Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - April 26, 2022) - BMEX Gold Inc. (TSXV: BMEX) (OTCQB: MRIRF) (FSE: 8M0) ("BMEX" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the results of its Fall 2021 drilling campaign at King Tut Gold Project ('King Tut" or the "Project") in the Abitibi region, Québec, Canada. Significant grades include 7.07 g/t Au over 1.00 m from drill hole TUT-21-032 in a newly discovered gold zone (the Luxor Gold Zone) and 7.61 g/t g/t Au over 0.75 m within the known mineralized area from drill hole TUT-21-023. All assays from the Fall 2021 drill campaign at King Tut have been received and reported. Figure 1 shows the location of the discussed drill holes with their significant intersects. Composited gold grades are resumed in Table 1. Collar coordinates and drill holes information are listed in Table 2.
TUT-21-032, which returned the above-mentioned promising grades of the campaign, is located 700 m South-West from the King Tut showing, along the Main King Tut trend (Figure 1). This drill hole is isolated and thus defines a new gold zone (Luxor Zone) on its own. Gold in TUT-21-032 is associated to a silicified tourmaline-carbonate-pyrite brecciated zone which marks the contact between relatively ductile tuffs and more competent andesite unit (Figure 2). Fall 2021 drill holes in the heart of the known King Tut showing delivered several similar gold-bearing geological conditions to TUT-21-032. Every drill hole along the Main King Tut Trend intersected evidence of an intense deformation corridor: intensely sheared zones, complex folding of S1 and pervasive sericite-carbonate-silica alterations. As shown on Figure 1, TUT-21-032 also cuts a West-South-West lineament interpreted from the magnetic susceptibility maps. Hence, this drill hole, being isolated but potentially cross-cutting two major structures and exhibiting typical gold-bearing hydrothermal mineralization known in greenstone belts, represents a highly prospective discovery for the Company.

In addition to TUT-21-032's Luxor zone, gold grades were also found in TUT-21-030 which targeted the Audet-Ouest showing vicinity. TUT-21-030 intercepted 1.68 g/t Au over 1.50 m and 0.32 g/t Au over 7.50 m at 150 m East of the known surface occurrences from Audet-Ouest showing. These intersections and the historical surface gold values from the showing are aligned along a West-South-West lineament interpreted from the magnetic susceptibility maps (Figure 1). This lineament, from now mentioned as the Audet-Ouest trend, is unexplored and TUT-21-030 gold grades are the first drilling results over it. The rest of the Fall 2021 drilling results are located within the known King Tut showing.

Table 2 : Fall 2021 drill holes information
Robert Pryde, President of BMEX Gold, commented: "Overall, the results from the Fall 2021 drilling campaign are promising especially when one considers the Luxor gold zone is a new gold discovery on the property and the geology of this zone warrants follow up work. Each of the holes in the 2021 drill campaign at King Tut intersected gold values which is a very important indication of the potential for a regional scale system on the property and demonstrates potential for additional gold discoveries. Our technical team is building a strong understanding of the gold occurrence and emplacement over the known and newly discovered assets at King Tut. Accordingly, we are going back to King Tut in 2022, starting with a field prospecting and mapping survey during Summer followed by a drilling campaign during Fall 2022. We also intend to launch an exploration program on the Dunlop Bay Property this year."
Following the compilation work over the Dunlop Bay Property (Mattagami region, Quebec, Canada) the BMEX technical team has identified several base and precious metal trends that are summarized in (Figure 3).
The Dunlop Bay exploration program started in April with a surface MAG-EM survey over Dunlop Bay-Ouest and interpretation. Surface prospecting, mapping and sampling is planned over the balance of the property during summer 2022, with a focus on the 'Baie Dunlop' showing and 'Mont Laurier Est' extension. The results from these two steps will be used to target a 3,000 metres drilling campaign that is planned for Fall 2022.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 18, 2021) - BMEX Gold Inc. (TSXV: BMEX) (FSE: 8M0) ("BMEX" or the "Company") is pleased to announce a 3,000-metre Phase 2 drill program on the King Tut project. BMEX conducted a drone magnetic survey on the property as a follow up to the inaugural 4,500-metre drill program which returned anomalous gold values in nearly every hole related to quartz-carbonates veining, indicating that a hydrothermal gold-bearing system is hosted on the property. Highlight hole TUT-21-018 assayed 81.89 g/t Au over 0.45 metres and targeted the western edge of the known gold-bearing structure at King Tut leaving nearly 2 km of strike length between Tut and Audet Quest to the west to drill test an identified shear zone in the Phase 2 program. The drill targets (see Figure 1) were identified from integrating data collected from the magnetic survey, geological data from the previous drill program, and geological modelling. BMEX will be using two rigs to evaluate this trend in order to reduce costs and expedite results. Drilling is anticipated to be completed by Dec 15, 2021.

(TSXV: BMEX) (OTCQB: MRIRF) (FSE: 8M0) ("BMEX" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that diamond drill hole TUT-21-018 has intersected visible gold assaying 81.89 g/t Au over 0.45 metres at its King Tut Gold Project ("King Tut" or the "Project"), located in the Abitibi region of Quebec, Canada (Figures 1 and 2). A re-assay of the sample returned 143.79 g/t Au. All assay results for the Company's recently completed its 2020-21 drill program at King Tut have now been received. Results for drill holes TUT-21-011 to TUT-21-019 can be found in Table 1; collar coordinates and hole orientations are listed in Table 2. Previous results were reported in press releases dated March 11, 2021 and March 23, 2021.
Warner Uhl, President and CEO of BMEX Gold, commented, "I am very pleased with the assay results from hole 18, which was one of the last holes targeting the main structure at King Tut. In addition, we are pleased that nearly all our drill holes have returned gold mineralization over variable widths which is very encouraging for a first pass drill program. The system carries high-grade gold and our geological consulting team will be evaluating the whole drill program in conjunction with other geophysical tools and modelling to create a robust follow-up exploration program. We are well financed for this work and we are collaborating with one of the best geological teams in Canada."

Assay results for the 19-hole, 5119-metres drill program are currently being compiled with the historic drill results as the Company continues to build a comprehensive exploration model for the Project. Recent results, especially this new high-grade interval, confirm the presence of high-grade gold system at King Tut. Upcoming work includes a drone magnetic survey this summer to support detailed geological modelling. The new exploration model will provide the basis for a targeting study ahead of a follow-up diamond drill program in the fall.
