Drilling Commences at the Klappibacken Uranium Project in Sweden

Vancouver, Canada, November 26 (ots/PRNewswire)

Mawson Resources
Limited ("Mawson") TSXv - MAW; Frankfurt - MRY. Michael  Hudson,
President & CEO, announces that drilling has commenced at the
Klappibacken uranium project in northwestern Sweden where a
4,000-metre  diamond drill program has been planned for this winter.
Significant  near-surface and high-grade uranium mineralization was
intersected by the  Company in a drill program reported in June 2007.
The results indicated the  strength of the uranium mineralized system
and the potential for a major  uranium deposit at Klappibacken. Best
results, calculated with a lower  cut-off of 200ppm U(3)O(8),
included:
    KLADD0703 :    56 metres at 0.10% U(3)O(8) from 20 metres;
                   including 5 metres for 0.24% U(3)O(8) from 25 metres, and
                   including 24.7 metres for 0.12% U(3)O(8) from 46.3 metres;
    KLADD0702 :    23.1 metres at 0.12% U(3)O(8) from 18.6 metres; and
                   8.6 metres at 0.10% U(3)O(8) from 51.5 metres;
Klappibacken is an intrusive-related uranium deposit, hosted by a
brecciated or cataclastic granite which is strongly enriched in
fluorite. Uranium mineralization is present within a single lense,
generally greater than 30 metres in width and locally up to 50 metres
wide. Historical drilling at Klappibacken has shown that
mineralization extends to greater than 150 metres below the surface,
at least 120 metres along strike, and remains open both at depth and
along strike.
A radon cap survey was completed by Mawson at Klappibacken in
2006, to measure the abundance of radon gas in the one metre thick
soil that masks bedrock in the prospect area. Radon gas is emitted as
a daughter product during the natural decay of uranium. This program
identified numerous nearby exploration targets up to two kilometers
along strike from Klappibacken.  These targets include areas with a
stronger radon gas signature than those associated with the known
mineralization. The radon cap targets shall be  drill tested early in
the upcoming summer drilling program.
Mr Hudson states, "At Klappibacken the mineralization commences
from surface and remains open at depth. Surface indications from
radon cap surveys and scintillometer traverses define the footprint
of high radioactivity to over two kilometres strike, of which only
120 metres has been drill tested.  We look forward to testing the
project over the coming months."

About the Company: Mawson Resources is a leading uranium explorer
in Europe with more than 16 million pounds of U(3)O8 in CIM-compliant
or  historic resources in the nuclear energy reliant countries of
Spain, Sweden  and Finland. As the European Union reduces its
reliance on carbon-based  energy sources, Mawson is well placed as
the Company develops its exploration portfolio towards the
sustainable production of uranium in the shortest possible time
frame.
