Dear CMG Shareholder

We are pleased to present you with this opportunity to participate in the creation of a significant gold and base metal assets company.

Enclosed is the Bidder’s Statement from Venturex Resources Limited (Venturex) to acquire ALL your shares in CMG Gold Limited (CMG) and the Target’s Statement prepared by CMG, recommending that you accept the Offer.

Venturex is offering 4.25 Venturex Shares for every one (1) CMG Share held.

This revised Offer is superior to the previous Venturex offer for CMG announced on 3 April 2009 and provides increased certainty, reduced risk and more timely transaction completion for CMG Shareholders. In addition, the revised Offer will result in the Combined Entity emerging with a clean and simple capital structure.

CMG Directors have unanimously recommended that you ACCEPT this offer, in the absence of a superior offer.

The Directors of CMG have stated that they intend to accept the Offer in respect of all their shares (held directly or indirectly) and have entered into pre-bid acceptance deeds in respect of 19.9% of the issued capital of CMG.

By combining the Companies’ skills in asset development and corporate and commercial management, the Directors of Venturex and CMG believe that the Combined Entity will be well positioned to maximise the value of CMG’s gold projects.

The Offer is subject to a number of conditions which are set out in the Bidder’s Statement. These conditions include Venturex receiving Shareholders’ approval for the Offer at a General Meeting to be held on 17 June 2009, and Venturex having received valid acceptances for a minimum of 90% of issued CMG Shares.

The Offer is scheduled to close at 5.00pm AWST on 26 June 2009, unless the Offer is extended. We encourage you to carefully read the enclosed documents and ACCEPT the Offer.

The Board of Venturex looks forward to welcoming you as a Shareholder.

Yours sincerely

ALLAN TRENCH Non-Executive Chairman Venturex Resources Limited
