Drill holes WNC-127, 128, 129, 130, 131, and 132 did not contain reportable gold values. An updated drill hole map is posted on the Company's website (to view map please click on the following link: http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/XAU1008.pdf). Results for WNC136, 137 and 138 are pending.
WNC124 provides evidence of the prospective nature of the western range front area of the Pequop Mountains. Agnico is continuing the effort to identify other targets in this large area.
Exploration activity is continuing in all of the known target areas including the Section 34, Acrobat-Juggler, Mountain Top, and Range Front areas. Agnico will continue drilling in these areas throughout October, 2008 supported by mapping and sampling. A gravity survey, completed in June over the western range front area, lends further support to the target generation effort.
As reported to AuEx by Agnico, all drill samples were collected following standard industry practice and were assayed by American Assay Laboratories, Inc. of Sparks, Nevada. Gold results were determined using standard fire assay techniques on a 30 gram sample with an atomic absorption finish. QA/QC included the insertion of numerous standards and blanks into the sample stream. Check assays and preliminary cyanide amenability testing are underway. All intercepts are reported as drilled; true widths have not been calculated. All data, as reported to the Company by Agnico and disclosed in this press release including sampling, analytical and test data have been reviewed by the Company's qualified person Mr. Eric M. Struhsacker, M.Sc., and Certified Professional Geologist. Further details concerning the West Pequop property are described in the Company's National Instrument 43-101 report filed on Sedar and are on the Company's website.
The Company's interest in the West Pequop Venture is carried by Agnico through to completion of a bankable feasibility study at which time Agnico will have earned 70% and the Company 30%.

AuEx Ventures, Inc.: Long Canyon Venture Drilling Extends Gold Mineralization 400 Meters
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Sep 29, 2008 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) --
AuEx Ventures, Inc. (TSX: XAU) ("AuEx" or the "Company") is pleased to report that new reverse circulation drilling results confirm the presence of high-grade oxide gold mineralization 1,312 feet (400 meters) northeast of previously announced drill intercepts at the Long Canyon Venture gold exploration project located in Elko County, Nevada. Fronteer Development Group Inc. (Fronteer), the project operator and 51% interest holder in the Long Canyon Venture, provided gold assays from eleven holes completed recently in the northeastern part of the Long Canyon gold system. The northern-most hole, LC129, returned:
- 110 feet (33.5 meters) at 0.074 ounces per ton (2.53 grams per tonne), including 15 feet (4.6 meters) at 0.385 ounces per ton (13.18 grams per tonne) from a depth in-hole of 305 feet (93 meters).
LC129 is a northwest-directed angle hole located in the southwest quarter of Section 21. Nine of the eleven mineralized holes reported herein confirmed and extended gold mineralization in the Shadow Zone first described in NR08-14 of August 19th. Most notably, LC113 intersected:
- 240 feet (73.2 meters) at 0.049 ounces per ton (1.68 grams per tonne), including 10 feet (3.1 meters) at 0.389 ounces per ton (13.33 grams per tonne) from a depth in-hole of 245 feet (74.7 meters).
The Shadow Zone lies northwest of and parallel to the Northeast Zone also described in NR08-14. The remaining hole reported, LC126, intersected shallow oxide mineralization in the Northeast Zone.
These new drill holes extend and confirm the presence of gold mineralization in multiple, parallel northeast directed zones over a strike length of approximately one mile (1.6 kilometers). Drilled mineralization remains open on strike and at depth. The strike extent of gold mineralization, known from drilling, rock chip, and soil samples, is now about 7,000 feet (2,133 meters). This span includes the sparsely drilled southwestern extension of mineralization and the undrilled southwestern area of highly anomalous soil and outcrop samples targeted for drilling later this season. A Plan of Operations and bond under final review by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management will accommodate the expansion of the drilling program on the Long Canyon project particularly to the southwest area.
This news release and the three others released since late July have now reported a total of 44 of the 84 holes that have been collared in the 2008 program to date. Approximately 43,600 feet (13,300 meters) of drilling has been completed at Long Canyon this year. The combination core and reverse circulation drilling program continues with the goal of drilling until the onset of winter conditions. An initial NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate is planned for Long Canyon at the conclusion of the 2008 exploration program.
At the current pace, Fronteer will exceed significantly the original amount of drilling planned for 2008. The Long Canyon Venture partners are planning, in addition to drilling, additional detailed geological mapping and prospecting to identify new targets and to evaluate more thoroughly this large 15,000 acre (6070 hectare) property.
Fronteer has earned a 51% interest in the Long Canyon Venture, subject to AuEx's confirmation that Fronteer has met its spending obligation of $5,000,000. The Company has elected to participate in pro-rata joint funding at its 49% interest. However, Fronteer has an ability until December 10th, 2008 to earn an additional 14% interest by electing to carry all further costs to advance Long Canyon through a feasibility study to be completed within five years.

