KAT Exploration, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: KATX) and Bella Viaggio, Inc. (OTCBB: BVIG) are very happy to inform shareholders of the ongoing first phase drill program on its Handcamp high grade Gold property.

To date six (6) holes have been completed with the seventh in progress. All six holes have intersected the mineralized zone as outline in soil sampling, Induced Polarization(IP) and trenching. The purpose of the holes was to test mineralization near surface and at depth.

All holes have been drilled at an azimuth of 110 degrees perpendicular to the northeast strike of the 1.4 km structural zone that hosts Hand Camp mineralization.

As the first two drill holes, DDH-001 and DDH-002 were located on the same setup on line 2+00 South approximately 50m west of the Main Trench Showing (Trench #1). DDH-001 drilled at a dip of-45 degrees intersected mineralization from 68.0m to 79.0m for a total width of 11.0m (37.4ft). DDH 002 completed at a dip of-65 degrees intersected mineralization from 93.0m to 102.5m a total width of 9.5m(32.3ft).

As the third drill hole, DDH-003 was drilled at a dip of-45 degrees on line with DDH-001 and 002, approximately 25m from the Main Trench as a check on the consistency of mineralization from surface to DDH-001 and 002. It intersected mineralization from 36.0m to 49.0m over a total width of 11.0m(37.4ft).

The fourth and fifth holes DDH-004 and DDH-005 were completed on the same setup approximately 200m north of drill line DDH-001, 002 and 003 approximately 25m west from the Main Hand Camp showing.

DDH-004 completed at a dip angle of-45 degrees intersected mineralization from 29.1m to 45m over a width of 18.9m(64.3ft). DDH-005 drilled from the same setup at an angle of-65 degrees intersected mineralization from 39.4 to 82.6 a total width of 43.2m(146.9ft).

A sixth hole, DDH-006, recently completed at a dip angle of-45 degrees, 50m west of DDH-004 and DDH-005 intersected mineralization from 118m to 151m a total width of 33m(112.2ft) at a vertical depth of approximately 100m(340ft).

The seventh hole, DDH-007 being drilled from the same setup at a dip angle of-65 has been designed to test for the continuation of this mineralization down dip at a vertical depth of approximately 120m (408ft)... at a greater vertical depth than all previous drilling.

Zone #1 where the first 3 drill holes took place still show that mineralization continues at depth and will require deeper testing to determine the true depth of this area of the structure.

Zone # 2, 200m north of zone #1, where the latest 3 drill holes took place, showed even greater width at greater depths and is now being tested by DDH-007 to see if the mineralization continues.

President/CEO Ken Stead commented "We are very pleased and excited with the drill program thus far and we look forward to the lab results determining the gold and base metal contents. One would have to understand the significances of these drills holes hitting mineralization at such depths and width, with already known gold showings on surface above the drilled areas. And taking into consideration the amount of mineralization discovered along with the limited amount of drilling in comparison to the known depth and 1400m strike length of the mineralized structure, lends itself to huge potential for the Handcamp property.

Mr. Stead further states, "Samples from most of the holes drilled thus far have been logged and sent to the lab with a request to expedite analytical results. We will let our shareholders and investment community know as soon as we have the results from the lab."

Photos of the drill core attached to this press release along with others will be added to the KAT Exploration website shortly.
