ASX RELEASE 28 June 2007
ASX CODE DTM
VERY HIGH GRADE GOLD INTERSECTED FROM INITIAL DART MINING DRILL PROGRAM
Newly listed gold exploration company Dart Mining NL (ASX: DTM) today announced the outstanding results of the company's first drill program undertaken at the Mountain View Prospect in the Dart Goldfield. Drilling has identified high grade gold from surface with the most significant intersect in hole MVD20 achieving $6m \& 21.79$ g/t gold including 2m $@$ 59.25 g/t gold from 3 metres depth.
Other results include:
Hole MVD19 from 4 metres Hole MVD17 from 3 metres Hole MVD04 from 9 metres 7m @ 6.16g/t gold, including 2m @ 8.99 g/t gold 6m @ 6.05g/t gold, including $4m \otimes 8.36$ g/t gold 3m @ 6.57g/t gold
These results, together with the rest of the assays shown in Table 1 and the results from drilling undertaken in 2006 prior to the Company's listing shown in Table 2, confirm the high grade nature of the sulphide hosted gold mineralisation at Mountain View.
The 18 hole drilling program covered some 140m of strike extent and tested to a depth of some 40m from surface. The program was designed to provide both close spaced infill information and to extend the mineralised horizon at Mountain View to gain a better understanding of the tenor and controls on the gold mineralisation. Surface soil sampling undertaken to determine future drilling locations at the Prospect has produced one outcrop sample some 40 metres west of the main mineralised zone, assayed 106 g/t gold. Preliminary interpretation suggests multiple steeply plunging high grade, sulphide rich lenses and further deep drilling is planned and will be undertaken using a drill rig with significantly greater depth capacity than the one available for this program.
This phase of the drill program is now complete, with the final assay results expected shortly. These, together with the results and interpretation of ongoing soil sampling and geophysics, will be reported in the Quarterly Activities Report due for release during July 2007
"These are excellent results from Dart's first drill program at Mountain View and while preliminary are nonetheless exciting. It certainly confirms our confidence in the project and in the application of modern technology to a region that has had little exploration in decades," Chief Executive Officer John Quayle said.

Project Background
The Dart Goldfield is located some 45km south of Corryong in NE Victoria. It comprises a number of shallow mines from the 1890s where the gold is associated with sulphide rich lode structures. Dart Mining has commenced evaluation of this goldfield by drilling at Mountain View. Other mines in the goldfield will be mapped and sampled in order to prioritise further drilling opportunities.
