TORONTO, Dec. 8, 2014 /CNW/ - Temex Resources Corp. (TSX-V: TME, FWB: TQ1) ("Temex" or "the Company") announces that it has signed an agreement to purchase from Silver Eagle Mines Inc. ("Silver Eagle"), a subsidiary of Excellon Resources Inc., a 100% interest in the Byberg Property ("Byberg") located in the west central area of the Juby Gold Project (the "Project"). The Byberg location is shown on a map accessed via link at the end of this news release and is also available on the Company's website at www.temexcorp.com. The Juby Gold Project is located in Tyrrell Township, northeastern Ontario 45 kilometres southwest of AuRico's Young Davidson Mine.

Commented Ian Campbell, President and CEO, "The Byberg purchase further consolidates our dominant landholdings in this emerging gold district. It is a strategic property, located proximal to the Tyrrell Structural Zone and adjacent to our Big Dome and Hydro Creek gold zones with high grade gold intercepts in drill core providing direct evidence of enriched gold systems in this area of the Juby Project. Furthermore, the acquisition immediately adds excellent exploration potential for near surface gold discoveries as our exploration team has already defined a major new gold trend over several kilometres, and projected to cross the southern half of Byberg, and which has yet to see a drill bit."

The Byberg Property, which consists of 6 mining claims held under mining leases and covering 290 acres, is important as it solidifies Temex's 100% ownership of the important Tyrrell Structural Zone ("TSZ") and related gold bearing structures. The TSZ contains all of the NI 43-101 gold resources outlined to date although Temex has only explored about one third of its extent on the Project. The TSZ and related structures represent a major structural feature similar in many geological respects to the regionally extensive Larder Lake–Cadillac and Porcupine–Destor faults zones which are host to the world class Kirkland Lake, Matachewan and Timmins gold camps.

Despite limited historical work, gold mineralization is widespread on Byberg and includes drill intersections that demonstrate the potential for mesothermal gold deposits similar to those in Kirkland Lake and Timmins in addition to the potential for bulk tonnage gold deposits. Drill intersections in the 1980s reported by Dome Exploration Canada include:

• 504.34 g/t gold over 0.30 metres
• 6.65 g/t gold over 9.36 metres including 117.09 g/t gold over 0.30 metres
• 2.87 g/t gold over 15.06 metres
• 1.48 g/t gold over 45.60 metres

Major gold zones within the Juby Gold Project in the immediate area include the south dipping Big Dome and Hydro Creek gold zones from which Temex reported in January 2014 NI 43-101 gold resources which include drill intersections of 217.50 g/t gold over 2.10 metres, 13.10 g/t gold over 3.00 metres, 80.70 g/t gold over 2.10 metres, 5.89 g/t gold over 12.50 metres, 3.58 g/t gold over 20.20 metres and 4.28 g/t gold over 14.00 metres.

Note: Figures for Tonnage and Contained Ounces have been rounded.

As consideration for Temex's acquisition of the acquired interests, Temex has agreed to issue to Silver Eagle 750,000 common shares of Temex (each, a "Common Share"). The Common Shares to be issued by Temex are subject to a hold period which will expire 4 months plus a day from the date of issue. In addition, Temex has granted Silver Eagle a 1% Net Smelter Returns Royalty of which Temex retains the right to buy back one half of the Royalty for $500,000 at any time. The share issuance is subject to approval by the TSX Venture Exchange.
