        <![CDATA[<p>VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(June 22, 2009) - Bard Ventures Ltd. ("Bard" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:CBS) is pleased to announce that field crews have been mobilized to the field to commence its exploration program on the Lone Pine Property, British Columbia. In 2008, an extensive diamond drilling program consisting of 41 holes for a total of 21,557 meters resulted in delineation of a 43-101 compliant resource within the Alaskite Zone (tabulated below). At a 0.04% Mo cut-off there is a measured and indicated resource of 110,340,000 tonnes grading 0.083% Mo containing approximately 200 million pounds of molybdenum.</p>
<p>The 2009 exploration program will initially focus on geological mapping, soil geochemical survey, prospecting and additional detailed geophysical surveys that will evaluate the new target areas to define specific targets for diamond drilling. The main focus will be in the area proximal to the delineated resource which is located on the west side of a non-mineralized Quartz Feldspar Porphyry. The initial program will focus on the south, east, and north sides of this porphyry where the geological environment is favorable for additional molybdenum mineralization at or near surface. If successful, this will result in an expansion of the current resource and the delineation of near surface mineralization that could serve as the source of initial development within the Lone Pine Property.</p>

        <![CDATA[<p><strong>VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(April 21, 2009) - Bard Ventures Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:CBS) ("Bard" or the "Company")</strong> is pleased to provide this update of activities and an outline of planned exploration in 2009 on the Lone Pine Property, British Columbia. In 2008, an extensive diamond drilling program consisting of 41 holes for a total of 21,557 meters resulted in delineation of a 43-101 compliant resource within the Alaskite Zone (tabulated below). At a 0.04% Mo cut-off there is a measured and indicated resource of 110,340,000 tonnes grading 0.083% Mo containing approximately 200 million pounds of molybdenum. The delineation of this resource and the related geological and technical information has provided an impressive model that is now being used by the Company's technical staff to direct future exploration. Bard has recently completed, based on the model of the Alaskite Zone, a complete review and analysis of the 3D inversion induced polarization and magnetic geophysical surveys and the geological mapping and prospecting based on the model that is now available for the Alaskite Zone. This interpretation has identified new target areas within the Property that show the potential for the discovery of an entirely new zone of mineralization similar to the Alaskite Zone that, in certain cases, may be at or near surface.</p>
<p>Exploration in 2009 will initially focus on geological mapping, prospecting and additional detailed geophysical surveys that will evaluate these new target areas to define specific targets for diamond drilling. The goal of the 2009 exploration program will be to discover new areas of mineralization and to focus on targets that indicate the potential for the discovery of mineralization at or near surface. If successful, this will result in an expansion of the current resource and the delineation of near surface mineralization that could serve as the source of initial development within the Lone Pine Property.</p>
<p>The 2009 program has been designed giving due consideration to the current economic conditions and commodity prices. It will serve to continue to enhance and increase the potential of the Lone Pine Property and to build upon the success that the Company has had in the recent past.</p>

        <![CDATA[<div>
<p><strong>Courtesy of Houston-today.com</strong></p>
<p>Despite increasingly gloomy forecasts, the mining economy in Northwest B.C. is still active.</p>
<p>Commodity prices are falling, but the mineral riches in the region are going to be insurance for years to come. Prices are unpredictable and might soon be on the rebound, people in the industry say.</p>
<p>&ldquo;Moly prices will come back,&rdquo; said Eugene Beukman, president of Bard Ventures, who are currently exploring the Lone Pine property west of Houston. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s going to be a little tough for the next few months but it will turn for sure.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Although the demand for molybdenum may be low, the supply is starting to increase. Bard Ventures recently reported finding a generous amount of the mineral &mdash; 200 million pounds worth &mdash; at the Lone Pine property.</p>
<p>Economic slumps like this call for a tightening of the belt, Beukman adds, but aren&rsquo;t a reason for panic. &ldquo;We have to be fiscally very responsible. We&rsquo;re really looking for how to get the best bang for the buck.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Bard Ventures saves money because they don&rsquo;t have their own drilling program, Beukman notes. &ldquo;Drilling a hole could cost $50,000.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;We&rsquo;ll make use of independent contractors.</p>
<p>On the other hand, Thompson Creek Metals is cutting back on all fronts.</p>
<p>In a Jan. 27 press release, the company announced they would reduce their production of molybdenum to 20 to 24 million pounds, down from a previous target of 31.5 to 34 million pounds.</p>
<p>They also said they were planning a temporary shutdown in the summer for &ldquo;about a month&rdquo; at the Endako mine.</p>
<p>&ldquo;There are others things that we&rsquo;re working on,&rdquo; said Wayne Chevaldayoff, Director of Investor Relations at Thompson Creek, but stressed the company would only announce them &ldquo;when we have a decision.&rdquo;</p>
<p>The company has already announced a halt at the Smithers Davidson Project on Hudson Bay Mountain.</p>
<p>Duncastle Gold Corp, meanwhile, announced substantial findings of silver, copper and zinc at their Porphyry Creek project. The price of silver has fallen over the past year or so, but is now holding steady. And gold, the company&rsquo;s mainstay is doing quite well in the markets holding near the $900 US mark. Not surprisingly, in the past three months, the company&rsquo;s stock has been climbing.</p>
