Amex Exploration Submits Underground Bulk Sample Permit Application for Perron
Amex Exploration (OTCQX:AMXEF) has submitted a ministerial authorization request for an underground bulk sampling program at its Perron gold project in Quebec's Abitibi-Témiscamingue region. The company has engaged Norda Stelo engineering firm to conduct environmental studies and prepare the application.
The bulk sample will be collected at a 230-meter vertical depth, focusing on the Champagne and Denise zones. The program aims to enhance geological understanding, validate resource estimates, confirm mining concepts, and obtain material for processing tests. Subject to regulatory approval, work is expected to begin in Q1 2026, with approximately 15 months of mine preparation before bulk sampling can commence.
Amex Exploration (OTCQX:AMXEF) ha presentato una richiesta di autorizzazione ministeriale per un programma di campionamento bulk sotterraneo presso il progetto aurifero Perron, nella regione Abitibi-Témiscamingue di Quebec. L'azienda ha incaricato la ditta di ingegneria Norda Stelo di condurre studi ambientali e preparare la domanda.
Il campionamento bulk verrà eseguito a una profondità verticale di 230 metri, concentrandosi sulle zone Champagne e Denise. Il programma punta a migliorare la comprensione geologica, validare le stime delle riserve, confermare i concetti di estrazione e ottenere materiale per test di lavorazione. Ferme restando l'approvazione normativa, i lavori dovrebbero iniziare nel Q1 2026, con circa 15 mesi di preparazione della miniera prima che possa iniziare il campionamento bulk.

- Advancement towards mining operations with bulk sampling permit application
- Program will de-risk project development from geological, technical, and financial perspectives
- Professional engineering firm Norda Stelo engaged for environmental compliance
- Extended timeline with 15-month preparation period before actual sampling
- Project still pending regulatory approvals from Quebec government agencies
Montreal, Quebec--(Newsfile Corp. - September 18, 2025) - Amex Exploration Inc. (TSXV: AMX) (FSE: MX0) (OTCQX: AMXEF) ("Amex" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the company has submitted a ministerial authorization request under Section 22, paragraph 1 (2 to 5) of Quebec's Environment Quality Act (EQA) for the execution of an underground bulk sampling program at its Perron gold project, located near Normétal in the Abitibi-Témiscamingue region. To meet regulatory requirements, AMEX has retained Norda Stelo, a recognized engineering firm, to conduct the environmental studies and prepare the application package.
The underground bulk sample will be collected at a vertical depth of approximately 230 meters and will focus on the Champagne and the Denise zones, two of the main orebodies on the Perron property. The bulk sample will aim to enhance the geological comprehension of the ore zones, validate parameters used in the resource estimate, confirm mining concepts and obtain mineralized material for large mineral processing and testing purposes. This program will de-risk the development of the Perron project, from a geological, technical and financial perspective.
The application package was submitted to the Ministry of the Environment, the Fight Against Climate Change, Wildlife and Parks (MELCCFP) and to Ministry of Natural Resources and Forests (MRNF).
Subject to approval and receipt of the requisite permits from Quebec government agencies, AMEX expects to commence work in Q1 2026. Approximately 15 months of mine preparation and development will be required before accessing the mineralized material for bulk sampling. The mineralized material will then be mined and sent to a processing plant, using haul trucks.
About Amex
Amex Exploration Inc. has made significant high-grade gold discoveries, along with copper-rich volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) zones, at its
When combined with the adjacent Perron West Project-which includes 48 claims (17.37 km²) in Quebec and 35 claims (134.55 km²) in Ontario-the consolidated land package spans a district-scale 197.52 km². This extensive property lies within highly prospective geology favourable for both high-grade gold and VMS mineralization.
The project benefits from excellent infrastructure: it is accessible by a year-round road, located just 20 minutes from an airport, and approximately 8 km from the town of Normétal. It is also in close proximity to several milling operations owned by major gold producers.
