Oremex Gold Inc. ("Oremex Gold" or the "Company") (TSX
VENTURE:OAU)(FRANKFURT:OM8) is pleased to announce additional rock sampling
results from its 100% owned Cerro del Oro gold project, located in the Melchor
Ocampo mining district in northern Zacatecas State, Mexico. Furthermore,
rehabilitation of two underground workings to facilitate the commencement of an
underground drilling program is currently underway. 


"The additional sample results show significant levels of widespread
gold-dominant mineralization over considerable widths at the Cerro del Oro
project. Our ongoing detailed sampling program provides much better definition
of the mineralized zones and structures and consequently has expanded the area
of interest. The Company is planning and looking forward to commencing both
underground and surface drill programs in the near future" stated David Terry,
President and CEO. 


Analytical results for 440 surface and 20 underground rock chip samples have
been received (147 reported in Feb.23.12 news release). For the entire database,
gold averages 0.47 g/t (0.01 to 8.3 g/t); 266 samples were greater than 0.2 g/t
and 114 samples were greater than 0.5 g/t. Silver ranges from less than 2 g/t to
75.9 g/t, lead ranges from 4 g/t to 1.5% and zinc ranges from 6 g/t to 11.4%.
Additional analytical results from the ongoing work are expected shortly. 


The mineralized intrusive/skarn domain within the central portion of the
property was expanded from 450m by 300m (Feb.23.12 news release) to a 500m by
500m area as a result of the sampling reported herein. A second area of
intrusive-related mineralization (150m by 60m area) is located in the northwest
corner of the property. Numerous samples were collected in a series of
contiguous rock chip samples from hand trenches or road cuts.
