Hathor Receives Mineral Lease for Roughrider

VANCOUVER, April 5 /PRNewswire/ -- Terra Ventures Inc. (TSXV: TAS) is pleased to provide an update on the Midwest Northeast Uranium property in which Terra owns a 10% production carried interest. In a press release dated April 5, 2011, Hathor reported:

          'Hathor Exploration Limited (TSX:HAT) is pleased to announce that it
          has received three Mineral Leases from the Saskatchewan government
          covering its Roughrider uranium deposit located in the Athabasca
          Basin.  This is a major milestone for not only the project, but also
          the 35 year mining district.

           

          The Roughrider uranium deposit was discovered in 2008 on the Midwest
          Northeast Property, which was comprised of three mineral claims
          covering 543 ha. The largest claim, S-107243, was staked in 2004 and
          covers 502 hectares.  Exploration and mining in Saskatchewan is
          governed by the Mineral Disposition Regulations, 1986,administered by
          the Mines Branch of the Saskatchewan Ministry of Energy and
          Resources.  There are two key land tenure milestones that must be met
          in order for commercial production to occur in Saskatchewan: 1.
          Conversion of a Mineral Claim to Mineral Lease, and; 2. Granting of a
          Mining Lease to cover the specific area within a Mineral Lease where
          mining is to occur.  Hathor has successfully achieved the first
          milestone for Roughrider and the Midwest Northeast Property:
          conversion to a mineral lease.

           

          This is also a significant milestone for the Athabasca Basin, the
          preeminent high grade uranium district in the world, with more than
          35 years of mining history from 5 operations.  Government of
          Saskatchewan records show that the last mineral lease issued for a
          uranium project in the Athabasca Basin was in 1985.

           

          As shown on
          Figure 1,
          the Roughrider project is located favourably for cost-effective
          exploration and mining.  It is connected to Highway 955 by a 6 km
          winter road.  The property is 8.5 km north of the community of Points
          North and the Points North commercial airport, the main service hub
          for northeastern Saskatchewan.  It is within 25 km of operating
          uranium mine, mill and tailings facilities established at Rabbit Lake
          and McClean Lake during the past 35 years of production in the
          Athabasca.

           

          Terra Ventures Inc. owns a qualified 10% interest in the largest
          lease on the Property, carried to the completion of a positive
          feasibility study and public announcement of intention to go into
          commercial production.
