Temex is a Canadian exploration company focused on its portfolio of precious metals properties in northeastern Ontario.
The company recently unveiled additional high grade gold intersections from drilling at the Upper Hallnor Mine area of its joint venture Whitney property in Timmins, Ontario.
Whitney is an advanced gold project that includes four kilometres of the prolific Timmins gold trend that remains the largest gold producing district of Canada. Whitney is owned 60 percent by Temex and 40 percent by Goldcorp (TSE:G).
The holes reported last week are the last of a program of 32 holes totaling 5,295 metres drilled along a 600 metre strike length in the Upper Hallnor Mine area, targeting the Hallnor South Vein, 1-55 Vein west extension and Hallnor Footwall zones, the company said.
Highlights of the results included results from the Hallnor south vein area, where hole TW12-205 returned 3.45 grams per tonne (g/t) gold over 13.50 metres including 15.15 g/t gold over 0.50 metres.
Since October 2011, the company said a total of 50 holes for 17,750 metres have been drilled in this campaign, which is designed to define gold resources that may be mined near surface.
Aside from Whitney, the company also holds the Juby gold project, which contains the Juby Main Zone resource of 934,645 ounces of gold in the indicated category and 905,621 ounces of gold in the inferred category, both at a cut-off grade of 0.40 g/t gold.
The company also has an NI 43-101 compliant resource for tailings material on its Gowganda silver project in Ontario.
The tailings piles contain a NI 43-101 compliant resource of 1.94 million tonnes grading 47.5 g/t silver for a contained resource of 2.96 million ounces of silver in the indicated category.
