Maximus Ventures Ltd. is a precious metal exploration company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol MXV. The Company's objective is to build share value through acquisition, exploration, discovery and mine development. Exploration is focused on various stage prospects in North America. The Company is constantly reviewing additional opportunities in North America and Mexico.

Maximus Ventures Ltd. holds three advanced gold exploration projects: Larder Lake in Ontario, Unity in Idaho and Hope Bay in Nunavut. Maximus has recently announced an agreement to combine the Company with NFX Gold Inc. due to the success at the Larder Lake Gold Project. It shall create a stronger and larger consolidated ownership on the outstanding asset at Larder Lake, Ontario. Maximus has released impressive results to date on its Larder Lake project confirming the presence of an extensive, very continuous gold mineralization system containing both high-grade and low-grade lenses within. The style and grade of the mineralization are typical of the world class Kerr-Addison ore bodies located only 5 km to the east, along the same geological structure. A 43,000 m drilling program at Larder Lake is underway to aggressively follow-up on the impressive intercepts with the objective of concluding a resource estimate by year end. Currently at Larder Lake there are 3 drills working. Maximus also looks forward to working with their new JV partner, Newmont, at the Hope Bay project and will start surface drilling in Summer 2008 at the Unity mine located in Idaho, USA.
