Medallion Resources Announce Extension of MOUs

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Sep 8, 2014) - Medallion Resources Ltd (TSX VENTURE:MDL)(OTCQB:MLLOF)(FRANKFURT:MRD) ("Medallion" or the "Company") today announced that it has once again completed extensions of the existing Memorandums of Understanding (the "MOUs") with Oman-based Takamul Investment Company ("Takamul") and Jordan-based Arab Mining Company ("Arab Mining").

The MOUs commit the partners to investigating the viability of financing, constructing and operating a monazite-based, rare-earth production project in the Gulf States. The Takamul MOU outlines a specific joint-venture structure, upon acceptance of viability of the project, while the Arab Mining MOU is open to the terms of a definitive agreement. The most recent extensions will assist in the completion of the project's technical and environmental studies and its financial assessment, as the Company works to solidify monazite-feedstock agreements.

Medallion's MOU with Takamul, which was originally signed June 16, 2013, has been extended until March 30, 2015, and includes an important amendment related to exclusivity. Under the new terms, Medallion can hold discussions and negotiations and reach agreements with other partners, in countries within the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states but outside of Oman, to advance its proposed rare-earth production project. Takamul remains the Company's exclusive development partner in the Sultanate of Oman.

Arab Mining and Medallion have also agreed to a further 90-day extension of their MOU which was originally signed on June 6, 2013, and has been extended until September 30, 2014, facilitating the parties' pursuit of rare-earth production and processing opportunities within the Arab League nations.
