Nice. They make FR look like a laggard. <vbg> Only up 7%. Let's see how the HUI closes.

MIDLAND EXPLORATION AND NORTH AMERICAN PALLADIUM REPORT A NEW GOLD DISCOVERY ON LAFLAMME

Midland Exploration Inc. has discovered in a drill hole a new significant gold zone on its Laflamme property, a joint venture with North American Palladium Ltd. This new discovery comes in the wake of the recent announcement of a nickel-copper-platinum-group-element discovery in the eastern part of the property. The two new discoveries will be targeted shortly with a follow-up ground-based geophysical survey to investigate their strike extensions. The Laflamme project, a joint venture with North American Palladium, which is acting as project operator, is located about 25 kilometres west of the town of Lebel-sur-Quevillon in the Abitibi region of Quebec.

New significant gold discovery

Drill hole LA-11-11, recently completed in the western part of the Laflamme property, intersected a new gold-bearing zone grading 9.71 grams per tonne (g/t) gold over 1.0 metre, from 150.0 to 151.0 metres. This gold-bearing structure is hosted in gabbro and is characterized by an altered shear zone exhibiting quartz veinlets with 2-to-3-per-cent-pyrite mineralization. Farther down this drill hole, another zone of quartz-tourmaline-pyrite veins returned 1.1 g/t gold over 1.0 metre between 297.6 and 298.6 metres.

The hole was drilled to test a weak airborne MegaTEM anomaly in the western part of the property. This new gold-bearing structure is entirely untested in all directions and is located in an unexplored area of the property. Detailed ground-based geophysical surveys, namely a magnetic survey and an induced polarization survey, will be undertaken very shortly to test the strike extensions of this significant gold discovery.