<p>Rob Boyce, Vice President of the Smithers Exploration Group, said that the current market fluctuation is bad for business, but recalls that the mining and exploration industries have weathered crises of the same sort in previous decades.</p>
<p>&ldquo;The early 1980s and 1990s were similar but not as sharp of a drop. So I think it&rsquo;s worse.&rdquo;</p>
<p>However, Boyce said it&rsquo;s too early to pass judgment. In his estimation, the market will become more favourable in the coming months &ldquo;I think 2009 is going to be a difficult year and it will gradually improve late in the year. &ldquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Basically, commodity prices will rise.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Prediction  is a difficult game, he adds. Market fluctuations or new innovations can change things dramatically.</p>
<p>Generally speaking, the industry gets a boost with &ldquo;higher demand for [their] product or a new technology that allows them to process it less expensively.&rdquo;</p>
<p>B.C. has a very rich resource base, he added, and old mines can even be brought out of hibernation.</p>
<p>&ldquo;There&rsquo;s a number of mines that have been operated in the early part of the century that have sat dormant and then have been reopened.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Bulkley Valley-Stikine MLA Dennis Mckay said he&rsquo;s &ldquo;somewhat optimistic that [the economic slowdown] is not going to impact the mining industry as dramatically as some people are forecasting.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;The fact that we&rsquo;re in a bit of an economic tailspin globally does not lessen the demand for the products that come from the mining industry.&rdquo;</p>

      <description>
        <![CDATA[<p><strong>VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Jan. 20, 2009) - Bard Ventures Ltd. ("Bard" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:CBS) </strong>is pleased to announce the following rhenium results from its Lone Pine Molybdenum Property (the "Property"). The Property is located approximately 15 kilometers north-northwest of Houston, BC, and is situated in the Omineca Mining Division. Rhenium assay results have been received and interpreted from drill holes BD-08-25 and BD-08-35.</p>
<p>The exploration drilling on the Lone Pine Property resulted in the discovery of a higher grade zone of molybdenum mineralization within the Alaskite Zone. As drill holes BD-08-25 and BD-08-35 represented the best molybdenum assay results within the higher grade core, rhenium analysis was conducted over the entire drill length of both drill holes. Rhenium is recovered as an economic by-product at some molybdenum porphyry mines. The following significant assay intervals for drill holes BD-08-25 and BD-08-35 are tabulated below:</p>
<p><img src="http://smallcapepicenter.com/images/CBSjan20.JPG" height="304" width="518" /></p>
<p>Rhenium</p>
<p>Rhenium is used as an important component in superalloys for blades in turbine engines and this is the major use today. Rhenium is an ideal metal for use at very high temperatures, which makes it suitable for rocket motors. Rhenium is added to tungsten and molybdenum to form alloys that are used as filaments for ovens and lamps. It is also used in thermocouples which can measure temperatures above 2000 C, and for electrical contacts which stand up well to electric arcs. Rhenium is used in high-temperature superalloys that are used to make jet engine parts and in platinum-rhenium catalysts which in turn are primarily used in making lead-free, high-octane gasoline.</p>
<p>Exploration Goals</p>
<p>Bard is exploring for porphyry type molybdenum mineralization in Cretaceous-aged Bulkley intrusive rocks (Alaskite) and adjacent hornfelsed sedimentary (Argillite) and volcanic rocks (Andesite) of the Telkwa Formation.</p>
<p>Ideal location with established infrastructure</p>
<p>The Property has access to an existing infrastructure including:</p>
<p>- Highway 16;</p>
<p>- a natural gas pipeline;</p>
<p>- a major hydro power transmission line and transformer sub-station;</p>
<p>- And is located only 15 kilometers from the CN rail line in Houston, BC.</p>
<p>Please refer to the Company's website at www.bardventures.com for drill hole locations and additional information.</p>
<p>Bard is earning a 100% interest in the Property under the terms of an option agreement (see News Release dated September 15, 2006). The Lone Pine exploration work is being conducted under the supervision of Qualified Person Jim Miller-Tait, P. Geo., a Director of Bard.</p>
<p>Pulp samples from BD-08-25 and BD-08-35 were analyzed by Acme Analytical Laboratories in Vancouver utilizing the Group 1F methodology. Analytical procedure consisted of an Aqua Regia digestion and Ultratrace ICP-MS analysis.</p>

<p>The resource estimation has been prepared by GeoSim Resources Inc., under the direction of Ronald G. Simpson, P.Geo., an independent Qualified Person for the purpose of NI 43-101. A report under NI 43-101 disclosing these updated Lone Pine resources is being prepared by GeoSim Services Inc. and will be filed by Bard Ventures Ltd. on SEDAR within 45 days. Mr. Simpson has reviewed and approved the contents of this news release.</p>
<p>There are no known drilling, sampling, recovery, or other factors that could materially affect the accuracy or reliability of the data used to prepare the mineral resource included in this news release. Bard is not aware of any environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or any other relevant issues by which the mineral resource included in this news release may be materially affected.</p>
<p>The drill core, placed in wooden boxes, was logged, photographed, and split using a hydraulic core splitter at the Company's core logging facility in Smithers. In general, samples of halved core were taken every 2 meters. Litho-breaks, especially dykes, eventually forced an uneven sample proportion. Samples were bagged in plastic bags including the sample interval tags and sample number. Every 20th sample, either a blank or a standard material was put in a bag with a tag and sample number. From BD-08-33 on a second standard was used, so the sequence every 20th sample was Blank-standard01-standard02-Blank for quality control purposes.</p>
