June 12, 2017 / TheNewswire / VANCOUVER, BC - Goldex Resources Corporation (TSX VENTURE: GDX; Frankfurt: WKN-A2AEDT, Ticker: G6T2) ("Goldex" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that from from May 15th to the 26th a short geological field program was completed at the Mingeo Property. Mineralization as observed in the four underground adits and surface outcrops is mainly confined to low angle quartz "mantos" (0.10 to 3.0m wide), which in places are strongly folded and/or displaced by quartz bearing faults. The quartz mantos strike ENE to WNW with an average dip of 20 degrees mostly to the north. Some mantos show shear movement along their hanging-wall contacts. The quartz mantos are believed to be of orogenic origin and lie within northern Sonora.
The principal minerals associated with the quartz mantos include disseminations and clusters of fine-grained to coarse-grained pyrite, minor chalcopyrite, sporadic stains of malachite and chalcanthite. Arsenical pyrite may be present as well. In a few areas were the quartz mantos have been brecciated (broken up), open space filling with euhedral crystals of quartz, smoky quartz, and crystals of an unknown green mineral have been observed (Adits 1, 2 and 3).
To date 9 mantos have been identified and sampled. A total of 80 samples were taken. Of these, 67 were of rock samples, and 13 were for quality control purposes. All samples were submitted to ALS CHEMEX in Hermosillo, Mexico. Assay results are still pending and will be made available as soon as they are received.
Victor A. Jaramillo, M.Sc.A., P.Geo. and Q.P. supervised the recent field program and has read and approved the technical section of this news release.
