[{"type":"text","content":"Amex Expands QF Zone - Intercepts of up to 2.29% CuEq over 9.85 m and 2.43% CuEq over 5.15 mMontreal, Quebec--(Newsfile Corp. - March 15, 2023) - Amex Exploration Inc. (TSXV: AMX) (FSE: MX0) (OTCQX: AMXEF) (\"Amex or the Company\") is pleased to announce assay results from new follow-up and expansion drillholes on the copper rich volcanogenic massive sulphide ('VMS') QF Zone. The QF Zone occurs along the Normétal Mine Horizon which is a kilometric tuffaceous unit that hosts the nearby past-producing Normétal Mine as shown in Figure 1. See Figures 2 & 3 for a plan map and longitudinal section of the drill intercepts and Figure 4 for photos of the polymetallic sulfide mineralization. See Table 1 for a complete list of results and Table 2 for drill hole coordinates.Highlights include:PEX-22-131: 2.29% CuEq comprising 1.53% Cu, 1.33% Zn, 0.20 g/t Au and 12.65 g/t Ag over 9.85 m (core length) including 4.88% CuEq comprising 3.98% Cu, 0.90% Zn, 0.50 g/t Au and 27.27 g/t Ag over 2.55 m (core length) at a vertical depth of approximately 700 m;PEX-22-128 intersected 2.43% CuEq comprising 1.89% Cu, 0.35% Zn, 0.42 g/t Au and 15.64 g/t Ag over 5.15 m (core length), including 5.18% CuEq comprising 3.55% Cu, 2.67% Zn, 0.60 g/t Au and 22.25 g/t Ag over 3.55 m (core length) at a vertical depth of approximately 500 m.The QF Zone grades and widths compares favourably to the neighbouring Normetal Mine which produced approximately 10.1 million tonnes grading 2.24% Cu, 5.41% Zn, 0.53 g/t Au, and 44.45 g/t Ag 1937 to 1975, with development down to a depth of approximately 2.40 km (SIGEOM - Mine Normétal).Jacques Trottier, PhD, Executive Chairman of Amex Exploration commented, \"Today's results include extensions both along strike to the East (hole PEX-22-128) and at depth (hole PEX-22-131), both of which delivered strong copper-dominant polymetallic grades over attractive widths. The zone shows remarkable consistency in its metal content, dominated by copper, with lesser but always present zinc, gold, and silver. This is a comparable metal assemblage to the neighbouring Normetal mine's metal tenor at depth. We have now drilled over 25 holes into the QF zone and have determined that it is a robust zone of VMS mineralization. Amex plans to conduct another round of borehole electromagnetics (EM) on hole PEX-22-131 which should provide...
