(CZX - TSX Venture, MTSZF - OTCBB, AOF7E1 - FWB), is pleased to report further assay results from its 2008 drill program on the zinc-lead-silver bearing Cardiac Creek (CC) deposit. The CC deposit is on the 100% owned Akie property in northeastern British Columbia, approximately 260 kilometres north-northwest of the town of Mackenzie.\n\n2008 Cardiac Creek Deposit Drill Program\n\nThe primary objectives of the 2008 drill program were to determine both the updip and on-strike extent of the CC deposit as well as to better define it within key selective areas. Information gained from this work will assist in forward planning for future exploration programs that may include advanced underground drilling and sampling activities.\n \nHole A-08-58 yielded an interval of 20.19 metres grading 9.35% zinc +lead (including 8.5 metres grading 11.67% zinc+lead). This intercept indicates that mineralization is still open in an updip direction from this hole. Holes A-08-64 (11.12 metres grading 9.03% zinc+lead) and A-08-66 (which includes 8.23 metres grading 6.96% zinc+lead) tested the southeastern extension of the deposit - these results are highly encouraging as they validate that mineralization remains open in this direction. Hole A-08-65 contains several high grade intervals (including 10.78 metres grading 13.07% zinc+lead) that confirm both the thickness and high grade of the CC deposit to the northwest. The high grade in hole A-08-60A (5.19 metres of 14.00% zinc+lead) supports the interpretation of a high grade core continuing to the northwest direction and highlights the value of some further drilling in this open area. In summary, the drilling completed to date indicates a strike length potentially exceeding 1 kilometer and a dip extent exceeding 550 metres. \n\nCompiled assay drill hole summary results derived from analytical data received from Acme Analytical Laboratories Ltd. of Vancouver, BC, for six additional holes are presented below.\n\n-***-...
