Oremex Release Results From Diamond Drill Program at Tejamen Silver Property

Vancouver, Canada (ots/PRNewswire) - Oremex Resources Inc. (TSX-V:
ORM) (the "Company") announces that it has received final results of
a ten-hole drill program completed at its Tejamen Silver Property
("Tejamen") in 2006. Receipt of assay results for these holes was
delayed due to administrative difficulties in Mexico. The holes were
drilled to twin some of the reverse circulation drill holes, provide
samples for rock strength testing on the periphery of the proposed
pits, and to provide samples for metallurgical testing in the two
mineralized zones. Diamond drill ("DD") holes DD-1 to DD-4 tested
the Cerro Prieto zone, diamond drill holes DD-5 and DD-6 tested
mineralization within the Los Mantos zone while holes DD-7 to DD-10
were primarily drilled to provide samples for rock mechanics
testing.

Hole DD-1 was sited between reverse circulation ("RC") holes RC-1
and RC-2, and showed good correlation with mineralized intercepts in
both holes as follows:

Holes DD-7 to DD-10, drilled near the proposed pitwalls for the
open pit in the Los Mantos zone, encountered relatively narrow widths
of silver mineralization. Core samples taken from these holes were
utilized by Call & Nicholas of Tuscon, Arizona for completion of
their geotechnical review of the Tejamen property. Their report
concluded that overall geotechnical conditions are favourable at the
property and their findings generally supported the pit slope angles
utilized in the independent Preliminary Assessment Study completed
by Snowden Mining Industry Consultants in 2006.

All intercepts are reported as drilled; true widths have not been
calculated. Diamond drill samples were collected, logged and split
following standard industry practice and were analyzed by
Inspectorate America Corporation using 30 element ICP with a fire
assay technique with a gravimetric finish for gold and silver. Linda
Thorstad, P. Geo., is the qualified person who reviewed the data as
received from the assay lab.

The Tejamen deposit remains open at depth and in several
directions for future exploration. The Company is continuing
discussions with the Ejido for long term access to surface rights at
the project.
