Kent Exploration Inc. (the "Company" or "Kent") (TSX VENTURE:KEX)(PINK
SHEETS:KXPLF)(FRANKFURT:7KX) reports that it has now developed two sources of
revenue from its Flagstaff Mine outside Northport, WA. Barite, a significant
additive to oil and gas well drilling fluids, and aggregates, a byproduct from
the barite mining, and notes the significance of cash flow in the current
economic environment.


Despite the turmoil in the general markets, the barite market appears to remain
strong in North America with barite delivery to the oil and gas sector appearing
to be in undersupply. Since announcing commencement of barite mining operations,
the Company has received inquiries from prospective purchasers from North
America and as far afield as Dubai for the supply of approximately 2.5 times the
Flagstaff mine's maximum permitted production of 100,000 tons of barite per
year.


The Company has commenced selling aggregate from the mine to the local market at
US$10.50/ton at the mine gate. Waste rock from mining the barite would normally
be moved around and stored on site as an expense and selling it as aggregate
reduces a cost against barite operations.


The company has entered into a contract with Albar Industrial Minerals for the
supply of a minimum 20,000 tons of barite at 4.1 SG per annum at the mine gate,
with the price based upon the US Geological Survey annual price survey. For
2011, that price is US$54/ton at the mine gate.


The Company anticipates that any positive cash flow from the barite and
aggregate sales will be used for general corporate purposes and exploring the
Company's Alexander River, Lyell, and Paparoa gold projects in New Zealand.


At the AGM held September 22 at the Company's offices, Graeme O'Neill, Michael
England, John Cerenzia, Corey Klassen and Dr. Clay M. Conway, a Qualified Person
as recognized by National Instrument NI-43-101, were elected as directors of the
Company.
