TAD Commences VTEM Max Survey on Uranium Prospect in the Athabasca Basin

TAD Mineral Exploration Inc. ("TAD" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:TJ) is
pleased to announce that the initial work program consisting of a VTEM max
program over its uranium block in the Patterson Lake Area of the Athabasca
Basin, Saskatchewan has commenced. This survey will assist in locating the
basement indicators on the property. 


James Nelson, a director of TAD stated, "We are pleased to be underway on this
project. When you consider the exposure that the Athabasca Basin has garnered,
especially in the light of the recent significant new discovery made by Fisson
at the Patterson Lake South property, we are excited to be active on a prospect
in this uranium district."


According to Aeroquest, "The VTEM max or Versatile Time Domain Electro Magnetic
system is the most innovative and successful airborne electromagnetic system to
be introduced in more than 30 years. The proprietary receiver design using the
advantages of modern digital electronics and signal processing delivers
exceptionally low-noise levels. Coupled with a high dipole moment transmitter,
the result is unparalleled resolution and depth of investigation in precision
electromagnetic measurements. The system was designed to be field configurable
to best suit a large variety of different geophysical requirements from deep
penetration to optimizing the discrimination within a narrow range of
resistivity values."


TAD has added three new prospects. One new prospect is located in the world
renowned uranium district of the Athabasca Basin in Saskatchewan in close
proximity to the Alpha/ Fission Patterson Lake South discovery. Another new
prospect is the Iskut copper/gold prospect near Colorado Resource's 'North Rok'
discovery in British Columbia. A third new project is a hydrothermal graphite
prospect bordering Zenyatta Ventures Ltd.'s recently discovered deposit. 


If you wish to be added to TAD's information list, please send an email to
