EXECUTIVE SUMMARY - THE RUBY CREEK PROJECT- A CLEAN PORPHYRY MOLYBDENITE RESOURCE

April 12, 2006 - Vancouver, British Columbia

Mr. Larry W. Reaugh, President & CEO, Adanac Moly Corp. (TSX.V: AUA, Frank: A9N) ("Adanac"), is pleased to report the results of the Ruby Creek Molybdenum feasibility are positive and Wardrop Engineering Inc. recommends continuing development through detailed engineering, which is set to commence during the second quarter of 2006.

MEASURED & INDICATED TONNES 206,375,000 @ 0.063% Mo

OPEN PIT MINING & MILLING 20,000 TONNES/DAY FOR 20+ YEARS

Mineable reserves are 113,400,000 tonnes grading .066% Mo of proven and probable ore. Stockpiled proven and probable reserves totaling 31,300,000 tonnes grading .034% Mo will be available as mill feed at the end of the open pit mine life.

MOLYBDENUM PRODUCTION
First 5 YEARS    58,341,000 lbs Mo
Average grade of Molybdenum (1st 5 years)

*CAPITAL COSTS $434,400,000     ±15%
       * includes preproduction capital, now shown as a capital expense rather than an operating expense.

OPERATING COSTS
First 5 YEARS     $5.87US/lb Mo

PROJECT SUMMARY

Mine Life:         21 years
Milling Rate:     20,000 tonnes per day
Strip Ratio:     0.95 (waste)/1.0 (ore)
Tonnage milled:     143.7 million tonnes, average grade 0.059% Mo
Average Recovery:     89%
Molybdenum in concentrate:     75.9 million kilograms (167.4 million pounds)
Base Case: IRR 24.42%,   NPV @ 8% = $222.2 Million,   Payback = 3.1 Years

The Company is proceeding with the Engineering Study on the High Pressure Grinding Rolls (HPGR) through Wardrop Engineering. It is expected that the concentrator will incorporate the HPGR system instead of the base case SAG Mill design. This aspect alone will increase the IRR to 28.85%, NPV to $305,100,000 and payback period reduced to 2.9 years.

Diamond drilling within the pit to begin in June for metallurgical samples, will also incorporate angle holes over the high grade portion of the open pit. The purpose of drilling the angle holes is to penetrate the vertical mineralized fractures (not encountered in vertical holes) which were picked up on the 10,000 tonne bulk testing in 1970.

A sensitivity on the project economics was carried out to determine the impact of a potential 15% increase in the grade of ore. The case for considering potential increase in grade is based on detailed drill hole bulk sampling studies described in Kaiser Engineers, "Feasibility Study of the ADANAC Molybdenum Project" prepared for Kerr Addison Mines Ltd., Report No. 71-1, (January 1971). While this work is not NI43-101 compliant, the results from bulk sampling indicated higher grades than the drill program by as much as 20%. For the purpose of the sensitivity study only a grade increase of +15% was assumed. The project IRR increases to 35.03% and the NPV increases to C$405 million at an 8% discount.

MOLYBDENUM OUTLOOK

At a conservative long term demand growth projection of 2%, an additional 3.5 million kgs Mo (7 million lbs Mo) per annum will be required to meet demand. If growth in demand continues at the current rate of 3% per annum the annual additional quantity required becomes 4.5 million kg Mo (10 million lbs Mo) and 7.5 million kg Mo (16 million lbs Mo) at 5% annual growth rate.

There is clearly a need for additional mine output. In a report for AIM-listed International Molybdenum PLC issued in July 2005, consultant CRU Strategies estimated that global moly supplies would total under 350 million lbs in 2005 but be in deficit by between 6 and 26 million lbs on base case and upper case scenarios by 2009.

This press release is reviewed by John W. Fisher, C.Eng., P.Eng., an independent qualified person as defined by NI43-101. Mr. Fisher visited the Ruby Creek property on June 21, 2005.
