ABOUT MIDLANDS MINERALS

Midlands is a growth oriented and value based gold exploration company operating
in Ghana and Tanzania, two stable countries with a history of gold mining.
Midlands' top priority project is the fully permitted Sian gold project in Ghana
which is 18 months away from a production decision, and which has an existing
CIL plant and a 30 year mining lease.


The Sian property contains Esaase and Ampeha, two previously producing open pit
mines with a resource with exceptional growth potential. Midlands' contiguous
Kwahu Praso project, which was once part of Sian, contains extensions of the
Esaase and Ampeha trends. Sian and Praso are just 30 kilometres northeast of
Newmont Mining's +8.7 million Akyem gold deposit.


The Company has a highly qualified management and technical team with extensive
experience in the countries in which the Company operates. For more information
