MONTREAL, QUEBEC–(Marketwire – Nov. 16, 2010) – MDN Inc. (TSX:MDN) (“MDN”) reports the assay results for four holes (IKD-44, 46, 47 and 48) of its drilling program currently underway on the Ikungu gold property in Tanzania. All widths mentioned in this press release are true widths.

Holes IKD-47, IKD-48 and IKD-44, drilled to a depth of approximately 300 metres, returned higher grades and increased MDN’s confidence in the continuity and direction of plunge of the zones and their indications of high grade.

Combined with earlier holes, these deeper holes outline areas where many of the intersections are greater than 10 g/t -m (see attached longitudinal section).

Drill results released today:

• IKD-48 intercepted two zones that returned 5.92 g/t Au over 3.06 metres and 3.11 g/t Au over 9.5 metres, including values of 10.83 g/t Au and 8.04 g/t Au. This intersection was at 380 m vertical depth in the axis of the southeast plunge of intersections from holes IKD-45 (8.60 g/t Au/14.7m), IKD-4 (6.74 g/t Au/2.4 m) and IKD-39 (19.26 g/t Au/1.5 m).
• IKD-44 intercepted 2.53 g/t over 6.1 metres at a vertical depth of 340 metres in the southeast plunge of IKD-35 (2.79 g/t Au / 6.5 m) and IKD-32 (8.02 g/t Au / 2.4 m) hole intersections.
• IKD-47 intersected 2.72 g/t Au over 8.42 metres. This intersection is interpreted as being in the southeast plunge of Hole IKD-33 (2.66 g/t Au / 5.36). These two most-westerly holes of the drilling program indicate that the structure widens to the west, and suggest the possibility of a more important area farther west that will be tested in the near future.
• The 2009 soil sampling results revealed two geochemical anomalies located 160 m and 440 m west of Hole IKD-33 respectively (sections 1570 E and 1210 E). These gold soil anomalies could be the surface signature of mineralized zones in the near-surface extensions of holes IKD-33 and 47.

Holes IKD-49, IKD-50 and IKD-51 are now being sampled. RC-type holes have been added to the initial program and are presently being drilled to test one of the more westerly gold soil anomalies.

“We have now identified zones with continuity at depth along the southeast plunge, and will be proceeding with definition drilling with the intent of announcing a resource estimate in 2011. The structure also remains open along strike in both directions, which means good potential for the discovery of new zones,” said Marc Boisvert, Ing, MDN’s Vice President of Exploration.

Results for holes IKD-44,46,47 and 48:

(1) Note: Core length

Central Sector

Note: the distance between holes SIK5 (near surface) and IKD 48 (the deepest to date, with a vertical depth of about 400 m) indicates that the central sector zone has a southeast plunge of over 740 m. There is a horizontal distance of 700 m between holes SIK5 and IKD-35. Five of the 12 holes drilled in this 740 by 700-m area returned intersections of at least 6 g/t Au over 2 metres.

East Sector

Note: The structure has not been tested by drilling between Hole IKD-36 (13.22 g/t Au over 4.1 m) eastward to the contact with the granite, a distance of over 400m. Eight of the 11 holes drilled in this area returned intersections averaging more than 3 g/t Au.

The samples were analysed by fire assay at the SGS Laboratory of Mwanza, Tanzania, which is certified according to international standards. A rigorous quality analysis verification program implemented by MDN included 10% control samples. The technical and scientific information contained in this press release has been reviewed by Marc Boisvert, engineering geologist and Vice President, Exploration, who acts as a qualified person in accordance with National Instrument 43-101.
