Mustang Drilling at East Bull
TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - May 12, 2008) - Mustang Minerals Corp.(TSX VENTURE:MUM)(FRANKFURT:NJF) today announced that it has commenced drilling and has encountered mineralization at the East Bull Lake Property west of Sudbury Ontario. The Company is targeting platinum group metals-nickel-copper mineralization at the Property. A program of 1,000 meters of diamond drilling is planned in the first phase.
Mustang has held unpatented mining claims through option agreements covering the East Bull Lake Intrusion since 1998. The East Bull Lake Property has been the source of considerable fieldwork and drilling by Mustang and other exploration companies as well as work completed by the Ontario Geological Survey. Previous work by Mustang has concentrated primarily on disseminated platinum group metal mineralization along the contact of the intrusion. A 1993 Ontario Geological Survey Report (Open File Report 5849. Peck, James Chubb et al) concluded that the "potential exists for extremely large tonnages of sulphide mineralization, perhaps even massive sulphides (along the floor of the intrusion), which have platinum-group element-enrichment levels equating to reef environments."
Mustang completed a Geotech VTEM heliborne geophysical survey over the East Bull Lake Property in 2007. In March 2008 Mustang had geophysical analysis and interpretation of the VTEM data completed, supervised by Caracle Creek Consulting of Sudbury Ontario. The interpretation of the VTEM data identified several priority targets for drilling including several large deep seated EM conductors which are of interest in light of the geological target of sulphide accumulations along the margins of the intrusion.
The current program will target a geophysical VTEM conductor located near an area of near surface mineralization at the Parisien Lake Deformation Zone ("PLDZ"). The VTEM targets coincide with targets generated by a ground IP survey previously completed by Mustang but which were not previously drilled. Maximum metal concentrations noted in Open File Report 5849 collected from forty-three select grab samples of sulphide mineralization from surface exposures at the PLDZ contained maximum 2890 ppb Palladium, 1060 ppb Platinum, 860 ppb Gold, 14.5% copper and 1.6% nickel.
Multiple meter scale bands of disseminated mineralization were encountered in the second hole of the present drill program. Also present in the core was net textured sulphides and a meter of massive sulphide. Assays will be reported as soon as possible from the program. Additional information about East Bull and photographs of the mineralized drill core are available at www.mustangminerals.com.
Rationale
Mustang views the East Bull Lake Property as a high potential property for platinum group metals, nickel and copper. This view is based on academic work completed on the East Bull Lake Property by the Ontario Geological Survey, exploration results demonstrating a well mineralized layered intrusion and interest in the property from major mining companies in the past.
A recently completed VTM airborne geophysical survey has identified new drill targets within the intrusion that could represent the accumulation of massive sulphides along the margins of the intrusion. Mustang is of the view these high potential targets should be drill tested as they are part of a series of broad VTEM conductors that could possibly represent semi-massive to massive sulphide accumulations along the margins of the intrusion.
After completion of exploration drilling targeting the near surface target at the PLDZ Mustang intends to find a joint venture partner to fund a significant drill program to test the deeper targets at East Bull.
Mustang's priority both for project development and exploration remains its Manitoba properties notably the Maskwa Nickel Project where a prefeasibility study has recently been released. Drill results from several "blue sky" exploration holes at Maskwa are pending.

Things look better than ever for Mustang Minerals.
The exploration company has commissioned a full feasibility study of its Maskwa property near Lac du Bonnet, after the company announced major success last week with its preliminary study.
Along with the full feasibility study, the company will apply for a mine permit for its Maskwa site, located near Bird River.
“We’ve gotten over a big hurdle, that’s for sure,” Mustang Minerals investor relations manager David Black told the Leader. “We’re all very excited.”
The prefeasibility study was commissioned in March of 2007, and conducted by Wardrop Engineering. It involved the determination of ore mining and treatment methods, refinement of the open pit plan, geotechnical data collection, review of the infrastructure requirements, and development of operating plans.
“The prefeasibility study outlines important progress made to date on the mine development and highlights the potential for Maskwa to be a low cash cost producer of nickel,” Mustang president Robin Dunbar said.
The full feasibility study will now move beyond the planning stage and look at the economics of developing a full-scale mine at the site. The proposed project is a 2,750 tonnes per-day open pit mine and milling operation producing an average of 9.2 million pounds of nickel per year in concentrate. Other minerals that would be mined include platinum, copper and cobalt.
Along with the mine permit application comes a public consultation process, meaning officials from Mustang Minerals will be busy soliciting feedback from the public regarding the development of a full-scale open pit mine.
If it goes ahead, it won’t be the first time a mine has been developed at the site. The Maskwa property was developed into an open-pit mine in the 1960s, but was shut down in the 70s and left mostly dormant until Mustang Minerals purchased it in May of 2004.
Black said Mustang is looking at a roughly two-year timeline before the full feasibility and public consultation stages are done.
“It looks very promising. It’s great to be able to really start pulling everything together,” he said.

