Mega′s disciplined and proven exploration model continues to focus on:
(1) defining the economic potential and ultimate size of the mineralized
systems by systematic drilling along strike and down plunge; and (2)
searching for new gold zones within the auriferous grantic pluton
complex . See isometric view and drill plan of the Buffalo West
Extension Mineralization at www.megapmi.com/north_madsen_gallery.


In September 2011, Mega will be completing an updated NI 43-101 resource
that will include the Laverty Dyke Zone plus the other 6 mineralized
structures located within the North Madsen Project.


Mr. Jim Rogers commented 'Were pleased with the result of this ongoing
work program, the exploration upside continues. The drilling indicates
that extensions to mineralization remain consistent with previously
delineated mineralization of the deposit. Furthermore, the deposit
currently remains open in a number of directions, including the
potential for additional resource expansion on 4 of the 7 mineralized
structures. In addition to the expanded resources, we anticipate ongoing
announcements on additional project development milestones once we
finalize an updated NI 43-101 report for the property.?


Mega management believe that their Laverty and East My-Ritt properties
are all part of a much larger gold system that encompasses the adjacent
Howey, Hasaga and Gold Shore mines which historically produced
approximately 640,000 ounces of gold. Mega has an option to acquire a
100% interest in both Laverty and East My-Ritt properties.


The prolific Red Lake camp has produced more than 25 million ounces of
gold and production of about 700,000 ounces of gold per year continue as
the district's production base from Goldcorp's Red Lake Gold Mines. When
compared to other camps, Red Lake is still a young and developing camp
where consolidation, mechanization, improvements to processing
technology and 'Big Picture' economics will improve margins and drive
future success.
