TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

PJX Resources Inc. (“PJX”) is pleased to announce exploration is well underway on the Dewdney Trail Property.

  • Over 20 large target areas with gold mineralization potential identified by geophysics on Dewdney Trail Property.
  • Drilling commences to explore one target area where rock grab samples contain up to 10 g/t gold.

Large target areas with gold mineralization potential have been identified using airborne geophysical survey data on PJX Resources' Dewdney Trail Property. Over 20 target areas have been identified by the airborne magnetic or conductivity signature of the rocks. (see target areas on magnetic and conductivity maps at http://pjxresources.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/PJX-Mag-Cond-Map-1.jpg) More than half of the target areas have been prospected to date. Approximately 400 rock samples have been collected and sent for analysis to determine the gold potential.

Most impressive about one of the targets, called the M1, is its size. The interbedded quartzite and argillite unit is over 200 meter in true width. This variably altered unit with sericite, quartz-pyrite, iron-carbonate, and iron-oxide can be traced for over 4 km along strike. A rock grab sample returning 18 g/t gold was collected in the C2 target area about 2 km away and on strike with the M1 target area. There is over 12 km of the favourable altered quartzite with gold showings on the Dewdney Trail Property.

The large tonnage potential of the gold quartzite rock unit is what attracted PJX to the area. The Dewdney Trail Technical Report concludes that the gold showings exhibit many features in common that support potential for a large tonnage deposit of the Sediment Hosted Vein type (SHV). SHV deposits are some of the largest gold producers in the world. (go to www.pjxresources.com to view the Technical Report and information on SHV deposits)

PJX is currently focused on trenching part of the M1 target area to assess the orientation and controls on gold mineralization found at surface. Grab rock samples taken previously from a fractured altered quartzite (sedimentary rock) unit range from 200 ppb to 10,000 ppb (0.2 g/t to10 g/t) gold. Drilling has also commenced to test one part of the M1 target area for gold mineralization within the quartzite unit at depth.

The foregoing geological disclosure has been reviewed by Mr. John Keating, P. Geo (a qualified person for the purpose of National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects). Mr. Keating is the President, CEO and a director of PJX.

More information will be announced about PJX's exploration activities and other properties in the coming weeks. Please refer to our web site http://www.pjxresources.com for additional information.
