Canamex Announces Further Positive Drill Results and Plans to Test High Grade Structure at the Bruner Gold Project, Nye County, Nevada
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired) -- 06/07/13 -- Canamex Resources Corp. (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE: CSQ)(OTCQX: CNMXF)(FRANKFURT: CX6) is pleased to announce positive assay results from five reverse circulation drill holes (B-1303 to B-1307) completed on drill pad number two (Section 480mN) at the Penelas East discovery area on the Bruner gold project, Nye County, Nevada. Drill pad number two is located 80 meters north of drill pad number one (Section 400mN) where holes B-1301 and B-1302 were drilled (see news release April 23, 2013).
"We are encouraged by these results," stated President and COO Greg Hahn. "All five holes are mineralized and could be accessible by open pit. These holes were all drilled and completed before results were received from drill hole B- 1301. Importantly, a three dimensional analysis of the high grade intercepts encountered in discovery hole B-1201 (see news release dated July 18, 2012) and B-1301 suggest the +110 gpt Au intercepts (+3 opt ) are contained in a steep- eastward dipping structure which was not penetrated by drill holes B-1303 to B-1307."

All other intervals contained less than 0.01 opt Au (0.34 gpt).
Project geologists have not determined the attitude of all of the mineralized intercepts and therefore cannot determine the true width of any of the reported intercepts at this time.
Drilling on the Northern Extension to the Historic Resource Area
Since completion of drill holes B-1303 through B-1307, the results for which are reported here, the drill rig has been drilling on the northern extension to the historic resource area. Six holes on two sections have been completed. Results from these holes will be announced as they are received and analyzed, and are expected to be released on a section-by- section basis going forward. The Company plans to drill one more section at the northern extension to the historic resource area and then return to the Penelas East discovery area.
New Penelas East Drill Program to Test High Grade Intercepts
As stated by Greg Hahn, a three dimensional analysis of the high grade intercepts encountered in holes B-1201 and B- 1301 suggest the +110 gpt Au ( +3 opt) intercepts are contained in a steep-eastward dipping structure which was not penetrated by the holes drilled from drill pad number two and reported here. Therefore, a new pad has been constructed on section 540mN, from where an historic hole drilled by Newmont Mining Corporation (BRU-085) intersected 95 feet grading 0.057 opt Au, including 5 feet grading 0.602 opt Au, which is believed to be the upper extension of the high grade structure encountered in B-1201 and B-1301. Once the third section is completed in the northern extension to the historical resource, the Company plans to move the rig back to the new pad (drill pad number three) at the Penelas East discovery area to drill test the open extensions to the high grade zone encountered in holes B- 1201 and B-1301. This phase of drilling should commence mid-June.
Quality Control
Drill samples are stored on a locked storage facility on site and were retrieved by ALS-Chemex personnel, transported in their custody to the ALS-Chemex laboratory in Reno/Sparks, Nevada, where they were dried, crushed, and split, and representative splits sent to the ALS-Chemex laboratory in Vancouver for gold and silver analyses. 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.
