Mingeo Project Highlights
The deposit lies within the carbonate rocks of the Mural or Morita Formation Cretaceous siltstones and Paleozoic carbonate sedimentary rocks of the Sonoran Bisbee-Cananea rift basin.
One of the main mineralized structures consists of a low angle dipping quartz epithermal vein/manto with approximately 15? to 20? dip to the NE and a thickness that ranges from 0.50 to approximately 3 metres. Mineralization has been observed to comprise medium grained disseminated pyrite, arsenopyrite, minor chalcopyrite and rare galena. Gangue minerals include quartz, calcite, and barite. Gold and silver values are believed to be associated with arsenopyrite, chalcopyrite and pyrite.
At this time two quartz vein/manto structures have been identified above and more below the main mineralized structure, but these other structures are yet to be explored in more detail. Several of these structures have been observed to continue along strike between 500 to approximately 1000 meters and show small old workings in the form of pits or adits. The vein/mantos are hosted within altered shales that in places may be highly fractured and/or may exhibit quartz stockwork veinlets and occasionally may have stains of copper carbonates.
Preliminary Metallurgical testing of seven samples of the quartz vein/manto material was carried out in 2013 by Kappes, Cassiday and Associates (KCA, Reno, NV) and their report indicated yields up to 96% gold recovery and 69% silver recovery using cyanide shake tests. Gravimetric tests were not carried out on the samples submitted at that time.
Information relating to the Mingeo Project provided within this news release is based upon reports from the concession owner, Kappes Cassiday and Associates and numerous reports on the area available through internet sources. These reports are not NI43-101 documents. During Goldex's due diligence period, the Company has retained a Qualified Person (QP), as defined under NI43-101, to visit and evaluate the property and take samples from the quartz vein/manto and other structures, also to verify the information within this news release.

Victor A. Jaramillo, M. Sc. (A), P. Geo., a Qualified Person under National Instrument 43-101, and independent from the Company has prepared, supervised the preparation of, or approved the technical content of this press release. Mr. Jaramillo has more than 25 years of experience in exploration and evaluation of precious metal and copper deposits.
