TORONTO, Nov. 11 /CNW Telbec/ - Roxmark Mines Limited -
(TSXV-RMK) today announced results from drilling carried out
in the Hardrock Project's NN Zone by Premier Gold Mines Limited
(TSX-PG) as operator, comprising the final data to be used
for an upcoming NI 43-101 resource calculation relating to
open pit style deposits.
Drilling has delineated multiple zones potentially amenable
to open pit mining, including recently identified high-grade
gold mineralization within the NN Zone.
Highlights from recent drilling include the following results:

- 5.26 grams per tonne gold (g/t Au; 0.15 ounces per ton) across 11.7
metres (m; 38.4 feet) in hole MM053
- 3.50 g/t Au (0.10 ounces/ton) across 36.5m (119.7 feet) in hole MM056
- 52.90 g/t Au (1.54 ounces/ton) across 7.9m (25.9 feet) in hole MM062
- 35.45 g/t Au (1.04 ounces/ton) across 3.6m (11.8 feet) in hole MM066


Recent near-surface holes drilled in the NN Zone, located west along strike from the EP Zone, suggest the potential for defining open-pit resources with multiple horizons having intersection widths of up to 36.5 metres (119.7 feet). New drill results from the NN Zone are contained in the table below.

Premier intends to release the results of the initial resource estimate prior to the end of 2009. Initial drilling results during the latter stages of 2009 support Premier's belief that additional mineral resources, amenable to underground mining methods, may be delineated at depth. It is Premier's intention to aggressively pursue this style of drill target during 2010 with the goal of amending the initial mineral resource sometime after the end of the second quarter.

At Hardrock, significant potential exists for developing resources in several areas including:

- Open pit-style mineralization at sites where historic resources were
partially delineated by previous operators, in addition to newly
defined mineralization at the Tenacity, EP and Kailey Zones;
- Numerous surface and historic high-grade gold intercepts throughout the
large property package that have received little to no follow-up;
- Historic resource blocks reported to remain within the mine workings,
including high-grade vein targets; and,
- The main mined zones which remain open below the 600m level.


"Since January, the focus at Hardrock has been defining open pit style mineralization, an endeavour that has exceeded our initial expectations", stated Ewan Downie, President of Premier Gold. "With our initial mineral resource estimate now imminent, we have shifted our focus toward outlining higher grade underground style resources. This effort has already resulted in one new high grade discovery".

The Hardrock Project, located near Geraldton, Ontario, is operated under a joint venture with Roxmark and Premier (Roxmark holds 30% carried interest). The Hardrock Project is host to several past-producing mines which collectively produced nearly 3.0 million ounces of gold primarily from relatively shallow depths (600 metres) from 1938-1968. A recent hole to test the North Zone horizon below the bottom mine level at Hardrock has intersected several mineralized zones further demonstrating the potential for the project. This hole is the first deep hole completed by the joint venture. The Hardrock Project benefits from development advantages with the Trans-Canada Highway, Trans-Canada Pipeline, and major power lines running through the centre of the property.

About Roxmark Mines

Roxmark Mines Limited is the leader in gold and molybdenum exploration and development in the historically significant Geraldton-Beardmore area of Northwest Ontario. In addition to the Hardrock Project in the Geraldton Camp, Roxmark is pursuing a number of initiatives in the Beardmore Camp, including re-opening the Northern Empire Mine and its onsite mill and expanding the resource base at the Leitch-Sand River Mine, once Canada's richest producing gold mine. In recent years, Roxmark has generated cash flow from bulk-sampled gold and molybdenum processed at its fully-permitted mill and has the advantage of infrastructure from nine formerly highly productive gold mines located on its properties. These mines previously produced nearly four million ounces of gold from high-grade ore but were closed primarily due to boundary issues and dramatically lower gold prices at the time.

On October 13, 2009, Roxmark and Ontex Resources announced their intention to merge, subject to shareholder approval and other conditions, creating a combined company with significantly greater gold resources and land holdings in the Geraldton-Beardmore area-as well as important operational synergies. The merger values each Roxmark share at 0.8 of an Ontex share.
