MPH Ventures Expands Historical Intersection on Raney Gold Project
Vancouver, BC - MPH Ventures Corp. (TSX-V: MPS) (FWB: IJA1) (the
"Company") reports drill core assay results from a hole completed by
a previous operator of the Raney Gold Project in northeastern
Ontario. While examining the core from drill hole RAN-08-04, an
un-sampled section with appreciable quartz veining and sericite
alteration was identified and sampled. The split section returned
an assay of 14.38 g/t Au over 1.7 metres, and is contiguous with the
historical intersection in hole RAN-08-04 of 2.76 g/t Au over 15.5
metres.

are include in Table 1. Photographs of the drill core for this
intersection are posted on the MPH website.

MPH president Jim Pettit commented "The review of the work by
previous operators has provided us with some very positive results
within the early stages of the exploration program. The results
demonstrate the exceptional exploration potential of the Raney
project, with robust widths and grades. It is notable that only a
couple of drill holes have ever tested this promising alteration
system. At this point we have mobilized a drill to the property and
look forward to future results from this intriguing property."
MPH Ventures has commenced the drilling of 2 drill holes (Ran-09-06
and Ran-09-07) as step-out holes to the east and west on strike to
the historic drill holes.
A drill plan providing the location of the historical drill holes is
located on the MPH website.
The exploration program is being carried out under the direction of
Todd Keast, PGeo. The information in this news release was prepared
by Todd Keast, PGeo. a qualified person as defined by National
Instrument 43-101.
The company has a quality control program to ensure best practices in
the sampling and analysis of drill core. At the drill site, the BQ
size core is placed in core boxes and delivered to a secure core
processing facility. The core is "split" using a diamond saw by
experienced exploration technicians and logged by Todd Keast. Half
of the core is left in the core box as a permanent reference of the
interval sampled and half of the designated sample interval is
delivered in sealed bags for preparation at ALS Chemex Prep Lab
located in Sudbury, Ontario, with the pulps shipped to ALS Chemex
Assay Laboratory in Vancouver, B.C. All samples are assayed for gold
by Fire Assay with an AA finish, using 30 gram samples. Accuracy of
results are tested through the systematic inclusion of blanks and
reference standards. ALS Chemex is an ISO 17025 certified
Laboratory.
MPH Ventures Corp. is a gold and molybdenum exploration company
