Panex Resources Inc. (the "Company," or "Panex") is pleased to announce that it has received results for a further 20 holes drilled on its highly prospective Giro Gold Project. Results are from all holes drilled along Lines 1 and 2 in the eastern portion of the Giro Prospect as shown in Figure 1.

The Giro Project covers a surface area of 610sqkm and lies within the Kilo-Moto Belt in one of the world's principal greenstone belts which hosts Randgold Resources' multi-million ounce Kibali Gold deposits within 30km of Giro, Anglogold Ashanti's deposits to the east, Loncore and Kilogold deposits to the south and 50Moz of gold discovered in Tanzania since 1994.

Results were received for drill holes GRRC013 - 032 where GRRC013 - 016 were from Line 1 and GRRC017 - 032 from Line 2, as shown in Figure 1. All holes were stopped short of the planned 120m where excessive ground water prevented the return of a dry sample. Results are summarized in Table 1 and shown in long section in Figures 2 and 3.

The remaining four holes on line 1 reported 40m @ 2.11g/t Au from 6m in GRRC013, 34m @ 1.46g/t Au from 8m in GRRC014 and 8m @ 1.48g/t Au from 14m in GRRC016. This mineralisation remains open across the shear to the northeast where gold mineralisation has already been defined over more than 300m width.

On Line 2 the southwestern limit of the shear was intersected in drill hole GRRC022. Significant results included 23m @ 2.65g/t Au from 28m in GRRC023 including 11m @ 4.55g/t Au from 32m, 7m @ 14.99g/t Au from 12m in GRRC024, 20m @ 4.15g/t Au from 17m in GRRC030, and 12m @ 1.88g/t Au from 28m in GRRC032. Drilling on Line 2 has confirmed 200m of gold mineralisation across the shear which remains open to the northeast.

Dominant lithologies included saprolite with quartz stringers and veins and silicified volcano sediments and tuffs at depth. The bedrock commonly contained 1-3% pyrite, believed to be associated with gold mineralisation. The lateritic cap on line 2 has largely been mined by the Belgians and artisanal miners and was not observed in all holes.

The initial drilling program has been completed with 57 holes drilled for a total of 2,888m.

Drilling now suggests that gold mineralisation is from two separate mineralised structures, namely the Giro vein mined by the Belgians in the western portion of the Giro Prospect and the shear covered by Lines 1 and 2 in recent drilling. Current drilling and historic data suggests the Giro vein has a WNW-ESE trend whereas the eastern shear has a NNW trend. Visible gold was reported from one hole drilled to the east of the Giro vein, suggesting the mineralised structure continues east of the historically mined out area whereas the eastern shear is open along strike to the NW and SE and across the structure to the NE.

Final results from the remaining two lines drilled across the Giro vein to establish any wall rock potential and the grade of the vein mined by the Belgians are expected in early April 2014.

Reported results are highly encouraging suggesting the Giro Prospect has excellent potential to support sufficient gold mineralisation at open pittable depths. The Company is extremely pleased with the initial results which continue to confirm the potential of the project.

Panex is also pleased to announce the appointment of Mr Cong Mao Huai as Non-Executive Director to the board of Directors of Panex. Mr Huai brings with him significant experience with operating in the Democratic Republic of Congo and exposure to the Asian investment market.
