 VENTURE:ABS) is pleased to announce further drilling results from its Phase Three reverse circulation drill program completed on the Pico Machay, High Sulphidation Gold Project in Peru. Highlights include ABS-157 intersecting 49.5m @ 1.69 g/t Au and 19.5m @ 1.27 g/t Au and ABS-163 intersecting 70.5m @ 1.17 g/t Au.

ABS-157 is the most westerly hole in the central zone and ABS-163 was a 75m step out to the northeast from ABS-143 (46.5m @ 1.49 g/t Au; see Company press releases dated June 8). The central zone of mineralisation is now over 600m in strike length and open to the west and northeast.

ABS-156 which intersected 18m @ 1.05 g/t Au is located 250m to the northeast of ABS-163 and is further evidence that the mineralisation continues around the contact of the dacite da·cite

 on the north and north-eastern extents of the dome have returned significant gold intercepts. Our geologists now have a greater understanding of the controls on mineralisation and our new geological model reflects this. We are now targeting the more than two kilometres of contact zone around the dacite dome as a genuine target to host more of the same."

A preliminary resource calculation will now be undertaken and a fourth round of drilling will be scheduled for the fourth quarter. Exploration of other targets within the 4km by 2km alteration system that is Pico Machay is continuing and updates of this exploration will be released on a regular basis.