<p>Samples from BD-07-01 to BD-07-20 were shipped by Canadian Freightways in Smithers to Acme Analytical Laboratories in Vancouver, B.C. for analysis. Samples from BD-07-21 to BD-08-32 were shipped by Canadian Freightways in Smithers to Eco Tech Laboratory of Kamloops, B.C. for analysis. Samples from BD-08-33 on were shipped to Acme Analytical Laboratories in Smithers, B.C. for preparation. Acme Smithers send the split sample to their facility in Vancouver, B.C. for analysis. Both Eco Tech Laboratory of Kamloops and Acme Analytical of Vancouver, B.C. are ISO 9001:2000 accredited laboratories.</p>
<p>The drill core was prepared for assaying using Acme's R150 prep method, and assaying was then completed for 35 element including Mo, Cu, Pb, Zn and Ag utilizing their 1E ICP-ES package. The R150 prep package consists of crushing 1kg of sample to 70% passing 10 mesh, then 250g of this material is split and pulverized to 95% passing 150 mesh. A 0.25g split of this material is then heated in HNO3-HCIO4-HF to fuming and taken to dryness. The residue is dissolved in HCL, and then the solution is analyzed by ICP. Mo assays exceeding 4,000ppm were re-assayed using Group 7TD Single Element (Mo) Assay by ICP-ES and 4-Acid Digestion. Eco Tech uses the similar procedure except the threshold for Mo re-assay was 500ppm. The split drill core is currently stored in a yard at the core logging facilities in Smithers. The stacks of cores are covered by a tin roof. The storage yard is fenced in and locked. The pulp samples are stored in an insulated shed.</p>
<p>The Company is very pleased with the resource of the Alaskite Zone. "This is only one of several known mineralized areas on the Lone Pine Property," stated Eugene Beukman, President. "This resource, as well as the recently reported positive metallurgical results (see news release dated January 9, 2009), adds critical components to the economics of the Lone Pine mineralization. We are extremely excited with the excellent results to date, and look forward to an aggressive exploration year ahead." The information from the resource calculations and the Company's database will help guide future exploration on the Lone Pine Property.</p>
<p>Ideal location with established infrastructure</p>
<p>The Property has access to an existing infrastructure including:</p>
<p>- Highway 16;</p>
<p>- a natural gas pipeline;</p>
<p>- a major hydro power transmission line and transformer sub-station; and</p>

        <![CDATA[<div><strong>VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire -Dec. 15, 2008) - Bard Ventures Ltd. ("Bard" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:CBS)</strong> is pleased to provide this summary on the completed 2008 exploration activities on its 3,155 hectare Lone Pine Molybdenum Property (the "Property") situated in the Omineca Mining Division approximately 15 kilometres north-northwest of Houston, BC. The claims cover several known molybdenum showings named the Quartz Breccia, Granby, Mineral Hill Zones and the main high priority Alaskite Zone that has been the focus of the majority of the diamond drilling completed to date.</div>
<p>Diamond Drilling</p>
<p>The main exploration method, which started in January 2008, has been diamond drilling with emphasis on the Alaskite Zone and additional drilling completed in the Quartz Breccia and Granby Zones. Twenty-five drill holes totaling 15,739.6 metres were drilled in the Alaskite Zone, 2,476.7 metres were drilled in five drill holes in the Quartz Breccia Zone and 576.7 metres were drilled in two drill holes in the Granby Zone. A total of 18,793 metres were drilled in 2008 on the Lone Pine Property.</p>
<p>The drilling programs completed to date have provided positive results and have also confirmed molybdenum mineralization in all holes drilled over the entire Lone Pine Property. The drilling in the Alaskite Zone has confirmed a higher grade molybdenum core within a larger, approximately 550 metres by 310 metres in plan view, mineralized body that has a northwest/southeast attitude and a steep southwesterly dip. The significant assay results from the Company's drilling to date on the Lone Pine Property are tabulated below with the most significant intersections in the Alaskite Zone high-lighted in bold:</p>

<p>The last six drill holes in the 2008 exploration drilling program were designed to test the northwestern boundary of the Alaskite Zone. All drill holes encountered molybdenum mineralization although lower grade. The best drill hole was in BD-08-43 which encountered molybdenum mineralization with the best intercept being 232 meters of 0.04% Mo between 19-251m including 0.07% Mo over 46 meters between 55-101m. Drill holes BD-08-43 to BD-08-48 were vertical drill holes that collared into andesites and then continued to depth with intercalated andesite/alaskite before being shutdown in the quartz feldspar porphyry pluton.<br /> <br />Mapping<br /> <br />Geological surface mapping<br /> <br />A geological mapping program was initiated on the Lone Pine Property covering the Alaskite and Quartz Breccia Zones. Success in this mapping program has allowed Bard to better understand the constraints of the known alaskite intrusive as well as better enhance the future exploration on the property with additional proposed drill targets in other outlying areas of similar geological interest.<br /> <br />Orthophotography<br /> <br />Eagle Mapping Ltd., of Port Coquitlam, B.C., was contracted to complete an aerial photograph of the Lone Pine Property claims. These digital maps and orthophotography will be utilized in the forthcoming National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101") resource estimate.<br /> <br />Resource Estimate and National Instrument 43-101 Report<br /> <br />After success of the drill holes in the Alaskite Zone, Bard has contracted Ron Simpson of GeoSim Services Inc. to complete a NI 43-101 compatible resource estimate and report on the project. The NI 43-101 report, though originally slated for release in the fourth quarter, is expected to be completed in early January 2009.<br /> <br />Metallurgical Studies<br /> <br />Bard submitted representative core of the Alaskite Zone molybdenum mineralization to G&amp;T Metallurgical Services Ltd. of Kamloops, British Columbia, for metallurgical testing.

