Corex Drills 23.9m of 1.65 g/t Au at Santana Property, Mexico

Marketwired
Corex Gold Corp. (the "Company") is pleased to report continued
exploration success achieved through the on-going 20,000 meter 2011
drill program on its Santana Property, Sonora State, Mexico.
Results from the latest six drill holes significantly expand the
outline of the known mineralization at Nicho towards Ubaldo and
indicate that much of the mineralization in this zone begins at or
near surface and extends to vertical depths of up to 400 m. These
new holes which have encountered significant mineralization are as
follows;
Drill Highlights Include:
-- S11-103D 23.9 m of 1.65 g/t Au
-- S11-104D 20.4 m of 1.11 g/t Au, incl. 7.2 m of 2.58 g/t Au
-- S11-108 65.8 m at 0.43 g/t Au and 9.88 g/t Ag and 0.33 % Cu incl. 10.2 m
of 0.53 g/t Au, 28.2 g/t Ag and 0.9 % Cu
Drill Results Overview:
Drilling at Ubaldo has expanded the outline of this significant
new gold and copper zone, to an area of one km2 and remains open in
several directions, specifically at depth and to the northeast
where gold grades and widths appear to be increasing. The holes
confirm a higher grade component to a very robust mineralized
system. Holes S11-103D, S11-104 D are of particular importance as
they have confirmed the occurrence of high grade shoots in
proximity of the surface. It is important to note that the Nicho
Zone is only one of numerous drill targets on the property.
Hole S11-108 is located 25 m NE of previously reported hole
S10-078R, which intersected 54.9 m of 0.9 g/t Au, 21.8 g/t Ag and
0.51 % Cu. This most recent Ubaldo hole is significant as it again
intersected a thick chargeability high target which was outlined
and refined in the Company's most recent 3D IP program. This method
of target delineation has proven extremely successful in building
out the Santana Property to date.

True widths are estimated to be about 90% of the drill
intersections. Surface exploration shows similar alteration and
mineralization occurring in outcrops over a 10 sq km area to depth
of 400 m.
Corex views these results positively as exploration drilling
continues to expand the size of the Nicho and Ubaldo trend. Given
the extent of the mineralization and the initial positive
geo-metallurgy, Santana has the signatures to develop into a
significant deposit.

Reported intervals must be at least 1.0 meters wide; drill hole intercepts
are reported at a 0.21 g/t Au cutoff or a 0.4 g/t Au cutoff. Intervals
contain no more than six low-grade to barren samples between mineralized
samples containing over 0.2 g/t Au or intervals contain no more than two
low-grade to barren samples between mineralized samples containing over
0.4 g/t Au.
Corex utilizes a comprehensive QA/QC program consisting of blanks, drill
rig sample duplicates and reference samples to ensure best practices are
followed and the data collected is of the highest quality. All samples were
prepared to normal industry standards and assayed for gold by Fire assay
with AA finish by Acme Industrial Company (ISO 9001:2008 registered quality
system). Intercepts are close to true thickness.
