Zenyatta Ventures Ltd. ("Zenyatta" or "Company") (TSX VENTURE:ZEN) is pleased to
provide the following update on the current drilling campaign on the Albany
Graphite Deposit.


Drill hole #5 (Z12-4F5) was collared 450 metres ('m') east of the original
discovery drill hole (Z11-4F1) and drilled in a northerly direction.
Significantly, upon passing through the overburden/limestone, the hole
immediately intersected graphitic breccia which shows the deposit coming to near
surface in this area as well. A wide zone (94.0m) of graphitic breccia was
intersected from 44.0m to 138.0m followed by a zone of graphitic overprinting
from 138.0m to 214.0m. Assays should be received within the next 12-14 business
days.


Drill hole #4 (Z12-4F4) was collared from the same setup as hole #5 but drilled
in a southerly direction. From 47.0m to 61.8m the drill hole intersected a zone
of graphitic veining and breccia followed by graphitic overprinting from 61.8m
to 170.0m. At the 170.0m point, the drill encountered mechanical problems
related to a detached drill string. The drill string could not be re-attached
and the hole was subsequently abandoned. This particular area of the geophysical
anomaly will be re-drilled at a later date. 


A plan map, section and additional photos can be found on the website at
www.zenyatta.ca.


Aubrey Eveleigh, President and CEO stated "Holes 4 and 5 were large step-outs to
the east where we continue to encounter wide zones of graphitic mineralization.
This confirms that the eastern continuation of the airborne geophysical anomaly
is caused by the same graphite-rich body. The Company is very pleased with these
latest drilling results that continue to expand this large and unique graphite
deposit."


The next drill-holes, #6 and #7, will be drilled 100m west and east of the
discovery hole #1 respectively. Drill hole #6 has just commenced and should be
complete in the next few days.


The graphite discovery is located 30km north of the Trans Canada Highway, power
line and natural gas pipeline. A rail line is located 70km away and an
all-weather road approximately 4-5km from the graphite deposit. The Albany
graphite deposit is near surface, underneath glacial till overburden.