        <![CDATA[<div>
<p style="font-style: italic; color: #000099;">U.S. infrastructure proposals are spreading a bit of seasonal Christmas cheer to a depressed domestic mining and metals industry.</p>
<p><span> Author: Dorothy Kosich<br /> Posted:  Wednesday , 10 Dec 2008 <br /> </span></p>
<p><span>RENO, NV</span> -</p>
<p>Gold and commodity prices are benefitting from President-elect Barack Obama's proposed $136 billion infrastructure economic stimulus program, expected to generate up to 2.5 million U.S. jobs by 2011.</p>
<p>In a base metals industry report Tuesday, Canada's Haywood Securities say they believe the infrastructure program will also increase demand for molybdenum.</p>
<p>Caterpillar, engineering groups, and Brazilian steelmakers emerged as big winners on the NYSE Monday while industries as diverse as mining and internet companies are expected to economically benefit from the program.</p>
<p>Gold prices also rallied Monday along with other precious metals prices and commodities. Gold futures recorded modest gains on Tuesday, rising $ 4.90 to end at $774.20 an ounce on the NYMEX.</p>
<p>Federal lawmakers are scrambling to create their own infrastructure packages, including Rep. James Oberstar, D-Minnesota, chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, who has just proposed a $45 billion plan called Rebuild America. It calls for $18.25 billion for highways and bridges, $9 billion for environmental infrastructure, $6.5 billion for public transit, $2 billion for railways, $5 billion for the Army Corps of Engineers, and $1 billion for aviation.</p>
<p>Projects that could award contracts in 90 to 120 days would be given priority in Oberstar's proposal.</p>
<p>The nation's governors have also proposed $136 billion in infrastructure projects and has established a coalition for infrastructure investment. The U.S. Conference of Mayors Monday proposed 11,391 infrastructure projects, which would cost $73 billion. House of Representatives Ways and Means Committee Chair Charlie Rangel, Oberstar and several mayors participated in a press conference Monday to announce "ready-to-go" infrastructure projects that could be started and completed within two years.</p>
<p><strong>Moly Demand</strong></p>
<p>In their report issued Tuesday, Haywood analysts Stefan Ioannou and Danny Ochoa noted that more than 115,000 kilometres of new oil pipeline is planned over the next seven years. The oil and gas pipeline industry is an important consumer of steel.</p>
<p>While moly demand is expected to remain weak through the first half of next year, "the metal's longer-term outlook remains strong," they advised.</p>
<p>As moly demand grows at a rate of 4% to 6% each year, it requires the equivalent of one new molybdenum mine to come into production each year "over the foreseeable future." However, the analysts noted that only three advanced stage +20 million pound per annum development projects are currently under consideration: Freeport-McMoRan's Climax project in Colorado, General Moly's Mt. Hope project in Nevada, and Moly Mines' Spinifex Ridge project in Western Australia. Most new significant development projects are currently being delayed, the analysts said, including Thompson Creek's Davidson project and a mill expansion at its Endako project.</p>
<p>Haywood noted that both Thompson Creek delays "are a result of the low moly price environment and the company's capital preservation initiative."</p>
<p>Meanwhile, Chile, the world's second largest moly producer, is experiencing substantial reduction in moly production, which was down 26% during the first 10 months of this year.</p>
<p>The analysts also advised that "Chinese exporters have abandoned the moly market over the past three weeks given weak prices."</p>
<p>"Although large consumers in Europe remain out of the moly market, the Chinese have re-commenced buying albeit in thin volumes. The moly (oxide) price has responded positively, up to US$11/lb currently from a recent low of about US$9.80/lb," they added.</p>

      <title>[Industry Bulletin] Got Gold Report – Canadian Insiders Buying Despite Dismal CDNX</title>

        <![CDATA[<div>
<p></p><span style="font-size: 12px; font-family: verdana;"><strong><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: xx-small;">A</span></strong>TLANTA (<a href="http://www.resourceinvestor.com/" target="_blank">ResourceInvestor.com</a>) -- Small mining and exploration companies have been decimated. Many literally now trade for a tenth or less of what they did a year ago. The small resource companies, especially the ones that trade on the smaller, less liquid exchanges, are the cheapest (relative to their bigger cousins and relative to gold) they have ever been right now.
