Hugh Wynne, CEO of SGX Resources Inc. (SXR:TSX-V) is pleased to report that exploration drilling from surface has been successful in extending, confirming and adding to the Timmins North (formerly known as Black Pearl) deposit. Drill hole # SGX-10-18 demonstrated both significant grade and width by intersecting 8.2 g/tonne (0.24 oz/ton) over 3.8 meters (12.5 ft) at 150 meters below surface, near the known western limits of the deposit. High grade was also encountered at the extreme west end of the deposit in drill hole #SGX-10-09, cutting 61.8 g/tonne (1.81 oz/ton) over 1 meter (3.3 ft) at 75 meters below surface. The Timmins North gold deposit is owned 50% by San Gold Corporation (SGR: TSX) and 50% by SGX Resources Inc. with SGX being the operator.

The deposit has not been fully delineated, and is open at depths below 250 meters. In addition, there are numerous areas within the deposit which have not been drill tested and could contain additional resources. This property is located within the Tully Township, near and to the north of Timmins, ON.

This program was carried out under the supervision of John Boissoneault, P.Eng., of SGX Resources Inc., the qualified person responsible for this news release. The drill core was split, with half sent to an accredited lab in Timmins, ON and fire assayed with an AA and gravimetric finish. Whole metallic assays were performed on samples containing visible gold. Check assays were also performed on pulps and rejects, as well, blanks and standards were inserted into the sample stream. The core lengths are actual lengths as drilled and have not been adjusted for the true width of the mineralized zones.
