Maximus Discovers Another High Grade Gold Zone
at NFX's LarderLake Property
�Hole 13
intersects 13.1 g/t Au over 6.0 m in the Fernland AreaMineralization
confirmed in the BearLake Area
Longueuil,
Quebec and Toronto, Ontario: November 1, 2007. Maximus Ventures Ltd. ("Maximus")
(TSX.V: MXV) and NFX Gold Inc. ("NFX") (TSX.V: NFX) are pleased
to announce the discovery of a new high grade gold zone at the Larder
Lake Gold Project.� Hole #13 cut 6.0 m of flow-type
mineralization grading 13.1 g/t
Au, including a 3.0
m section grading 19.9 g/t Au, at a depth of 160 metres
below surface.� This intersection,
located in the Fernland area, is open down-plunge for at least 600 metres
and laterally for over 300 metres. It is on the same favourable geologic horizon
as the recent Bear Lake discovery, 2.3km to the east, where intercepts of
10.4 g/t Au over 5.2 m and 13.3g/t
Au over 6.0 m in hole #11were reported in a press release dated August 16, 2007. (Visit Maximus web site www.maximusventures.com for corporate presentation
and figures).
Furthermore,
assay results have been received from two of the follow-up holes drilled
around the high grade gold zones intersected in hole #11 in the Bear Lake
Area referenced above. Hole #15,
drilled 50 metres down-plunge from hole #11, intersected 1.2 g/t Au over
5..5 m followed by 7.0 g/t Au
over 4.1 m.� Hole
#14, drilled 75 metres up-plunge from #11, also intersected both zones
with the upper zone grading 0.5 g/t Au over 8.9 m and the lower zone
averaging 0.5 g/t Au over 7.0 m.��
Results from holes #16, drilled 70 metres east of hole #11, are
still pending and hole #17, drilled 50 metres west and below hole #11, is
currently in progress.
Follow-up
drilling to date on the BearLake gold zone has confirmed the continuity
of the gold mineralization and the lower grades intersected in holes #14 and
#15 demonstrate that both high grade and low grade shoots are present
within the mineralized area. Additional drilling is required to define
the strike, dip of these mineralized zones, and to further define
potential higher-grade lenses.. Typically, this style of mineralization
in the LarderLake area can be deeply seated and higher-grade gold
mineralization within each of these gold shoots generally starts at a
vertical depth of approximately 400 to 500m. The presence of albitized
high iron mafic and/or ultramafic rocks is a common feature for the
gold-rich lenses, which were also present in the high-grade gold zones at
the nearby Kerr Addison Mine located some 6 km to the east.
While a limited
number of additional holes could be drilled from the shores of BearLake,
detailed definition drilling will be better achieved from the ice this
winter and a second drill is expected to start working in January
2008.� While waiting for the assay
results of the two follow-up holes (#16 and #17) at BearLake, the drill
will relocate to the Fernland area to carry out follow-up drilling
laterally and down-plunge of the newly discovered high-grade
mineralization.�
"We are pleased with the recent results from
LarderLake," stated Francois Viens President and CEO of Maximus.
"The discovery of this new high grade mineralization at Fernland
confirms the potential for the multi-kilometre long geologic sequence to
host a series of high grade gold deposits. The Fernland discovery is also
very shallow compared to the usual high-grade mineralization found in the
area.. In combination with the BearLake discovery, our results so far
suggest the possibility for a highly prospective gold camp".

LarderLake
Property
The Larder Lake Project consists of the Cheminis, BearLake, Fernland and
Barber Larder properties (all 100% NFX owned). Under the Option and Joint
Venture Agreement between Maximus and NFX signed March 3, 2006, Maximus
has the right to earn a 60% interest in NFX's interest at LarderLake by
expending $6 million on exploration by December 31, 2008.
As part of its
QA/QC program, Maximus carries out check assays on the high-grade
intersections with no discrepancies found in the assay results. The
turnaround time for the reception of assay results from the lab has been
very slow since September, due to the very large amount of samples received
with the end of the field season.�
The situation is gradually returning to normal.
The technical content of the information related to LarderLake was
reviewed by Mr. Bernard Boily, P. Geo., responsible for supervising the
drilling campaign and qualified person for Maximus under the guidelines
of National Instrument 43-101. The analytical method for gold is one (1)
assay-ton fire assay, AA determination with gravimetric finish on all
samples reporting over 2 grams per tonne (g/t) gold. Assaying is done at
Laboratoire Expert Inc. in Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec. The quality control
process includes inserting blank samples and certified standards within
each batch sent to the laboratory.
