Orex Exploration Inc.: Update on NI 43-101-Compliant Technical Report

OREX EXPLORATION INC. (TSX VENTURE:OX)(FRANKFURT:O5D) would like to provide
shareholders with an update on the National Instrument 43-101 Mineral Resource
Estimate that is currently being done by Mercator Geological Services of
Dartmouth, Nova Scotia.


Mercator has completed a validation of all of the recent drilling from 2010 and
2011, as well as all previous drilling, and is developing a new geological model
of the Company's wholly-owned Goldboro Gold Property in Nova Scotia. Orex will
provide shareholders with additional information on the NI 43-101 Technical
Report as it becomes available.


This new geological model, which will contain all available technical
information on the Goldboro Gold Property, will enable Orex and its technical
advisors to better plan target areas for a bulk sample on this property. As
indicated previously, subsequent to the completion of the updated NI 43-101
Technical Report, the Company also intends to conduct a Preliminary Economic
Assessment, which will examine the economic feasibility of a production scenario
at Goldboro.
