VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - July 2, 2008) - Journey Resources Corp. ("Journey") (TSX VENTURE:JNY)(OTCBB:JNYRF)(FRANKFURT:JL4) and Grenville Gold Corporation (TSX VENTURE:GVG)(PINK SHEETS:GVLGF)(FRANKFURT:F9I)(WKN:A0KELU) ("Grenville") are very pleased to announce that the TSX Venture Exchange has accepted for the filing the option and joint venture agreement, as amended by an amendment agreement dated February 5, 2008 (the "Joint Venture Agreement"), whereby Journey may acquire up to a 75% interest in and to certain mining claims comprising the Silveria property, located in the Huarochiri Province of Peru (the "Property").
Under the terms of the joint venture agreement between Journey, Grenville, its wholly owned Canadian subsidiary and its Peruvian subsidiary, Journey had an exclusive option to acquire up to a 75% interest in the Property by funding up to a total of $11,800,000 million in exploration and development expenditures towards advancing the project into production.
Journey has funded an amount of CDN$1,300,000 toward expenditures on the Property and issued 1,000,000 shares of its common stock to Grenville. On or before three months following the Approval Date, Journey shall fund a further amount of CDN$1,500,000 toward Expenditures on the Property, upon completion of which, Journey will have earned a 25% interest in and to the Property. In addition, Journey must fund a further CDN$3,000,000 in Expenditures on the Property on or before eight months following the Approval Date, upon completion of which, Journey will have earned a 50% interest in and to the Property.
Under the Joint Venture Agreement, Journey shall maintain an option to earn an additional 25% interest in and to the Property by funding a further CDN$6,000,000 in Expenditures on the Property and making payment to Grenville in the amount of CDN$1,000,000 on or before January 31, 2011. In the event that Journey completes such further Expenditures, Journey will have earned a 75% interest in and to the Property, unless Grenville elects to contribute an equal amount of Expenditures under the joint venture in order to maintain its interest of 50% and have the joint venture continue to run on a 50/50% basis. All funds are to be deposited into a joint venture account within the required time limits for the purpose of funding work on the Property under the joint venture.
Mr. Paul Gill, President of Grenville, commented: "We look forward to working together on the development of the Property with the continued intention of placing the Property into production as soon as possible."
