Midland Makes Another Interesting Property Acquisition

ERIC LEMIEUX, Laurentian Bank Securities (05/14/2009)
"Midland announced yesterday that it acquired via staking an important blocs of claims (375 claims covering 51,891 hectares) west of Lebel-sur-Quévillon in the Abitibi region of Quebec. Midland has a 100% interest in this 4 blocs Laflamme property, which is strategically located in a prolific gold-conducive setting in a trend between the Sleeping Giant mine (Cadiscor Resources Inc.-North American Palladium) and the Comtois property (Maudore Minerals Ltd). We believe that the Laflamme property has quality targets newly defined by recent government surveys. Indeed recent till sampling surveys have identified new strong Au-Cu geochemical dispersal trains trending NE-SW that appear to originate from the Laflamme property.

We highlight that Midland's presence in the Abitibi gold camp is again strengthened with this inexpensive acquisition. Midland was quick to move on government survey results disclosed last November and assembled claims that could eventually attract a partner. We believe this acquisition highlights Midland's ability to react quickly and selectively to generate and acquire good projects and is testament of a solid pro-active technical team.

We maintain our speculative buy recommendation with a $1.25 target price on Midland shares."
