VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA — (Marketwired) — 07/29/13 — Coventry Resources Inc. („Coventry“ or „the Company“) (TSX VENTURE: CYY)(ASX: CYY) is pleased to announce that it has received assay results from a diamond drilling program completed at its West Cedartree Gold Project in western Ontario, Canada. The West Cedartree Gold Project forms part of the Company-s greater Cameron Gold Camp Project.
HIGHLIGHTS
Significant intersections of shallow mineralization included:
A total of 25 shallow NQ drill holes totalling 1,994.2 metres were completed at the Robertson and McLennan Prospects (18 and 7 drill holes, respectively; see Table 1). The drilling targeted shallow extensions to known mineralization intersected by previous explorers.
Drilling intercepted multiple broad zones of mineralization at shallow depths. Significant results, greater than 1 g/t gold over intervals greater than 1 metre, were returned from 18 of the 25 holes drilled (Table 2). These results have validated and expanded the mineralisation defined by previous explorers at both the McLennan and Robertson Prospects and further exploration is anticipated that may result in them being supplemental feed sources to the Cameron Project.
Robertson Prospect
Eighteen diamond drill holes for 1,568.6 metres were completed at the Robertson Prospect to test for extensions of the northeast-southwest trending mineralized zone within gabbro which had been previously delineated over a strike length of 200m and to a vertical depth of 120m (Figure 1 and Table 1).
Significant gold intercepts were recorded in 12 of the 18 holes (Table 2), with a number of broad intercepts, including:
These results complement those reported in 2010 and 2011 by previous explorer, Houston Lake Mining Inc. („Houston Lake“), which completed a total of 15 diamond drill holes for 1,980 metres, recording results including:
The recently completed program has now extended the strike of the main mineralized zone at Robertson to more than 250 metres. The mineralization remains open to the northeast and at depth.
McLennan Prospect
Seven diamond drill holes for 425.6 metres were completed at the McLennan Prospect to test for southwestern extensions of the silica-pyrite breccia that hosts gold mineralization (Figure 1 and Table 1).
Significant gold intercepts were recorded in 5 of the 7 holes (Table 2). CWM-13-003 intersected a plunging high-grade zone, returning:
This intercept is comparable to those recorded previously by Houston Lake from four holes that were drilled underneath the main trenches, when results included:
A shallow, high-grade zone, plunging to the southwest over a strike of about 60 metres, has now been delineated. The mineralization remains open in all directions, particularly to the southwest.

(„Coventry“) does not intend, and does not assume any obligation, to update this forward-looking information. Forward-looking information includes, but is not limited to, statements with respect to mineral resource estimates, drill plans, planned work programs, future upgrading of mineral resources and expected outcomes. Often, but not always, forward-looking information can be identified by the use of words such as „plans“, „expects, „is expected“, „budget“, „scheduled“, „estimates“, „forecasts“, „intends“, „anticipates“, or „believes“, or the negatives thereof or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results „may“, „could“, „would“, „might“, or „will“ be taken, occur or be achieved.
Any forward-looking information contained in this news release is based on certain assumptions that Coventry believes are reasonable, including, with respect to any mineral resource estimates, the key assumptions and parameters on which such estimates are based, that the current price of and demand for gold will be sustained or will improve, that general business and economic conditions will not change in a material adverse manner, that financing will be available if and when needed on reasonable terms, that supplies, equipment, personnel, permits and local community approval required to conduct Coventry-s planned exploration and development activities will be available on reasonable terms and that Coventry will not experience any material accident, labour dispute, or failure of equipment.

Such factors include, among others, risks and uncertainties relating to the actual results of exploration activities being different than anticipated, cost of labour increasing more than expected, cost of equipment or materials increasing more than expected, fluctuations in the price of gold and other commodities, currency fluctuations, mineral resources not being as estimated, unexpected variations in mineral resources, grade or recovery rates, risk of accidents, labour disputes and other risks generally associated with mineral exploration and unanticipated delays in obtaining or failing to obtain governmental or community approvals or financing. Although Coventry has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking information, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results to not be as anticipated, estimated or intended.
