MagIndustries Corp.: Clarifying Press Release
TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Dec. 1, 2008) - MagIndustries Corp. (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:MAA) has been selected by the Corporate Finance Branch of the Ontario Securities Commission (the "OSC") for review of its continuous disclosure record. As a part of this review, the Company has been requested to issue a press release in respect of certain of its previous disclosure.

The Company wishes to clarify certain previous disclosure it has made in respect of the proven and probable reserves for the Kouilou potash project (the "Project") located in the Republic of Congo, more specifically contained in the Technical Report entitled "Reserve Estimate for MagMinerals Makola Permit Area, Kouilou Region, Republic of Congo" dated February 29, 2008 (the "Technical Report"). The Company has now revised certain sections of the Technical Report to ensure that the disclosure of the mineral resources and mineral reserves state both the grade and tonnage of the mineral resource or reserve in accordance with Section 2.2(d) of National Instrument 43-101 -- Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101"). The changes to the previous disclosure set forth herein do not change the substance of the information previously provided but are being made in order to ensure compliance with the provisions of NI 43-101.

The Company hereby confirms that its mineral resources and mineral reserves at the Kouilou potash project are as set out in the following excerpt taken from the revised Technical Report dated November 3, 2008 prepared by Dr. Henry Rauche and Dr. Sebastiaan van der Klauw and filed on SEDAR at www.sedar.com on December 1, 2008.

The estimated resources of each category for Horizon 1, Horizon 2, Horizon 3 and Horizon 4 are presented in the table below. Already excluded from these resources are areas with geological and technical exclusion zones (approx. 35 % reduction) and mining losses assuming the use of a solution mining method have also been accounted for (approx. 75 % reduction).
