Exploration Commences at Trend Project, Nevada
NDT Ventures Ltd. (TSX-V:NDE and OTCBB:NDTVF)has been notified by project partner Nevada Contact Inc. (NCI), a subsidiary ofSudbury Contact Mines Ltd. (TSX-V:SUD), that an exploration program has commenced at NDT’s Trend Project. In May of 2004, NDT granted NCI an option to acquire up to 65% interest in the Trend Project.
The Trend Project consists of a large block of mineral claims owned by NDT adjoining the southern end of the Cortez Joint Venture (Cortez JV), a segment of the northwest striking Battle Mountain-Eureka mineral trend in north central Nevada. This district is host to the Pipeline, South Pipeline, South Pipeline Extension (Cross Roads), Gap, Gold Acres, Horse Canyon, Pediment and Cortez Hills deposits, with reported reserves/resources exceeding 18 million ounces of gold.
The Trend Project lies approximately 8 kilometers south southeast of Cortez Hills and on strike with the lineation of known deposits within the district. A significant enzyme leach soil anomaly suggesting underlying gold mineralization occurs on the Company's claims along this lineation.
A contract has been let to provide detailed aeromagnetic data and interpretation of the project area. Results of this work are expected by October. NCI has also designed and commissioned a detailed, ground-based gravity survey of the entire project area. Work on the gravity survey will commence in September.
The objective of both the aeromagnetic and gravity surveys is to provide interpretations that can be used to delineate structure, lateral extent of geologic bodies and depth estimates of covered geologic units. This data, coupled with geological and geochemical results provided by NDT and others, will be used to design an initial drill program planned for late 2004 or early 2005.
On Behalf of the Board,
NDT VENTURES LTD.
