Red Lake Check Assays Received
E-Energy Ventures Inc. (the "Company") announces the results of check assays
using "pulps and metallics" fire assay methods on channel samples from its
Rivard gold property near Red Lake, Ontario. The initial fire assay results
using 30 gram splits were reported in a news release of 18 October 2006.
Individual assays showed a high degree of variation between the initial assays
and the "pulps and metallics" results, changing for example: from 2.90 grams of
gold per tonne (g/T) to 36.02 g/T; from 28.29 g/T to 53.91 g/T; and from 188.49
g/T to 80.38 g/T.
The variation between the two sets of assays illustrates the effect of free
gold in influencing individual assay results using simple fire assays. The
"pulps and metallics" method is generally regarded as giving a closer
approximation to the overall gold content of a mineralized zone.
The following table gives the previously reported average assays from five
channel samples along a 60 metre length of a zone of altered, sulphide-bearing
ultramafic and felsic rocks cut by gold-bearing quartz stringers, with the
revised averages based on the new assays.

Samples giving gold assays over 1.00 g/T were repeated, using "pulps and
metallics" assays on 1 kilogram splits. Both the original and the repeat assays
were performed at Accurassay Laboratories Ltd., Thunder Bay, Ontario (ISO 17025
certified).
