(TSX Venture: Pjx.v) Exploration Update
(TSX VENTURE: PJX.V)
EXPLORATION UPDATE
Toronto, Ontario – July 27, 2017 – PJX Resources Inc. (“PJX” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce
that drilling on the Vine Property is on -going and results continue to support the potential for a massive
sulphide (zinc, lead, copper) deposit. Exploration for gold has also commenced with a primary focus to
follow-up on the 898 and 256 grains of gold discovered in 2 soil samples on the Zinger Property and the
gold found in creeks on the Dewdney Trail Property. Field crews will also explore the Eddy Property for
possible sources of placer gold found in Moyie Creek.
Base Metal Exploration (Zinc, Lead, Copper)
Widely spaced drill holes, approximately 500 metres to over 1.5 kilometres apart, on the Vine Prope rty
have intersected anomalous zinc mineralization, massive sulphide (pyrite, pyrrhotite) mineralization and
fragmental rocks.
“The recently intersected fragmental rocks and massive sulphide mineralization in widely spaced holes
suggest that the sedimentary basin at the Vine Property is potentially as large or larger than the Sullivan
sedimentary basin when you take into consideration the Fors (zinc, lead, silver) occurrence owned by
PJX Resources on their West Basin Property” , states Dave Pighin, PGeo fo r the Vine Project. “The East
and West Gravity anomalies on the Vine Property are each of a size that could host a deposit. Drilling on
the large East Gravity anomaly has outlined a zone of anomalous zinc mineralization at least 550 meters
long with a tr ue thickness of about 100.0 meters. Limited drilling on the West Gravity anomaly has
identified anomalous zinc mineralization in what appears to be a sub basin, similar to what occurs at the
Sullivan mine. Further drilling on strike and at depth is required for both these target areas.”
Drilling on the Vine Property is planned to continue through the summer . Given the terrible and
unfortunate forest fire situation in central BC, approximately 500 kilometres northwest of the Vine
Property, the BC Government has restricted industrial activity using heavy equipment such as excavators
and drills. To help prevent the potential for fires , any industrial equipment is restricted from being used
between 1:00 pm in the afternoon and sundown. In support of these efforts, we have reduced drilling
from having day and night shifts to only the night crew working. The plan will be to return to 2 shifts
when the restriction is lifted.
“Drilling in 2017 has identified hydrothermal alteration and mineralization that is consistent with what
you would see around a Sullivan type deposit.” states John Keating, President and CEO. “We continue to
be encouraged by our results and look forward to this next phase of drilling.”
Gold Exploration
Heavy mineral separation by CF Min erals Laboratory in Kelowna, a s announced by PJX Resources on
January 17, 2017, recovered 898 grains and 256 grains of gold from 2 soil samples taken on the Zinger
Property. CF Mineral Research Ltd. also extracted 36 grains of gold from three stream sedi ment
samples on the Dewdney Trail Property (see PJX press release October 26, 2016).
Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) analysis by CF Minerals, suggest that gold grains found in soils and
stream sediments are close to the bedrock source. G eologist Dr. Charles (Chuck) Fipke, President of CF
Minerals Research Ltd., has assessed the gold grains and determined that th e angularity and other
morphological features support that they have not travelled far and that the bedrock source of the gold
is likely within 50 metres to 400 metres of the sample locations on the Zinger Property, with the source
of gold grains in stream sediments on the Dewdney Trail Property likely within 200 metres to 600
metres. In addition, Dr. Fipke’s assessment of the foreign residue material on the gold grains suggests
that gold on both properties may be associated with potassic altered sediments and/or felsic intrusive
rocks. (See PJX press releases October 26, 2016 and April 12, 2017).
The primary focus of exploration this summe r on the Dewdney Trail and Zinger Properties is to identify
bedrock sources of gold. Permitting is underway with plans to trench and/or drill potential targets
identified by this work. Preliminary mapping and sampling will also be carried out on the Edd y Property
to define gold targets for future testing.