Mustang Drills New Nickel Horizon with 487.2 Meters at 0.24% Nickel Drillhole Intercepts 3.8% Nickel
TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - June 11, 2008) - Mustang Minerals Corp. (TSX VENTURE:MUM)(FRANKFURT:NJF) today announced a significant new drill intercept at the Maskwa Nickel Project. Drillhole MM08-128 was drilled in a new exploration horizon (the Southern Horizon) near the proposed Maskwa pit shell. Within a mineralized envelope of 487.2 meters assaying 0.24% nickel and 115 ppb pgm the interval contained multiple zones of nickel mineralization. Notably, the exploration hole intersected 29.7 meters (97.4 feet) at 0.30% nickel, 283 ppb pgm, and 0.02% cobalt near surface and 0.83 meters (2.7 feet) grading 3.88% nickel, 1000 ppb pgm and 0.19% cobalt from 348.3 meters downhole. Numerous zones of nickel and PGM mineralization were encountered throughout the entire length of the drill hole, as well as smaller high grade sections.
The results have positive implications for
1) significant expansion of the proposed open pit resources at Maskwa and
2) the potential delineation of high grade nickel sulfide resource at the project.
MM08-128 was collared to the south at 45 degrees. Results are as follows:

MM08-128 was drilled 500 meters to the east of the proposed Maskwa open pit defined in the recent National Instrument 43-101 prefeasibility study. It tested a broad flat lying ground loop EM conductor from a survey completed in 1998 by a previous company. The conductor has an interpreted strike length of over two kilometers. The horizon has not been previously drill tested by Mustang. MM08-129 was drilled 200 meters to the east and further south of MM08-128. It was angled 45 degrees to the south and intersected several zones of mineralization starting at surface. It is interpreted that MM08-129 may have been drilled too far to the south to intersect the entire zone noted in MM08-128.

The stratigraphy and mineralization encountered are similar to recent Mustang hole MM08-112 drilled 1.5 km to the west (see Mustang press release dated April 22, 2008). Assay results from several additional holes recently drilled by Mustang to test the Southern Horizon west of the Maskwa are pending. A map of the recently drilled holes is posted at http://www.mustangminerals.com/newmap.html.
Field mapping by Mustang geological crews have identified the horizon further to the east, as noted in historical assessment reports. The Southern Horizon is hosted by the Bird River sill and has been mapped intermittently for 7 kilometers on Mustang Minerals property. Historical exploration work on the Southern Horizon was primarily focused on chrome - pgm as opposed to nickel.
"We are looking for additional resource to add to our Proven and Probable open pit reserve of 7.11 million tonnes grading 0.64% nickel and other credits" said Robin Dunbar, President of Mustang. We are encouraged by these new exploration results at Maskwa in close proximity to our proposed open pit project" he added. " The Southern Horizon in the area of MM08-128 is now a high priority for follow up drilling. The Maskwa Property is now demonstrating potential for significantly larger tonnage open pit nickel-pgm sulfide resource and zones of higher grade mineralization." "It is also important to note that the project is located in an area of excellent infrastructure and low cost power."
Drill Program Update
In addition to exploration drill results from the Southern Horizon additional assays are pending from drilling in other areas of the Maskwa Property. These include:
1) Resource drilling to the east of Maskwa targeting an eastern extension of the pit resource (MM08-119 to MM08-123)
2) Resource drilling to further define the hangingwall at Maskwa and to the main resource to depth (MM08-130 to MM08-135)
3) Additional drill holes into the Southern Horizon (MM08-124, 126,127, 108)
4) Remaining exploration holes drilled to test the West Maskwa Horizon.
Results are also pending from an exploration phase drill program at the East Bull Lake Property west of Sudbury, Ontario.
QA/QC
The drill core from the drill program was processed and assayed at TSL Labs in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. The core was split at the Maskwa site and a split of all the samples were retained as the other half was sent to the laboratory. Mustang Minerals carries out a QA/QC program on all its drill holes including the insertion of standards and blanks.

The project is located approximately 140 km northeast of Winnipeg in Manitoba, Canada, a favourable political jurisdiction with low hydroelectric power rates and established infrastructure. Standard grinding and flotation techniques will be utilized to produce a nickel concentrate.
Micon concluded that "the Maskwa Project contains an economic mineral reserve and warrants continued development to the full feasibility stage."
"The prefeasibility study of the Maskwa Project is a significant milestone towards the re-establishment of a mining operation at the Maskwa site" said Robin Dunbar President of Mustang. "The prefeasibility study indicates that the planned operation at Maskwa has the potential to be a profitable low cost producer of nickel and other by-product metals. Using the assumptions outlined in the prefeasibility study the project will have an attractive cash cost net of credits of CDN $2.77 per pound over its life. We are moving ahead on all fronts at Maskwa to complete feasibility level studies and permitting required for the project".
Using nickel prices per pound of US $10 for the first two years and US$8 per pound thereafter the project assumed that open pit ore would be mined, milled and a concentrate produced for shipment to a Sudbury smelter. The undiscounted pre-tax operating profit generated by the project was CDN$285 million with single peak year earnings of CDN$ 63 million.
Feasibility Underway at Maskwa Project
Mustang is now moving forward aggressively with a feasibility study and permitting activities for the Maskwa Project. Key activities are as follows:
1. Metallurgical Testwork - A feasibility level metallurgical test work program has been initiated by Mustang engaging the services of Xstrata Process Support. The overall feasibility metallurgical program will expand on the test work completed for the prefeasibility study.
2. Updated Resource Calculation - A new resource estimate incorporating additional assay data is planned for the fall of 2008. As part of an updated resource calculation Mustang has;
a) Completed a first phase in-pit sampling program Previously unassayed drill core was split, logged and assayed. All of the drill core assayed were from holes previously drilled inside the proposed Maskwa pit shell and as such is anticipated to add to the existing resource.
b) Drilled and submitted for assay an additional six holes to test for near surface and potential hangingwall mineralization inside the current pit shell.
c) Drilled an additional six drill holes to the east of the current targeting the expansion of the pit in this direction.
3. Environmental Baseline Studies and Permitting - Mustang is currently in the final stages of completing baseline environmental studies at Maskwa. First Nations and other stakeholder engagement are also planned in the coming months as part of permitting activities for the project. Wardrop Engineering Inc. is the consultant working with the Company on these issues.
Additional exploration results are currently pending for the Maskwa Property and Mustang's East Bull Lake Property.
