Venus Metals Corporation Limited (ASX:VMC) provides the Company's latest presentation titled "The Historic Youanmi Gold Mine".

THE YOUANMI GOLD MINE

- Youanmi is one of the last big WA gold mines to be re-examined for production under today's high gold prices of AUD$1,700/oz.

- The Youanmi Gold Mine closed in 1995 with gold prices at AUD$450/oz after producing over 670,000 ounces at an average 5.4g/t Au.

- Venus has entered into two option agreements to enable it to purchase the Youanmi Gold Mine.

- Venus has upgraded all open pit and high grade underground resources to JORC 2012 compliance after extensive modelling of the existing 15,183 drill hole data base.

- Further major upside potential has been identified through the concept of developing a single "super pit" over a 2km strike zone (connecting all existing pits from surface).

- Drilling has shown significant potential for high grade resource extensions at depth.

- Venus holds all the surrounding exploration acreage where EM surveys have outlined extensive anomalies for testing to provide new discovery opportunities.
