Valley High Ventures Ltd. ("Valley High" or the "Company") (TSX
VENTURE: VHV) is pleased to announce that Levon Resources Ltd.
("Levon"), as Operator of the Cordero Joint Venture, has reported
the initial assays from the ongoing Phase III exploration and drill
program ("P3 Program") currently underway at the Company's 49%
owned Cordero silver, gold, zinc and lead project located 35
kilometres northeast of Hidalgo Del Parral, Chihuahua, Mexico.
The P3 Program began on October 1, 2010 and is budgeted for $14
million which includes a planned 59,000 metres of core drilling,
initial metallurgical/engineering studies and continued surface
exploration. An update on the P3 Program was recently provided in
News Release 10-18, dated December 16, 2010. The P3 Program is
fully funded with Valley High having advanced approx. $7 million to
Levon to fund this exploration program.
Targets being tested and reported herein as part of the P3
Program include the areas around the Pozo De Plata and Porphyry
zones, wide spaced testing of the southern edge of the Cordero Dome
including south of the Josefina Mine trend and outlying targets
west of Pozo de Plata.
Initial Phase III Drill Results (summarized from Levon's News
Release dated January 13, 2011)
Porphyry Zone
Of the 37 holes reported, 13 holes were drilled in the Porphyry
Zone, with the highlight hole being C10-87, near the northern
extent of the zone, that returned multiple intervals including 124
m grading 26.3 g/T Ag, 0.019 g/T Au, 0.77% Zn, 0.60% Pb (67.8 g/T
Ag equivalent). Hole C10-87 is located 240 m southwest of hole
C10-41 that had returned similar encouraging values (170 m grading
17.33 g/T Ag, 0.03 g/T Au, 0.638 % Zn, 0.438 % Pb (62.9 g/T Ag
equivalent).
The Porphyry zone remains open and requires continued step out
drilling to delineate the mineralization.
Pozo de Plata Diatreme
Of the 37 holes reported, 20 holes were drilled in the Pozo de
Plata zone with drilling N, SW, S and SE of the Pozo de Plata zone
drill grid. Drilling to the NW (holes C10-63, C10-65) has limited
the deposit's extent in that direction but it remains open to the
south and partially to the north.
Discussion of Results
Initial drill results from the P3 drill program have tested a
broad range of targets. At the Porphyry zone located some 1,100
metres northeast of the Pozo De Plata zone new drilling results
from holes C10-87 and C10-72 together with previous drill results
from hole C10-41 have identified an area 250 metres by 300 metres
that hosts long intervals of mineralization. Additional drilling is
planned for this area to fully delineate this potential new
deposit. Pozo De Plata continues to be open to the south and new
deep intersections to the southeast may reflect a second deeper
zone in that direction. P3 drilling continues with 5 drill rigs and
will continue to focus on both the Pozo de Plata deposit and the
newly recognized deposit at the Porphyry zone. Additional outlying
targets on this large property will also be drill tested.
Table 1 summarizes the results from the initial 37 holes
(15,787.6 metres). Table 2 summarizes the drill hole locations and
Figure 1 illustrates the drill hole locations.
QA/QC Procedures
All drill holes are started with HQ diameter core and then when
necessary reduced to NQ diameter core depending on drilling
conditions. The drill core is sawed through its length and samples
collected in continuous two-metre intervals. All drill intercepts
reported (Table 1) are core lengths and not true widths, which are
unknown. All of the samples are prepared and analyzed by ALS Chemex
at its labs in Chihuahua, Mexico, and Vancouver, Canada
respectively. Gold analyses are being performed by 30-gram fire
assay with an atomic absorption finish. Silver, zinc and lead were
analyzed as part of a multi-element inductively coupled argon
plasma ("ICP") package using a four-acid digestion with over-limit
results being reanalyzed with assay procedures using ICP-AES. The
company employs a rigorous quality assurance and quality control
program that include standardized material, blanks and duplicates.
AMEC Americas Ltd. has designed the QAQC protocol from a study and
review of information provided by the Joint Venture to AMEC.
Independent Mining Consultants (IMC), Tuscon, Arizona reviews the
QA/QC data.
The project is under the direct supervision of Vic Chevillon,
MA, CPG, and Vice President of Exploration for Levon who is a
qualified person within the context of National Instrument 43-101.
Robert Cameron, PGeo, who is a qualified person within the context

(i) Silver equivalent grade, based on assumed recoveries, is calculated
using the following metal prices: silver at $15 per ounce, gold at $1,000
per ounce, zinc at 90 cents per pound, lead at 90 cents per pound and
assumed recoveries (metallurgical and smelter deductions) of 70% for silver
and gold and 50% for zinc and lead. Actual metal recoveries have not been
determined. Summary assay intervals as reported above were selected based on
a 22.64 g/T Ag equivalent cut-off over significant widths that by inspection
show geochemical consistency down the hole among the 2 m sample intervals.
