     WESTHAVEN COMMENCES DRILLING ON ITS SHOVELNOSE GOLD PROPERTY
__________________________________________________________________________________________

Vancouver, B.C. � September 2, 2014 � Westhaven Ventures Inc. (TSX-V:WHN) is pleased to
announce drilling has begun on its 18,412 hectare Shovelnose gold property, located within the
prospective Spences Bridge Gold Belt (SBGB), approximately 30 km south of Merritt, British
Columbia.

The drill program will consist of approximately 600 metres of diamond drilling with the goal to
further expand and outline the extent of the newly recognized epithermal gold system present on the
property. Drilling to date has expanded a highly anomalous silicified zone or cap when a sub
horizontal near surface zone grading 0.54 g/t Au and 4.77 g/t Ag over 50.4 metres, which includes
13.7 metres grading 0.91 g/t Au and 6.65 g/t Ag, was intersected in 2012.

Shovelnose Gold Property Overview

To date, 20 drill holes (2 were abandoned in overburden) have been diamond drilled for a cumulative
total of 2,427 metres, in three separate target areas. Gold and silver mineralization, associated with
quartz veining and silicification, has been encountered in all 18 holes. In addition, there is evidence of
a significant mineralized alteration system within the property where float samples grading 119 g/t
Au (Gold) and 273 g/t Ag (Silver), veins in trenching grading 66 g/t Au and wide low grade
alteration zones typical of epithermal gold deposits have been discovered.

The 18,412 ha Shovelnose gold property is a gold-silver epithermal-style exploration target that
covers prospective stratigraphy in the southern Spences Bridge Gold Belt (SBGB), a 110 km
northwest-trending belt of intermediate to felsic volcanic rocks of the Cretaceous Spences Bridge
Group. Westhaven is currently working to earn up to a 70% interest in the property from Strongbow
Exploration Inc., a TSX-V listed company.
