TORONTO, Feb. 24, 2015 /CNW/ - Temex Resources Corp. (TSX-V: TME, FWB: TQ1) ("Temex" or "the Company") is pleased to announce that it has received excellent metallurgical testwork results from the Whitney Gold Project in Timmins, Ontario; the work was conducted by SGS Canada Inc., Lakefield, Ontario (SGS). The historic and prolific Hallnor mine, the centerpiece of the Whitney Project, was the highest grade gold producer in the Timmins camp, having produced 1.7 M ounces of gold at 0.40 ounces (12.4 g) gold per tonne. Current NI 43-101 measured and indicated resources of the Whitney Property total 708,600 ounces contained in 3,219,000 tonnes grading 6.85 g/t gold and inferred resources of 170,700 ounces contained in 995,000 tonnes grading 5.34 g/t gold, at a cut-off grade of 3.0 g/t gold.
The testwork was conducted on a single composite sample, with a head grade of 6.59 g/t gold, comprised of 200 drill core samples collected from thirty-seven diamond drill holes, selected as representative of the overall high grade NI 43-101 resource. Preliminary metallurgical testwork done on low grade composite samples also achieved excellent gold recoveries ranging from 93% to 98% on head grades ranging between 0.94 to 2.32 g/t gold respectively (news release February 27, 2013).
Highlights:
"We are extremely pleased with the exceptional results of the detailed metallurgical testwork at Whitney reported today," commented Ian Campbell, President and CEO of Temex Resources Corp. "These results together with the preliminary work reported on in 2013 indicate that very high recoveries are achievable at both high and low head grades. Both series of tests achieved excellent gravity separation results indicating the presence of substantial free-milling gold, high cyanidation recoveries at fast reaction times and low reagent consumption, suggesting opportunities to lower milling costs."
Metallurgical testwork flowsheet results are summarized in the following table:

Outlook and Workplan
The metallurgical testwork results will be a key factor in securing a custom toll milling agreement, with several potential opportunities in the Timmins area. The Company plans to undertake an advanced exploration open pit bulk sample project focussed on the Upper Hallnor 110 Zone, as described in previous news releases. Environmental testwork to support an addendum to the existing closure plan, which is operated by Goldcorp, has been completed. It is anticipated that internal review of the work will be completed by the joint venture partners prior to submission to the intergovernmental agencies for final permitting approval.
The metallurgical testwork was supervised by Maziar E. Sauber, Ph.D., P.Eng., Project Manager – Metallurgist, Metallurgical Operations, SGS Canada Inc., Lakefield, Ontario, Canada. The technical information in this news release has been approved by David Hall P.Eng., President, Applied Mineral Research Inc., independent qualified person and consultant to Temex.
Kim Tyler, P.Geo., Operations Manager for Temex Resources Corp. is the designated qualified person responsible for the preparation of this news release.
