Carmax Mining Announces Proposed Investment by Copper Fox Metals Inc.; and 2014 Field Program Planned for Eaglehead Project

WEST VANCOUVER, April 10, 2014 - Carmax Mining Corp. ("Carmax") (TSX VENTURE:CXM) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a Subscription Agreement with Desert Fox Copper Inc. ("Desert Fox"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Copper Fox Metals Inc. ("Copper Fox") (TSX VENTURE:CUU), whereby Desert Fox will subscribe, via a non-brokered private placement, for 20,000,000 units of Carmax for an aggregate subscription price of CDN$1,000,000. Units (each a "Unit") will be subscribed for at a price of $0.05 per Unit and will consist of one previously unissued common share ("Share") of Carmax and one common share purchase warrant ("Warrant"). The private placement is subject the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange and Carmax's Shareholders. The private placement will close as soon as practicable after such approvals are obtained, provided that they are obtained on or before May 29, 2014.

In connection with the private placement, Carmax will grant Desert Fox certain rights, including, but not limited to:

- The right to nominate two members to the Board of Carmax at each annual meeting of Carmax's shareholders;

- The pre-emptive right to participate in any equity financing of Carmax, so as to maintain its pro rata percentage shareholding in Carmax; and

- The right to make top-up investments in Carmax, by way of future private placements, so as to maintain its pro rata percentage shareholding in Carmax.

The aforementioned rights are, however, subject to Desert Fox, Copper Fox and their affiliates maintaining ownership of 20% of Carmax's issued and outstanding common shares.

Each Warrant will be exercisable for a period of 24 months from the closing date of the applicable private placement and will entitle the holder, on exercise, to purchase one additional common share of Carmax at a price of $0.075 per share.

Concurrent with the private placement to Desert Fox, Carmax will also be undertaking a non-brokered private placement, on a best efforts basis, of an additional 4,000,000 Units (the "Additional Units") at a price of $0.05 per Unit. Carmax's private placement of the Additional Units may yield up to an aggregate of $200,000 in further subscription proceeds. The private placement of the Additional Units is subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

Under the subscription agreement with Desert Fox, Carmax has agreed to use the proceeds of the private placements to carry out a field program on the Eaglehead property this upcoming summer.

Jevin Werbes, President of Carmax commented, "We are excited to welcome Desert Fox, along with its management which has a proven history of developing copper properties in British Columbia, as an equity participant in our Company. Further announcements will be made regarding Desert Fox's proposed nominees to the Board once they are identified."


2014 Field Program

Carmax intends to embark on a field program to advance the Eaglehead project. This will include ground geophysics to better understand the extent of known mineralization and its extensions, 8 to 10 exploration drill holes, 2 drill holes for metallurgical testing, as well as extensive re-logging of historic drill cores. A budget of $1,200,000 is anticipated for the field program.


Eaglehead Project

The Eaglehead Cu-Mo-Au Project is located approximately 1,100 km north of Vancouver and approximately 50 km east of Dease Lake, a town of approximately 200 people, in northwestern British Columbia. The northwest-southeast oriented property extends approximately 28 km along strike from Eaglehead Lake at its northwestern extremity to approximately 8 km past Tournigan River in the southeastern part of the property. The property comprises 31 mineral claims consisting of 613 cells covering a total area of approximately 11,410 hectares (ha) in the Liard Mining Division of British Columbia.

On June 29 2012, Carmax filed a National Instrument 43-101 - Standards for Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101") technical report on SEDAR at www.sedar.com entitled "Technical Report on the Eaglehead Cu-Mo-Au Project, British Columbia, Canada", which was prepared by Roscoe Postle Associates Inc. ("RPA") and dated June 29, 2012 (the "Eaglehead Technical Report"). The Qualified Persons (as defined under NI 43-101) who prepared the Eaglehead Technical Report were Barry McDonough, P.Geo., and David W. Rennie P.Eng. The results of the Eaglehead Technical Report were reported by Carmax in a news release dated July 4, 2012 and entitled "Carmax files Technical Report for the Eaglehead Porphyry Copper-Molybdenum Project on SEDAR" (the "News Release"), a copy of which is available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

The Eaglehead property hosts an Inferred Mineral Resource of 102.5 million tonnes at an average grade of 0.29% Cu, 0.010% Mo and 0.08 g/t Au.

Copper and molybdenum mineralization on the Eaglehead Property is typical of porphyry Cu-Mo systems associated with hydrothermal alteration assemblages within intermediate volcanic rocks and granodioritic and monzonitic rocks, similar to other porphyry copper deposits within the Quesnel Trough of British Columbia. Mineralization is contained in altered rocks, which are localized by geological structures. Mineralization is comprised of altered zones, quartz stockworks, and hydrothermal breccia zones that contain disseminated chalcopyrite and other sulphide minerals. Past work has identified six target areas.


Highlights:

- The Eaglehead property has a current Inferred Mineral Resource of 102.5 million tonnes at an average grade of 0.29% copper, 0.010% molybdenum and 0.08 g/t gold (containing 663 million pounds copper, 22.07 million pounds molybdenum and 265,600 ounces gold within conceptual open pit limits);

- The mineralization on the Eaglehead property contains silver; the content of which was not included in the resource estimate due to the assay methodology;

- The Inferred Mineral Resource is contained in two of the six zones of mineralization identified to date on the Eaglehead property, all zones of mineralization are open along strike and at depth;

- The mineralization is characterized by strong, pervasive alteration, quartz veining and consists of disseminated and veinlet chalcopyrite-bornite-molybdenite and pyrite;

- Alteration associated with the mineralization consists of pervasive potassic, chlorite-sericite, sericite, propylitic alteration and carbonate assemblages;

- A number of the diamond drill holes intersected intervals of high-grade copper mineralization with associated molybdenum-gold-silver mineralization over significant intervals (See Drill Highlights below); and

- The Eaglehead Technical Report, a copy of which is available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com, provides detailed information about the Eaglehead property.