</span><p align="justify">November of 2008 has been a dark time for the &ldquo;little guys&rdquo; of the worldwide mining business. However, during the height of the panic sell downs in October and November, when investors sold anything and everything out of terror into virtually no bids; as prices for the small, but promising miners and explorers literally fell from dollars to mere pennies, some of those miners and explorers saw exceptionally strong buying from one very important, very telling source: company insiders. More about that below, but first a very sober damage report.</p>
<p align="justify"><strong><span style="font-size: xx-small;">A flood of blood in the streets in Canada</span> </strong></p>
<p align="justify">It is difficult to imagine how the chart below could look any uglier. The chart is the S&amp;P Canadian TSX Venture Exchange or CDNX. This is the index which is the closest gauge to what is happening in the small resource sector.</p>
<p align="justify">Just since July the CDNX plunged a 5-month record 74%. Never before has the CDNX traded at such low levels relative to gold metal. Indeed, as of Friday, November 28, the CDNX was trading below where it traded at the bottom of the gold bear market in 2001; lower than when gold changed hands for just $255.00 the ounce.</p>
<p align="justify"><img src="http://www.resourceinvestor.com/MediaLib/Images/Home/Sections/GoldSilver/Got%20gold%2012-2-08%20one.png" /></p>
<p align="justify">To put things in harsh perspective, below is the CDNX compared to gold monthly since the previous gold bear market ended in 2001. As recently as May of 2008 the CDNX divided by the price of gold held a ratio of about 5.0. As of last week, the ratio had fallen so far, so fast that it had dropped to under 1.0.</p>
<p align="justify">Even back at the end of the great 20-year bear market for gold the ratio couldn&rsquo;t drop below 2.7. If the ratio was 2.74 in late 2002, when gold traded for $270 (it was), then last week&rsquo;s all time CDNX low of 685.07 had the Canadian miners and explorers trading as though gold metal was at $222.00. Silver was just over $4.00 in Late 2002. So the CDNX was discounting silver to something like $3.30 the ounce.</p>

<p align="justify"><strong>Dysfunctional markets </strong></p>
<p align="justify">What we have just witnessed is the reverse of a short squeeze. We just saw a panic liquidation. So many people, funds and investors selling in panic when there were very few buyers. When there is strong selling pressure into no buying; when the market is skewed in favor of the short sellers so severely; when there is essentially no market for something, the market becomes dysfunctional and can go to the most severe of excessive overshoots to the downside.</p>
<p align="justify">This report believes that is exactly what has happened in the small, less liquid and very speculative markets for miners and explorers. Some investors panicked, so convinced by the dire and worsening economic news between July and November that the world was once again plunging into a deflationary depression, that they just wanted to preserve what little cash remained in their shares of these companies.</p>
<p align="justify">As more and more sold into fewer and fewer buyers, ruthless Bermuda, Bahamas, Russia and Germany-based short-selling sharks (working through enabling Canadian and Frankfurt broker/dealers) kept relentless pressure on these little companies, helping to drive them to levels so low they defied all reason. In many cases companies have been driven to well below their cash on hand regardless and despite the company having viable, economic resources. Companies were looked at solely on the basis of their net cash, cash versus their pending liabilities <em>and then discounted</em>!  No value was assigned for reserves or resources as The Worst unfolded.</p>
<p align="justify"><strong><span style="font-size: xx-small;">It&rsquo;s about liquidity</span> </strong></p>
<p align="justify">One severe problem has been simple liquidity. The trading float on many of these Canadian companies is quite large relative to the number of shares which change hands each day. Many of them are or were owned by funds of all sizes. Funds held millions of shares of companies that only usually traded a few tens of thousands of shares daily or even weekly. Funds that either blew up or were forced to sell off large blocks of the small companies at precisely the time when there was no one buying. That is bad medicine for stock prices.</p>
<p align="justify">The seemingly inexplicably huge drops in price accentuated the panic. The Worst had happened. Stockholders watched in horror as their beloved small junior resource companies fell in huge percentages on relatively light volume, day after day, after day. Fear ruled so much and so pervasively that the small resource sector became a killing fields for investors.</p>
<p align="justify">The net effect has been that the entire illiquid Canadian market has become a distortion of value instead of a measure of it for the resources sector. This report still believes that it has also become one of the best opportunities we will ever see in this generation. That&rsquo;s if all the economic stimulus and government meddling in the financial markets manages to do no more damage and we see a recovery of even a fraction of the confidence that these markets used to enjoy.</p>
<p align="justify"><strong><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Tax loss selling big business in Canada</span> </strong></p>
<p align="justify">Right now tax loss selling is a major drag on the CDNX, both in Canada and in the U.S. It is especially a factor in Canada, because liberal tax laws there allow investors to recover taxes paid in prior years by taking losses this year. That&rsquo;s true even for the largest holders, for which the shares became more valuable as a tax write off in Canada than for the future prospects of the company.</p>
<p align="justify">When investors (taxpayers) can reclaim tax money they paid two or even three years ago, hard cash, from the government by taking a tax loss today, it has to increase the amount of tax loss selling immensely. Remember that during December. It&rsquo;s why there is a rush to do significant tax loss selling in Canada in October and November.</p>
