    VANCOUVER, May 9 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - The company is pleased to
announce today that it has concluded an agreement with a Tanzanian National
who holds the mineral rights to four Prospecting Licenses (PL's). The PL's
cover an area of 430 square kilometers, and are situated in Mbwemkuru in
the Lindi Region in Southeastern Tanzania.

    The area is situated in the SE margin of the Karoo Basin, where there
is an interland paleo basin comprising greater than 10 meters of gold
bearing gravel and sandy material. The property is currently in small scale
production by the current owner. One of the most significant prospects
being a 8 km by 2km block, with high gold concentrations within 1.0 and 1.5
meter zones between the gravel's and the bedrock. Another zone, a 3 by 4
kilometer block, is covered by over 9 meters thick of gravel and sandy
material from surface to bedrock. In order to determine the upside
potential pertaining to these placer deposits situated in this block a
systematic exploration program is planned to commence on June 1, 2008.

potential.
