Alexander Nubia Intersects High Grade Mineralization at its Abu Marawat Exploration Project in Egypt

Alexander Nubia Intersects High Grade Mineralization at its Abu Marawat Exploration Project in Egypt

- AAM-070: Intersects 11.6 metres grading 10.8 g/t gold, 185 g/t silver, 0.86 % copper and
4.64 % zinc from the MID vein.

- AAM-071:  Intersects 5.7 metres grading 0.99 g/t gold, 25.2 g/t silver, 0.28 % copper and 1.22 % zinc from the MID vein 110 metres below the intersection in AAM-070, and 7.6 metres from the CVZ with the best intersection being a 0.8-metre vein grading 1.23 g/t Au, 42 g/t Ag, 0.21 % Cu and 1.35 % Zn


December 1, 2011 - Toronto, Ontario. Alexander Nubia Internationalan exploration and development company with diversified minerals projects in Egypt, is pleased to announce results from the current drilling program at its Abu Marawat gold-copper-zinc-silver property.

President and CEO, A. Alexander Massoud commented, "We are excited about the recent excellent results received which will contribute significantly to the finalized NI 43-101-compliant resource statement.  Some of the recent drilling in the southern portion of the deposit has outlined areas of wider than expected vein structures with increased grade especially at depth."

Further to the news release, dated November 15, 2011, regarding the infill drill program, drilling successfully intersected the FIN and MID veins along strike between sections 550N and 750N.  These results will form part of the database for calculation of a NI 43-101-compliant inferred resource estimate, to be completed in Q1-2012.

On-going and expected near term results:

* Partial assays have been received for AAM-063; assays received are reported in Table 1.
* Assays for drill holes, AAM-063, AAM-065, through AAM-071 are shown in Table 1.  These holes tested the continuity of the FIN, MID, and CVZ veins between section 550N and section 800N.
* Currently being logged and sampled are drill holes AAM-072 to AAM-079. Holes AAM-074 to AAM-079 explore for the possible southern extensions of the CVZ and FIN zones.  These holes were drilled to test the southern-most extension of the vein systems.
* AAM-080 and AAM-081, two deep holes collared on sections 400N and 500N, respectively are located east of CVZ and designed to test the depth extension of the Abu Marawat vein system.  These are the two deepest drill holes on the property, with a drill length of 672 and 584 metres, respectively and designed to test the veins at 300 metres below wadi level.
* Drilling has commenced at Hamama zinc-gold-copper-silver volcanogenic massive sulphide property.




Highlights of recent assay results for holes AAM-063 to AAM-071 (see Table 1 for details)

* AAM-063: intersects a 17-metre-wide zone of low-grade zinc mineralization west of the FIN vein and intersects two previously unknown Cu-Zn veins 100 metres and 120 metres, respectively, west of the FIN-W vein.  
* AAM-064: intersects the West Valley 2 copper-gold vein and the West Valley 1 gold vein (assays are pending).
* AAM-065: intersects the FIN-W vein and an unknown vein 100 metres to the west (as in AAM-063).
* AAM-066: Was to test the CVZ system along Section 700 N; assays are pending.
* AAM-067: intersects the Fin West vein (west of the FIN vein) and the vein 100 metres to its west.
* AAM-068: intersects low-grade zinc-gold mineralization in the Valley vein over 7 metres with a very High-grade gold-silver spike over 1 metre; this is unusual for the Valley vein, which generally is copper-rich.
* AAM-069: intersects CVZ, MID, and FIN veins, and a broad lower grade gold-zinc zone at FIN West vein.
* AAM-070: intersects the FIN-W, FIN, CVZ, and CVZ-E veins; the MID vein contains high-grade mineralization over 10.6 metres with a very high-grade core of 4 m length.
* AAM-071: Cuts FIN-W, FIN, MID, CVZ, and CVZ-E veins, with highest-grade and widest zone in MID vein (5.7 metres).

On-going and expected near-term results

* Assays are pending for drill holes AAM-066, AAM-072, AAM-074-AAM-081, and parts of AAM-063 to AAM-069 and AAM-072.  Holes AAM-074 to AAM-079 explore for the possible southern extensions of the CVZ and FIN vein.
* Recently completed are AAM-080 and AAM-081, with lengths of 672 and 584 metres, respectively, were collared east of the CVZ on sections 400N and 500N, respectively, These holes test the depth extension of the Abu Marawat vein system up to 400 metres below wadi level.
* Drilling has commenced at the Hamama zinc-gold-copper-silver volcanogenic massive sulphide property.

* True widths are not reported and will vary form the indicated widths depending on intersection angle of core with vein(s).

To date, the Company has completed 81 diamond drill holes at the Abu Marawat property for a total of 17,870 metres.  Results of the current drill program will be used to prepare a NI 43-101-compliant inferred resource estimate.  A complete set of published assay results and a detailed plan map are available at www.alexandernubia.com.

Alexander Nubia employs an on-site sample preparation facility where core is diamond sawed into two equal halves; and one half of the core is returned to its core box for permanent, on-site storage and the other half, weighing approximately 2 kilograms, is crushed to minus 5 mm and riffle split to 500 g.  The 500 g sample is pulverized to a nominal -75 mesh and divided into two halves.  One half is delivered to the Egyptian Mineral Resource Authority for storage and the other half is shipped for analysis to the ALS Minerals laboratory in Romania.  ALS Minerals is an internationally recognized and accredited analytical facility.  ALS re-pulverizes all samples to insure the samples are homogenized and removes a one-assay/ton cut (approximately 30 grams) for gold analysis followed by an atomic absorption finish.  using industry accepted fire assaying techniques.  In addition, a 5-10 g sample is removed for Ag-Cu-Zn analysis by atomic absorption after digestion in aqua regia.  Over-range copper (>10,000 ppm), zinc (>10,000 ppm) and silver (>100 ppm) are re-analyzed using readjusted atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) techniques.  Selected samples are determined by inductively coupled plasma spectrometry - atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) after a four acid digestion for 'near total' digestion.  This technique scans a total of 33 elements.  A quality control program consisting of blanks and analytical control standards has been implemented to monitor laboratory performance; this is in addition to ALS's internal QA/QC program.  Discrepancies have been few, and when discovered, the 'laboratory batch' (usually 20 samples in a batch) is re-analyzed.
