Ag Eq is Silver Equivalent of gold plus silver and based upon a price ratio
of 50:1 gold to silver. True widths are estimated to be 85 to 90% of the   
drilled intersection length.                                               



"The trenching program was undertaken principally to extend the areas of known
near-surface mineralisation at Pinguino. In addition to providing better
continuation to the high grade zone at Tranquilo, the trenches have extended and
confirmed the presence of good medium to high grade gold mineralisation at
surface in the more easterly veins at Savary and the CSS-CSV group, which is a
very encouraging outcome," commented Michael Brown, President and CEO of
Argentex. "As we now have complete results from the trenching, the revised
geological interpretation can be completed in preparation for an upgraded
mineral resource."


The trenching plays an important role in characterising remnant mineralisation
in the oxidized zone at Pinguino. The low silver grade in the trenches is
generally not correlated to grade at depth. This is typical for leached
material. However, higher grade mineralisation in the trenches is strongly
correlated to the presence of supergene enriched, high grade silver zones.


About Pinguino

Argentex's 10,000-hectare advanced silver and gold exploration Pinguino project
is located in Argentina's Patagonia region, within the Deseado Massif of Santa
Cruz province. The Deseado Massif is an active region of mining with four
precious metal mines currently in production, and includes multiple active
advanced and early stage exploration projects.


The Pinguino system has grown to 70+ individual veins, with a combined strike
length approaching approx. 113 line-kilometers. The Pinguino project is unique
within the Deseado Massif region of Santa Cruz province in that it contains two
different and spatially distinct types of mineralisation; a precious metal
intermediate sulphidation epithermal system and a polymetallic sulphide-rich
system.


Pinguino is easily accessible, situated approximately 400 meters above sea level
in low-relief topography. An existing system of all-weather roads provides
year-round access to the property.

Quality Assurance

Samples selected for analysis are sent to Acme Analytical Laboratories' sample
preparation lab in Mendoza, Argentina. From there, sample pulps are sent to its
laboratory in Vancouver, Canada for multi-element ICP-MS analysis (1DX
procedure). Samples overlimit in silver, lead, zinc, and/or copper are
reanalysed by a high detection limit ICP-ES analysis (7AR procedure). Samples
overlimit in silver from that procedure and gold results greater than 300 ppb
are rerun by fire assay (G6 procedure). Acme Analytical Laboratories is an ISO
9000:2001 accredited full-service commercial laboratory, with its head office
located in Vancouver.

anticipated due to a number of factors beyond the Company's control. These risks
and uncertainties include, among other things, management's assumptions about

in Argentex's operations, including the risks that the Company may not find any
minerals in commercially feasible quantity or raise enough money to fund its
exploration plans. These and other risks are described in the Company's Annual
