Vior Cuts High-Grade Gold Intersection on its Douay Property.MONTREAL -- Vior (TSX TSX Toronto Stock Exchange (TSE before April, 2002) TSX Transfer from Stack Pointer to Index TSX True Space Extension VENTURE:VIO VIO Violation VIO Virtual Input/Output (MVS access method) VIO Video Interpreter/Operator VIO Victims' Information Officer (Corrections Department, Montana) VIO Vector Input Output )is pleased to announce the first results of its winter drilling program currently underway at its Douay Project, 60 kilometres south of Matagami, north-western Quebec. These results were obtained from three exploration holes drilled on a sector known as the Central Porphyry Porphyry, Greek scholar Porphyry (pôr`fĭrē), c.232–c.304, Greek scholar and Neoplatonic philosopher. He studied rhetoric under Cassius Longinus and philosophy under Plotinus. Zone. (Figure 1). This drilling campaign resulted in the recognition, close to surface, of at least two new gold structures in the vicinity of the Central Porphyry Zone. The better drill intersections returned 2888.1 g/t Au over 0.5 metre (92.8 oz/t Au over 1.6 feet), 12 g/t Au over 3 metres and 5.9 g/t Au over 1 metre.

Drill-Hole DO-05-3 This hole was drilled to verify the near surface extensions of the Central Porphyry Zone, 100 metres above drill-hole DY-97-3 that intersected 1.0 g/t Au over 22 metres in a porphyry with disseminated disseminated /dis·sem·i·nat·ed/ (-sem´i-nat?ed) scattered; distributed over a considerable area. dis·sem·i·nat·ed adj.

More interestingly, 3 additional higher grade zones were encountered, to the south, in the center and north of the Central Porphyry Zone. Two decimetric porphyry dykes and their respective footwalls and hanging walls returned values of 12.0 g/t Au over 3.0 metres and 5.9 g/t Au over 1.0 metre.

Geo. commented these results: "We are very excited by this new high grade gold discovery in the vicinity of the Central Porphyry Zone. Prior to these results, this area was recognized for its strong potential as a large tonnage TONNAGE, mar. law. The capacity of a ship or vessel. 2. The act of congress of March 2, 1799, s. 64, 1 Story's L. U. S. 630, directs that to ascertain the tonnage of any ship or vessel, the surveyor, &c. , low grade gold deposit. Results from drill-hole DO-05-4 suggest that this area also offers significant potential for the discovery of a very high grade gold deposit. Our exploration approach will thus be adjusted so that we can acquire a better geological understanding of this area." On-going Drilling Program The current 2005-2006 drilling campaign will continue as planned and future results will be reported as soon as they become available. Quality Control Drilling on the Douay and Douay West properties is supervised by Vice-President of Exploration and Acquisitions, Marco Gagnon, geologist. Mr. Gagnon is the Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 and has been active in mining exploration since 1988. Vior has instigated a control and analytical quality assurance protocol for its gold exploration programs. This procedure includes the systematic addition of blank samples and certified See certification. standards to approximately each ten batch samples sent for gold analysis at commercial laboratories. Blank samples are used to check for possible contamination in laboratories while certified standards determine the analytical accuracy and precision. Analyzed samples coming from half cut NQ cores and with lengths varying from 1 to 1.5 metres are sent for analysis to Laboratoire Expert Inc. in Rouyn-Noranda. Samples are assayed by fire-assay followed by atomic absorption or gravimetry gra·vim·e·ter n. 1. An instrument used to measure specific gravity. 2.

Moreover, each pulp with significant mineralized intersections from drill-hole DO-05-4 was sent to a second laboratory to confirm the results. Douay Properties Since 1986 Vior and its previous partners have discovered six distinct gold bearing zones within an eight kilometre segment of this project, including the Douay West Zone which contains an indicated resource of 515,000 metric tonnes at 5.94 g/t Au and an inferred resource of 529,000 metric tonnes at 5.43 g/t Au, the Main Zone with an inferred resource of 300,000 tonnes at 4.8 g/t Au, the 531 Zone with an inferred resource of 730,000 tonnes at 4.9 g/t Au and three porphyry zones. (NI 43-101 - Geostat Systems International Inc., 2005). The Douay Property is accessible by a 5 kilometre gravel road A gravel road is a type of unpaved road surfaced with gravel that has been brought to the site from a quarry or stream bed. They are common in less-developed nations, and also in the rural areas of developed nations such as Canada and the United States. from regional highway 109 joining the towns of Amos and Matagami. The surface infrastructures at the Douay West site comprise a mechanical shop, offices, dry, compressor compressor, machine that decreases the volume of air or other gas by the application of pressure. Compressor types range from the simple hand pump and the piston-equipped compressor used to inflate tires to machines that use a rotating, bladed element to achieve room, electrical station, shaft and hoist hoist: see winch. . Profile Vior is a Quebec based exploration company whose strategy is to explore and develop gold and base metal properties in proven and accessible mining areas. The Company wholly owns the Douay West gold project which is at a pre-feasibility stage and other gold and base metal exploration interests in the best mining areas of Quebec. INCO INCO International Cooperation INCO International Nickel Company INCO Instrumentation & Communications Officer (NASA Mission Control Flight Controller) INCO Installation & Checkout INCO Infanteriecompagnie (Dutch) is the largest shareholder of Vior with a 17% interest.
