Titan Uranium Inc. (TSX VENTURE: TUE)(FRANKFURT: T4X) is pleased to announce that it has commenced geophysical programs on several Athabasca Basin properties in Saskatchewan. A D.C. Resistivity and Max Min Horizontal Loop ElectroMagnetic (HLEM) geophysics program on Titan's wholly owned Bishop I and Meanwell properties is now underway with results expected in January 2010. In addition, geophysical work will be carried out over Titan's R-Seven Project beginning in early January 2010 consisting of TDEM (Time Domain ElectroMagnetic) Moving Loop surveys with results expected by the end of the first quarter of 2010.

D.C. Resistivity is the geophysical technique of choice in the Athabasca Basin due to its ability to image hydrothermal alteration systems often associated with fault zones and unconformity-type uranium deposits. The alteration zones show up as resistivity "chimneys" due to the significant contrast in resistivity between the structural zones and their surrounding rocks. The program will consist of ten lines totaling 20 line km, with line spacing of 150 m.

Max Min HLEM and TDEM Moving loop surveys are electromagnetic (EM) techniques used to detect and delineate conductors and conductive formations in the Precambrian basement rocks at or under sandstone cover. Both EM surveys have been designed to optimize resolution within that interval. The surveys will consist of eleven lines of HLEM (24.2 km) and two lines of TDEM Moving Loop (17 km).

Geochemical results from drill core collected during the recent summer drill program on the Sand Hill Lake Project have been analyzed and interpreted. The Sand Hill Lake Project is under option agreement to Vale Exploration Canada Inc. (VEC) and operated by Titan. In total 1,330 meters of core were drilled during the 5-hole drill program and all the holes were successfully completed.

Most of the Athabasca Group sandstone rocks exhibited moderate to strong bleaching and clay alteration was well developed. Strong alteration was found in basement rocks below the unconformity, mainly along fractures. Weak Uranium anomalies were observed in both the sandstone and basement rocks. Strong Boron, Arsenic, Copper and Molybdenum anomalies were detected in the basement rocks of DDH SH09-28. Building on the results of previous drill programs, the area surrounding drill holes SH06-2, SH06-3 and SH09-26 and near drill holes SH09-28 and SH09-29 is recommended for future work, e.g. D.C. Resistivity to define the alteration halos followed by additional diamond drilling. VEC has decided not to pursue the option and accordingly has elected to terminate the Letter Agreement as the project at this stage no longer fits within its strategic exploration plan.

About Titan Uranium Inc.

Titan Uranium's vision is to be a leading mid-tier North-American uranium exploration, development and mining company. Our mission is to create shareholder value by advancing quality projects to production.

Our growth strategy is driven by three elements:


--  Development: A pre-feasibility study has been launched at the Sheep
    Mountain Uranium Project, Wyoming. The deposit contains a NI 43-101
    compliant inferred resource of 15.6M lbs. of U3O8 (4,560,000 tons at
    0.17% eU3O8).
--  Exploration: The goal is to discover world class uranium deposits by
    exploring over 1.5M acres of land in the proven Athabasca and
    prospective Thelon Basins. Exploration programs are also active in Utah
    and Wyoming.
--  Consolidation: The Company is actively pursuing M & A opportunities and
    focused on uranium-friendly jurisdictions such as Saskatchewan and
    Wyoming.

Titan has gained market recognition for its ability to attract strategic partners to participate in the exploration of its properties. Japan Oil, Gas and Metals National Corporation and Mega Uranium Ltd. are partners in current exploration programs managed by Titan.

Titan is well-financed and ideally positioned to emerge as a pre-eminent player in the uranium industry.
