QMX Gold Closes $17.5 Million Bridge Financing

TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 11/28/12 -- QMX GOLD CORPORATION (TSX: QMX)(OTCQX: QMXGF) ("QMX Gold" or the "Company") has completed the fully secured bridge financing from Third Eye Capital as previously announced on November 12, 2012 (the "Financing").

The Financing consists of a senior, secured note with a face value of US$17.5 million which will result in net proceeds to QMX Gold of US$15.5 million.

The Financing is for a one year term and QMX Gold will be required to make cash interest payments starting June 28, 2013 at a rate of US$250,000 per month. In addition to the interest payments, QMX Gold will grant Third Eye Capital 2,900,000 warrants to acquire common shares of the Company at the exercise price of $0.2525, which represents the 10-day VWAP of the common shares of the Company as traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange.

The Financing was used to pay out the approximately US$10.3 million bridge financing held by Resource Income Fund L.P, which was paid on November 12, 2012. The remaining proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes. Stan Bharti or Forbes & Manhattan, Inc. did not receive any fee in connection with this Financing.

On the closing Francois Perron commented, "The financing provided by Third Eye Capital has now given us the flexibility to look at other options to raise the capital necessary for the success of the Snow Lake Mine. They were able to move quickly and have a facility closed within a matter of weeks so I can now continue my focus on the task of raising capital for this important project."
