Vior Samples 36.7 g/t Au at Buteux Project Thu Oct 25, 12:01 PM ca.news.finance.yahoo.com QUEBEC CITY, QUEBEC--(Marketwire - Oct. 25, 2007) - Vior Inc. ("Vior") (TSX VENTURE: VIO.V)(FRANKFURT:VL5) announces the discovery of a new high-grade gold showing at its Buteux gold project, located 125 kilometres southwest of Chibougamau, and 110 kilometres east of Lebel-sur-Quevillon, Province of Quebec. Five chosen samples taken from the discovery outcrop returned gold values ranging from 6.8 g/t Au to 36.7 g/t Au (Table 1.) The mineralized zone was hand-trenched over a surface of several metres and therefore remains open in all directions. Gold mineralization is found in a 10 centimetre-wide smoked quartz vein containing up to 10% pyrite while the host rock is composed of sheared granodiorite also containing up to 10% of finely disseminated pyrite. The gold bearing samples were collected from the vein itself and from the surrounding mineralized rock. The mineralized zone was discovered during a fieldwork program whose purpose was to investigate the preliminary results from an ongoing geophysical survey. The final results of this induced polarization geophysical survey will be available within a few weeks. A mechanized trenching program to better define the limits of the mineralized zone coupled with channel sampling will be conducted this fall. This new high-grade gold zone is located 120 metres southeast of the Desgagne showing that returned values of 8 g/t Au to 85 g/t Au from chosen samples (PR February 22, 2007). During this latest fieldwork program, 12 chosen samples were collected from three different areas including seven outcrops. Results were as follows: 7 samples returned values of less than 0.05 g/t Au while 5 samples, from the discovery outcrop, returned values above 6.8 g/t Au. The Buteux project is located in the Urban-Barry greenstone segment, east of the Abitibi greenstone belt and lies approximately 20 kilometres east of the Noront discovery announced in December 2006 (1,792.9 g/t Au over 4.8 metres). The Buteux property and the adjacent Fecteau property are wholly-owned by Vior and comprise 154 claims covering more than 9,100 hectares. This very little explored area is now easily accessed by forest roads and in our view has the potential for the discovery of a major gold and/or base metal deposits. All samples were sent to ALS Chemex laboratory in Val d'Or for fire assay analysis with gravimetric finish on all samples greater than 1 g/t Au.
