Alto Ventures Ltd. announced that Mr. Larry Okada has resigned from its Board of Directors effective May 1, 2013.

The company announced gold values of up to 37.2 g/t from grab samples collected during the reconnaissance sampling program completed in June 2013 on its Oxford Lake property in Manitoba. The Oxford Lake property hosts the historical Rusty Gold deposit and several other gold occurrences. The property covers approximately 35,300 ha and is 100% owned by the company. The company has completed a reconnaissance style bedrock sampling program in June 2013 focusing mainly on shoreline exposures in the Hyers Island area. The objectives were to locate some of the historical mineral occurrences as well as determine the geological setting of gold and base metals mineralization. Numerous areas of disseminated stringer sulphide mineralization were examined and sampled. Most of the sulphide areas are associated with zones of shearing and extensive carbonate alteration. Highly anomalous gold, with values up to 37.2 g/t gold in grab samples, and base metals occur along several of these shear zones. Interestingly, anomalous amounts of tungsten occur with some of the high gold grade samples. Anomalous tungsten values were also obtained in a surface grab sample from Alto's recently acquired Mineral Exploration License 1006A in Cat Eye Bay. The company considers tungsten to be a valuable pathfinder element in the search for gold mineralization and is encouraged by recent announcements from Mega Precious Metals Inc. reporting significant drill intercepts of tungsten associated with the Monument Bay gold deposit. The Company considers the geological and structural settings for parts of the Oxford Lake property to be similar to the geology at Monument Bay and this observation indicates that there may also be some geochemical similarities between the two areas.

The company also announced a change of address. All phone, fax and email addresses remain the same. The company's new address is Suite 1158, 409 Granville Street, Vancouver, B.C. V6C 1T2.
