On behalf of the Board of Directors and Management, I would also like to welcome Ted to the Board of Directors as he will further strengthen the team with his business and financial background. Both of these appointments are strong catalysts as we transform Temex from a progressive junior explorer to being capable of taking projects through advanced exploration to production within an aggressive time frame," commented Ian Campbell, President and CEO of Temex.

"I am looking forward to working more closely with the Management as we move the high grade Whitney Gold Project through the permitting and development phase and into production in 2015," commented Mr. Marion, Executive Chairman of Temex Resources Corp.

He was most recently President, CEO and Director of AuRico Gold Inc. ("AuRico") where he built AuRico into one of the "Top 40 Mining Companies" (Canadian Mining Journal, August 2012). Under Mr. Marion's leadership, AuRico executed several transformational transactions which included the acquisition and development of AuRico's flagship Young-Davidson Mine, located 45 kilometres northeast of the Company's Juby Gold Project.

Mr. Marion is a senior corporate executive with extensive experience in all aspects of the mining sector, including corporate governance, executive leadership, strategic planning, operations, operating management, reserves and mine engineering. Over his career he has worked on a dozen international feasibility studies and has been on the team for the construction of nine mines. Of further importance to Temex, he led the team that successfully concluded impact and benefits agreements in the Temex project areas. Mr. Marion is also a director of Guyana Goldfields Inc. and Richmont Mines Inc.

Mr. Reeser is the owner and President of Celco, an importer and distributor of commercial food service equipment. Prior to acquiring Celco in 2001, he has acquired over 20 years' experience as a Chief Financial and senior officer of public companies in the metallurgical, aviation, and oil pipe line industries. His areas of expertise include international business, supply chain management, mergers and acquisitions, raising capital, and controllership. Mr. Reeser is the Chairman of the Audit and Risk Committee, and a member of the Compensation, Governance and Nominating Committee, and the Safety, Environmental, Technical and Reserve Committee of Jaguar Mining Inc. He also serves as a director and member of the Finance and Audit Committee and the Investment Committee of Bridgepoint Health. He holds an ICD.D from the Institute of Corporate Directors, and obtained his BA and MBA from York University, Toronto, Canada.

Concurrent with the appointments, Mr. Kim Tyler has been appointed Operations Manager of the Whitney Project in Timmins. Mr. Tyler has over 30 years of experience in open pit and underground mining operations, exploration and management principally on gold, base metals and industrial minerals commodities. From 1992 to1999 Mr. Tyler served as Chief Mine Geologist, Timmins Division for Royal Oak Mines Inc. where he managed operating and mine exploration geological staff supporting several open pits and three underground mines utilizing a variety of underground extraction methods. During this period, Mr. Tyler managed the underground exploration program on the Lower Hallnor Mine which included de-watering the main shaft and the initiation of underground drilling where several high grade intercepts were reported. Prior to that he was Chief Exploration Geologist for Royal Oak Exploration Corp. where his was responsible for generating and assessing North American exploration projects including the subsequently mined large Pamour open pit mine adjacent to the Company's Whitney Project.

In conjunction with the appointments, options to purchase an aggregate of 1,000,000 common shares of Temex Resources Corp. have been granted, with each such option exercisable at a price of $0.13 per common share for a period of 5 years from the date of grant.


2014 - 2015 Work Program

Temex is focused on the ongoing 2014 program at the Whitney Project in Timmins. This work program is designed to support permitting for the exploitation of the project via open pit and underground mining methods. The Whitney Gold Project contains the excellent combination of being in a premier location with excellent infrastructure, near surface high grade gold resources and anticipated low capital costs. These three attributes have given us the confidence to expeditiously move the project through the permitting stage. An amendment of the existing Closure Plan is underway and the project is targeted for approval for full production status by mid-2015.

Resource definition diamond drilling of the 110 Vein Zone along with geotechnical investigation into a proposed future surface and underground exploration development has been completed and is being incorporated into detailed engineering work on the advanced exploration mine development program. Environmental and permitting work is also well underway with geotechnical drilling of groundwater monitoring wells and soil investigations being completed in support of permitting requirements. Hydrological studies to evaluate the surface water regime are also in progress.

Metallurgical testwork conducted in 2013 on lower grade material concluded that cyanide leaching on whole ore at various grinds produced excellent gold leach recoveries ranging between 93% and 98%. Testwork on high grade material which is more representative of the targeted resources is currently underway.

Discussions for toll milling have been initiated with several interested parties in the immediate area. Regular meetings are ongoing with regulatory authorities and local stakeholders.

The project contains excellent upside for expansion of the current resource base in all areas of the 4 kilometre long mine trend with the vast majority to date being no deeper than 500 metres. Historic mine operations on the property have been to a 1500 metre depth and numerous areas contain high grade drill intersections that are wide open as are high grade mine operations which terminated at pre-existing property boundaries.

Kim Tyler, P.Geo. Operations Manager and Karen Rees, P.Geo., Vice President, Exploration of Temex Resources Corp., are the designated qualified persons responsible for the preparation of this news release.


On behalf of the Board of Directors,
