VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - May 17, 2011) - Magellan Minerals Ltd. (News - Market indicators) ("Magellan") is pleased to announce trench results from several additional trenches at the Valdette soil anomaly as well as three initial trenches at the Demetrio zone.

Valdette

The Valdette structure was identified on the basis of a recently identified gold-in-soil soil anomaly that extends 3.8km in length and is located west of the main structure at Coringa (see press release dated 25th January 2011).

Results on six additional sets of trenches across this anomaly have been received and include gold values of 6m @ 4.63g/t gold, 7m @ 1.40g/t gold and 6m @ 0.80g/t gold. These additional trenches have now confirmed the presence of at least one, possibly two parallel structures at Valdette that extend over a strike length of at least 1.75km. The zone remains open to both the north and south.

One rig is currently drilling at Valdette. A map showing the results obtained to date is available at the Magellan website (see current drill map for Valdette). All surface samples were of saprolitic material.

Demetrio

Three trenches were recently completed at the Demetrio gold-in-soil anomaly which is 1km in length and 350m to 550m in width. The anomaly is located south of Valdette and approximately 700m west of the Bravo-Escorpion zone on the main Coringa structure. The three trenches were oriented ENE-WSW and were dug approximately 100m apart. Results from the three trenches include 4m @ 4.5g/t, 6m @ 0.8g/t and 3m @ 0.86g/t and confirm the presence of a gold bearing structure at Demetrio which is at least 200m in length and open both to the north and south.

A second rig is currently drilling on this anomaly and results are pending (see current drill map for Demetrio).

The objective of the 2011 Diamond drilling program at Coringa is to significantly expand on the existing resource of 269,450 oz of gold in the Measured and Indicated category which has an average grade of 8.53 g/t and the Inferred material which averages 9.34 g/t gold and totals 98,224oz.

This press release was reviewed by Guillermo Hughes, B.Sc., a member of AusIMM and a qualified person in compliance with National Instrument 43-101.

Magellan is a TSX Venture Exchange listed exploration company with a number of gold exploration properties in the Tapajos Province of northern Brazil and is focused on the Cuiu Cuiu and Coringa projects where drilling is currently in progress.
