Canamex Reports Core Drilling Progress at Bruner Gold Project, Nye
County, Nevada
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Apr 7, 2014) -
Canamex Resources Corp. (the "Company")
(TSX-VENTURE:CSQ)(OTCQX:CNMXF)(FRANKFURT:CX6) announces further to
its News Release of March 7, 2014 that diamond drilling of five
planned core holes in the historic resource area* of the Bruner
Gold Project, Nye County, Nevada is proceeding as planned. The five
core holes are planned to test the high-grade "feeder zone"
identified in drill hole B-1340, the last reverse circulation
("RC") hole drilled in 2013 (see Canamex News Release dated
November 5, 2013).
Results to Date
The first core hole
of the 2014 exploration season (B-1401C) was designed to go beneath
the trace and mineralized intersection of hole B-1340. Hole B-1401C
intersected only weak mineralization grading 0.018 opt (0.628 gpt)
gold between 266-311 feet (81 -95 metres), and would appear to be
outside of the "footwall" of the main gold bearing zone hosted in
fragmental rocks. Fragmental rocks were not present in hole
B-1401C, suggesting the hole is outside of the mineralized zone.
Down hole surveying reveals the two holes are roughly 25-30 feet
(8-9 metres) apart. The proximity of these two holes with
dramatically different results exemplifies how sharp the contact
can be between mineralized and non-mineralized rock at Bruner which
is similar to the Rawhide Mine, which we believe is a geological
analog to Bruner. The Rawhide Mine is 30 miles to the west of
Bruner and was mined by Kennecott between the late 1980s and the
early 2000s, and produced 1.6 million ounces of gold.
A second core hole
(B-1402C) was collared from the same site as hole B-1401C, but on a
different orientation to intersect the mineralized zone at a higher
level. Now complete, B-1402C intersected fragmental rocks of
various types, and silicification and moderate to strong iron
staining from roughly 100 feet to 350 feet (33- 107 metres) depth,
and holds promise for being a better gold bearing intercept than
was encountered in hole B-1401C.
A third core hole
(B-1403C) is now being drilled from the same location and on the
same azimuth but at a shallower angle than B-1402C, with the intent
to intersect the mineralized system on the same section but above
the trace of hole B-1402C.
Next Steps
Two more core holes
are planned for the historic resource area, and then it is
anticipated the core rig will be moved one mile away to the
discovery area at Penelas East. The Company expects a RC rig will
arrive on site mid-April to commence further exploration drilling.
The Company believes it will be in a position to report the assay
results of B-1402C and B-1403C by the end of April or early May,
depending upon laboratory turnaround times. Reporting of all assay
results will attempt to place the results in an appropriate
geological context.
President and COO
Greg Hahn Comments
"We are still trying
to understand the geometry and gold distribution of the high-grade
feeder zone of the historic resource area that we encountered in
our first hole into the target (B-1340) drilled late in 2013.
Clearly we have further work to define the high-grade feeder zone
and its dimensions and limits, but I am confident the drilling
program designed for the first half of 2014 will succeed in
characterizing the geometry, orientation, and grade of this portion
of the historic resource area," stated Greg Hahn, President and
COO.
Quality Control
Drill samples are
stored in a locked storage facility on site and are either
retrieved by ALS Minerals personnel or an independent contractor
and transported in their custody to the ALS Minerals laboratory in
Reno/Sparks, Nevada, where they were photographed, sawed, sampled,
and analyzed by ALS Minerals laboratory. Duplicates, blanks, and
standards were inserted at regular intervals for QA/QC
purposes.
Greg Hahn, President
and COO and a Certified Professional Geologist (#7122) is the
Qualified Person under NI43-101 responsible for preparing and
reviewing the data contained in this press release.
* The historic
resource area refers to an area on the Bruner property that was the
subject of a historical resource estimate reported on the property
not in compliance with NI 43- 101 standards. A qualified person
(within the meaning of NI 43-101) has not done sufficient work to
classify the historical estimate as current mineral resource or
mineral reserves, and the Company is not treating the historical
estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves. The
historical estimate is relevant solely for purposes of directing
target areas for the Company's current exploration programs.

statements other than statements of historical fact included in
this release are forward-looking statements that involve various
risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements in this news
release include statements in relation to the timing, cost and
other aspects of the planned 2014 drilling program on the Bruner
property; the potential for establishing a NI 43-101 mineral
resource estimate; the potential mineralization and geological
merits of the Bruner property; and other future plans, objectives
or expectations of the Company. There can be no assurance that such
statements will prove to be accurate and actual results and future
events could differ materially from those anticipated in such
statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially from the Company's plans or expectations include
the risk that actual results of current and planned exploration
activities, including the results of the Company's planned 2014
drilling program(s) on the Bruner property, will not be consistent
with the Company's expectations; the geology, grade and continuity
of any mineral deposits and the risk of unexpected variations in
mineral resources, grade and/or recovery rates; fluctuating metals
prices; possibility of accidents, equipment breakdowns and delays
during exploration; exploration cost overruns or unanticipated
costs and expenses; uncertainties involved in the interpretation of
drilling results and geological tests; availability of capital and
financing required to continue the Company's future exploration
programs and preparation of geological reports and studies; delays
in the preparation of geological reports and studies; the
metallurgical characteristics of mineralization contained within
the Bruner property are yet to be fully determined; general
economic, market or business conditions; competition and loss of
key employees; regulatory changes and restrictions including in
relation to required permits for exploration activities (including
drilling permits) and environmental liability; timeliness of

programs will proceed as planned and within budget. The Company
