
geological gold resource of 423,000 ounces in 3,591,669 tons using cut-off
grades of 0.04 and 0.10 ounces per ton. No qualified person has done sufficient
work to classify this historical estimate as a current mineral resource, however
the company intends to file an updated independent 43-101 compliant report at
the earliest possible date.


In assessing the data, the Board of Directors of the Company have determined
that mine development and exploration offers the greatest opportunity for the
Company to enhance value for equity holders. A name change to Lovitt Resources
Inc. was approved by shareholders at the annual meeting June 12, 2008, and the
company has applied to the TSX Venture Exchange for a change in name to Lovitt
Resources Inc. and change in stock symbol in view of our change in focus to
mining. There is no change in control, management or Board of Directors in
connection with these matters.


Our Director James M. Proudfoot, P.Eng is the Qualified person as defined by NI
43-101, and has reviewed and approved the content of this press release.
