AGORACOM NEWS FLASH

Dear Agoracom Family,

I want to thank all of you for your patience with us over the past 48 hours and apologize for what was admittedly a botched launch of our new site.

As you can see, we have reverted back to the previous version of the site while we address multiple forum functionality flaws that inexplicably made their way into the launch.

To this end:

1.We have identified 8 fundamental but easily fixable flaws that will be corrected in the coming week, so that you can continue to use the forums exactly as you've been accustomed to.

2.Additionally we will also be implementing a couple of design improvements to "tighten up" the look and feel of the forums.

Sincerely,

George et al

Dios New Uranium UGO Project Yields 0,058% U3O8
MONTREAL, QUEBEC, CANADA--(Marketwire - April 22, 2009) - DIOS EXPLORATION (TSX VENTURE:DOS) received the first outcropping rock samples results from a first three-day reconnaissance on its UGO uranium property in the LaGuiche Basin, Quebec, Canada. Dios geologists collected thirty-two grab-samples from radioactive tonalitic and pegmatitic outcrops on this new property. Best assays were 0,058; 0,040; 0,031 and 0,03 %U3O8 within a one kilometres-radius. The property is owned 100% by DIOS EXPLORATION. The DIOS' team is of the opinion it has uncovered a new uranium district in Quebec, with all its new uranium discoveries in the Opinaca area.

DIOS is in a good financial position and has the funds necessary to pursue its exploration programs for the next few years with its 5 M$ hard cash working capital, without incurring any share capital dilution. DIOS has only some 34 333 839 shares outstanding.

The UGO property is centered on a uranium lake bottom sediment anomaly cluster from SDBJ data including 11 samples over 25 ppm U INAA (parts per million uranium analyzed by neutron activation): 230, 88, 76, 52, 42, 36, 32, 28, 26, 26, 26 ppm U INAA over a 16 km by 4 km area. Values of 1150 and 970 ppm U were obtained when analyzed by atomic absorption (AA). Available government mapping suggests that the UGO property is underlain by LaGuiche biotite paragneiss (from 1 to 4 km thick) sandwiched between two Archean anatectic granite-tonalite plutons (Granite du Vieux Comptoir). The LaGuiche paragneiss are injected by granitic pegmatite dykes/sills. A NW Mistissini gabbro dyke cuts these lithologies. The property is also located near the contact between the LaGuiche and the LaGrande Sub-provinces. This environment is favourable to a Rossing-type (8% of the world production) large volume uranium model. Samples were analysed at the Val d'Or ALS CHEMEX laboratory. Field readings of 1,000 to 7,000 counts per seconds (radiation solution RS-125) with U/Th ratios between 1,2 and 5,0 were observed on the property.

The UGO property, composed of 139 contiguous mining cells (cdc) totalling about 71 square-kilometers, is very easily accessible, as it is located 1 to 7 km south of the Trans-Taiga all-seasons road and of LaGrande-3 hydro-electrical reservoir, James Bay, Quebec. It is also located about 20 km north of DIOS U2 uranium project.
