Tanzanian Royalty Announces $3.14 Million Financing For Evaluation Program at Kigosi Gold Project

 Tanzanian Royalty is pleased to announce a $3.14 million private placement comprising 1,155,835 shares through two European investment funds.

Proceeds from the financing will be used to evaluate and develop the Company's Kigosi Gold Project in the Lake Victoria Goldfields of Tanzania where significant quantities of near surface, gold-bearing gravels have been indicated in several phases of RC drilling.

According to James E. Sinclair, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, "Our immediate plans for 2010 include the bulk sampling of surface gravels at Kigosi, with a view to developing the property's larger scale potential on a staged basis over the next few years."

"This is a time tested way of developing a gold project and in fact most of the world's historic mining camps have been developed on this basis. It reduces risk to shareholders and preserves the value of the asset for investors," he said.

Budgets for equipment purchases have been approved and the Company's in-house technical staff are completing the equipment selection process for the bulk sampling plant and delivery times to the Kigosi site.

The private placement common shares are subject to certain mandated hold periods and the certificates representing such shares are legended accordingly. No warrants, options or other rights have been issued or granted in connection with the placement. The private placement is subject to regulatory approval.
