Makena Resources Inc. (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:MKN) wishes to announce that it has received TSX Venture approval regarding the agreement for the Patterson group of claims prospective for uranium. This acquisition consists of three claim blocks totaling 6,687 hectares (16,524 acres) which are all located in the Athabasca Basin.

The other two blocks are in the direct vicinity of the discovery (please refer to maps on the Company's website www.makenaresourcesinc.com). Management is anticipating the start of operations on this new project in October of 2013.

Conrad Clemiss, director of Makena states, "We are pleased to receive approval for this new and exciting uranium prospect bordering one of the most talked about new uranium discoveries on the globe. Management is planning to initiate an aggressive work plan in October as we develop this new prospect. When you couple the fact that the new project borders the PLS discovery with the initiation of our work program and that we are currently the smallest market capitalized company bordering the discovery, it is clearly an exciting period of corporate growth for Makena."
