Amex Reports 30.90m of 11.57g/t Au from Eastern Denise Expansion Zone and 10.10m of 3.71g/t Au from the E2 Gold Zone

Amex Exploration Inc. (TSXV: AMX) (FSE: MX0) (OTCQX: AMXEF) ("Amex or the Company") is pleased to announce a total of 9 drill holes focused on near surface and on-strike expansion as well as definition drilling of the Denise Zone ("Denise"), part of the Eastern Gold Zone ("EGZ"), of the Perron Project. In addition, the Company is also pleased to report 11 drills holes from the newly discovered E2 Gold Zone ("E2"). See Figure 1 for a plan view of the geology of the EGZ. In addition, Amex would like to remind shareholders of its Annual General Meeting and corporate update which is scheduled for Tuesday, May 10, 2022 at 10:00 AM Eastern time and will be made available via webcast in consideration of current Covid 19 Government guidelines.

Today's drill results demonstrate that tenure and grade of the eastern area of Denise is starting to replicate the western Denise Zone which has been well defined with diamond drilling. These results indicate the potential for higher grade shoots forming within the eastern Denise, similar to what has been defined in the western Denise. A complete list of results is available in Table 1 and presented in Figure 2.

The E2 Gold Zone has now been expanded down to a vertical depth of 370 m and along strike for 325 m. A complete list of results is available in Table 2 and presented in Figure 3.

Jacques Trottier, PhD, Executive Chairman of Amex Exploration commented, "Hole PE-22-510 recorded one of the best intersections that we have reported to date in the Denise Zone. We are now seeing very high grade individual samples within the broader panel of mineralized rhyolite that comprises Denise. We are continuing to drill and define this important target as we believe it has the potential to add significant ounces at Perron. In addition, we are beginning to understand the geometry and plunge of the E2 Gold Zone, which roughly parallels the High Grade Zone. The proximity of the E2 and HGZ, approximately 250 metres apart, should be very positive in a potential underground mining scenario as the ounce-per-vertical-metre count would increase significantly."

Trottier continued, "Amex management is very excited about these results and very much looks forward to the continuation of the current drilling phase and the start of the summer fieldwork season which will begin in the coming days. In addition to the ongoing drilling campaign, fieldwork this summer will consist of detailed geological mapping and stripping of exposed surfaces (i.e. outcrops) on a regional scale covering various areas of the property, as well as regional studies of rock geochemistry and bio-geochemistry."

Qualified Person

Maxime Bouchard P.Geo. M.Sc.A., (OGQ 1752) and Jérôme Augustin P.Geo. Ph.D., (OGQ 2134), Independent Qualified Persons as defined by Canadian NI 43-101 standards, have reviewed and approved the geological information reported in this news release. The drilling campaign and the quality control program have been planned and supervised by Maxime Bouchard and Jérôme Augustin. The quality assurance and quality control protocol include insertion of blank or standard every 10 samples on average, in addition to the regular insertion of blank, duplicate, and standard samples accredited by Laboratoire Expert during the analytical process. Gold values are estimated by fire assay with finish by atomic absorption and values over 3 ppm Au are reanalyzed by fire assay with finish by gravimetry by Laboratoire Expert Inc, Rouyn-Noranda. Samples containing visible gold mineralization are analyzed by metallic sieve. For additional quality assurance and quality control, all samples were crushed to 90% less than 2 mm prior to pulverization, in order to homogenize samples which may contain coarse gold. Core logging and sampling were completed by Laurentia Exploration.

Mines and Mills: An Investment Case for the Abitibi Gold Belt

The Abitibi Gold Belt has played a key role in Canada's rich mining heritage and continues to be a powerhouse in global gold production. Stretching from Wawa, Ontario to Val-d'Or, Québec, this geological marvel has been the cornerstone of Canadian gold mining for over a century.

Since its discovery, the Abitibi Gold Belt has yielded more than 190 million ounces of gold since 1901, cementing its status as one of the world's most prolific gold-producing regions. This impressive figure underscores the belt's enduring significance in the global gold market.

The belt's robust geological formations, known as greenstone belts, have supported numerous gold mines throughout its storied history. Events like the Porcupine Gold Rush of 1909 were pivotal in establishing key mining towns such as Timmins, which remain vital to the industry today. The Abitibi Gold Belt's ongoing relevance is underscored by the continuous exploration and production activities that persist, making it a focal point for investors seeking opportunities in the gold sector.

Ghana Expels Foreigners from Local Gold Market in Sweeping Sector Overhaul

As part of a sweeping policy shift aimed at tightening control over its most lucrative natural resource, Ghana has banned all foreigners from trading in its domestic gold market, BBC reported.

The directive, announced by the newly created Ghana Gold Board (GoldBod), forms part of the national government’s legislative overhaul to increase state revenues, curb illegal mining and regain regulatory control over the country’s booming artisanal and small-scale gold sector.

GoldBod was created as part of the Ghana Gold Board bill 2025, which was passed by parliament on March 29 and signed into law by President John Mahama on April 2. The act rendered all previously issued licenses invalid, except for licenses granted to large-scale mining companies.

“All foreigners are hereby notified to exit the local gold trading market not later than 30th April, 2025,” said GoldBod spokesperson Prince Kwame Minkah in a statement.
