TORONTO, ONTARIO–(Marketwire – April 10, 2012) – Oremex Silver Inc. (“Oremex” or the “Company”) (TSX VENTURE:OAG)(OTCQX:ORAGF)(FRANKFURT:OSI) is pleased to announce the completion of the underground and surface mapping and sampling at the Chalchihuites silver project held by its wholly owned Mexican subsidiary, Minera Mantos S. de R.L. de C.V. Nine mantos and four structures were identified. The combined surface and underground sampling indicated grades of up to 3,450 g/t silver, 3.4 g/t gold, 0.30% copper, 20.6% lead and 12.5% zinc, over channel sample lengths ranging from 0.22 meters to 3.90 meters.


“The encouraging results of the initial underground drill program combined with the sampling and mapping, have provided excellent targets for the upcoming follow-up drill program. We are excited to advance and further define the resource potential at Chalchihuites by commencing a surface drill program in the near future” said Michael R. Smith, CEO and President.


The Company expects to commence up to 4,350 meters, 14 drill holes exploratory surface drill program. The program is proposed to target the known mineralized mantos and structures with the holes drilled at angles to cross multiple zones in each hole. The commencement of the surface drill program is subject to timely environmental permitting but is anticipated to begin in May 2012.


Furthermore, to promptly commence the follow-up drilling of the initial results, the Company is considering the option of an underground core drill program. The program will commence only if appropriate drill rig is secured sufficiently prior to the start of the surface program. The anticipated underground drilling is an up to 1,600 meters, 14 holes program targeting mantos and structures. Some of the same mantos and structures from the surface program can be drilled from underground. The results of the underground drilling may preclude drilling of duplicative surface holes.


Further updates will be forthcoming as drilling processes are confirmed and assay results are received.
