26 Kimberlite Targets Identified On Kuvo Concession Using Landsat


Vancouver, BC (SPX) Jun 13, 2005
A report prepared for Gee-Ten Ventures by Earth Resource Surveys has identified 26 kimberlite structures on the Company's Kuvo Concessions located in the Huambo Province of Angola. The report has also demonstrated areas of surface disturbance due to recent mining activity.

The primary objective of the study was to search for changes over time that may have occurred between September 1986 and August 2001 in land use patterns that would be indicative of diamond activity.

A number of kimberlites are now known to be present within the Kuvo Concession and it is considered possible that unreported alluvial mining near other kimberlite occurrences on diamondiferous placers may have taken place. Such instances could serve as valuable prospecting and exploration guides.

In addition to the land study, the satellite imagery permits a synoptic view of the terrain and regional structures where possible; geological structures were also delineated from satellite imagery.

William Jarvis, a "qualified person" as that term is defined in National Instrument policy 43-101, has reviewed the contents of this news release; as well, the Company anticipates completing a NI 43-101 report on the property at some point in the future.

On a further matter, the Company is pleased to announce the appointment of Lee Balak, a Vancouver businessman, to the Company's Board of Directors. Mr. Balak has executed a management agreement with the Company.
