Nevsun Resources Ltd.: Milestone-First Gold Pour at Bisha

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Jan. 4, 2011) - Nevsun Resources Ltd. (TSX:NSU)(NYSE Amex:NSU) is pleased to announce its successful first gold pour at the Bisha Gold Mine during late December. The first pour was part of the plant commissioning process and rendered two dore bars totaling 26 kilograms (approx. 920 ounces).

President Cliff Davis stated, "Nevsun's first gold pour is a tremendous achievement that has been accomplished by a team of outstanding professionals on the ground in Eritrea and with the continued support of the Eritrean Government. It gives me great pleasure to say we are on time, under budget, and will considerably further the country's development with the realization of Eritrea's first modern day mine. In the face of difficult capital markets during 2008/2009 and other obstacles overcome in 2010, we are proud of this significant accomplishment. We look forward to substantially growing Bisha in the coming months, in terms of reserves and throughput. This success should be a good indicator of our strategic capability in the future."

Over the next few months, plant commissioning will continue to test, troubleshoot, and rectify any issues that arise. Nevsun anticipates the ramp up to full commercial production during the course of Q1 2011.
