Goldex Releases Assays from Phase One Drill Program at El Arco

 

VANCOUVER, BC – Goldex Resources Corporation (TSX VENTURE: GDX) (“Goldex” or the “Company”) today announced results from the phase one drill program on its Mexican property, El Arco. El Arco represents a newly discovered gold-silver system that has seen no previous exploration activity. The property is located in the Central Plateau gold and silver belt, near the historic silver-lead-zinc district of Tejamen in the state of Durango, Mexico. El Arco demonstrates low sulphidation epithermal-style banded quartz veinlets similar to those found at the surface in the La Cienga district also located in Durango. The project consists of two mineral exploration licenses that cover 3,381 hectares. Surface samples have confirmed the presence of both high-grade gold and silver values.

A 4000m reverse circulation drill program over 13 holes was conducted in January of 2012 to NI 43-101 standards presided over by Steve Friberg, a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101. Drill holes ranged from 100m to 300m in depth over an area of around 1 square kilometre. A number of steep quartz veins are visible at surface and the phase one program was designed to test a model concept of an underlying andesite being a better host rock for mineralization. Andesite was intersected in almost every hole and quartz veins where intersected in all holes.  The quartz veins intersected appeared to pinch and swell bothalong strike and down dip.  Twelve of the holes were angled to better intersect the quartz vein zones.

Anomalous gold and silver values were intersected in the sampled quartz veins.  Each sample measured 5 foot in length. 35 samples contained from 0.10 to 0.63 g/t Au and 2 samples contained in excess of 1 g/t.  54 samples ranged from 1 g/T Ag up to 4 g/T and 3 samples had 5.8 g/T Ag up to maximum of 7.0 g/T Ag. Remaining samples contained no appreciable results.  All drill holes encountered abundant groundwater flow which can have an effect on sample quality. Samples were assayed for gold and silver by Inspectorate labs located in Reno, Nevada after being transported from theirsample preparation lab in Durango, Mexico.

A phase two program is now being planned with the aim of testing the system at depth. It has been recommended by the attending QP that a fluid inclusion study be undertaken to determine the level of boiling for the veins to give an idea of whether the target is deeper than currently tested. Exploration of the area immediately to the north of the phase one program is also planned.  A preponderance of scattered gold values up to almost 21 g/T have been documented by the surface sampling within the +1,000m long by 500m wide set of NNW-trending quartz veins in the phase one area.

Goldex Assays Multiple High Grade Gold/Silver Samples up to 410 g/t Au from Northern Zones at El Pato

VANCOUVER, BC – Goldex Resources Corporation (TSX VENTURE: GDX) (“Goldex” or the “Company”) today announced further high grade gold and silver assays sampled from the newly explored Northern Zones at El Pato, its flagship property in Guatemala.

The four areas sampled were El Poxte, El Jabillo, Plan de Guineo and El Pital. Surface samples were taken by Alejandro Cacao, Goldex’s senior Guatemalan geologist and Steven Park, a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101. These sectors lie roughly 1-2 km north and northeast of the principal zones of El Pato within a similar geological environment, namely granodiorite host rock with epithermal banded quartz veins that contain pyrite and arsenopyrite. Veins are 0.15m to 1.5m in true thickness and trend northwest to north-northwest with low dip angles (20-35 degrees) to the northeast.

The samples taken show the presence of very high grade gold numbers as well as significant silver grades.  Out of the 58 samples taken, eight reported grades higher than 100 g/t Au with the highest value at 410 g/t Au. The sheer number of high grade samples suggests an exciting region for exploration that has Goldex geological teams already drawing up plans for next stage programs in the area including a diamond drill program.  Goldex will also continue exploration work on the principal sectors of the El Pato zone.

Goldex’s primary focus of recent exploration work has been on the principal zones of the El Pato area:  Cerrito, Cerrito West, El Roque and Agua Zarca.  Mr. Cacao had also taken reconnaissance rock chip samples in the Northern Zones during this time leading to the identification of several veins in the area.  Mr. Park conducted sampling of his own in the Northern Zones during October 2011 which verified Mr. Cacao’s previous sampling work.

Assays are listed in the table below; those marked with an ‘SP’ denote Mr. Park’s sampling while those marked with an ‘AC’ denote Mr. Cacao’s. The 58 samples taken include both float and outcrop rock chips of which six samples showed no significant results and are not listed. Float samples are denoted by a sample number ending with ‘F’.

All samples were submitted to Inspectorate labs in Guatemala for preparation and then sent to Reno, an ISO certified lab for assay. Samples were assayed by utilizing 30 gram fire assays with a gravimetric finish for gold and four acid digestion with atomic absorption finish for Silver. Grab samples are selective and may not be representative of mineralization on the property.

*Mr. Park did not sample in the El Pital area.
