Zonte Extends Mineralization at Wings Point and Plans Phase 1 Drill Program

March 18, 2014 – Halifax, Nova Scotia – Zonte Metals Inc (TSXV: ZON) (“Zonte” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide the following update on the Wings Point Gold Project located approximately 30 kilometres north of Gander, Newfoundland.  Zonte is exploring the property for sediment hosted bulk tonnage gold mineralization, an interpretation model which has not previously been tested in this area known to host narrow high-grade gold structures.  Zonte’s recent activity has included the review and compilation of existing data and extension of the zone of known gold mineralization, approximately 130 metres to the northeast, with a rock sample assaying 1.02 grams of gold per tonne (g/t Au.)

The Wings Point Gold Project is host to three un-drilled parallel targets which were identified from rock and soil sampling and an induced polarization (“IP”) geophysical survey. Bedrock surface mineralization, which is partially exposed in a working gravel pit, is characterized by disseminated arsenopyrite and pyrite hosted in shales, siltstones and sandstones. The IP pseudosections show two large chargeability and resistivity anomalies, coincident with gold in bedrock samples, having dimensions of up to 1200 metres long by 75-150 metres wide and 600-700 metres long by 100 metres wide, named the Western and Eastern Anomalies, respectively. Both zones have been observed in the IP pseudosections to 75 metres depth. One IP line was run to 150 metres depth penetration and both targets are observed to the extended 150 metres penetration and remain open to depth on that particular line. A third anomaly, named the Arsenic-in-soil Anomaly was identified by high arsenic-in soil(“As-in-soil”) assays,  is coincident with gold in rock samples and a large resistivity anomaly.

A recently assayed rock sample, taken along the forest access road, appears to extend the zone of known gold mineralization to the northeast beyond the geophysical grid. The sample, which assayed 1.02 g/t Au, was taken about 130 metres beyond the northern end of the geophysical grid, where an excavator, completing maintenance along the access road, exposed a zone of bedrock mineralization. This sample is along strike from the As-in-soil Anomaly and believed to represent the extension of this anomaly.   Based on the nature and character of the mineralization and the possibility the As-in-soil and Eastern Anomalies have the similar resistivity signature these anomalies could be one larger target versus two individual targets. A map showing the project, anomalies and sampling can be viewed at http://www.zontemetals.com/projects/wings-point/.

The Company has identified multiple drill targets on the Wings Point Project and is preparing to complete a Phase I drill program to test the anomalies in the subsurface. Drilling proposals have been requested from a number of drill contractors in anticipation of a spring drill program.  Also, based on the recent review and compilation, the Company has decided to drop the Wings Point South Option to focus on the main Wings Point North targets as well as opportunities in Colombia, where the Company continues to review, negotiate and pursue various acquisition initiatives.
