Dear VMS and NAN followers,

In these challenging markets, we are committed to getting our VMS Ventures and North American Nickel stories exposure in as many forms as possible, and, as widely as possible.

Here are two recent VMS Ventures articles. One is on Mining.com called 'Reed Copper Project: The next mining milestone in Manitoba’ and the other, recently published in the Mining & Exploration Magazine, is called 'Excited by the Hunt', featuring John Roozendaal, President of VMS. John’s name and the article are featured on the cover of the Mining and Exploration Magazine as part of their Rock Stars column series. The cover and links to both are below.

About four months ago, in one of our e-mail blasts, we introduced you to Peak Communicators, British Columbia's largest independent Public Relations firm, whom we have worked with the past eighteen months to raise awareness of VMS Ventures. In June, we renewed our contract with Peak and have included North American Nickel to share costs and to be sure our Maniitsoq story is getting as much attention as possible.

Peak has been very successful reaching out to mining industry publications and, also, building our social media presence. And, in response to one shareholders concern, this is a very reasonable contractual agreement and the benefits have been many.

So far in 2013, Peak has helped generate over 20 pieces of media coverage in numerous publications including Mining Weekly, Canadian Business Journal, International Resource Journal, Copper Investing News and most recently Mining & Exploration Magazine and Mining.com. To view these articles, you can always visit the  Analyst and Press Coverage page on the VMS website at: http://www.vmsventures.com/investors/analysts-and-events/default.aspx  and for North American Nickel at http://www.northamericannickel.com/investors/analyst-and-press-coverage/default.aspx

As I noted recently, please visit our new VMS website that has been in the works for the last four months. We welcome any comments or feedback to Jaclyn (info@vmsventures.com).

The markets may be quiet, but with Peak’s help we are getting our stories to people in and around the worldwide mining industry.

Best regards,
