VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Nov. 4, 2010) - TNR Gold Corp. ("TNR" or the "Company) (TSX VENTURE:TNR) advises that the litigation in the Supreme Court of British Columbia related to the Los Azules project in Argentina, involving TNR, Minera Andes Inc., MIM Argentina Exploraciones S.A. ("Xstrata") and related entities, has been joined for hearing and scheduled for a new trial date of June 20 – July 15, 2011. The trial will be held in Vancouver.
As disclosed in our May 17, 2010 press release, the subject of the legal actions is TNR's right to back-in to 25% of certain properties constituting the Los Azules project. The Los Azules project is an advanced exploration project currently reporting a National Instrument 43-101 compliant Inferred Resource. MAI and Xstrata are contesting TNR's ability to exercise its back-in right. TNR is vigorously pursuing its claim and opposing MAI's efforts to deny the back-in right.
We encourage interested parties to review the Amended Statement of Defence and Counterclaim in their entirety on our website for a better understating of our position. The link for this information is as follows:

The Statement of Defence and Counterclaim contain assertions that have been prepared solely for use in connection with the legal dispute with MAI and Xstrata, have not been proven and should, therefore, not be relied upon.
