Near-surface highlights include:
Drill hole RDD-191; 23.2m @ 0.95 g/t gold, incl. 10.0m @ 1.78 g/t gold
Drill hole RDD-183; 21.8m @ 0.88 g/t gold, incl. 6.0m @ 2.21 g/t gold

Vancouver, British Columbia – Velocity Minerals Ltd. (TSX.V: VLC) ("Velocity" or the "Company") announces results from 13 drill holes at the Rozino gold deposit (Table 1) and the Rozino South target (Table 2). Mineralization is open at both areas and drilling is ongoing.

At the Rozino deposit, resource expansion drilling to the south of the known deposit has intersected near-surface gold mineralization up to 200m south of the Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") design pit limits (Figures 1 and 2). Intersections are close to surface and there are additional untested areas into which this mineralization may extend. Both infill drilling and additional step-outs are in progress, aiming to expand the mineralization further south and east (Figure 3).

At the Rozino South target, drilling continues to intersect gold mineralization at depth. Drill hole RDD-187 intersected 12.4m grading 0.83 g/t gold; mineralization appears to be thickening toward the south. Follow up drilling is in progress, targeting near surface gold mineralization.

Figure 1: Drill section 11NW showing significant intersections in three 50m step-out drill holes, extending mineralization up to 200m south from the PEA design pit limits.

Figure 2: Drill section 12NW showing a significant intersection located approximately 200m south of the PEA design pit limits and showing the location of 3 follow-up holes.

Table 1: Significant, Near-Surface Exploration Drill Results at Rozino Gold Deposit
The drill intersections disclosed here have not yet been included in a resource model and true thickness of mineralization has not yet been determined. Drill holes are designed to intersect mineralization perpendicular or close to perpendicular. Drill intersections are calculated using a 0.2 g/t gold trigger, a minimum 0.5 g/t gold composite, and a maximum of 3 metres consecutive waste.

Quality Assurance / Quality Control

The work program at Rozino was designed and is supervised by Stuart A. Mills, CGeol, the Company's Vice-President Exploration, who is responsible for all aspects of the work, including the quality control/quality assurance program.

On-site personnel at the project rigorously collect and track samples which are then security sealed and shipped to ALS Global laboratory in Romania. Samples used for the results described herein are prepared and analyzed by fire assay using a 30-gram charge in compliance with industry standards at ALS' Romanian laboratory. A sample split of the milled material is shipped to ALS' Irish laboratory for multi-element analysis using an inductively coupled Mass Spectrometer.  Field duplicate samples, blanks and independent controlled reference material (standards) are added to every batch.

Drill intersections in this news release are calculated using a 0.2 g/t gold trigger, a minimum 0.5 g/t gold composite, and a maximum of 3 metres consecutive waste.
