LOWNA, BC, July 4 /CNW/ - Cantex Mine Development Corp (CD - TSX Venture Exchange) ("Cantex" or the "Company"). The Company is pleased to report gold results for a further 10 holes at the Al Hariqah gold deposit, Yemen. These results are for the sixth to fifteenth holes of the 45 hole program designed to provide infill data within the previously drilled northernmost 1100 meters of the deposit as well as to broadly delineate gold mineralization over an additional 1,240 meters. As previously reported, the Al Hariqah gold deposit is more than 4,000 meters long. Nine of the ten holes contained significant gold mineralization. Significant results for these nine holes, as determined by fire assay at ALS Chemex, an ISO 9001:2000 accredited laboratory in Vancouver, are summarized in the following table.

The Company is most encouraged with the above results as they are consistent with previously reported gold values at Al Hariqah and demonstrate continuity of values within the deposit as well as gold grades typical of those found in open pit mines. The program is being conducted using the Company's reverse circulation percussion drill which drills 90mm diameter holes. Sampling and logging of the drill cuttings were carried out by Cantex's geologists on site in Yemen. Sample preparation was conducted at CF Mineral Research Ltd where the samples were split, crushed, and pulverized prior to shipment to ALS Chemex for analysis. At ALS Chemex the gold content is determined using a fire assay with an AAS finish (Au-AA24). Any samples with gold contents in excess of 10 g/t are then re-assayed using a fire assay with a gravimetric finish (Au-GRA22). 43 of the 45 planned holes have now been drilled using reverse circulation percussion techniques. Due to the limited depth capabilities of the drill using this technique 40 of these holes are being extended by core drilling. This work is in progress. The next shipment of samples is expected to arrive in Canada in the coming week. This shipment contains samples from 26 holes. These samples will be processed and analyzed when received. This press release has been prepared by Dr. Peter Gregory, a Qualified Person.