<p align="justify">So there really is a deluge of blood in the streets in the small resources sector. Panic selling, fear of financial Armageddon, funds blowing up or raising cash for redemptions, forced selling, short selling opportunistic sharks and tax loss selling &ndash; all into nonexistent buying &ndash; has created the mother of all CDNX plunges and, hopefully, one of the best opportunities ever.</p>
<p align="justify">There is one group of investors that certainly has been buying into all the brutal carnage during October and November. They have been buying as never before and are what many feel are the smartest money in the markets, too. The big buyers are insiders of the companies themselves.</p>
<p align="justify"><strong><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Insiders buying like crazy despite the dismal CDNX</span> </strong></p>
<p align="justify">While we have witnessed a reasonably good bounce on the HUI over the past few trading days (the HUI was up another 16% last week and, as of Friday, November 28 was actually up 64% from its Oct 10 bottom), the small Canadian resource companies barely registered any gain at all. While worrisome, it is not unexpected since so many of the best names in the resource business have been taken down to such amazingly cheap levels.</p>
<p align="justify">Money floods back into the best first after a brutal plunge. Only after that; only after a little confidence returns, will investment money flow seek the more risky, more speculative, but potentially much more rewarding companies on the Canadian exchanges.</p>
<p align="justify">When compared to the HUI, the CDNX shows a dismal performance so far.</p>
<p align="justify"><img src="http://www.resourceinvestor.com/MediaLib/Images/Home/Sections/GoldSilver/got%20gold%2012-02-08%20three.png" /></p>
<p align="justify">As the Big Markets attempt to find a little confidence, let's be thankful for that. As each of you spends the quality time with family this holiday season, as is meant to be, here's a ray of hope for beleaguered, battered and beaten up Canadian junior miners and explorers.</p>
<p align="justify">Below is a chart of the buying/selling activity by insiders, the officers, directors and employees of Canadian companies provided by <a href="http://www.canadianinsider.com/index.php" target="_blank">INK Research</a>.</p>
<p align="justify"><img src="http://www.resourceinvestor.com/MediaLib/Images/Home/Sections/GoldSilver/got%20gold%2012-02-08%20four.png" /></p>
<p align="justify">Source INK Research.  Note: Since this graph was created, the ratio rose even higher, to 546% as of November 26.</p>
<p align="justify"><strong><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Insiders:  &ldquo;Damn the torpedoes, buy, buy, buy&rdquo;</span> </strong></p>
<p align="justify">Officers, directors and employees of companies can be the smartest money to watch. They are obviously in position to know whether or not their company has been mistreated by the market, whether or not their company has "things about to happen," whether or not their company is "onto something big," and, of course, whether or not their company is about to close their doors and pack it in.</p>
<p align="justify">In Canada, insiders are required to report all changes in their ownership positions in a timely manner. INK Research tracks those changes in insider ownership.</p>
<p align="justify">Nothing says "I think my company is cheap," louder and more believably than when the insiders are buying the common stock that management has already given them many options on for free. Nothing says more about what the expectations of a company's prospects are than when insiders are buying <strong>in large numbers of shares and in multiple transactions</strong> when the stock is down big (very good), or, conversely, when the insiders are selling in large numbers and often once the stock has been pummeled (very bad).</p>
<p align="justify">The above chart tracks the 60-day movement of Canadian companies reporting 100% buys by insiders versus companies reporting 100% sells by insiders. When this indicator is at 200%, that is a very high and usually bullish reading, such as it was back in January. Rarely does this 60-day indicator <em>ever</em> rise above 200%, as that indicates a very grossly oversold market in general. Remember: company stock is more often sold by insiders than bought, as stock is a form of compensation to the executives and employees of so many of these companies. So, when we see this 60-day index as high as 200% that is unusual, it is something out of the ordinary. It is screaming that insiders think Canadian stocks are way undervalued.</p>
<p align="justify">Well, the panic selling of all things risky accelerated in September-November. As people fearfully (and foolishly) sold anything and everything into virtually no bids, driving the share prices of many of the Canadian companies down to below-basement levels, (literally from a few dollars to mere pennies in so many of them it boggles the mind), this insider buy/sell tracking index rose right through 200%, but it didn't stop at an unheard of 250%, or even 300%. It didn't even slow down in its gigantic rise when it hit a stratospheric 350% or 400%. No, friends, this index has reached the positively, amazingly high level of over 500%!</p>
<p align="justify">Right or wrong, Canadian insiders think their stocks are bloody dang cheap as of Thanksgiving Day in the U.S. And, they are saying that in a most believable way: with their money.</p>
<p align="justify">Want to check the last 10 insider transactions on your favorite Canadian company for free?  Here's <a href="http://www.canadianinsider.com/index.php" target="_blank">the link</a>.</p>
<p align="justify">Just type in the symbol in the upper right box without the exchange tag. Example: Almaden Minerals is AMM.T in Canada, but on the INK Research site just type "AMM." Gold Port Resources is GPO.V in Canada, but just use "GPO" in the INK Research search box.</p>
<p align="justify">With the share prices of so many companies so very low, resource investors will want to see the insiders buying and buying in large numbers on their favorite Canadian companies. That's if they want to be more confident they can come through the Cat-5 stock hurricane of 2008.</p>
<p align="justify">The way to view so many of the small miners and explorers at this point is that they represent inexpensive options. Very inexpensive in some cases. Options that don&rsquo;t expire unless the company does.</p>
