VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Jan. 20, 2009) - Molycor Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:MOR)(PINK SHEETS:MLYFF)(FRANKFURT:M1V) (the "Company") is pleased to announce Teck Cominco Global Discovery Lab in Vancouver, BC has analyzed a composite sample from the Tami Mosi property in Nevada. The sample was taken from hole #TM-07-13 over a 30 foot section from 270 - 300 feet. Hole #TM-07-13 assayed 11.40% Mg over 540 feet (164.6 meters) from a five foot depth (1.5 meters). The result as outlined below is a pure form of Dolomite virtually identical to the National Bureau of Standards ("NBS"), "Standard 88B": ---------------------------------------------------------------- Si02 Ti02 Al203 Fe203 Mn0 Mg0 Ca0 Sample % % % % % % % ---------------------------------------------------------------- Hole #TM-07-13 1.25 0.01 0.22 0.10 0.01 20.95 29.91 270ft - 300ft ---------------------------------------------------------------- NBS "Standard 88B" 1.15 0.02 0.35 0.30 0.07 21.14 29.79 ---------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------- Na20 K20 P205 Ba L0I Total Sample % % % % % % --------------------------------------------------------- Hole #TM-07-13 0.01 0.01 less less 46.78 99.27 270ft - 300ft than than 0.01 0.01 --------------------------------------------------------- NBS "Standard 88B" 0.01 0.03 0.01 less 46.93 99.80 than 0.01 --------------------------------------------------------- The Magnesium/Dolomite strike distance is indicated to be 8,500 feet (2,600 meters) between holes TM-07-03 and TM-08-24 (see press release dated March 14, 2008). Results from the drilling in 2008 at the Tami Mosi are as follows: --------------------------------------------------------- From/To From/To Width Width Hole # (Feet) (Meters) (Feet) (Meters) % Mg --------------------------------------------------------- TM-08-23 165 - 520 50 - 158 355 108 11.98% --------------------------------------------------------- TM-08-24 75 - 390 23 - 119 315 96 11.24% --------------------------------------------------------- Hole number TM-08-23 ended at 520 feet grading 12.85% Mg and hole number TM-08-24 ended at 390 feet grading 12.60% Mg. Drill holes in the manganese discovery area did not encounter any significant manganese. Only two holes were drilled in the magnesium discovery area. The United States currently sources its Magnesium largely from overseas. Russia and China have been restricted from importing to the United States by anti dumping duties. The demand for this light metal has grown dramatically and the result is felt in the market. Magnesium currently trades at $2.30/lb as reported by MetalPrices.com on January 11, 2009.