AuEx Ventures, Inc.: More Strong Gold Results at Long Canyon - Zibb.com
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Sep 11, 2008 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) --
AuEx Ventures, Inc. ("AuEx" or the "Company") (TSX: XAU) is pleased to report new gold mineralization identified in road cut sampling and in drill intercepts, including hole LC093c returning 105 feet (32 meters) at 0.107 ounces per ton (3.67 grams per tonne), that continues to confirm and extend shallow, oxide gold mineralization approximately 75 meters northeast at the Company's Long Canyon gold exploration project located in Elko County, Nevada. Fronteer Development Corp. ("Fronteer") provided these results to the Company from recently completed sampling of recently constructed access roads and from 8 additional holes completed since the 2008 drilling program commenced in May. A total of 33 holes from the 2008 program have now been reported from over 60 that have been drilled so far. The combination core and reverse circulation drilling program continues with the goal of completing approximately 100 new holes in 2008 at Long Canyon. Fronteer has completed close to 38,000 feet (11,500 meters) of reverse circulation and core drilling in 2008 and work on the 2008 exploration program is continuing. Commenting on the results, Ronald L. Parratt, President and CEO, stated, "These results from Long Canyon continue to demonstrate the significance of this new Nevada gold discovery. This mineralization is good grade, shallow and oxide - just what you hope to find. The mineral system is still open and I'm optimistic there's more to come." The following table summarizes the new reportable assay results:

Drill holes LC080c, LC101, LC102 and LC106 had no reportable intercepts. An updated drill hole map, drill hole assay database, road cut sampling data, road cut photo and mineralization model are posted on the Company's website. Drill hole ID numbers ending with a "c" indicate core holes with all others being reverse circulation.
These new drill holes extend and confirm the presence of gold mineralization in multiple, parallel northeast directed zones over a strike length of approximately 4,000 feet (1,200 meters). Including the less drilled southwestern extension of mineralization and the completely undrilled southwestern extension defined by the gold soil anomaly and gold outcrop sample data, the known extent of gold mineralization is now about 5,800 feet (1,800 meters). Drilled mineralization remains open on strike and at depth.
Recent continuous chip channel sampling of bedrock exposed by new road construction for drill site access has produced meaningful results including 389 feet (118.6 meters) averaging 0.122 opt gold (4.19 gpt), within which was a zone of 40 feet (12.2 meters) averaging 0.722 opt gold (24.74 gpt) and a second zone of 90 feet (27.4 meters) averaging 0.073 opt gold (2.50 gpt). These sample results were from along the strike of mineralization and therefore do not represent true thickness however they do demonstrate the continuity of near surface gold mineralization including the presence of high grade gold values.
Drilling by Fronteer is ongoing and work completed so far in 2008 has already matched the original amount of drill footage planned for the year. In addition to drilling, Fronteer continues to develop additional detailed geological mapping, soil geochemistry and geophysics as aids to understanding the distribution and controls of gold mineralization. A NI 43-101 resource estimate will be generated for Long Canyon at the conclusion of the 2008 exploration program.
Under the terms of the earn-in agreement with the Company, Fronteer may earn a 51% interest in the Long Canyon property by investing $5million over a five year period and may earn an additional 14% by advancing Long Canyon through feasibility. Fronteer is expected to meet it's initial earn-in obligation before the end of this year. A Plan of Operations has been submitted to the Elko District Office of the U.S. Bureau of Land Management by Fronteer to expand the drilling program on the Long Canyon project particularly to the southwest.
As reported to AuEx by Fronteer, all drill samples were collected following standard industry practice and were assayed by American Assay Laboratories, Inc. of Sparks, Nevada. Gold results were determined using standard fire assay techniques on a 30 gram sample with an atomic absorption finish. Samples exceeding 10 grams per tonne gold were re-assayed using a gravimetric finish and the values received were reported in the averages.

