Mega Uranium Announces High Grade Uranium Mineralization Confirmed On Northwest Athabasca Property, Saskatchewan

TORONTO,Ontario (November 8, 2012) - Mega Uranium Ltd. (TSX:MGA) ("Mega") and Forum Uranium Corp. (TSXV:FDC)("Forum") are pleased to announce preliminary results from the first of threehigh priority targets being drilled on the Northwest Athabasca property.Uranium mineralization was encountered at shallow depths in two of four holesdrilled in the first target area.

Drillhole NWA-35 intersected a 1.4 metremineralized interval at a vertical depth of 26 metres and is interpreted to bepart of Zone 2A discovered in 1978. Withinthis interval a 25 centimetre section gave an off-scale scintillometer* reading(>9999 counts per second). Mineralization consists of blebs and flecks ofpitchblende. Sufficient drilling has now been completed in the vicinity of Zone2A to conclude that the zone is of very limited extent, however the interceptin hole NWA-35 confirms the presence of high grade mineralization on the NorthwestAthabasca property. Further drilling is recommended outside Zone 2A to definethe controlling structure.

Drillhole NWA-34 intersected a 10cm zone, withina graphitic shear, with a scintillometer* reading of 1,400 counts per second ata vertical depth of 50 metres and located 20 metres west of Zone 2A. Approximately 20 metres to the west of theNWA-34 intercept is an untested electromagnetic conductor which has been selectedfor future drill testing.

The current drill program is continuing withtesting of the Maurice Creek South target, (a gravity low situated immediatelysouth of the historic Maurice Creek mineralization) and the Barney Zone,(tested by a single hole in March 2012 with very positive results of strongbleaching and faulting associated with dravite clays in the overlyingsandstones).

Large gravity lows are present both to thenorth and south of Zone 2A. Drilling onthe gravity low to the south discovered the Opie Zone in March 2012 (0.142% U3O8over 7.6 metres at a depth of 40 to 100 metres) which requires more drillingthis winter. An untested gravity low also lies to the north of Zone 2A and is apriority target for future drill programs. See Figure 1: Northwest AthabascaProject Gravity Survey at the end of this news release.

The Northwest Athabasca property hosts theMaurice Bay deposit (historical resource** of 1.5 million pounds uranium at0.6% U3O8). The positive results returned from the drillprogram completed in March 2012, including the discovery of the Opie encouragedForum and Mega to step up exploration on the property. All targets are similarto Cameco's Millennium deposit and Rio Tinto's Roughrider deposit and at muchshallower depths (less than 100 metres).

Quality Assuranceand Quality Control

Core samples are collected and shipped insealed containers to the Saskatchewan Research Council, an ISO/IEC 17025:2005(CAN-P-4E) certified laboratory for geochemical analysis using the Uranium ICPPackage. This package is the preferred analytical technique for detectinguranium and pathfinder elements in the alteration halos of unconformity-typeuranium deposits in the Athabasca Basin.

Forum and MegaOption with Cameco

Forum and Mega Uranium have entered into a50/50 Joint Venture Agreement to manage the exploration program during theearn-in period with Forum as initial Operator. Forum and Mega can earn a 60% interest in the Northwest Athabascaproject, a joint venture between Cameco Corporation and Areva Resources Canada,by completing $4 million in exploration over four years and making cashpayments totaling $400,000 over three years, of which $140,000 has been paid.It is anticipated that Forum and Mega will vest their joint 60% interest in theproperty upon completion of the current program.

The Northwest Athabasca project will formpart of the Mega projects being sold to NexGen Energy Ltd., as announced August9, 2012. That transaction is expected toclose in the fourth quarter of 2012.

*Naturalgamma radiation in drill core that is reported in this news release wasmeasured in counts per second (cps) using a handheld Exploranium GRS-101 totalcount gamma-ray scintillometer. The reader is cautioned that scintillometerreadings are not directly or uniformly related to uranium grades of the rocksample measured, and should be used only as a preliminary indication of thepresence of radioactive materials. The degree of radioactivity within thisinterval is highly variable and associated with visible pitchblendemineralization. Core recovery is generally between 90% to 100% in holeNWA-35. All intersections are down-hole,core interval measurements and true thickness are yet to be determined.
