Vancouver, British Columbia, February 16, 2012 - Ted Ohashi, analyst with InvestmentPitch, interviews Jim Rogers, President & CEO of Mega Precious Metals (TSXV:MGP).

Mega Precious Metals is a well financed Canadian-based mineral exploration company with several projects in Northwestern Ontario, Manitoba and Nunavut. In 2011 both the Red Lake projects in Ontario saw significant advances in their project evolution. At the North Madsen Project, Mega has completed a comprehensive due diligence study of the historical drill core, surface mapping, compilation of all technical data, diamond drilling, surface channel sampling stripping and detailed grid mapping. At Headway the combined drilling has confirmed the geological model and Hole MH1103 is now advancing toward the target horizon beyond the 2011 year end depth of 2462 metres. During 2011, Mega drilled more than 27,000 metres in 76 holes at the Monument Bay Gold Camp in North Eastern Manitoba, mainly in step out drilling and successfully extended the open pit and high grade mineralization associated with the Burn Zone by increasing the size of the Burn Zone mineralization by over 300%. The property hosts multiple high-grade gold mineralized zones within the Stull Lake greenstone belt which is along strike of the Stull Wunnummin Fault zone, one of the main controls for mineralization at Goldcorp's Musselwhite mine in Northern Ontario. Mr. Rogers commented, "Mega is committed to finding and making mines. Red Lake and the North Madsen area have a rich history of underground mining. Mega's approach to unlock the economic potential of the North Madsen Project is to compile and analyze the drilling and historical mining done throughout the years. I believe that when one steps back and considers the advances in mining technology, large scale equipment and improvements to milling, metallurgy and recovery that the North Madsen property is very comparable to districts where open pit mining is common place. The technical issues at Headway have delayed and overshadowed the project, however, we believe in the potential of a high grade zone(s) in the hanging wall of Goldcorp's Red Lake Gold Mines and our goal is to get to a target depth in 2012. We are excited and look forward to discovering new gold ounces and moving Mega's Red Lake and Monument Bay projects closer to feasibility in 2012."
