Terra Firma Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:TFR) ("Terra Firma" or "the Company"),
through its wholly owned Indonesian subsidiary, PT. Terra Mineral Resources
Indonesia is pleased to announce the first reconnaissance sample results from
the initial exploration program at its Malawa Property in South Sulawesi,
Indonesia.


This early field exploration program consisted of prospecting, reconnaissance
mapping and chip sampling. This work has resulted in the identification of high
grade copper mineralization (up to 7% copper) and good grades of Silver
contained within porphyry copper mineralization and an associated peripheral
copper (lead-zinc) skarn mineralization. A total of 19 samples were collected
along partially exposed bedrock, mainly along creeks. As such, sampling was done
by taking rock chips (grab samples). A Petrographic report was completed on
selected samples. Sample analytical result highlights include:

Company geologists have described samples MLW2A and MLW2D to be from a
porphyritic sericite altered granodiorite with disseminations and veinlets of
pyrite, chalcopyrite, covellite and malachite. 


Numerous occurrences of copper gossans have been observed within the alteration
zones associated with sheared and intensely fractured rocks. Anomalous gold
values of up to 1.2 g/t have also been detected on sample MLW-2A. On the
periphery of the alteration zone to the east malachite and extensive
chalcopyrite veins assaying up to 7 percent copper (sample MLW5D) have been
identified. Float in stream drainages have been observed to contain mainly
chalcopyrite mineralization. 


Samples MLW05A, MLW05B and MLW05C were taken from skarn type mineralization
mainly comprised of chalcopyrite with lesser sphalerite and galena. The second
phase of the exploration program will consist in trenching, sampling and test
pits.


All samples collected from the property were submitted to Intertek's Jakarta lab
for geochemical analysis. The exploration program is led by Senior Geologist
Andri Subandrio, with oversight being provided by Geologist Johannes Erasmus,
Associate Senior Geologist of Micromine Consulting Services.


Geologist Johannes Erasmus is a Qualified Person as defined by National
Instrument 43-101. Johannes Erasmus will be the Qualified Person for this and
future work programs on the South Sulawesi Property. Mr. Erasmus has a B.Sc
(Geology) from the University of South Africa and an MSc (Mineral Economics)
from the School of Mining Engineering at the University of Witwatersrand. Mr.
Erasmus has more than 30 years experience in both mining and exploration and has
been responsible for the management of numerous exploration programs around the
world.


Brian Buchanan, CEO of Terra Firma said, "We are very pleased with the first
sampling results,that have identified high grade copper and good grades of
silver mineralization, within an associated peripheral copper, lead-zinc skarn
type mineralization on the Mallawa property in South Sulawesi."
