Melkior Resources Inc. announced the results from its Phase 1 Summer Prospecting Program at Genex, focused on testing surface extensions of the historical Genex deposit, currently under option from International Explorers and Prospectors Inc. The Company embarked on an aggressive multifaceted exploration program over the course of the summer to uncover the surface footprint of the Genex polymetallic deposit. The program included prospecting focused on the northern extension of the Genex deposit, a beep mat exploration program, as well as a large trenching and channel sampling program. This first phase was exploratory and consisted of bedrock and float sampling concentrated first on historical blasted trenches located outside the historical mine perimeter.

The prospecting team worked mostly north and northwest of the historical Genex deposit to cover the "claim post" trend where copper -gold-zinc values were obtained from historical blasted trenches and sporadic short diamond drill holes. The chip sampling of bedrock and excavation walls, totaling 79 samples, was accompanied by the sampling of float blocks of close origin. The grab samples totaled 24 samples for this phase.

Sampling highlights include the following: Phase 1 Prospecting Highlights - Chip samples from outcrop and trench walls. 10 rock chip samples yielded greater than 1% copper, with 4 samples above 2% copper. Sample F213816 assayed 3.1% copper, 1.44 g/t gold, 50.1 g/t silver.

Sample F213572 assayed 12.6% copper, 4.48 g/t gold, 24.4 g/t silver, 0.047% cobalt. 9 rock chip samples yielded greater than1% copper, with 3 samples around 2% zinc. Phase 1 Prospecting Highlights - Grab samples from float. 5 rock grab samples on float blocks yielded greater than 1% copper.

5 rock grab samples on floating blocks yielded greater than 1% zinc, with 3 samples around 2%. Sample F213508 assayed 0.2% copper, 10.7% zinc, 5.46 g/t gold, 22.5 g/t silver. SampleF213512 assayed 0.6% copper, 13.1% zinc. 5 rock grab samples on Float blocks yielded greater than 1% gold with the highest result of 43.9 g/t gold, 0.095 % copper, 0.6% copper, 43.9 g/t silver.
