Junex Tests 180 Barrels of Oil per Day at its Galt No. 3 Well

Junex Inc. (TSX VENTURE:JNX) ("Junex" or the "Company") is pleased to announce
that it has recovered 180 barrels of oil over a 24-hour period (or an "initial
rate" of 180 barrels of oil per day) from a production test at its Galt No. 3
well. This well is on Junex's Galt Oil Property that is situated approximately
20 kilometers from the town of Gaspe in eastern Quebec. 


Mr. Peter Dorrins, Junex's President & Chief Executive Officer, remarked: "The
Galt No. 3 vertical well was tested to harvest more information about the
Forillon reservoir as part of finalizing the test design for the upcoming Junex
Galt No. 4 Horizontal well. While not being a stabilized rate that would
typically be much lower, we believe that this initial production rate in our
Galt No. 3 well, which has been shut-in since 2011, nonetheless provides an
indication as to the potential of the naturally-fractured Forillon reservoir on
our Galt Oil Property." 


Mr. Dorrins continued: "It is of note that the Galt No. 4 Horizontal well is
designed to intersect a larger number of open, near-vertical fractures than the
number of fractures encountered in the Galt No. 3 vertical well. Geological data
indicates that the oil is produced from the natural fractures and we are hopeful
that an increased number of open fractures, if encountered during drilling,
could translate into a higher production rate in the Galt No. 4 Horizontal well.
We foresee starting drilling operations at this location in the coming weeks."


The Junex Galt No. 4 Horizontal well, the first in a series of horizontal wells
planned for the next phase of the project, will be drilled from the existing
Junex Galt No. 4 vertical wellbore towards the Galt No. 3 well in the Forillon
Formation. 


Originally drilled in 2003, the Galt No. 3 vertical well is located on the same
structure as and approximately 2.5 kilometers from the Junex Galt No. 4 vertical
well. The Junex Galt No. 4 vertical well, drilled in 2012, confirmed the
presence of a 997 meter-thick oil column in the combined Forillon and Indian
Point formations (see September 25, 2012 press release), the impact of which was
a 27% increase in the total Oil Initially-in-Place ("OIIP") resource volumes for
the Galt Oil Property (see March 27, 2013 press release). 


Junex holds 70% interest in the 16,645 acre-sized Galt Oil Property and 100%
interest in the 36,816 acre-sized permit adjacent to the Galt Oil Property. The
adjacent 100% Junex acreage has not yet been independently evaluated for its
resource potential. 


Netherland, Sewell & Associates, Inc., ("NSAI"), a firm of worldwide petroleum
consultants based in Texas, has previously established their Best Estimate of
the total OIIP resources for the Forillon and Indian Point formations on Junex's
Galt Oil Property at 330 million barrels that includes Discovered Contingent
OIIP volumes of 36 million barrels and Undiscovered Prospective OIIP volumes of
294 million barrels (see press release from March 27, 2013 for details of the
NSAI report).
