Exploration and Expansion Drilling Is Underway at the Gold Range Project, Arizona

Canex Metals Inc. ("CANEX" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that a reverse circulation drill program is underway at the Gold Range Project, Arizona. Three holes have been completed at the Excelsior Zone and a fourth is in progress. The Company plans to drill up to 50 holes during the current drilling program

Dr. Shane Ebert, President of the Company stated, "We are very pleased to have started our third drill program at Gold Range and are excited to follow up our recent bulk tonnage discoveries and work to expand the zones and further test the underexplored mineralized trend that hosts mineralization. With continued success this program could provide a solid foundation for a larger resource definition program".

Drill Program

The current reverse circulation drill program will consist of up to 50 drill holes and a minimum of 3000 metres of drilling. The program will initially focus on expanding high grade near surface mineralization identified at the Excelsior Zone before expanding outward along the 3 kilometre long mineralized trend linking the historical Excelsior, Malco, and Eldorado Mines. The Excelsior Zone was first drill tested by the Company in February of this year and returned very strong grades such as 1.6 g/t gold over 35.1 metres including 2.2 g/t gold over 24.4 metres (previously released see June 14, 2021 news release). The program will also look to expand mineralization at the Eldorado and Malco zones and test multiple areas along the known trend. A few holes are planned to test larger targets in the central and northern part of the claim block. The drill program is expected to run into late October with assay results released in several batches as they become available.

The main exploration targets at Gold Range are near surface bulk tonnage gold zones hosted in metamorphic rocks and cretaceous intrusive dikes. Mineralization contains disseminated stockwork style quartz veinlets surrounding high grade gold veins. Free gold has been observed within high grade veins and within stockwork veinlets. Eight bottle roll samples from across the system achieved final cyanide soluble gold recoveries ranging from 94 to 99%, averaging 97% (previously released see September 8, 2021 news release). These exceptional cyanide soluble recoveries confirm the project as a valid heap leach type target. Numerous heap leach style mining operations are currently active in the Western United States and Northern Mexico, and these deposit types are sought after by mining companies as they are low cost to build and can be operated highly profitably at very low average gold grades.

About Canex Metals

Canex Metals (TSXV:CANX) is a Canadian junior exploration company focused on advancing its Gold Range Project in Northern Arizona. Led by an experienced management team, which has made three notable porphyry and bulk tonnage discoveries in North America, CANEX has identified and tested several targets which host the potential for bulk tonnage oxide gold mineralization at its Gold Range Project. Recent drilling has identified near surface bulk tonnage gold potential along a recently identified trend extending from the Eldorado to Excelsior Zones. Hole GR21-37 from Excelsior returned 1.6 g/t gold over 35.1 metres including 8.2 g/t gold over 4.6 metres. These new discoveries occur along a 3 kilometre long highly prospective mineralized trend that has seen limited modern exploration.

The Company remains focused on testing and advancing key exploration targets on the Gold Range Property through continued exploration and drilling.

Top 5 Australian Mining Stocks This Week: Yandal Shares Double on Arrakis Drilling Results

Welcome to the Investing News Network's weekly round-up of Australia’s top-performing mining stocks on the ASX, starting with news in Australia's resource sector.

This week's top-performing stocks list is dominated by oil and gas companies, alongside gold and lithium companies.

In Australian mining news, the Fair Work Commission ruled that BHP (ASX:BHP,NYSE:BHP,LSE:BHP) must raise the wages of 2,200 workers at three coal mines in Queensland. The workers in question were employed indirectly through a hiring firm and were being paid significantly less than their peers working directly under BHP.

The case was brought by two worker's unions and based on the Same Job, Same Pay reforms made by the government last year. To align wages, the FWC ruled BHP must raise the labour hire employees' wages by AU$30,000 each.

Pilbara 2.0: Inside Australia’s Newest Gold Frontier

The Central Pilbara region of Western Australia is undergoing a quiet revolution that is rapidly reshaping the global gold exploration landscape.

Once dismissed as a technically challenging and geologically inconsistent terrain, Pilbara is now emerging as one of the world’s most exciting new gold frontiers and drawing serious attention from institutional investors, driven by transformative discoveries, a maturing geological model and a wave of junior explorers tapping into underexplored intrusive-hosted systems.

Anchored by the multimillion-ounce Hemi discovery — one of the most significant gold finds in Australia in over a decade — this region is not just proving its geological potential, but also demonstrating the kind of scale, consistency and margin profile that modern gold investors seek. As the discovery window remains wide open and valuations are still accessible, the Central Pilbara presents a rare opportunity for early exposure to what may become one of Australia’s next tier-one gold districts.

Is Australia on the Brink of a New Mining Super Cycle?

Mining remains as a cornerstone of Australia’s GDP and export earnings, but current global challenges such as trade disputes and price changes may be straining its foundations.

A recent FocusEconomics report tackled Australia’s resource wealth, tracing from the gold rushes of the 1850s to the iron ore and coal booms of the 21st century.
