VANCOUVER, British Columbia, July 11, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Almadex Minerals Ltd. ("Almadex" or the "Company") (TSX-V: "DEX") is pleased to announce that it has acquired five target areas in western and southwestern USA through staking. The areas were targeted using Almadex's understanding of metallogenic, structural and magmatic hydrothermal systems in North America and follows work commenced in the United States by Almadex's predecessor in 2007. This program's primary focus is porphyry copper-molybdenum and epithermal gold-silver styles of mineralization.
Preliminary mapping and sampling of the newly acquired target areas has commenced. Once preliminary work has been completed and evaluated, Almadex will announce the results and any projects defined for further detailed exploration work. Generative exploration work continues and remains focused on the southwestern and western US where Almadex has extensive data, experience and a conceptual geologic targeting methodology and internal models. Almadex is currently evaluating several other areas for additional acquisition as this work progresses.
J. Duane Poliquin, Chairman of Almadex stated, "It is very exciting to focus our generative exploration on the United States. Our business is to find and define new mineral resources in North America for stakeholders to develop. Our approach is to generate new targets through conceptual exploration and acquire them through staking if possible. We look forward to reporting results of this work and the project definition work currently underway on the new acquisitions."
Almadex has dropped several of its legacy projects in Mexico including Yago and Lajas where exploration progress is challenged by numerous impediments to timely progress. The Company looks forward to further updating shareholders on its progress in the coming weeks and months as exploration progresses and results become available and are interpreted.
