Vancouver, December 16, 2021 - BMEX Gold Inc. (TSXV: BMEX) (FSE: 8M0) ("BMEX" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the completion of a 3,000-metre Phase 2 drill program on the King Tut Project located in the Abitibi Gold Belt. The program consisted of drilling 17 holes (see Figure 1) utilizing two rigs with 3089 m of NQ-size diamond drill core being recovered from the TUT/ Audet Quest Trend and was completed ahead of schedule and under budget.
For this phase-II drilling campaign on the property, the company conducted the DDH program on the main known Tut zone but also explored 2 km of strike length between King Tut and Audet Quest (Audet Ouest deformation trend, figure 1) and 2 km of strike length of the Main King Tut deformation Trend. Both structures were interpreted using recently acquired high resolution magnetic drone survey. Several holes were drilled on the main deposit and on both interpreted deformation trend outline important quartz veining system, alteration and deformation. Assay results are pending and will be announced when received. For the location of the King Tut property see Figure 2.
