MacDonald Mines Exploration Ltd. (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:BMK) announced
today it has engaged Marquest Asset Management Inc. ("the Lead Agent") to lead a
syndicate of sub-agents which includes Secutor Capital Management to conduct a
brokered offering of securities of the Company (the "Offering") to raise gross
proceeds of up to $2,700,000 through the sale of flow-through units (the "FT
Units") at a price of $0.075 per FT Unit and through the sale of non
flow-through units (the "Units") at a price of $0.065 per Unit, to be offered on
a private placement basis pursuant to exemptions from the prospectus
requirement. 


Each FT Unit will consist of one (1) flow-through common share of the Company
and one-half (1/2) of one common share purchase warrant (the "FT Warrants").
Each full FT Warrant entitles its holder to purchase one non-flow through common
share at a price of $0.15 per share for a period of eighteen (18) months from
the date of issue.


Each Unit will consist of one (1) common share of the Company and one-half (1/2)
of one common share purchase warrant (the "Unit Warrants"). Each full Unit
Warrant entitles its holder to purchase one non-flow through common share at a
price of $0.15 per share for a period of eighteen (18) months from the date of
issue.


In connection with the Offering, the Company will pay to the Lead Agent a fee
equal to 6.5% of the gross proceeds of the Offering and issue non-transferable
compensation options ("Compensation Options") to the Lead Agent equal to 6.5% of
the total number of FT Units and Units sold in the Offering. Each Compensation
Option is exercisable to acquire one common share at the price of $0.065 per
share for a period of eighteen months from the date of issue. It is expected

including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.


Proceeds of the sale of FT Units will be used to incur "Canadian Exploration
Expenses" within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada) primarily on its
Butler Property in the James Bay Lowland region of Ontario. The net proceeds of
the sale of Units will be used to fund exploration programs on its Canadian
properties and for general corporate expenses. The next exploration program
consisting of 3,000 meters of drilling is currently scheduled for late 2012 or
early 2013. Completion of the program as currently scheduled is dependent on
weather conditions, the availability of funds and other risks set out in the
Company's Management Discussion & Analysis available under the Company's profile
