  One of the World's Largest Gold Producers Invests in Vancouver Junior
  VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Feb. 11 /PRNewswire/ -- One of the world's largest gold producers, Gold Fields Limited of South Africa, has acquired 2.1 million units of stock in Vancouver junior Aquest Minerals Corp.
  Gold Fields, which produces an average of 4 million ounces of gold per year, is partially funding the development of Aquest's Anabella gold project in Guatemala. Aquest has already identified a resource of approximately 630,000 ounces in a Carlin-style, sedimentary deposit that the company believes has the potential to top 2 million ounces. In addition to the stock purchase, Gold Fields will also underwrite further metallurgical testing, scheduled to begin this month.
  The financing will allow Aquest to continue and expand geological mapping and sampling that show gold, antimony and arsenic values extending over a strike length of 5 kilometres.
  Company Chairman Jim O'Rourke, a respected industry veteran whose previous credits include quarterbacking the $140,000,000 Huckleberry Mine, leaves today for Guatemala to meet with Dr. Tom Vehrs and a 16-man geological crew to initiate the second phase of exploration. The objective is to further confirm an extension to the current ore body that, if verified, could indicate a substantial bulk-tonnage deposit.
  Commenting on the recent rise in the gold price, O'Rourke says, ``We have always believed that gold is undervalued. Because of this, Aquest has focused on potentially large deposits that are relatively inexpensive to acquire. In this way, we believe we minimize downside risk to our investors, and offer the potential for shareholders to realize a significantly higher return per share as in the case of several recent highly-successful transactions.'
  Aquest trades on the Canadian Venture Exchange under the symbol AQU-V.
