NETWORK EXPLORATION STAKES PISTALA SUR PROPERTY
Vancouver, British Columbia: Network Exploration Ltd. (the "Company") (TSX.V: NET) is pleased to announce that it has acquired additional property in southern Peru that will complement the company's existing Pistala property. The newly staked area – Pistala Sur – hosts copper oxide staining over a 100m by 100m area and is positioned south of the original Pistala claim blocks in the province of Tacna, Peru.
Pistala Sur is a copper-gold-molybdenum target covering 1300 hectares. It is located approximately 5 kilometers south of the Company's Pistala property within the Incapuquio-Challaviento fissure fault system which hosts world class deposits including the Cucajone, Toquepala, and the Cerro Verde/Santa Rosa deposits. Pistala Sur is located south of an intense semi-circular zone of hydrothermal alteration and at the western margin of a tectonic zone delimited by two regional faults.
The Company's Pistala property is located adjacent to projects led by Australia's Western Metals and Apex Silver from the United States. Western Metals has announced a 2,500 meter drilling program for 2008.
First phase exploration conducted at the Pistala property earlier this year entailed geological mapping at a scale of 1:10,000 over approximately 2300 hectares, as well as the collection of 96 samples. Anomalous and sub-anomalous values of copper and gold were found in two definitive zones, including 25 samples of gold that assayed 10 or more ppb, and 11 samples that assayed over 100 ppm of copper.
Network Exploration Ltd. is a mineral exploration Company committed to building shareholder value through the acquisition of base and precious metal properties in North and South America. For additional information, contact the company at 604 638-7363 (toll free 866 637-5138).
