 VENTURE:AMS AMS - Andrew Message System ) is pleased to announce that it has completed a 50 km ground magnetic survey that has identified at least five epithermal gold silver targets on its Roy and Hills properties in the prolific Walker Lane of West Central Nevada.

The Roy property encountered four large magnetic low anomalies that are situated along a regional, east-west trending magnetic linear that is interpreted to be a district-scale controlling structure. The size of the Roy alteration system is similar in scale and alteration type to the historic Tonopah District which produced over 3 million gold equivalent ounces from underground operations. Previous drilling was never conducted on the magnetic low targets.

The Hills property ground magnetics encountered a district-scale, east-west trending magnetic gradient with most surface alteration found within the magnetic low.

 present within the target areas is reminiscent to that seen in the prolific Comstock Lode at Virginia City and is indicative of the upper levels of an epithermal vein system. The structure surveyed on the Hills property is of district size and potential.

The Roy and Hills properties are located 45 miles northwest of Tonopah within the Roysten Hills and had been previously geochem sampled by Amera with several rock samples attaining ore grades for gold and silver. Host rocks on Roy consist of 23-16 ma volcanic rocks of dacite da·cite

The recently completed ground magnetic survey was conducted by Quantec Geophysics and consisted of 200 meter-spaced lines with 10 meter-spaced sample points.

Amera is leveraging its extensive contact network, is actively exploring in Argentina, Peru and Nevada and continues to negotiate for the acquisition of additional properties in the Americas. The Company is committed to growth and added shareholder value through gold and precious metal-rich polymetallic discoveries.

The Grosso Group - Amera enjoys a close association with The Grosso Group, giving the Company exposure to an extensive array of mineral opportunities and access to the Group's global financial network. The Grosso Group has enjoyed tremendous success in the exploration field, most notably with IMA (Interactive Multimedia Association, Annapolis, MD) An earlier trade association founded in 1988 originally as the Interactive Video Industry Association. It provided an open process for adopting existing technologies and was involved in subjects such as networked services, scripting  Exploration Inc., and is comprised of a team of seasoned professionals led by Mr. Joseph Grosso. This affiliation enables Amera to fast track its property acquisition and exploration strategies.
