("Volta" or the "Company") (TSX: VTR) announces the results from its drilling program recently completed at the Nassara prospect, on its 100% owned Danyoro permit, in southwestern Burkina Faso, West Africa. The drilling program, comprising 35 drill holes (3,515 metres), targeted a 2.2 kilometer portion of a 10 kilometer long northwest trending shear zone associated with gold in bedrock (see News Release of 16 June, 2010). The program has identified three northwesterly plunging ore shoots, each with a strike length between 400 and 600m. The gold mineralization occurs in quartz veining hosted along the sheared contact between volcanic flows and graphitic schists (See Figure #1). The ore shoots dip 45-60° to the southwest.
