QUEBEC CITY, QUEBEC--(Marketwire - July 28, 2011) - Resources Robex Inc. (TSX VENTURE:RBX)(FRANKFURT:RB4) is pleased to announce a new series of results of its diamond drilling campaign which confirms the mineralisation potential at depths beyond 300 meters while remaining open towards the South. The latest results have revealed grades such as 1.01 g/t over 41 meters including 1.54 g/t over 12 meters (Mn2011dd016), 1.06 g/t over 23 meters (Mn2011dd009) and 1.32 g/t over 17.5 meters (Mn2011dd015). These are partial results from bore holes 9, 10, 15 and 16.
"I am very pleased with these latest results, particularly the fact that the mineralisation remains open along strike towards the South which could potentially increase considerably the resource within the oxide zone of the site" declared André Gagné, President and CEO of Robex.
The purpose of this latest diamond drilling campaign was to increase the deposit's inferred resource, as estimated in the Coffey Mining's report #43-101, as well as meeting the expectations of the financial institutions with which Robex is in negotiations concerning the financing of its potential mining infrastructures.
The results obtained during this drilling campaign of 5,000 meters, which is now completed, will be added to those obtained during previous campaigns and will be included in the new resource calculation. It should be noted that a total of 57,561 meters have been drilled at Nampala so far.

- The Nampala license, where a feasibility study is in progress with the objective of defining a potential exploitation for an open pit and milling facilities with cyanidation for 5,000 tpd;
- The Wili-Wili and Wili-Wili West license which is characterized by a strong geochem gold anomaly over 2.8 km by 0.6 km, and adjacent to Iamgold's and Merex' Siribaya project;
- The Sanoula license which is surrounded by Golden Rim with whom preliminary discussions have been held for a potential JV, and
- The Kolomba license which delivered interesting results in a previous campaign and which is presently occupied by small miners.
