Alto Ventures Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:ATV) ("Alto Ventures") is pleased to announce
that it has agreed to sell its underlying 0.5% NSR Royalty on the Windfall and
Alcane properties to Virginia Mines Inc. ("Virginia") in consideration for an
amount of $750,000 payable by the issuance of common shares in the capital of
Virginia at a price per share of $13.00. This price is equal to the Volume
Weighted Average Price of Virginia on the Toronto Stock Exchange for the last

non-brokered private placement in Alto Ventures aggregating $250,000, at a price
of $0.15 per share, totaling 1,666,667 shares. The proceeds of the private
placement will be used to advance diamond exploration on Alto's properties in
the Pikoo district of north-central Saskatchewan and for general working
capital.


The sale of the Windfall and Alcane NSR Royalty and the private placement shall
close concurrently and be conditional upon: title due diligence satisfactory to
Virginia, approval by the Boards of Directors of Virginia and Alto Ventures,
regulatory approvals and execution of final agreements with customary
representations, warranties, covenants and conditions for transactions of such
nature.


The Windfall and Alcane properties are located in Northern Quebec and form a
contiguous block. Both are being explored actively by Eagle Hill Exploration
Corp. and most of the currently known gold resources reported by Eagle Hill
Exploration for the Main Zone lie within the Windfall block of claims. For
details of the Windfall Lake resources please see Eagle Hill Exploration Corp.
news release dated March 3, 2014.