<p align="justify">Sure, many of the companies will not survive the brutal destruction of value we just endured. Some will, though, and if they do, they could turn into the proverbial 20 or 30-bagger every stock speculator dreams about.</p>
<p align="justify">Right now, when there is truly blood in the streets, seems like a very good time to see which companies have executives that think enough of the company&rsquo;s prospects to risk their own cash money on their own company when the chips are way, way down. Which execs are buying these long-term &ldquo;options&rdquo; that trade like stock on the Canadian stock exchanges.</p>
<p align="justify">It&rsquo;s also a good time to see which companies have execs that are throwing in the towel.</p>
<p align="justify">That&rsquo;s it for this special Got Gold Report.  Until next time, as always, MIND YOUR STOPS.</p>

<p><strong>VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA - Nov. 19, 2008 - Bard Ventures Ltd. ("Bard") or (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:CBS) </strong>has received the results from BD-08-41 and BD-08-42 drill holes and is very pleased to announce the following drill results from its Lone Pine Molybdenum Property (the "Property"). The Property is located approximately 15 kilometers north-northwest of Houston, BC, and is situated in the Omineca Mining Division.</p>
<p>Final assay results have been received and interpreted from drill holes BD-08-41 and BD-08-42. The significant intervals for drill hole BD-08-42 are tabulated below:</p>
<p><img src="http://www.smallcapepicenter.com/images/CBS20nov.bmp" height="146" width="525" /></p>
<p>Hole BD-08-41: This vertical drill hole was located northeast of the proposed extension of the interpreted alaskite mineralized corridor, 75 meters northeast of BD-08-37 and 100 meters west-northwest of BD-07-18. The rocks intersected are dominantly "hanging wall" andesites with weak to locally moderate veining and anomalous molybdenum mineralization.</p>
<p>Hole BD-08-42: A vertical drill hole, was collared 100 meters northwest of BD-08-38 and 50 meters southwest of BD-08-37. The drill hole collared into andesite at 10.67 meters before intersecting alaskite between 56.20 - 124.50 meters. Andesite was intersected between 124.50 - 201.00 meters followed by a lengthy intercept of alaskite between 201.00 - 545.00 meters. The drill hole was shutdown in the quartz feldspar porphyry pluton at a depth of 569.03 meters. The mineralization within BD-08-42 was consistent with the mineralization encountered 100 meters to the southeast in drill hole BD-08-38, thus extending the higher grade zone of the Alaskite Zone an additional 100 meters to the northwest. Molybdenum mineralization remains open to the northwest and continues to support the interpreted geological model.</p>
<p>The alaskite intrusive is the main focus of the Lone Pine Property drilling and has been interpreted as being the most favorable lithology for molybdenum mineralization. The alaskite intrusive to date continues to be drilled to the northwest of its original outcropping occurrence, the BD-07-01 area, with exploration advancement to the northwest ongoing. The alaskite intrusive has been interpreted to plan view as being currently 510 meters in length and 310 meters in width with molybdenum mineralization tested to a depth of 843 meters. A higher grade corridor of molybdenum mineralization has been outlined within the alaskite intrusive as shown in the favourable assay results from BD-07-16, BD-08-24, BD-08-25, BD-08-28, BD-08-29, BD-08-32, BD-08-35, BD-08-38, and now BD-08-42.</p>
<p>Geological and stratigraphic information from all holes as well as recent surface mapping suggests the alaskite intrusive continues to the northwest. The geophysical surveys, total field magnetics in particular, concur with this geological interpretation.</p>
<p>Ideal location with established infrastructure</p>
<p>The Property has access to an existing infrastructure including:</p>
<p>- Highway 16;</p>
<p>- a natural gas pipeline;</p>
<p>- a major hydro power transmission line and transformer sub-station; and</p>
<p>- is located only 15 kilometers from the CN rail line in Houston, BC.</p>
<p>A plan of the drill holes in the Alaskite Zone may be viewed on the Company's website at www.bardventures.com.</p>
<p>Bard is earning a 100% interest in the Property under the terms of an option agreement (see News Release dated September 15, 2006). The Lone Pine exploration work is being conducted under the supervision of Qualified Person Jim Miller-Tait, P.Geo., a Director of Bard.</p>
<p>Samples from BD-08-41 and BD-08-42 are being analyzed by Acme Analytical Laboratories in Vancouver utilizing the Group 1E methodology. Analytical procedures consist of a 31 element ICP analysis followed by assay for any molybdenum ICP analyses greater than 4000 ppm.</p>

<p><img src="http://agoracom.com/agoraimages/cbs4nov.bmp" height="252" width="530" /></p>
<p>Hole BD-08-39, a vertical drill hole, collared into alaskite at 15.37 meters and continued in the intrusive through to 180 meters before intersecting intercalated alaskite and andesite rocks to 260 meters. Alaskite intrusive was encountered again from 260 - 413 meters, with andesite between 413 - 556 meters. The hole was shutdown in quartz feldspar porphyry pluton at 572.08 meters. BD-08-39 was collared between drill holes BD-07-16 and BD-08-24 and was designed to test the northern extent of the high grade corridor encountered by other alaskite zone drill holes. Favorable molybdenum mineralization and abundant stock work veining was visible throughout the drill hole correlating well with grade and the geological interpretation.</p>
<p>Hole BD-08-40, a vertical drill hole, was collared 100 meters northwest of BD-08-39 and 50 meters northeast of BD-08-36. The drill hole collared into andesite at 12.20 meters before intersecting lengthy intervals of intercalated alaskite and andesite between 23.60 - 531.00 meters. The barren quartz feldspar porphyry pluton, encountered at 531 meters was drilled to a depth of 556.84 meters before the hole was shutdown.</p>
<p>The alaskite intrusive is the main focus of the Lone Pine Property drilling and has been interpreted as being the most favorable lithology for molybdenum mineralization. The alaskite intrusive to date continues to be drilled to the northwest of its original outcropping occurrence, drill hole BD-07-01 area, with exploration advancement to the northwest ongoing.

