Midland Options its Valmond Gold Property to Donner Metals

Midland Exploration Inc. ("Midland") (TSX VENTURE:MD) is pleased to announce the
execution of a new option agreement with Donner Metals Limited ("Donner") for
its Valmond gold property, currently wholly owned by Midland. The Valmond
property consists of 62 claims covering a surface area of about 35 square
kilometres. This property is located about 50 kilometres west of the town of
Matagami, in Abitibi, Quebec. 


Under the terms of this new agreement, Donner may earn 50% of Midland's interest
over a period of four (4) years, by fulfilling the following conditions: 




--  Cash payments totalling $250,000, including a $20,000 payment upon
    signing the agreement; 
--  Exploration expenditures totalling $2,500,000, including a firm
    commitment of $300,000 during the first year. Midland will be project
    operator during the option period. 



The Valmond property covers, over more than 10 kilometres, an important
gold-bearing structure trending NW-SE, which hosts several historical gold
occurrences with drill intercepts grading 2.3 g/t Au over 4.57 metres and 5.22
g/t Au over 1.55 metres. This structure has seen very little exploration in the
past and the main showing known to date has been traced over more than 300
metres along strike. This gold showing is characterized by an extensive
hydrothermal alteration zone more than 70 metres wide, and remains open beyond
200 metres vertical depth, where the deepest drill hole yielded a grade of 3.77
g/t Au over 1.50 metres. In addition, a recent helicopter-borne magnetic survey
covering the entire property was used to generate a new detailed structural
interpretation and identify several new promising exploration targets.


Over the coming weeks, geophysical work including a ground-based induced
polarization survey (50 km) and a helicopter-borne electromagnetic survey (900
km) will be completed to define new drilling targets along the extensions of the
main gold occurrences.
