Canamex Drilling Intersects More Gold at Northeast End of Historic Resource Area at Bruner Gold Project, Nevada
Vancouver, BC November 3, 2014/ Canamex Resources Corp. (the "Company") (TSX-V:CSQ.V ) (OTCQX:CNMXF ) (FSE:CX6.F ) is pleased to announce ongoing results from reverse circulation (RC) drilling at the Bruner Gold Project located in Nye County, Nevada.
RC Drilling Northeast End of Historic Resource Area
Reverse circulation ("RC") drilling at the northeast end of the historic resource area has intersected gold mineralization near the surface. Of particular interest is a shallow high-grade intercept in hole B-1444 which intersected 1.5 metres from 6.1-7.6 metres grading 14.4 g/tonne Au, which upon re-assaying from a larger (1000 gm) pulp returned 29 g/tonne Au. This suggests there is particulate gold in this intercept.
This interval occurs at the bottom of the casing and the beginning of sampling. Further down, the hole intersected a thick lower grade interval from 36.8-77.7 metres grading 0.477 gpt Au. B-1444 is the northernmost hole of the drill pattern and the gold mineralization encountered in the hole is open to the north. We have moved the core drill to the adjacent drill site located about 30 metres to the north of the intercept in B-1444, and which is set back a few metres, to see if we can intersect the entire high-grade interval in a fence of holes.
Nearby RC hole B-1442 cut a thick low grade interval from 7.6-62.5 metres grading 0.446 g/tonne Au. Other drill hole intercepts at the northeast end of the historic resource area are reported in the table below.
Drill hole samples are stored on site and are retrieved by ALS Minerals personnel or an independent contractor and transported in their custody to the ALS Minerals laboratory in Reno/Sparks, Nevada, where they were photographed, sawed, sampled, and analyzed by ALS Minerals laboratory for gold and silver. Duplicates, blanks, and standards were inserted at regular intervals for QA/QC purposes. All drill samples are prepared by crushing the entire sample to 70% passing 2mm size, splitting out 250 grams of sample and pulverizing this split to 85% passing -75 microns in size. From the 250 gram pulp 30 grams is split out for fusion and fire assay with an AA finish. If results return 3 g/tonne Au or greater, the lab performs a 30 gram fire assay with a gravimetric finish from the same pulp. In addition, a second sample is prepared by crushing the sample down to 90% passing 10 mesh and proceeding to a rotary split of 1 kg that is pulverized to 85% passing 200 mesh. From the 1 kilogram pulp 30 grams is split out for a second fire assay with gravimetric finish.

* The historic resource area refers to an area on the Bruner property that was the subject of a historical resource estimate reported on the property in a press release by Miramar Mining Corporation in 1993 and is not in compliance with NI 43-101 standards. The historical resource estimate was done by industry professionals in accordance with standard industry practices prevalent at the time, and is believe to be reliable, but with no assurances as to how much of the resource would qualify as measured, indicated, or inferred under current industry reporting standards. A qualified person (within the meaning of NI 43-101) has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current mineral resource or mineral reserves, and the Company is not treating the historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves. The historical estimate is relevant solely for purposes of directing target areas for the Company's current exploration program.
