CANEX ANNOUNCES POSITIVE SOIL RESULTS FROM GOLD RANGE
Calgary, Alberta - CANEX Metals Inc. (“CANEX” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce soil
results for sampling conducted in late May to early June at the Gold Range Property, Arizona.
A 776 sample soil program consisting of multiple east-west trending soil lines was conducted
over several targets across the Gold Range property.
Highlights
• An east-west soil line has returned a 390 metre gold in soil anomaly immediately
south of the Pit Zone, with values up to 613 parts per billion gold.
• The SouthWest Zone, a new discovery, contains strong gold in soil s associated
with a granite dike and a 700 metre long magnetic low.
• Multiple linear northwest and northeast trending gold in soil anomalies have been
identified south of the Pit Zone and could represent high grade structurally
controlled zones of gold mineralization.
• Maps showing the soil and rock sample results from the southern part of the Gold
Range property and from the SouthWest Zone are available here.
Grid soil sampling continues to successfully identify, define, and expand gold exploration
targets. A soil line located immediately south of the Pit Zone has returned a 390 metre interval
of anomalous gold in soils ranging from 20 to 613 parts per billion (ppb) gold, averaging 121 ppb
gold. This large anomaly indicates gold mineralization could be more widespread in the
immediate Pit Zone area than previously recognized.
Multiple new soil lines were run across the southern part of the claim block and help define at
least 4 linear northwest and northeast trending gold in soil anomalies. These anomalies are up
to 450 metres long and 60 metres wide, are largely open along strike , and are interpreted to
represent structurally controlled gold targets.
In May of this year the Company announced a new high-grade gold discovery in outcrop located
370 metres northwest of the Pit Zone (53.2 g/t gold over 0.6 metres previously announced in

June 29, 2020
May 11, 2020 news release). This new discovery has been termed the SouthWest (SW) Zone
and was initially found by following up a gold in soil anomaly . Four additional soil lines were
conducted at the SW Zone during the latest round of soil sampling and outline a 120 metre long
by up to 80 metre wide gold-in-soil anomaly which is closed to the north but remains open to the
south. This anomaly is spatially associated with a fine-grained granite dike and a pronounced
linear magnetic low which extends at least 7 00 metres to the south . A single soil line located
390 metres south of the SW Zone soil anomaly crosses the linear magnetic low and contains
two zones of strong gold in soil values, each 50 metres across with a 50 metre zone of modest
gold in soil values in -between. These results indicate the large magnetic low is a strong gold
target with good size potential, measuring about 700 metres long by 60 to 80 metres wide.
Exploration Update
A surface exploration program will commence at Gold Range within a week focusing on
mapping, sampling, and trenching at select zones in order to finalize and prioritize drill targeting.
CANEX has retained a geophysical contractor to conduct at least two induced polarization and
resistivity test lines over the Pit Zone. Results from this test geophysical survey are expected in
the middle of July. A minimum 1675 metre reverse circulation drill program is scheduled to
commence at Gold Range during the third week in July.
Quality Control
The 776 soil samples reported here had gold results ranging from 2 parts per billion (ppb) to 613
ppb, averaging 20 ppb. The soil samples were taken by a contract geological services company
with all samples delivered to ALS USA Inc. in Elko, Nevada (which is ISO/IEC 17025 accredited).
For each sample approximately 0.5 kg of material was sampled from 10 to 25 centimeters depth
along pre-determined sample grids. Eight hundred and seven samples were delivered to ALS
including 776 soil samples, 16 standards and 15 duplicates. Gold was assayed using a 30g fire
assay (method Au-ICP21) with an ICP-AES finish.
About the Gold Range Property
The Gold Range Property is located in Northern Arizona within an area that has seen historic
lode and placer gold production but limited systematic modern lode gold exploration. Fieldwork
by the Company has identified numerous gold exploration targets on the property with grab
samples from outcropping quartz veins returning multiple values in the 20 to 40 g/t gold range,
and chip sampling returning values of 53.2 g/t gold over 0.6 metres, 31.7 g/t gold over 1 metre,
24.3 g/t gold over 1.5 metres, 28.1 g/t gold over 1 metre, 17.2 g/t over 1.1 metre, and 8.47 g/t
gold over 5.6 metres. Please visit our website at www.canexmetals.ca for additionnel
