MPH Ventures Prepares for Bulk Sample at Pidgeon Molybdenum Deposit

in NW Ontario

Vancouver, BC – MPH Ventures Corp. (TSX-V: MPS) (FWB: IJA1) (the “Company”) announces that it has initiated a detailed channel sampling program on its 100% owned Pidgeon Molybdenum Deposit project located at the east end of Lateral Lake, Echo Township, northwestern Ontario.

The detailed channel sampling program is now underway and will be conducted over an area that MPH Ventures has already stripped and cleared to expose bedrock. An area of 30 x 40 metres was stripped of overburden and mapped in detail by MPH Ventures geologists.

The partial exposure of the deposit and detailed mapping has resulted in a significant new interpretation of the mineralization and suggests strongly that the grade of this deposit could be significantly greater than indicated by surface drilling due to a strong nugget effect in the molybdenum zone.

The Company will also apply to carry out a bulk tonnage sample to obtain a better estimate of the grade of the molybdenum deposit. MPH Ventures has contacted Wardrop Engineering for advice in proceeding with the bulk sampling program on the Pidgeon Molybdenum Deposit including the size of bulk sample and methodology to be used in extracting the bulk tonnage.

On September 29th, MPH Ventures announced it had completed a 31 hole drill program on its Phase 2 program for 2008. The drill program consisted of a series of step out drill holes that was designed to intersect Molybdenum mineralization within 100 metres of surface.

The goal of this drill program was to achieve 20 million tonnes with an average grade of 0.10% Mo of a drill indicated resource. The Company believes it has surpassed this goal and the data acquired will be submitted to Wardrop Engineering for an updated independent resource evaluation to NI 43-101 standards.

The drilling indicates that the size of the molybdenum deposit has been substantially increased. The drilling also indicates that the known molybdenum zone is open along several trends to the west and suggests that significant new tonnage can also be developed in this direction.

MPH Ventures is making preparations for a winter 2008-2009 drill program. Significant additional drilling is planned to expand and fully define the deposit.

HIGHLITES FROM PHASE 2 DRILL PROGRAM

Drilling continues to confirm the Company's opinion that a potential open pit situation exists on the Pidgeon Molybdenum property. The Pidgeon Molybdenum Deposit property has excellent infrastructure with an all weather road going across the property, location to a paved highway is only 10 km to the south, and location to the major Trans Canada CN rail line is only 10 km to the north of the property.

As a summary, MPH Ventures has now completed 2 phases of diamond drilling on the Pidgeon Molybdenum Deposit project. The Company also had a resource estimate completed by Wardrop Engineering in 2007. (see Wardrop Engineering report filed on SEDAR November 27, 2007)

GEOLOGY OF THE PIDGEON MOLYBDENUM DEPOSIT

Molybdenite on MPH Ventures Pidgeon Molybdenum Deposit occurs in all vein and veinlets as well as in the intensely altered rock. The molybdenite is nuggety within the alteration and extremely nuggety within the quartz veins, particularly within the larger veins. It is this nuggety nature that suggests that the grade may be significantly under estimated from drill hole results. Large clots of molybdenite observed within the quartz veins were seldom, if ever, observed in drill core. There is no association with any other elements. This would suggest simple mill circuitry and a clean concentrate.

The mineralization has a known continuous strike length of 1700 metres with an average true width of 25 metres. The mineralization has a relatively shallow dip to the southeast and occurs from surface to depths below 200 metres. The geometry of the deposit is highly amenable to open pit extraction mining with a very low stripping ratio.
