[{"type":"text","content":"Aurvista Significantly Extends Main Porphyry Target, and Continues to Confirm Higher Gold Grade Intervals(via Thenewswire.ca)\n \n \nMontreal, Quebec - May 29, 2013: Aurvista Gold Corporation (\"Aurvista\" or the \"Company\") (TSX-V: AVA) is pleased to report that all assay results have been received from the first two phases of the 2013 diamond drill program at the Company's Douay Gold Project (the \"Project\"). The Project is located within the Abitibi Greenstone Belt some 150 kilometers north of Val-d'Or (Quebec) and is situated next to Provincial Highway #109 running between Amos and Matagami (Quebec). The Company would like to report that the Main Porphyry zone, which was approximately 3 kilometers in length, has now been extended by approximately 200 meters to the east and 200 meters to the west. The infill drill program also continued to produce higher gold grade assay results which confirm high grade gold lenses within the larger lower grade gold mineralized envelopes.\n\n \n \nRichard Adams, President and CEO of Aurvista, comments on the recent results; \"These latest assay results along with the previously announced results on May 3, 2013 continue to show the strength of the gold system at the Douay Project. The current and previously announced results indicate a significant extension of the Main Porphyry zone to the east, the west and to the south. These results also indicated substantial potential to locate multiple parallel mineralized zones which could run for up to 1.5 kilometers south of the Main Porphyry zone. These mineralized zones could greatly contribute to the overall gold potential of the Douay Project.\" \n\n \n \nMr. Adams also added, \"The assay results continued to show higher grade gold intercepts within the large lower grade envelope of gold mineralization. These newly discovered higher grade gold lenses present a significant strategic advantage to the Douay Project, as the Project now has the flexibility to use either a lower grade bulk tonnage model or a higher grade, multiple operation model in future development scenarios.\" \n\n \nKey highlights of the latest assays include:\n\n \n \n-The in-fill drilling of the Main Porphyry confirmed several higher grade gold zones previously drilled at 200 meter drill spacings, now drilled at 150 meter or less spacings. Key results include 2.06 g/t Gold over ...
