Temex Intersects 2.22 g/t Gold over 35.70 Metres, 10.15 g/t Gold over 3.30 Metres Near Surface at Hallnor Mine, Whitney Property, Timmins

TORONTO, Nov. 14, 2011 /CNW/ - Temex Resources Corp.

('Temex' or 'the Company') reports that near surface exploration drilling on the Upper Hallnor Mine area of the Whitney Property (the 'Property') intersected 2.22 g/t gold over 35.70 metres including 2.78 g/t gold over 15.80 metres and 10.15 g/t gold over 3.30 metres in hole TW11-163 at shallow depths.

Hole TW11-163 intersected several near surface quartz and quartz-carbonate stockwork zones 30 metres downhole, hosted within the footwall Timiskaming sediments near the unconformable contact with Tisdale volcanic rocks to the north of the Upper Hallnor Mine. This is the same contact zone that has seen significant production at Hallnor and from both underground and large open pit mining operations directly along strike and on the adjoining property to the east with the past producing Hoyle and Pamour Mines, comprising a 4 kilometre long corridor with past production of over 10 million ounces of gold.

The zones intersected in hole TW11-163 may represent the eastward extension of the 1-55 North and South Veins from which Temex has previously reported numerous high grade gold intersections.  Additional diamond drilling underway will test both the strike and down-dip extension to this broad zone of gold mineralization.

'These results demonstrate the excellent potential for us to define gold resources with both open pit and underground potential right in the centre of Canada's largest gold mining camp,' commented Ian Campbell, President and CEO.

The results reported today are from a 12,000 metre drill program initiated earlier this year which is testing priority targets in the upper areas of the Broulan Reef and Hallnor Mines as well as other high priority exploration targets on the Property.  Assays are pending on several other holes.

Drilling is ongoing with two rigs working on the Upper Hallnor property testing several targets with the primary objective being the delineation of National Instrument 43-101 compliant gold resources at the Hallnor 6 Vein area and the 1-55 North and South Veins.  This work is designed to follow up on the excellent results obtained during the first phase program.

The Property hosts three past producing mines including the high grade Hallnor Mine which produced 1.7 million ounces of gold at an average grade of 0.40 ounce per ton (13.7 g/t) gold.  Exploration is being conducted by the Company under the terms of a joint venture agreement between Temex (60%) and Goldcorp Canada Ltd. (40%).  During the option period prior to earn-in, the Company completed 88 drill holes for 20,574 metres.

The joint venture with Goldcorp was formed in June 2010, and during the first year of the agreement 84 drill holes totalling 22,302 metres were completed.  The current campaign has completed an additional 13 drill holes for 4,267 metres for an aggregate of $2.5 million in exploration expenditures.  The Company and Goldcorp recently approved a $1.5 million budget to commence immediately and it is anticipated that two rigs will be operating well into the new year for an aggregate of $4.0 million in exploration expenditures by the end of the second anniversary of the agreement.

Ian Campbell, P. Geo., President and CEO of the Company, is the designated 'qualified person' (within the meaning of National Instrument 43-101) responsible for the preparation of this news release.