AuEx Ventures, Inc.: Gold Mineralization Extended Further at Long Canyon - Zibb.com
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Nov 18, 2008 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) --
AuEx Ventures, Inc. ("AuEx" or the "Company") (TSX: XAU) is pleased to report new gold drill intercepts, including hole LC149 returning 80 feet (24.4 meters) at 0.091 ounces per ton (3.12 grams per tonne), and hole LC147 returning 25 feet (7.6 meters) at 0.088 ounces per ton (3.01 grams per tonne) that extends shallow, oxide gold mineralization another 328 feet (100 meters) northeast along strike at the Company's 49% owned Long Canyon gold exploration project located in Elko County, Nevada. Fronteer Development Group Inc. ("Fronteer"), operator and 51% owner, provided these results to the Company from 12 additional holes completed since the 2008 drilling program commenced in May. A total of 58 holes from the 2008 program have now been reported from over 120 that have been drilled so far (to view the attached map please click on: http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/xau1118.pdf). The combination core and reverse circulation drilling program continues with two core drills and two reverse circulation drills active on the property. Work is expected to continue until late November before the 2008 program is concluded. Commenting on the results, Ronald L. Parratt, President and CEO, stated, "The Long Canyon gold system continues to grow and is still open. A number of additional holes will be completed this year, however it appears that the mineral system will still not be closed off keeping the door open to extend mineralization further in 2009."

Drill holes LC144-145 and LC150-152 had no reportable intercepts.
Drill hole ID numbers ending with a "C" indicate core holes with all
others being reverse circulation holes.
Gold mineralization is present at Long Canyon in a series of multiple, parallel northeast directed zones with a strike length of approximately 1.1.miles (1.7 kilometers) hosted within a sequence of Cambrian and Ordovician limestone and dolomite. Mineralization is oxidized, starts at the surface and is mostly, if not entirely, above the water table. The mineralization is still open to the northeast and 1,600 feet (480 meters) of surface anomaly on the southwest defined by gold soil chemistry and gold outcrop sample data is still undrilled. Access road and drill site construction is continuing in the southwest area however drilling is unlikely in 2008.
In addition to drilling, Fronteer continues to develop additional detailed geological mapping, soil geochemistry and geophysics as aids to understanding the distribution and controls of gold mineralization. This work is also developing new exploration targets on the large Long Canyon property. An NI 43-101 resource estimate will be generated for Long Canyon at the conclusion of the 2008 exploration program and is expected to be completed in late January or early February 2009.
As reported to AuEx by Fronteer, all drill samples were collected following standard industry practice and were assayed by American Assay Laboratories, Inc. of Sparks, Nevada. Gold results were determined using standard fire assay techniques on a 30 gram sample with an atomic absorption finish. Samples exceeding 10 grams per tonne gold were re-assayed using a gravimetric finish and the values received were reported in the averages. QA/QC included the insertion of numerous standards and blanks into the sample stream. Check assays and preliminary cyanide amenability testing is underway. All intercepts are reported as drilled using a 0.30 gram/tonne cut-off; true widths have not been determined. All data, as reported to the Company by Fronteer and disclosed in this press release including sampling, analytical and test data have been reviewed by the Company's qualified person, Mr. Eric M. Struhsacker, M.Sc., and Certified Professional Geologist. Further details concerning the Long Canyon property are described in the Company's National Instrument 43-101 report filed on Sedar and are on the Company's website.
AuEx Ventures, Inc. is a TSX listed precious metals exploration company that has a current portfolio of twenty exploration projects in Nevada, one project in Spain and five projects in Argentina. The Company controls about 80,000 acres of unpatented mining claims and fee land in Nevada. Eleven of the projects are in joint venture or exploration earn-in agreements with five companies. The Company applies the extensive Nevada exploration experience and high-end technical skills of its founders to search for and acquire new precious metal exploration projects that are then offered for joint venture.
