Mar Ked Acquires Key Uranium Claims in Canada's Athabasca Basin

SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mar Ked Mineral Exploration Inc. (OTCBB: MKED.OB) is pleased to announce a corporate update. Mar Ked is a Seattle-based publicly traded company dedicated to building shareholder value by acquiring uranium assets in a period of sharp rises in the price of uranium and diminishing world supplies.

Currently, Mar Ked’s main focus is on their 50% owned Hatchet Lake Property in Canada’s Athabasca Basin in northern Saskatchewan. Mar Ked acquired the interest in claims on the Hatchet Lake Property on May 15, 2008. Maxore Minerals Corp. is the owner of the remaining 50% interest in the claims. The property consists of two claims and covers approximately 3,149 and 526 hectares respectively along the eastern edge of the Athabasca basin on the northeastern shore of Hatchet Lake, 45 km northeast of Points North and within the Mudjatic Domain. The property is situated in an area that hosts the highest-grade uranium mines in the world.

The Company is very excited about their strategic land positions in the Athabasca Basin. Mar Ked has a strong technical and administrative team to support its projects and is currently assessing the results of a recent airborne geophysical survey. Management of the joint venture expects to use the information to plan work programs for the 2008 exploration season.

The company’s strategy is to add early stage exploratory value to its properties and to seek out joint venture partners with whom to do further exploration leading to development. Mar Ked is actively seeking further uranium and base metal prospects in Canada and abroad.
