Jaxon Minerals Inc. - Drilling to commence at Snow Lake

JAX-TSX.V

VANCOUVER, Nov. 14, 2012 /CNW/ - Jaxon Minerals Inc. (the "Company") is pleased to announce that it is commencing a diamond drilling program at its Snow Lake Project located in central Manitoba. The project is located 9 kilometers South-East of Reed Lake where the important new Reed Copper VMS deposit is now being developed by Hudbay Minerals Inc. and VMS Ventures Inc. (see VMS press release dated August 14, 2012). The Reed discovery under Paleozoic cover rocks used the correlation of VTEM and magnetic airborne anomalies to target drilling for sulphide mineralization.

In November of 2011, searching for VMS style deposits, the Company completed a VTEM-MAG helicopter airborne geophysical survey over its Snow Lake property which identified priority drill-ready targets under Paleozoics. To test these coincident magnetic and VTEM conductivity targets an approximate 1,500 meter diamond drill program will be completed before the end of December 2012. The fully permitted Snow Lake Project is located 5 kilometers from Provincial Highway 39, is close to the CNR railway and has trail access.

The Company also announces that it has permitted and is planning a diamond drill program on its Beatty Lake, Saskatchewan project early in the new year. Surface mineralized samples contain typical VMS grades of Copper, Gold, Silver and Zinc that are mined in the district. The Company's airborne geophysical VTEM-MAG survey completed in November of 2011 identified anomalous conductive-magnetic trends and data modeling indicates several drill-ready targets.

The Flin Flon-Snow Lake VMS District has well-developed infrastructure and is a significant contributor of base and precious metals to Canadian production. It is known globally as a high value per tonne Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide (VMS) mining district.

All technical content in the foregoing disclosure has been verified and approved by Glen C. Macdonald, P.Geo. (a qualified person for the purpose of National Instrument 43-101, Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects).
