VMS Vortex Metals Inc

Everton Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:EVR)(FRANKFURT:ERV)("Everton" or the
"Company") and Linear Gold Corp. (TSX:LRR) ("Linear") are pleased to announce
the discovery of the Central Gossan gold-copper Showing located between the La
Lechoza and the La Lechoza West prospects ("La Lechoza Corridor") in the central
part of the Ampliacion Pueblo Viejo Project in the Dominican Republic. Drilling
will resume in mid-November.


Follow-up on soil anomalies within the La Lechoza Corridor identified this new
undocumented Central Gossan gold-copper Showing. Recent rock and soil auger
sampling in this Corridor has yielded values up to 5.8 g/t gold and 0.48% copper
in rock samples, and up to 396 ppb gold, 1,475 ppm copper and 2,970 ppm zinc in
different soil samples within the Central Gossan gold-copper Showing. The
samples were collected on a grid that extends for more than 200 meters in length
and over 40 meters wide. Additional assays are pending. 


The next drill phase, totalling 2,000 meters, is part of the 8,000-meter drill
program announced by the partners in June 2009. Approximately 1,000 meters, for
eight to ten holes, will test the new Central Gossan gold-copper Showing and
other mineralized occurrences near the La Lechoza Prospect. Drilling completed
in this area by Linear in 2005 returned 22m containing 1.0% copper and 0.3 g/t
gold, including a one-meter massive sulphide zone containing 10.25% copper and
5.71 g/t gold in Hole LE-08. Moreover, the 2007 Everton-Linear trenching program
at La Lechoza returned grades up to 6.65 g/t gold and 18.8 g/t silver over 22m,
including 22.1 g/t gold and 48.6 g/t silver over 4m (press release September 18,
2007). This drill phase will also follow up on other selected targets on the
Ampliacion Pueblo Viejo Property adjacent on the western and northern borders of
the Pueblo Viejo Mine's Montenegro pit. Everton has an option to acquire up to
65% on the Ampliacion Pueblo Viejo Project.


The La Lechoza Corridor encompasses the geological characteristics and a metal
association suite typical to that of an exhalative volcanogenic polymetallic
massive sulphide system ("VMS") structurally controlled along the Corridor.
Multiple mineralized prospects and showings occur along this Corridor, mostly as
centimeter- to meter-scale sized boulders, sub-outcrops and outcrops of massive
argillic and siliceous gossans, silicified basaltic andesites and ferruginous
red jasper, which locally contains fresh sulphides and minor barite. The
mineralization is associated to a NW-SE-trending shearing structure that
coincides with anomalous airborne electromagnetic conductors outlined during the
helicopter-born geophysical survey ("HEM") completed in 2007. A zone of
disseminated and stockwork-style mineralization on surface appears to be a
feeder system for the sulphide mineralization.

Everton is well funded and actively exploring in the Dominican Republic adjacent
to the US$2.7 billion Pueblo Viejo project, currently being developed by the
world's largest gold mining company, Barrick Gold Corporation (60%)
(NYSE/TSX:ABX) in partnership with Goldcorp (40%) ("Goldcorp") (NYSE:GG, TSX:G).
Pueblo Viejo is estimated to contain 22.4 million ounces of gold, 455 million
pounds of copper and 131.3 million ounces of silver. Everton recently acquired
Hays Lake Gold Inc., a private company with various options to acquire a 38 km2
consolidated land package located in the Shoal Lake area, near Kenora, Ontario.
The Shoal Lake Gold Project is comprised of two significant high grade gold
deposits: Duport and Cedar Island. Everton is also exploring in the Opinaca
region of James Bay, Quebec where the Company has amassed one of the largest
land claims adjacent to Goldcorp's Eleonore gold deposit, which currently hosts
an estimated mineral resource of 5.3 million ounces of gold.
