Oct 27, 2015 at 18:38 comment added David E Speyer @JasonStarr Just to check, your comment is about effective divisor classes, right? Because everything else in the question and Michael's answer applies to effective classes in any dimension, but I believe that Nakajima's smooth proper nonprojective 3-fold has lines in the cone of effective curve classes.
Jun 13, 2012 at 15:04 comment added Jason Starr Properness is sufficient. By Chow's Lemma, there exists a projective, birational morphism from a projective variety to the original variety. Under pullback by a birational morphism, effectivity is preserved (hence so is pseudo-effectivity). So for a class $\beta$ as above, the pullback is numerically trivial. In other words, for every curve in the blowup, the image curve in the original variety has $0$ pairing with $\beta$. However, every integral curve in the original variety is the (finite-to-one) image of a curve in the blowup. So $\beta$ is numerically trivial.
