MMT Mart Resources

Mart Resources, Inc. (TSX VENTURE:MMT) ("Mart" or the "Company") and its
co-venturers, Midwestern Oil and Gas Company Plc. (operator of the Umusadege
field) and Suntrust Oil Ltd are pleased to provide an operations update on the
UMU-6 well located in the Umusadege field. 


The UMU-6 well reached a final total drilling depth of 8,750 feet on November 6,
2010. Open hole wire line logs have been run with preliminary results indicating
a total of 18 hydrocarbon-bearing sands. The logs also indicate a cumulative
gross pay of approximately 420 feet in the UMU-6 well from all sands. 


All of the UMU-6 well's primary objectives, including the XIII, XIV, XV and XVI
sands were hydrocarbon bearing with preliminary results indicating gross oil pay
of 40 feet, 24 feet, 6 feet and 18 feet from these sands respectively. A deeper
XVII sand was also encountered with initial results indicating 8 feet of gross
oil pay. The XIII, XIV, XV, XVI and XVII sands were not assigned reserves in the
Company's most recent NI 51-101 reserve report. 


The UMU-6 well also encountered hydrocarbons in the XI and XIIc sands with
preliminary results indicating gross oil pay of 14 feet and 18 feet
respectively. The previous Umusadege wells did not contain material hydrocarbons
in these sands. 


Pressure data and fluid samples are currently being obtained which will be
followed by the running of 9 5/8 inch production casing. It is expected that the
UMU-6 well will be completed as a dual tubing string configuration allowing for
multiple zone testing and future production from multi zones.


The current UMU-6 site includes a three well drilling pad which will facilitate
two more wells being drilled from this location. It is anticipated that the next
well, UMU-7, will commence drilling operations after the completion and
production testing of the UMU-6 well.
