DRV Duran Ventures Inc.

Duran Ventures Inc. (TSX VENTURE:DRV)(BVL:DRV) ("Duran" or the "Company") is
pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement (the "Agreement")
whereby Duran has acquired by option three adjacent exploration concessions
immediately to the north, east and southeast of the Company's flagship Aguila
Copper-Molybdenum Porphyry Project in Peru. This new Agreement continues to
define Duran's strategy of timely and prudent financing and focus upon its
principal asset. The Company is also pleased to announce that it has increased
its land position to 3100 hectares at the Mamanina copper/molybdenum/gold
project and acquired the extensive historical database and drill core.


At Aguila:

The new concessions increase the exploration potential in the area and also give
the Company greater flexibility to establish infrastructure for a future mining
operation. The new concessions total 2200 hectares and expand the land position
in the immediate Aguila area to 11,100 hectares. All concessions under control
by Duran in this area are now contiguous. The attached map shows the location of
the new concessions.

Prospecting, sampling and mapping in the areas will commence immediately. The
terms of the Agreement allow for staged payments to the local Peruvian vendor
(the "Optionee") consisting of cash (US$2,650,000) and Duran common shares
(2,000,000 shares) as follows:




1.  US$100,000 and 2,000,000 common shares upon signing the Agreement; 
2.  US$125,000 twelve (12) months after signing the Agreement; 
3.  US$125,000 eighteen (18) months after signing the Agreement; 
4.  US$250,000 twenty-four (24) months after signing the Agreement; 
5.  US$250,000 thirty (30) months after signing the Agreement; 
6.  US$600,000 thirty-six (36) months after signing the Agreement; 
7.  US$600,000 forty-two (42) months after signing the Agreement; and 
8.  US$600,000 forty-eight (48) months after signing the Agreement; 



In the event of a production decision at the new concessions a 1% Net Smelter
Royalty will be payable to the Optionee. The Agreement is subject to certain
conditions including, but not limited to the receipt of all necessary approvals
including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. 


At Mamanina: 

The Mamanina property now consists of five concessions covering 3100 hectares
located south along the same geological (copper porphyry) belt as Duran's
flagship Aguila Cu-Mo property. Previous work performed by Queenstake Resources
Limited ("Queenstake") and Alamos Minerals Limited ("Alamos") in a joint venture
operated from 1995-1997, and Monterrico Metals PLC ("Monterrico") during
2001-2008, defined both porphyry copper-molybdenum and copper-gold-zinc skarn
mineralization on surface. 


Queenstake and Alamos found copper-molybdenum bearing porphyritic stocks hosted
by clastic and carbonate sediments at Mamanina. Carbonate replacement skarn-type
mineralization occurs at contacts between the intrusive and sedimentary units.
An airborne magnetic and radiometric geophysical survey defined an anomaly two
kilometres in diameter which coincides with these mineralized zones on surface. 


Sampling by Queenstake and Alamos returned grab sample values of up to 2.1%
copper, 0.6% zinc, and 9.48 grams of gold per tonne.


In late 2002 Monterrico carried out a five hole diamond drill program totalling
723 metres. The purpose of the program was to target near surface copper
mineralization in the skarn area. Historic results from the drilling showed
MDH-3 intersecting 30.1 metres of 1.44 % copper starting at 14.1 metre depth.
Historical data also shows good potential for gold mineralization hosted in
quartzites located 300 to 500 metres south of the historic drilling results. All
recently acquired historical data and drill core is currently being shipped to
the Aguila camp to be reviewed and verified. It should be noted that this data
is historic in nature and has not been verified.


Strategy: 

Duran has continued to successfully finance for the Company's needs (See news
release dated December 6, 2012). The Company looks forward to a mutually
beneficial relationship with the Peruvian investment community that has
augmented Duran's original Canadian shareholder base. The Company is focusing
and continuing to build upon its principal Aguila asset base in a new, emerging
Peruvian porphyry copper district. Aguila's initial inferred resource estimate
of 2.138 billion pounds of copper and 166 million pounds of molybdenum and 375
million pounds of copper and 22 million pounds of molybdenum in the indicated
category will remain attractive to shareholders and large international mining
organizations. Additionally, introducing strong partners to explore our
non-core, precious metal and polymetallic projects has provided an underlying
stream of option payments. The Company continues to build its inventory of
properties of merit - primarily via staking, and will continue to find strong
partners to fund exploration.
