/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- The Company is pleased to announce that
it has received assay results from a 2,689 metres Reverse
Circulation (RC) drilling program conducted by MDN Northern Mining
(MDN) on its 102.9 km2 Nyantimba licenses 15 kilometres north of
the Tulawaka gold mine in Tanzania. In September and October of
2006, MDN tested several gold targets with 53 RC holes as a
follow-up to last year's Rotary Air Blast (RAB) program which
produced a significant discovery in the Viyonza zone. Commenting on
the latest results Tanzanian Royalty President, Jim Sinclair said:
"Last year's discovery by MDN and its subsequent enhancement with
further drilling is a testament to the company's exceptional
exploration capabilities and its bright prospects for the future."
The best intersections from the RC drill program as reported by MDN
are listed below.

The fact an RC drill rig was utilized for this phase of drilling
precludes the accurate determination of true width and orientation
of the mineralized intersections. According to MDN: "In a lateritic
environment, there is often secondary lateral dispersion of the
gold in the ferricrete, an indurated flat lying iron oxide-rich
unit near surface. Half of the intercepts in this program come from
surface dispersion in the ferricrete but the other intersections
come from primary quartz veins and altered host rocks." MDN
believes this feature indicates the presence of a significant gold
system in an area of 300 metres by 200 metres that is still open
and warrants further follow-up. Analysis Samples were analyzed by
fire assay at the Mwanza SGS laboratory (Tanzania). A systematic
program of analytical grade verification implemented by MDN
returned satisfactory results. Qualified Person The drilling was
carried out under the management of geologist Brian Lloyd, and
supervised by Dominique Fournier, Ph.D., who acted as a qualified
person in accordance with NI 43-101. Respectfully Submitted, "James
