Together with strategic partner Touba Mining, Merrex has acquired five mineral permits covering over 700 square kilometres and has a permit applications in progress for an additional approximately 200 square kilometres, all within the West Mali Gold Belt, a region which currently produces in excess of one million ounces of gold per year from such well-known large gold deposits as the Sadiola and Loulo mines. The Merrex permits cover highly prospective land with significant geological structures, associated geochemically anomalous gold zones, extensive orpailleur alluvial gold workings and artisinal underground workings.

“These partial results were rush-assayed because our field crew recognized that we had hit the right rock type at depth” commented Merrex President and CEO Greg Isenor, P. Geo. “Partial assay results from two holes at Siribaya Zone 1B include hole SR-DD-08-55 with 4.83 g/t over 21.5 metres including 6.00 g/t over 16.5 metres and 500 metres to the south hole SR-DD-08-53, our best hole to date, intersected 14 gold mineralized intervals the best of which were 4.65 g/t over 17.0 metres including 5.85 g/t over 10.0 metres and 4.07 g/t over 13.0 metres including 5.17 g/t over 9.0 metres.

Merrex Gold Exploration at the Birch-Uchi Gold Project, Red Lake, Ontario Pursues 22 g/t, 24 g/t and 30 g/t Au Grab Samples

10:09 EST Wednesday, Aug 15, 2007

 

HALIFAX, NOVA SCOTIA--(Marketwire - Aug. 15, 2007) - Gregory Isenor, P.Geo., President and CEO of Merrex Gold Inc. ("Merrex")(TSX VENTURE:MXI) announces that Merrex is continuing its gold exploration program at its Birch-Uchi Gold Project in the Red Lake district of Ontario.

 

"Merrex's Birch-Uchi Gold Project is still at an early stage of exploration compared to our more advanced Siribaya Gold discovery in Mali. However, the quartz vein grab samples of up to 22 g/t, 24 g/t and 30 g/t Au suggest that Birch-Uchi has real potential" commented Merrex President and CEO Greg Isenor, P. Geo. "Therefore, Merrex has initiated an exploration program of line cutting, prospecting, geological mapping, stripping old trenches, locating old showings and sampling over several areas of interest. This may be followed by detailed exploration and diamond drilling if warranted."

 

The Birch-Uchi Gold Project is comprised of seven claims groups totalling 230 individual claims located approximately 80 kilometres east-northeast of the town of Red Lake, Ontario. Individually, the properties are known as: Shabumeni (118 claims), East Swain (16 claims), Shabumeni River (16 claims), Skinner (32 claims), Women River (30 claims), Premier Lake (9 claims) and Confederation Lake (9 claims). The main area of interest at this time is the Shabumeni group where Merrex has increased its land position to cover several showings.

 

Consistent with Merrex's philosophy of acquiring large land positions with excellent geology in areas of proven potential, the seven properties in Merrex's Birch-Uchi Gold Project cover a geological environment similar to that of the prolific Red Lake gold belt.

After hearing a blurb on BNN A while back I desided to look into this. Found out about the special dividend and focus of the CO in Mali seems like a good play for me so I am in .

4/ SPECIAL DIVIDEND:

SUBJECT: NEws ! Posted By: deccaman

Balance of the Non-core Assets

The balance of Merrex's non-core assets does not have the same 'value' issue for taxation purposes as the Jubilee Zinc Project. Therefore, management intends to transfer all of those non-core assets to a newly incorporated company, the shares of which will be distributed as quickly as practicable as a dividend in specie to the shareholders of Merrex.

 

It is intended that the shares of this new second corporation be listed for trading on the TSX Venture Exchange, subject to meeting necessary listing requirements.

 

All of the reorganization steps described herein are subject to shareholder and regulatory approvals as may be required.

 

Mali Primary Exploration Focus

 

In summary, Merrex's primary exploration focus will continue to be its Siribaya Gold Project in west Mali where Merrex holds five mineral permits with two additional permit in process covering over 900 square kilometres, all within the West Mali Gold Belt, a region which currently produces in excess of one million ounces of gold per year from such well-known large gold deposits as the Sadiola and Loulo mines. In addition, Merrex is in various stages of negotiations to acquire additional mineral permits in the area which, when completed, would result in a contiguous land position of approximately 1,000 square kilometres.
