Valley High Ventures Ltd. ("Valley High") (TSX VENTURE: VHV) is
pleased to announce the results of the remaining drill holes
completed during the phase 2 drill program at the Cordero silver,
gold, zinc and lead, porphyry district located 35 kilometres
northeast of Hidalgo Del Parral, Chihuahua, Mexico. Results
presented in this release were drilled in two areas, the diatreme
breccia hosted Pozo de Plata Zone and the recently identified
Porphyry Zone some 1,300 metres east of Pozo de Plata. Drilling at
Pozo de Plata has extended the zone an additional 180 metres south
from previous limits of drilling (hole C10-39) and indicates the
zone may connect with earlier drilled holes C09-1 and C09-2, an
additional 225 metres to the southwest. The zone remains open to
the north, west and to the south. Phase 2 drilling comprised 19,679
metres of diamond core drilling in 52 holes.
Pozo De Plata
The Pozo De Plata Zone was first drilled in October 2009 with 3
out of 4 holes returning significant values in silver, gold, zinc
and lead including exceptional values in discovery hole C09-5.
Phase 2 drilling commenced in January, 2010 and has focused on 50
metre grid drilling surrounding hole C09-5 and some larger
step-outs to the southwest towards holes C09-1 and C09-2. Drilling
to date has outlined an area of mineralization some 465 metres long
by 200 metres wide and with mineralized diatreme-hosted intervals
at depths up to 300 metres. The zone may connect with holes C09-1
and C09-2 farther south for an additional 290 metres of potential
strike length. Current limits to the zone are based on an arbitrary
30 g/T Ag equivalent cutoff, as explained below, however
surrounding material is often mineralized at lower grades.
Highlights from these latest results include those from hole
C10-60 that returned two intervals, the first starting from 4
metres depth for a core length of 100 metres that grades 31.7 g/T
Ag, 0.08 g/T Au 0.34% Zn and 0.38% Pb, and a deeper interval
starting at 228 metres that returned a 62 metre core interval that
grades 22.3 g/T Ag, 0.01 g/T Au, 2.05 % Zn and 0.43% Pb. This hole
is located 149 metres south of previously drilled hole C10-39 and
along with nearby holes C10-52 and C10-53 indicates a 180 metre
extension of the Pozo De Plata Zone. Furthermore, these holes
indicate that mineralization may be contiguous with intervals
encountered in holes C09-1 and C09-2 drilled in the fall of 2009,
some 290 metres farther to the southwest.
The zone is also open for expansion to the north where two holes
returned strong values including hole C10-46 with three mineralized
intervals including 118 metres grading 51.0 g/T Ag, 0.40 g/T Au,
0.41% Zn and 0.96% Pb starting at 158 metres and hole C10-55 with 4
mineralized intervals including 60 metres grading 49.3 g/T Ag, 0.50
g/T Au, 0.54% Zn and 0.78% Pb starting at 142 metres.
Drilling to date has identified a tabular mineralized diatreme
breccia zone along northeast trending, mineralized rhyolite and
dacite dyke swarms, which have themselves been incorporated into
the mineralized diatreme breccias. Large blocks of limestone
country rocks occur as septa and clasts with the diatremes.
Footwall limestone country rocks enclose the diatreme breccia
bodies along highly irregular and locally, pipe-like contact
surfaces. The areal extent of the diatremes has yet to be defined
by drilling or mapping.
Though some sulfides are exposed at the surface, supergene
weathering generally ranges to depths of 10 to 27 metres. Oxidation
is minimal extending to only 25 metres depth. Sulfide minerals,
sphalerite, galena and possible silver sulphosalts occur as
diatreme clasts, disseminated grains and massive accumulations in
the diatreme breccia matrix and veins of massive sulfide and high
grade replacement mineralization after large limestone clasts
within the diatreme.
Porphyry Zone
The Porphyry Zone is located on the east side of the Cordero
Dome approximately 1,300 metres northeast of the Pozo De Plata
zone. This zone comprises a series of nested, altered and
mineralized igneous intrusive bodies (stocks) within the eastern
contact zone of the Cordero Felsic Dome Complex. The stocks have
associated elevated Ag, Au, Zn, and Pb rock chip and soil sample
anomalies and high grade Ag vein zones exploited by small scale
underground workings. The stocks are presently thought to be rooted
in a larger mineralized igneous intrusive body at depth, between
the Cordero Felsic Dome and the La Ceniza limestone roofed stock to
the northeast.
The Porphyry Zone has been tested by 8 holes over a distance of
1,200 metres with encouraging results being previously reported
from holes C09-3, C09-8 and C010-41. Results presented here include
significant results from holes C10-27 and C10-29 as outlined in
Table 1 below.
Intervals reported below in Table 1 are core lengths and true
widths are unknown.
Phase 3 Exploration Program
The recently completed phase 2 program comprised 19,679 metres
of drilling, soil sampling, trenching, geological mapping and
airborne geophysics. This program has focused on grid drilling of
the Pozo de Plata zone, initial drill testing of the Porphyry Zone,
the Josefina Zone and the Dos Mil Diez Zone as well as surface work
on targets to the west covering a total strike length of 15
kilometres. This work has been successful in outlining an area of
mineralization at Pozo de Plata that remains open to expansion. In
addition first pass drill testing of the Porphyry and Josefina
zones has returned long intervals of silver, gold, zinc and lead
mineralization that require follow-up grid drilling. Surface work
continues to outline targets for first drill testing throughout the
property. An expanded drill intensive phase three program is
currently being established.

(i) Silver equivalent grade, based on assumed recoveries, is calculated
using the following metal prices: silver at $15 per ounce, gold at
$1,000 per ounce, zinc at 90 cents per pound, lead at 90 cents per
pound and assumed recoveries (metallurgical and smelter deductions)
of 70% for silver and gold and 50% for zinc and lead. Actual metal
recoveries have not been determined. Summary assay intervals as
reported above were selected based on a 30 g/T Ag equivalent cut-off
with inclusion of up to no more than 10 metres of internal below
cut-off values averaging not less than 15 g/T Ag equivalent.
QA/QC Procedures and Reporting Parameters
HQ diameter core samples were collected in continuous two-metre
lengths by sawing. All of the samples mentioned in this release
were prepared and analyzed by ALS Chemex at its labs in Chihuahua,
Mexico, and Vancouver, Canada respectively. Gold analyses were
performed by 30-gram fire assay with an atomic absorption finish.
Silver, zinc and lead were analyzed as part of a multi-element
inductively coupled argon plasma ("ICP") package using a four-acid
digestion with over-limit results being reanalyzed with assay
procedures using ICP-AES.
The project is under the direct supervision of Vic Chevillon,
MA, CPG, Vice-President of Exploration for Levon Resources Ltd.
("Levon"). The company employs a rigorous quality assurance and
quality control program that include standardized material, blanks
and duplicates. AMEC Americas Ltd. has designed the QAQC protocol
from a study and review of information provided by the company to
AMEC. Robert Cameron, PGeo, who is a qualified person within the
context of National Instrument 43-101, has read and takes
responsibility for this news release.
The property comprises wholly-owned claims and consolidated land
agreements that total about 20,000 hectares and is being explored
in a Joint Venture with Levon wherein Levon is 51% owner and
operator of the project.
