Geoinformatics Enters Into A Joint Venture With Redton Resources Inc. Covering 118,000 Hectares Of Contiguous Claims In The Quesnel Trough, British Columbia.

TORONTO -- Geoinformatics Exploration Inc (TSX VENTURE:GXL) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a Joint Venture Agreement with Redton Resources Inc ("Redton") covering 118,000 hectares of contiguous claims in the Quesnel Trough, British Columbia (Figure 1). The Redton claim block which also includes the 4 Takla-Rainbow claims under option from Mr Lorne Warren, is highly prospective for alkalic-related deposits of copper-gold porphyry and epithermal gold affinity. It represents one of the largest contiguous claim holdings in British Columbia.

Prospectivity for Copper Gold Deposits in Alkali Porphyry Terranes

Alkalic igneous rocks are well documented around the world for their association with gold and gold-copper mineralization, being hosts to Porgera and Ok Tedi in Papua New Guinea, Emperor in Fiji, Cadia in Australia and Cripple Creek in the United States.

Alkalic igneous rocks are well-represented in British Columbia in the co-genetic Stikine and Quesnel Terranes, which together host the gold-rich porphyry copper deposits of Afton, Mt Polley, Galore Creek, Kemess and Mt Milligan. The Redton claim package is within the Quesnel Terrane and lies between the Lorraine deposit to the north and the Mt Milligan deposit to the south (Figure 2).

Propectivity of Project Area

Approximately half of the project area is underlain by Jurassic to Triassic shallow-water island-arc volcanics, volcaniclastics and sediments intruded by plutonic rocks of the same age and tectonic setting.

The other half of the project area has a slightly deeper erosional level and is underlain by late Triassic to Cretaceous island arc intrusives

of highly variable composition.

Redton initially focused on the area because it displayed a concentration of high gold values that corresponded with alkali intrusive and extrusive rocks. The last major phase of exploration in the area was undertaken in the period 1988 to 1992 when over $2.6 million was expended on and immediately adjacent to the property by a number of companies including Teck Resources, Golden Rule Resources, Cathedral Gold and Placer Dome. However the area has not been covered by modern-day geochemical and geophysical techniques which have proven effective at locating alkali porphyry copper and gold deposits elsewhere in the world.

Redton has put together a comprehensive GIS database of information on previous exploration programs in the project area. This compilation and interpretation of results has pointed to two immediately identifiable multi-element geochemical anomalies that are characteristic of porphyry copper-gold mineralisation. This is in addition to significant gold mineralization on the Takla Rainbow claims.

The immediate focus of exploration will be confirmation and follow-up of identified geochemical anomalies and scoping of an aeromagnetic and radiometric survey to cover the project area.

Joint Venture Agreement and Takla Rainbow Option 

Under the Joint Venture Agreement, Geoinformatics has the right to earn an 85% interest in the Redton claim block by incurring total expenditures of $4.75million over five years and making payments to Redton of $250,000 over four years plus a further $250,000 following completion of a feasibility study which recommends the placing of the property into commercial production. Redton's 15% interest will be free carried until the completion of a feasibility study at which time its interest converts to a 3% net smelter return royalty 1.5% of which may be acquired for $6.5 million. Geoinformatics paid $50,000 to Redton upon signature of the Joint Venture Agreement and cannot withdraw from the Agreement until it has spent a minimum of $500,000 in exploration expenditure.

Payments due to Mr Lorne Warren for the Takla-Rainbow claims are $135,000 over three years with the first payment of $25,000 due on 1 July 2005. Following the payments in the first three years, Mr Warren has the right to be paid $20,000 per annum as an advance royalty payment until the Takla-Rainbow property is placed into commercial production. Mr Warren retains a 3% net smelter return royalty which can be purchased for $3 million in total.

Kennecott Exploration Company has agreed to include the Redton and Takla Rainbow claim blocks within the broad ambit of their West Cordilleran Strategic Alliance Agreement with Geoinformatics and as such Kennecott will have a back in right on the project in terms of which it would ultimately be entitled to obtain a 58% interest in the project. The Redton project integrates perfectly into the work that Geoinformatics is carrying out under the West Cordilleran agreement which includes the building of a geodynamic three dimensional model of British Columbia and the acquisition of properties of merit previously identified by Kennecott.
