AuEx Ventures, Inc. (AuEx or Company) is pleased to announce that its joint venture partner Agnico-Eagle (USA), Limited (Agnico-Eagle) has commenced reverse circulation drilling at the Company's West Pequop exploration project located in Elko County, Nevada. Drilling will initially be focused in the Section 34 Target area that produced significant drill results during 2006 as reported by the Company in press release NR07-02 dated January 9, 2007. Reverse circulation and core drilling are planned in other areas of the project during the 2007 field season including Acrobat and Juggler.
AuEx is also pleased to announce that the West Pequop Joint Venture Agreement between Agnico-Eagle (USA), Ltd. and AuEx was signed on April 6, 2007 replacing the Letter of Intent signed by the parties in May 2006. All terms and conditions as described in the May 2006 Letter of Intent were incorporated into the final agreement and in addition, a backstop financing provision was added that would be available to the Company under certain circumstances.
AuEx Ventures, Inc. is a Nevada focused, precious metals exploration company with a current portfolio of 16 exploration projects in Nevada controlling over 50,000 acres of unpatented mining claims and fee land. Ten of the projects are in joint venture agreements with seven companies who provide exploration funding.
