Vancouver, B.C., September 8, 2009 – Mr. Harvey Keats, Chief Executive Officer of Donner Metals Ltd.

(TSXV-DON), reports that the feasibility study is advancing rapidly at Bracemac-McLeod in Matagami,Québec.  Bracemac-McLeod is subject to an Option and Joint Venture agreement between Donner and Xstrata Canada Corporation – Xstrata Zinc Canada Division (Xstrata Zinc).

Definition drilling at 25 metre centers is underway, the engineering firm has been selected, and in-house engineering studies continue within Xstrata Zinc.  In order to accelerate the decision-making process, Xstrata Zinc has decided to forgo pre-feasibility and go straight to feasibility from the scoping study stage.  Bracemac-McLeod will essentially only require mine development as a result of the existing infrastructure in the camp, including Xstrata Zinc’s 2,600 tonne per day Matagami Mill Complex. 

The feasibility study is scheduled for completion in June 2010, and given a positive outcome, mine construction using ramp access will begin in July 2010. 

Additional information on Bracemac-McLeod and the Matagami Project is available online at www.donnermetals.com.
