Temex Discovers Widespread Surface Gold Mineralization up to 8.26
g/t Gold on Juby JV Property Northeastern Ontario
=======================================================================
November 24, 2011 (TORONTO, ONTARIO): Temex Resources Corp.
(TSX-V:
TME, FWB: TQ1) ("Temex" or "the Company") reports that prospecting has
discovered several new surface gold zones on its Juby Joint Venture
("JV") Property located near Gowganda in northeastern Ontario.
These
new zones occur approximately 1.5 kilometres southwest of the Juby Main
Zone and appear to represent an important parallel structural trend to
the main Tyrrell Structural Zone upon which the majority of the major
gold occurrences in the area are centered.
A program of B horizon soil sampling conducted in August delineated a
strong gold-in-soil anomalous zone with individual samples returning
values ranging from 28 ppb gold to 1,747 ppb gold (1.7 g/t gold).
The
anomalous samples define a trend with a minimum strike length of 1.5
kilometres and width of 0.5 kilometres in an area that has received
virtually no exploration to date.
These are by far the strongest gold
in soil anomalies detected to date on both the Juby and Juby JV
properties.
"We are very pleased with the success of this grass roots exploration
program with the addition of several new high priority targets for
drill testing.
The discovery of gold mineralization in this area to the
south of the Juby Main Zone opens up new potential for our extensive
land package," commented Ian Campbell, President and CEO of Temex.
Follow-up prospecting across the gold-in-soil anomalous trend has
discovered several gold-in-bedrock occurrences over an area
approximately 250 metres long by 50 metres wide with individual grab
samples assaying 0.59 g/t gold up to 8.26 g/t gold.
Significantly, the
gold mineralization is hosted in highly altered feldspar porphyry and
sedimentary rocks that exhibit iron carbonate alteration and minor
amounts of pyrite similar to the Juby Main Zone.
Although near the
limits of a Spectral Induced Polarization survey conducted earlier in
2011, the anomalous gold in soil and bedrock zone occurs along the
margin of a moderate chargeability and resistivity anomaly with an area
of low chargeability and resistivity.
As field conditions permit, additional prospecting will be done to
follow-up on the new gold zones prior to diamond drill testing.

at the Juby Gold Project (Note 1) with an updated resource estimate
planned for fall 2011.
The Juby Main Zone has a resource of 14.1
million tonnes at a grade of 1.36 g/t gold for 614,000 ounces of gold
in the Indicated category and 18.3 million tonnes at a grade of 1.14
g/t gold for 602,000 ounces of gold in the Inferred category, both at a
cut-off grade of 0.50 g/t gold.
Temex also has a NI 43-101 compliant
resource for tailings material on its Gowganda Silver Project (Note 2).
The tailings piles contain a resource of 1.94 million tonnes grading
47.5 g/t silver for a contained resource of 2.96 million ounces of
silver in the Indicated category.
