News Release -  April 10, 2008

Tanzanian Royalty Clarifies Bloomberg News Service Article

Tanzanian Royalty would like to clarify some erroneous information that appeared in an article carried by Bloomberg news service on April 4, 2008 pertaining to its exploration activities in Tanzania.

Tanzanian Royalty has no intention whatsoever of raising capital through a public share offering. In fact, the Company’s Chairman and CEO, James E. Sinclair, has stated publicly his intention to finance the Company through ongoing private placements for as long as required.

The Company is continuing to discuss business opportunities with potential royalty partners for its strategically located land portfolio in the Lake Victoria Greenstone Belt of Tanzania.

“At the present time, four entities have concluded Confidentiality Agreements (CA’s) with the Company that will allow them to review technical data on our entire land portfolio in Tanzania,” Sinclair noted.

In addition, five other entities have signed CA’s for specific projects, with many of the confidentiality agreements covering the same projects. (For a map showing specific projects that are subject to CA’s please visit the Projects Section of the Company’s website at: www.tanzanianroyalty.com).

“Although we are working hard to develop the mineral potential on our entire portfolio of properties in Tanzania, we are focusing most of our fiscal resources on our core project, Kigosi, which we consider to be the most attractive gold exploration project in Tanzania at the present time,” Sinclair said.

Sinclair also confirmed that Tanzanian Royalty is being “courted by some well-heeled mining entities” which in large part is due to its long and successful track record in Tanzania which includes a sensitivity to the needs of indigenous Tanzanians and the environment in which they work and live.”

Respectfully Submitted,

“James Sinclair”

James E. Sinclair

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
