CANEX METALS COMMENTS ON THE GEOLOGY AND STYLE OF MINERALIZATION
INTERSECTED IN 2018 DRILLING AT GIBSON
Calgary, Alberta - CANEX Metals Inc. (“CANEX” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide comments on
the geology and style of mineralization at the Company’s Gibson Gold -Silver Project following
observations made during the recent 2018 drilling program.
The Gibson Gold-Silver Property is located in north central British Columbia, 50 kilometres west of the
Mount Milligan Cu-Au Mine and 40 kilometres southeast of the Kwanika Cu -Au deposit. The property
sits within a northwest trending belt of alkalic porphyry deposits and related prospects located within
the prolific Quesnellia Terrain. Gibson contains base -metal rich quartz veins and breccias hosted in
hornfelsed sedimentary and volcanic rocks of the Lower Jurassic Takla Group. The minera lization is
located within about 500 metres of the contact of the Early Jurassic Hogem Batholith. CANEX Metals
has the right to earn a 100% interest in the property from Altius Resources Inc. by issuing shares and
spending $500,000 on exploration.
In October 2018 the Company completed 10 drill holes at Gibson and excavated two trenches. Assay
results for this program have not yet been received and are expected in 5 to 6 weeks. The drilling
successfully intersected zones of quartz -sulfide veining consist ent with those described in historic
drilling from the zone.
Observations from drill core indicate quartz -sulfide veins and breccias occur along fault zone s which
locally contain altered and mineralized rhyolite dikes . Larger veins contain pronounced halos of clay
and sericite alteration, grading outward into an assemblage of chlorite, epidote, calcite , and pyrite.
Veins range from less than 0.2 metres to over 2.5 metres wide and contain quartz and calcite with
variable amounts of sulfides consisting mainly of pyrite, sphalerite, and galena, with minor chalcopyrite
and arsenopyrite. Sulfide content in veins ranges from trace amounts up to 50% or more. Drilling and
trenching show mineralized zones occur along both flat and steeply dipping fault structures, locally with
multiple episodes of veining, brecciation, and fault movement. Some holes hit up to 5 separate quartz-
sulfide veins showing multiple veins within the main Gibson zone.
Photographs from the 2018 Gibson exploration program are available here and in the photo gallery on
the Company’s website at www.canexmetals.ca. The photographs show the new zone discovered in
Trench 10, the drill rig used for the program, and examples of drill core showing quartz -sulfide veins
and breccias along with vein textures. Many of the veins contain coarse banding of sulfides and
quartz, including crustiform banding and c ockade textures. The banded textures, the association with
quartz-carbonate-sulfide veins and breccias locally with open space fillings , and the pronounced clay -
sericite alteration halos grading outward into propyllitic assemblages are all features consistent with an
epithermal style system. Analogies for this style of mineralization in British Columbia include the
Bruckjack Mine, the Lawyers Mine, and the Silbak Premier Mine.

The Gibson Prospect
The Gibson prospect is 887 he ctares in size and located in central British Columbia, approximately 95
kilometres northwest of Fort St. James. The area is accessible via a network of all -weather logging
roads. Gibson contains epithermal gold-silver base metal mineralization hosted in highly altered
sedimentary and volcanic rocks adjacent to the Hogem Batholith. The zone was discovered and
explored by Noranda Exploration Company from 1989 to 1991. Noranda drilled 9 holes with 8 of the 9
holes intersecting significant gold and silver mineralization. The best drill intercept returned 4.26
metres grading 6.77 g/t gold and 1828 g/t silver. Prior to the 2017 trenching program by CANEX n o
follow up trenching or drilling has been conducted at Gibson since the highly successful Noranda
program. Known mineralized zones at Gibson are located within a strong soil anomaly 850 metres
long by 500 metres wide, and only a small portion of that anomaly has been explored by trenching or
drilling.
The Noranda drill results are reported in BC Assessme nt report 21762 for Noranda Exploration
Company by Stewart and Walker (1991). This drilling was done prior to NI 43 -101 and should be
considered historic in nature. The results have not been verified by CANEX and should not be relied
upon.
