Abstract
(CCNMatthews - July 26, 2006) - Wildcat Silver Corporation (CNQ:WILD) is pleased to report that its wholly-owned subsidiary Ventana Gold Corp. ("Ventana") has received the assay results from a Mobile Metal Ion (MMI) geochemical soil sampling survey at its 178.6-hectare La Bodega property situated in the California-Vetas mining district in northeastern Colombia. The La Bodega property is adjacent to, and along strike to the southwest of Greystar Resources' Angostura gold-silver deposit.
Ventana performed the MMI soil survey over the entire La Bodega property with sample points every 50 meters along lines spaced 100 meters apart. The resultant anomalous area enclosed by the 13 ppb (100 times background) or higher gold contour is a 450 to 1,000 meter wide contiguous anomaly that extends in a southwest direction from the property line shared with Greystar Resources for 1.2 kilometers. In addition, seven multi-point anomalies up to 650 meters long by 200 meters wide are present that contain greater than 130 ppb gold values.
