More positive results from Argex's West Hervieux target drilling
- 351 feet (107.0 metres) of 0.52% V2O5, 64.33% Fe2O3 and 19.48% TiO2 in holes HW-10-031 - 346 feet (105.4 metres) of 0.50% V2O5, 61.92% Fe2O3 and 17.85% TiO2 in hole HW-10-029 - Results for 9 additional holes complete, 8 holes pending results - Nearly 15,000 m of drilling completed on the La Blache property since the start of 2010 drilling
MONTREAL, June 8 /CNW Telbec/ - Argex Silver Capital Inc. TSX-V:RGX Argex or the Company reports additional final results intersected from drilling at the La Blache property, West Hervieux occurrence. Many of the intersections include internal dilution of mineralization by unmineralized dykes. Based on these results and the holes that are pending at the lab, Argex plans to return to drilling at the West Hervieux target.
Assay results continue to confirm visual identification of well mineralized massive titaniferous magnetite. Wide intersections of 105.4m (346 feet) of 61.92 % Fe2O3, 17.85% TiO2 and 0.50% V2O5 in hole HW-10-029, and 107m (351 feet) of 64.33 % Fe2O3, 19.48% TiO2 and 0.52% V2O5 in hole HW-10-031.In hole HW-10-030, three separate zones of massive titaniferous magnetite were intersected for a total of 147.55 m (484 feet) of mineralization.
Drilling on the La Blache Properties has now seen in excess of 110 holes totaling more than 6000 metres completed in 41 holes at the West Hervieux occurrence and nearly 9000m in 69 holes on the East Hervieux occurrence, located approximately 2 km east and 1.25 km north of the West Hervieux Occurrence.
All results are drill intersections along the length of the core and may not be representative of the true thickness. See the intersection and preliminary results table below (all results are fina1):

The drill program was planned and is being supervised by Jean-Sébastien Lavallée, P.Geo (OGQ #773), Consul-Teck Exploration Inc., of Val d'or, Québec, Argex's Silver Capital Inc. consulting geologist and qualified person since 2007, as well as reviewing and approving this release. The drilling is being completed Major Drilling Group International Inc, with crews being based out of the Val d'or, Québec office Samples were sent for analysis in sealed containers to the Chemex laboratory in Val-d'Or by employees of Consul-Teck Exploration Inc. Chemex is the laboratory used for analysis of all samples from programs on the La Blache property. The samples are weighed and identified prior to sample preparation. The samples are crushed to 70% minus 2 mm, then separation and pulverized to 85% passing 75 (micro)m. All samples are analyzed using ICP-81 (Iron-Titanium) and using ME-XRF-10 for Vanadium.
