NEWS RELEASE - November 19, 2002
WARRANT EXPIRY DATE EXTENDED
IMA Exploration Inc. has agreed, subject to acceptance from the TSX Venture
Exchange, to amend the expiry dates for 1,237,800 warrants from December 18,
2002 and 382,200 warrants from January 29, 2003 to March 31, 2003.
To assist with the Company's market awareness and investor relations activities
throughout North America, effective November 4, 2002, IMA has retained Raven
Capital ("Raven") of Vancouver, BC, owned and operated by Mr. Jack Barnes. The
Company has signed a three-month term contract with Raven at a fee of $10,000
for the first month and $7,500 for each of the remaining months. The contract
can be cancelled by either party giving fifteen days notice to the other.
IMA is a pioneer and veteran of Argentina's mining exploration industry and is
well positioned to take advantage of highly prospective gold projects as they
become available. The Company's network of contacts has been developed over the
past 10 years, enabling IMA to quickly identify new opportunities and negotiate
advantageous terms, especially since the recent devaluation of the Argentine
peso.
