MDN Inc.: New Results on Isambara

Market Wire,  August, 2007  

MDN Inc. ("MDN") (TSX: MDN) is pleased to announce new drilling results in Tanzania, for projects under MDN's control located in the surrounding area of the Tulawaka Gold Mine.

Firstly, the Isambara licence is currently the subject of a second phase of drilling, representing 4,000 meters by reversed circulation (RC) drillings and 2,000 meters by diamond drilling. To date, approximately 30% of the Isambara target, which measures 5 km by 2 km, has been covered by drilling.

Diamond drillings ISDD-01 to 05 (representing 755 m) were carried out in the principal mineralized zone, indicated as being the 'East Target', whereas drilling ISDD-06 (representing98m) was carried out on another target; the results of drillings ISDD-02, 03, 05 and 06 as well as a part of ISDD-01 are being analysed.

Available diamond drilling results are presented in the table below:

The mineralization in ISDD-01 and ISDD-02 is found in typical shear zones in the granodiorites. These shear zones are marked by multiple injections of quartz and strong alterations as well as at least two generations of sulphides, dominantly pyrite.

In addition, reversed circulation drillings ISRC-104 to 122 (representing 1,474 meters) tested new anomalies identified by ground sampling and by induced polarization surveys.

Drillings ISRC-123 to 128 (representing569 meters) tested the orientations of the East Target, whereas drillings ISRC-135, 136, 139 and 140 (representing378 meters) tested the extensions of the aforementioned target.
