QUEBEC CITY, QUEBEC -- (Marketwire) -- 11/08/10 -- Robex Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE: RBX)(FRANKFURT: RB4) is pleased to announce the closing with success of a non-brokered placement of $270,000.
Under the terms of this private placement, the company has issued 2,076,923 Units at $0.13 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one common share and one-half (1/2) common share purchase warrant. Each full warrant entitles the holder to purchase one additional common share at $0.18 per share, valid for a period of two years following the closing of this private placement.
The securities issued in this private placement are subject to a four-month hold period under applicable securities legislation and the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange. This placement is subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
Net proceeds from this financing will be used to continue the execution of all necessary tasks so as to initiate a feasibility study on the Nampala project by January 2011. This feasibility study should bring Robex to its objective of production of 45 000 ounces of gold per year.
Various contracts aimed at achieving this feasibility study have been allocating, as those for the hydrogeological and geophysics studies, the environmental studies and the topography studies (see press release of October 18, 2010 for details). Also, Robex is now getting ready for a 5000 to 6000 meter drilling campaign on Nampala. Around 71 reverse circulation holes will be drilled on the North-West extension of the oxide portion of zone 100, between sections 400 and 600. To date, approximately 75% of zone 100 has been drilled at 25 meter spacing as recommended by the 43-101 Coffey Mining report. Past drilling has so far revealed an indicated resource of 244,000 Oz gold in the oxide portion of zone 100 at a grade of 1.05 gpt. The objective of this coming drilling campaign is to increase the indicated resources in zone 100 between the surface down to approximately 80 meters in the saprolite.
Robex is also presently assessing various options for the development of infrastructures which could support a mining operation processing 5000 tonnes per day via cyanidation to produce around 45000 ounces of gold per year.
The technical content of this press release and the results contained within have been verified by Mr. Jacques Marchand, certified NI 43-101 engineer geologist in charge of resource calculations.
