MAYA Acquires 100% of the Interests of the Amizmiz Property

Recently, the Company had announced significant gold results from diamond drilling on its Amizmiz property in Morocco which included an intersection of 7.05 g/t Au over 8.0 metres within a 20-metre wide zone averaging 3.02 g/t Au in diamond drill hole A3. This hole is collared directly in the "Heart" of the 1.45 km by 250-metre wide combined Induced Polarization and potassium radiometric anomalies, currently named the Tiqlit anomaly (see news release of July 27, 2010).

MAYA and Societe d'Exploration Geologique des Mineraux (SEGM), the actual owner of the five permits which cover an area of 80 square-kilometre Amizmiz property, were to move into a joint venture (MAYA 70% and SEGM 30%), following cash payment (or cash equivalent in common shares) by MAYA of $CA1.2 million and exploration expense works of $CA3.8 million within a four-year period. As of today, MAYA has completed cash payment worth of $CA0.5 million and carried out exploration works for the equivalent of $CA2.8 million and earn a cumulative 30% interests in the property. Respective cash payments (or cash equivalent in common shares of MAYA) of $CA300,000 and $CA400,000 were to be paid on March 20, 2011 and 2012.

SEGM has agreed to transfer all its interests in the property to MAYA against issuance of 1,555,555 common shares of MAYA upon acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange which corresponds to the equivalent of the remaining cash payment ($CA700,000) at $CA0.45 per share. SEGM will retain a 2.5% NSR on the actual five permits and any additional properties which could eventually be acquired by MAYA within an 8-kilometre diameter as stipulated in the original agreement. The retrocession of the permits should also be submitted for approval to the " Ministere Marocain de l'Energie et des Mines ".

Michel Jebrak, Ph.D., professor of Earth Sciences at Universite du Quebec a Montreal and also specialized in Moroccan geology, visited the property in July 2008 was back on the property last week, management is expecting his field report shortly. As reported in the July 27th, 2010 press release, the gold mineralization is both hosted in a pyrite-pyrrhotine silicified black shales and in limestone of middle Cambrian age. This large distribution of gold recall world-size gold districts such as the Carlin-type deposits of Nevada and several "Intrusion-related Gold Deposits/Black shale-hosted Gold Deposits" including Muruntau (Uzbekistan), Morro do Ouro (Brazil) and Maiskoye (Russia).

Drill holes are being performed with the objective of testing the extension of this gold intersection and assay results are pending.
