                        EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR - OPERATIONS 
 
The  Directors of Medusa Mining Limited (ASX & AIM: MML; TSX: MLL), ("Medusa" or 
the "Company") are pleased to announce the appointment of Mr Peter Hepburn-Brown 
as Executive Director - Operations with immediate effect. 
 
Mr  Hepburn-Brown, who was a Non-Executive  Director of Medusa immediately prior 
to  this appointment, is a mining engineer with 28 years of experience in a wide 
range  of mining situations, commodities and overseas jurisdictions. He has held 
senior  management positions such  as Executive Director  Operations for Harmony 
Gold  Australia and General Manager Operations  for Great Central Mines, as well 
as other executive, operational and consulting positions. 
 
His  experience includes hands-on shaft sinking and airleg mining in narrow vein 
mines, experience that is well suited to the Company's current operations in the 
Philippines, as well as mining large open pit, disseminated ore bodies. 
 
In his role as Executive Director - Operations, Mr Hepburn-Brown will manage all 
operational   and   technical   aspects  of  the  Company's  operations  in  the 
Philippines. 
 
Managing Director, Geoff Davis commented: 
 
 "The  Company is currently undergoing steady growth.  Peter's appointment to an 
executive  role  in  charge  of  the  Company's  operations  in  the Philippines 
reinforces the Company's position as a serious mid-tier gold producer. 
 
  Peter  has a  proven track  record of  operational management.  His skills and 
experience  will prove  invaluable for  Medusa, as  the Company heads towards an 
exciting phase of further expansion and growth." 
 
As  a result  of Mr  Hepburn-Brown's appointment  to an executive role, Medusa's 
Board  of  Directors  will  comprise  three  Non-executive  Directors  and three 
Executive  Directors. The  Board is  committed to  good corporate governance and 
will  seek  to  appoint  a  further  independent  non-executive  director when a 
suitable candidate has been identified in order to comply with the ASX Corporate 
Governance  Council's principle and recommendation that  a majority of the board 
should be independent directors.
