SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 28, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Global Prospecting Ventures, Inc. (Pink Sheets:GPVN) is pleased to announce results of an initial prospecting and sampling program conducted in July and August of 2005. This program has confirmed the presence of high-grade gold at the Company's Iron Horse-Bolivar Gold Project located in British Columbia, Canada. A summary of some of these results are as follows:
Au Au Ag Ag Cu (g/t) (oz/t) (g/t) (oz/t) (%) ------------------------------------------------------------------ 5.35 0.156 WestHorse Massive Pyrite Skarn 1.11 0.032 WestHorse Garnet Skarn 1-2% Py 21.3 1.03 WestHorse Mass-Sulphides 5-8 % Cu Py 4.09 0.119 40.6 1.184 4.95 NorthHorse 1m chip mass sulph. 10% Cu Py 13.7 0.400 6.3 NorthHorse 2m chip 80% sulphides 40.6 1.184 3.6 Bolivar W Grab alt. rusty bleached Volc. 1.32 0.038 Bolivar W 50 cm chip Rusty Qtz Vn OTCP
Global is very encouraged by these numbers as they are similar to results reported by previous operators. Previous outcrop sampling has returned values ranging from 8.2 g/t to 38.3 g/t (1.12 opt) gold. Grab samples of surface exposures have returned values ranging from 0.16 to 11.19 opt gold.
Our 2005 summer geological program has now been completed on the Iron Horse-Bolivar Gold Project. Additional samples of mineralized zones have been taken and results are pending. An independent consulting geologist has been retained to compile data and compose a geological report on the property.
