VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA / TheNewswire / December 0 5 , 2016 - Nevada Clean Magnesium, Inc. (TSXV: NVM; Frankfurt-M1V; OTC Pink Sheets: MLYFF) (The "Company") wishes to provide an update on the progress of constructing the bench scale pilot furnace being done in Fort St John, BC. by Lindon Enterprises Ltd.

After the recent successful completion of the test work from to U of C regarding the use of both the ferrosilicon and the alternate reductant, a major part required for the proof of concept, the fabrication of the furnace is proceeding on schedule. The refractory base was poured and is currently being baked out to remove all moisture. It is expected that the inner liner will be poured and in bake out by early next week. All the raw materials needed are mustered at the furnace site. The dolomite was obtained from the drilling rejects stored in Reno, Nevada which originated from the 2007/08 exploration programs. The company is currently awaiting the arrival of the vacuum pump and completion of the cooling system. These should be complete within two weeks. A picture of the base refractory can be viewed at http://nevadacmi.com/investors/furnace-dec-2016/december-2016 .

The company plans to begin the test runs in early January 2017.

Jim Sever COO stated, "This equipment will provide additional engineering data, while producing a significant quantity of magnesium and co products to be used as samples for developing the market. A major area of focus will be to define the cycle time and assess the condenser performance."

Ed Lee CEO states, "It's exciting to be in a position to finally test proof of concept by utilizing our designed furnace in order to produce an ingot from the Tami Mosi property. The furnace has been on hold pending the outcome of the test work that was completed at the University of Colorado which confirmed some of the original benefits identified by the NCM team, so I am glad we held back a bit as the modifications made since has resulted in saving the company time and money".
