Liberty Mines will acquire a 100% interest in the Snow Lake project through the acquisition of QMX Gold's wholly-owned subsidiary, in consideration for a cash payment of US$20,000,000 to QMX Gold.

The remaining purchase price of US$19,000,000 shall be paid upon closing of the transaction, which is expected to occur on or before November 25, 2013.

Under the terms of the agreement, Liberty Mines can elect to extend the closing of the transaction is extended until January 14, 2013, upon which Liberty Mines will pay QMX Gold a extension fee of $100,000. Closing of the acquisition remains subject to Liberty Mines completing its satisfactory due diligence review of the project, entering into the definitive purchase agreement, receiving all necessary government and regulatory approvals in Canada and China and Liberty Mines securing the financing necessary to complete the acquisition.

QMX Gold will use the proceeds of the sale to pay its existing debt obligation to Third Eye Capital and for general working capital purposes. Management and the Board of Directors of QMX Gold believe this transaction is in the best interest of the Company as it is expected to improve the cash and working capital positions of the company as it continues to navigate through a turbulent market.

QMX Gold acquired the Snow Lake gold project from the previous operator, Garson Gold, through a share acquisition bid which closed January 2010. The Snow Lake mine is a past producer in a prolific gold/copper belt in northern Manitoba.

Liberty Mines is a Canadian-owned nickel exploration company which owns two former producing nickel mines and nickel production facilities in the Timmins, Ontario area.

Effective immediately, Mr. Francois Perron steps down as President and Chief Executive Officer and a director of QMX Gold and will be replaced by Brett New. Mr. New has been a special consultant to the Company since 2011 and his prior experience includes over 15 years in various corporate development, banking and portfolio management roles in the mining & commodities sector. Management and the board of directors of the Company wish to extend their gratitude to Mr. Perron for his leadership during a period of significant changes at QMX Gold. The Company wishes him success in his future endeavors.

Commenting on the transaction Mr. New said: "This was a difficult decision for management and the Board to make as we remained committed to the Snow Lake project through difficult market conditions and we remain convinced of the project's potential. However, this transaction leaves the Company in a much stronger financial position and we will continue to pursue custom milling and other strategic opportunities in Quebec."
