Allana Potash Clarifies Earlier Press Release

TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 06/10/10 -- Allana Potash Corp. (TSX VENTURE: AAA) ('Allana' or the 'Company') would like to clarify certain elements of its press release from yesterday June 9, 2010 which it believes resulted in the unusual and unwarranted trading activity in the Company's common shares. Allana has engaged Meridian Drilling to complete 10,000 metres of additional drilling on its Ethiopian potash project. This drilling is in addition to the Phase I program (2500 m -3000 m) and has been part of the overall program announced by the company in its presentations and other public communications. The drilling will be done in conjunction with 2 D and down hole seismic surveys and is part of the Phase II drilling program designed to establish sufficient resource to support a feasibility study. A second drill rig and equipment capable of drilling to a depth of 800 metres are being mobilized out of the UK and the program will continue with two drill rigs to completion.

The Phase I drilling program is progressing on the project and hole DK-10-03 was recently completed to a depth of approximately 208 m. The drill rig is currently drilling hole DK-10-04 in the centre part of the basin. In this area, two Parsons drill holes intersected thick (approx. 45 m) zones of potash mineralization at a depth of approximately 650 metres. Hole DK-10-03 has been logged, sampled and the samples have been shipped to the lab for analyses.

In addition, Allana wishes to clarify the timing of the issuance of laboratory analyses for holes DK-10-01 and DK-10-02. The results of the analyses of DK-10-01 and DK-10-02 will be released as soon as the evaluations are completed which should be within a few days. Samples from DK-10-03 are only currently being shipped from Ethiopia to Saskatoon, and likely to arrive in the lab next week. The evaluation and analysis of DK-10-03 will take approximately two weeks from today and the Company will release the results as soon as they are available.

Farhad Abasov, President and CEO, commented: 'Allana management has decided to issue this clarification in response to many inquiries received from our valued shareholders. We expect to release the assay results for Holes 1 and 2 early next week. The drill program is going full speed with the successful drilling of the fourth hole. We anticipate the samples from the third hole to arrive in the lab next week, and we will announce the results once they are received. The 10,000-meter program is a previously announced and planned phase II drilling program, and is a very positive development for the company as we are on track with our development program.'
