The dividend is payable on January 15, 2012 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on December 31, 2011. This is the Company's second dividend after declaring its first dividend in May 2011.

"We are focused on generating cash flow from operations and expanding
reserves at Bisha, while reviewing growth opportunities for Nevsun. With
$227 million cash at quarter end and significant ongoing cash flow, Nevsun
is well positioned to fund growth and provide a dividend return to our
shareholders." said Cliff Davis, CEO. He went on to comment, "Today's
increased dividend further differentiates Nevsun from its peer group and
demonstrates our confidence in future cash flow."
