APEX RESOURCES REPORTS INITIAL RESULTS OF PHASE 1 EXPLORATION ON
ITS KENA-DAYLIGHT GOLD PROJECTS
August 16, 2017, Vancouver, BC - Apex Resources Inc. (“Apex”) (TSXV: APX) is pleased to
report that its Joint Venture partner, Prize Mining Corp ("Prize" or the "Company")
(TSXV:PRZ), has released results for an initial batch of soil assay results from Phase 1 fieldwork
on the Daylight portion of the Kena Project.
Results confirm the presence of at least two large prospective geochemical trends:
1) The Great Western geochemical anomaly is approximately 1km long by 300m wide and
includes 48 samples over the 90th percentile of 100 ppb Au. A cluster of strongly anomalous
samples in the northern part of geochemical anomaly returned up to 745 ppb Au. A 300m trench
will be dug along that trend during the Phase II program.
2) The Daylight-Starlight trend had nine samples that returned greater than 100 ppb Au,
including a best sample return of 8009 ppb Au. This is the highest gold-in-soil sample result in
recorded history along the Silver King shear system dating back to the early 1970's. The pattern
of soil anomalies along the 1.3km long Daylight-Starlight trend is narrower and somewhat spotty
in comparison to the Great Western Trend, but an alignment of significant anomalous Au-Ag-
and Bi in soils does coincide with known IP chargeability trends and with the known historical
workings.
A detailed map outlining the results can be found on Prize's website at the following link:

Feisal Somji, president and chief executive officer of Prize Mining, commented: "We are excited
to report the best soil samples to date on the Daylight property which highlight the potential for
the discovery focused drill program. We will use a combination of the new encouraging soil
results, historical soil samples and past drilling and geophysical analysis to refine the upcoming
Phase -II trenching and Phase- III drilling programs schedule to start in August and September
2017."
ICP analysis of soils (AQ252) was performed by Bureau Veritas, in Vancouver BC, on a total of
462 samples on the Daylight property. All soil sample results for the Daylight property which
includes the Great Western & Eastern zones, and the Daylight-Starlight trend are now available.
Remaining results for the Toughnut property are expected mid-August.

technical information in this news release.
Prize Mining Corp has an option to acquire an 80% interest in Apex’s Kena and Daylight
properties. To exercise its option and earn its 80% interest in the project, Prize will make annual
cash and share option payments over 36 months totally $1,250,000 and issue 1,500,000 shares
