BFS DRILLING CONTINUES TO REVEAL HIGHER GRADE COPPER AT MONS CUPRI

HIGHLIGHTS

Further Drill Result Extends Mons Cupri Copper Zone

Resource Tonnes and Grade to Increase

ASX Announcement ASX Code: VXR Released: 26 July 2011

For further details Dr Tim Sugden Managing Director T: +61 8 6389 7400 M: +61 407 085 032 [email protected]

Venturex Resources Limited (ASX Code: VXR) (“Venturex”) has received assay results for MCD004, the second diamond drill hole in the recently completed metallurgical sampling program at the Mons Cupri copper-zinc deposit. The hole intersected:

102.7 metres @ 1.69% Cu, 1.28% Zn and 29g/t Ag (2.42% Cu EQ),

including

60.8 metres @ 2.47% Cu, 1.98% Zn and 42.7/t Ag (3.57% Cu EQ).

This large intersection is 45 metres along strike from the previously reported intersection in hole MCD003 (121.75 metres @ 1.24 % Cu) and further extends and increases the grade of the main copper zones at Mons Cupri. The true width of the total copperzinc zone is approximately 80 metres, including a 36 metre thick high grade zone (>3% Cu EQ). This zone is substantially thicker and higher grade than previous interpretations.

The third hole, MCD005, intersected weak Zn-Pb-Ag mineralisation on the periphery of the existing resource model.

The higher grades intersected in the central part of the proposed open pit will further enhance the economics of the current Bankable Feasibility Study. To date, metallurgical assay results have been received for three out of the five holes in the diamond drilling program. The Mons Cupri Resource will be recalculated when all metallurgical assay results have been received.

Managing Director Tim Sugden said, “ This excellent new result highlights the quality of the Mons Cupri copper-zinc deposit and further demonstrates the potential for increases in both the size and grade of the resource.

Mons Cupri Cross Section 7690885mN

Exploration drilling of copper-zinc targets to the south and along strike of Mons Cupri is ongoing. RC pre-collars have been drilled to an average depth of 150 metres and diamond tails to test the VMS horizon associated with the Mons Cupri conglomerate unit have now commenced.
