Management of KHALKOS EXPLORATION INC. ("Khalkos" or the "Corporation") (TSX
VENTURE:KAS) is pleased to announce the results of its strategic stripping
campaign on the gold property of Villebon (V property). A total of ten chosen
samples of rock were selected for assaying, including five from a mineralized
quartz vein in pyrite, pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite, galena and native gold (sample
# J143414) which yield a gold grade up to 2.10 ounces per ton (72,03 g/t).

Fieldworks were done in the southern part of the property where the Cere's old
headframe is located. The zone of stripping is situated at more than 1 km from
the vein #4 which is currently undergoing diamond drilling. The results confirm
the strong potential of high grade veins in the sector of the Cere's old
headfram. Khalkos intends to sample 5 tons of selected materials that will be
sent to the small scale facility of ExploLab in Val d'Or for metallurgic assay.
This will allow Khalkos Exploration to pour its first ounces of gold and to
measure more precisely the gold grade of the vein. 


Following an insurance program and an analytical control of quality, the ten
selected samples of the V Property were assayed at the laboratories of
Bourlamaque Ltd in Val-d'Or, Quebec. Using the fire assay, samples with a gold
grade higher than 10g/t were re-assayed by the gravimetric method. The samples
were prepared following the standard procedures of Bourlamaque.


The V Property in the Villebon Township is located 47 km south of the city of
Val d'Or in Abitibi, Quebec and 12 km south of the former Chimo mine which
produced 363 000 oz of gold between 1966 and 1996. The first mineralized
showings were discovered in the 1930s, and underwent stripping, rock sampling,
and drilling in the 1940s and 1980s, with no additional drilling since then.
During the 1940s, the V Property underwent a small-scale artisanal mining
operation, producing around 160 oz of gold, which was then sent to the Royal
Canadian Mint. (Licence no. 112, file 101.39, Service des Mines, Province of
Quebec, Gustave Cere).


Robert Gagnon, President and CEO, declares: "We are very encouraged by these
results that confirm the economical potential of these high grade veins in the V
property. The exploration fieldwork will continue until the end of the year."
