Maximus/NFX cut the Highest Gold Grade Intersected to Date in the Bear Lake Area at Larder Lake
Hole NFX08-35 intersects 18.3 g/t Au over 4.8 m, including 163.5g/t Au over 0.5m

LONGUEUIL, QUEBEC and TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - March 31, 2008) - Maximus Ventures Ltd. ("Maximus") (TSX VENTURE:MXV) and NFX Gold Inc. ("NFX") (TSX VENTURE:NFX) are pleased to announce today the results from the first four holes from its 2008 follow-up drilling program targeting the Bear Lake area of the Larder Lake Property in Ontario. Hole NFX08-35 intersected 4.8 metres of flow-type mineralization grading 18.3g/t gold, including a section of 0.5 meter, which yielded 163.5g/t gold. Hole NFX08-35 was drilled 450m up-dip and 50m east from hole NFX07-11, which intersected 10.2 meters grading 8.0 g/t Au (as reported on August 16, 2007). The intercept in hole NFX08-35 contains the highest single gold value encountered to date in the Bear Lake area.

The intercept in hole NFX08-35 was cut at 120m below surface, clearly showing that high-grade gold mineralization at Bear Lake occurs close to surface and extends at least 550m down-plunge and is open laterally for over 500m. This new intersection opens up a large area where significant tonnage and high gold grades could be present. Additional assay results from other intersections of hole NFX08-35 are pending.

Assay results from holes NFX08-26, 27 and 28 were also received and, although all holes did cut flow-type mineralization, they did not yield significant gold values. Based on geological interpretation of the ore zones at the now-closed Kerr-Addison Mine located 5km east of Bear Lake, both high-grade and low-grade shoots are to be expected within carbonate-type and flow-type mineralization at Bear Lake.

After a slow start-up in early February, due to the poor condition of the ice, a total of 11 holes (holes NFX08-24 to 35, totalling 4,480 metres) have been completed at Bear Lake during 2008 (see figure). The results from hole NFX08-35 are very encouraging and there are currently 3 drills working on the ice at Bear Lake. Drilling will continue to systematically test the Bear Lake Gold Zone along strike and down-plunge to a vertical depth of 1,000m, using a 125m to 150m hole spacing. This spacing will be adjusted as new assay results are received.

Larder Lake Property

Maximus is conducting the drilling program pursuant to the Option and Joint Venture Agreement between Maximus and NFX, whereby Maximus has the right to earn a 60% interest in NFX's 100% interest in the Cheminis, Fernland and Bear Lake claims and 45% interest in NFX's 100% owned Barber Larder claims, by expending $6 million on exploration by December 31, 2008. To date, Maximus have spent approximately $4,800,000.

As part of its QA/QC program, Maximus carries out check assays on the high-grade intersections with no discrepancies found in the assay results. The assays reported are the uncut average grades of all determinations from the same samples. The turnaround time for the reception of assay results from the lab is around 1.5 week (rush) to 3 weeks.

The technical content of the information, related to Larder Lake, was reviewed by Mr. Bernard Boily, P. Geo., responsible for supervising the drilling program and qualified person for Maximus under the guidelines of National Instrument 43-101. The analytical method for gold is one (1) assay-ton fire assay, AA determination with gravimetric finish on all samples reporting over 2 grams per tonne (g/t) gold. All assays reporting over 10g/t Au are automatically re-checked using the rejects. Assaying is done at Laboratoire Expert Inc. in Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec. The quality control process includes inserting blank samples and certified standards within each batch sent to the laboratory.

4,8 m mit 18.3g AU/t oder 0.5 m mit 163.5g AU/t ...

Das sind eigentlich "sensationelle" BE´s!

Allerdings ist mal wieder die Reaktion des Marktes (bisher) ein Witz!!! :-(

Da hauen NFX hier BE´s raus, die bei jedem anderen Gold-Explorer zu einer
Explosion des Kurses ausgereicht hätten und den Canis fällt nichts besseres
ein, als die Aktie zu verkaufen???

Muß NFX erst fertige Goldbarren im Boden finden, damit die Canis kaufen???

Sorry, aber das ist für mich überhaupt nicht nachvollziehbar! Das war das beste
BE was NFX überhaupt jemals abgeliefert haben!??

Das ist mir echt zu hoch!!!

163g AU/t...  Haaaaaaallllllllllooooooooo????   :-(

PS:  Vielleicht sind ja in den anderen Löchern fertige Goldbarren???

weiß gemacht das man die Charttechnik bei Explorern nicht anwenden kann,
aber wie man sieht kann man es doch!
Wir sind in einer Abwärtsrange und da gibt es wohl noch kein entkommen!
