VANCOUVER, Oct. 15 /CNW/ - PMI Gold Corporation (TSX/V:PMV) - Douglas
MacQuarrie, President, announces that further to the Company's news release
dated September 17, 2007 the Company has received TSX Venture Exchange
approval and has closed the transaction with Nevsun Africa (Barbados) Ltd.,
("Nevsun"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Nevsun Resources Ltd., of Canada, to
purchase Nevsun's Kubi Gold Project, located 20 kilometres south of the
AngloGold Ashanti Obuasi mine and 46 kilometres southeast of our Obotan
project.

PMI Gold has issued 9,000,000 common shares to Nevsun at a deemed price
of $0.30 per share. There is a four month hold period expiring February 13,
2008.

As a result of the above transaction, Nevsun has advised PMI that it will
own 9,000,000 common shares (the "Shares"), representing approximately 11.6%
of the Company's issued and outstanding share capital. Nevsun has further
advised that it has no present intention of acquiring any additional
securities of PMI.

The balance of the purchase price of US$3 million will be paid within 6
months of closing in cash and or additional shares, at PMI's option, subject
to ensuring that any such additional issuance of shares does not increase
Nevsun's ownership to 20% or more of the outstanding common shares of PMI. The
purchase agreement also provides that for a period of two years Nevsun will
vote the Shares in favour of any proposal made by management of PMI. However,
Nevsun may sell any or all of the Shares at any time subject to PMI having a
right to purchase Shares offered in excess of 500,000 per calendar month. In
addition, the purchase agreement provides that Nevsun may name a nominee as a
director of PMI.