        <![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">VANCOUVER, BRITISH  COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Oct. 23, 2008) - Bard Ventures Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:CBS)  ("Bard") or (the "Company") has received the results from BD-08-37 and BD-08-38  drill holes and is very pleased to announce the following drill results from its  Lone Pine Molybdenum Property (the "Property"). The Property is located  approximately 15 kilometers north-northwest of Houston, BC, and is situated in  the Omineca Mining Division.<br /><br />Final assay results received and interpreted  from drill holes BD-08-37 and BD-08-38 are as follows:</span></p>

<td width="100%"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Hole BD-08-37 was a vertical drill hole that collared into andesite at 15.30m  followed by intercalated andesite and alaskite through to 163.00m. Andesite was  encountered between 163.00 - 467.00m with minor intercalated alaskite throughout  before intersecting the quartz feldspar porphyry. The drillhole was shutdown at  572.08m. Molybdenum mineralization and sulphide enrichment was generally weak  throughout this drillhole; however, location of existing mineralized corridor  continues to suggest a northwesterly trend. BD-08-37 is located approximately  370m northwest of BD-07-01.<br /><br />Hole BD-08-38, a vertical drillhole, was  collared 100m northwest of BD-08-35. The entire drill hole from bedrock at  18.29m to the final depth of 715.02m assays 0.08% Mo (0.13MoS2) over 696.73m.  The drillhole collared into Alaskite intrusive at 18.29m through to 583.40m  before intersecting a moderate interval of intercalated Alaskite and andesite  between 583.40 - 702.00. Quartz feldspar porphyry pluton, the typical shutdown  rock was drilled through to 715.02m. Molybdenum mineralization in BD-08-38 is  quite strong and extends the known boundaries of the high grade portion of the  alaskite intrusive an additional 100m to the northwest of BD-08-35.<br /><br />The  Alaskite intrusive is the main focus of the Lone Pine Property drilling and has  been interpreted as being the most favorable lithology for molybdenum  mineralization. The Alaskite intrusive to date continues to be drilled to the  northwest of its original outcropping occurrence, BD-07-01 area, with  exploration advancement to the northwest ongoing. The Alaskite intrusive has  been interpreted to plan view as being currently 510m in length and 310m in  width with molybdenum mineralization tested to a depth of 843m. A higher grade  corridor of molybdenum mineralization has been outlined within the Alaskite  intrusive as shown in the favourable assay results from BD-07-16, BD-08-24,  BD-08-25, BD-08-28, BD-08-29, BD-08-32, BD-08-35 and now BD-08-38.<br />Geological  and stratigraphic information from all holes as well as recent surface mapping  suggests the Alaskite intrusive continues to the northwest. The geophysical  surveys, total field magnetics in particular, concur with this geological  interpretation.<br /><br />Mapping<br /><br />Bard is pleased to announce that Eagle  Mapping Ltd., of Port Coquitlam, B.C., has completed the aerial photography of  the Lone Pine Property claims. These digital maps and orthophotography will be  utilized in the forthcoming National Instrument 43-101 resource  estimate.<br /><br />Ideal location with established infrastructure<br /><br />The  Property has access to an existing infrastructure including:<br /><br />- Highway  16;<br /><br />- a natural gas pipeline;<br /><br />- a major hydro power transmission  line and transformer sub-station;<br /><br />- and is located only 15 kilometers  from the CN rail line in Houston, BC.<br /><br />A plan of the drill holes in the  Alaskite Zone may be viewed on the Company's website at <a href="http://www.bardventures.com/" title="blocked::http://www.bardventures.com/" target="_blank">www.bardventures.com</a>.<br /><br />Bard is earning a 100% interest  in the Property under the terms of an option agreement (See News Release dated  September 15, 2006). The Lone Pine exploration work is being conducted under the  supervision of Qualified Person Jim Miller-Tait, P. Geo., a Director of  Bard.<br /><br />Samples from BD-08-37 and BD-08-38 are being analyzed by Acme  Analytical Laboratories in Vancouver utilizing the Group 1E methodology.  Analytical procedures consist of a 31 element ICP analysis followed by assay for  any molybdenum ICP analyses greater than 4000 ppm.<br /><br />On behalf  of:<br /><br />Bard Ventures Ltd.<br /><br />Eugene Beukman, President<br /><br />For all  Bard Ventures Ltd. investor relations needs investors are asked to visit the  Bard Ventures Ltd.
