ROUYN-NORANDA, May 11, 2023 - Globex Mining Enterprises Inc. (GMX - Toronto Stock Exchange, G1MN - Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Berlin, Munich, Tradegate, Lang & Schwarz, LS Exchange, TTMzero, Düsseldorf and Quotrix Düsseldorf Stock Exchanges and GLBXF - OTCQX International in the US) is pleased to inform shareholders that Orford Mining Corporation (ORM-TSXV) has reported multiple gold zones in Hole 23-JE-017 on the Joutel Eagle Property in Northern Quebec. View Orford's press release here.
Hole 23-JE-017 intersected multiple thick gold zones such as 1.4 g/t gold over 9.9 metres including 5.0 g/t over 2.3 metres, 1.4 g/t over 17.6 metres including 5.0 g/t over 2.5 metres and 0.80 g/t over 21.3 metres.
David Christie, President and CEO of Orford, commented, "The continued strong results from the 2023 drill campaign on our Joutel Eagle property continue to indicate the tremendous potential value in the South Gold Zone. The multiple thick intersections in hole 23-JE-017 improves the continuity of gold grade and thickness across the South Gold zone. We will review the results received from the 2023 drill program and will start to plan a follow-up drill program."

The Joutel Eagle Property is located along the fertile Casa-Berardi Structural Zone and historical Eagle-Telbel Mine Trend in the Abitibi Greenstone belt. 14 holes totaling 2,535 metres have been drilled in 2023. This drilling program has tested a 400-metre strike length of the South Gold Zone (Figure 1). Orford's drilling results received to date, both in the 2022 and preliminary 2023 drilling results have shown that the South Gold Zone hosts higher grade gold over wider intersections than had been reported historically.
