Adex Mining Inc. ("Adex" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:ADE) is pleased to
announce initial results from its North Zone ("NZ") concentrate testing program
being conducted at SGS Lakefield in Lakefield, Ontario. 


A zinc/indium concentrate grading 48.2% zinc and assaying 5,310 parts per
million ("PPM") indium with 95.6% zinc and 91.7% indium recovery was produced in
locked cycle test work ("LCT") completed on February 18, 2011. Bench testing
leading up to the LCT demonstrated the reliability and robustness of the
zinc/indium concentrate recovery circuit, which was confirmed by the LCT. A
follow-up sulphide LCT was conducted on March 7, 2011 to further confirm results
from the February 18, 2011 LCT. Results from this LCT are expected in about two
weeks.


It is planned that the zinc/indium concentrate from this phase of production
will feed the hydrometallurgical plant to produce zinc metal and indium sponge
metal. As reported in the Company's press release dated January 20, 2011, the
hydrometallurgical test facility produced 96.25% indium sponge and 98.89% zinc
metal using Adex's unique chloride production process.


With the zinc/indium concentrate process testing complete, Adex will now focus
on optimizing its tin concentrate flowsheet. Tin bench scale testing using fresh
core material has begun and will continue over the next month. Results from tin
grade and recovery optimization are anticipated in 4-6 weeks.


The SGS concentrate flowsheet development test program has been ongoing for the
past 10 months starting with over 50 bench and LCTs in the spring of 2010,
followed by over 110 hours of piloting. The pilot plant consumed 60 tonnes of NZ
resource material providing data used to define a flowsheet for the production
of zinc/indium and tin concentrates. Test data from all of the test programs
will be available to support a Definitive Feasibility Study.


"This completes another step in our march toward a production decision" says
Errol Farr, Adex President and CEO. "As previously stated, the potential to
produce and market high grade tin, indium and zinc products places Adex in a
unique position amongst junior mining companies."


Indium production at Mount Pleasant is planned at 40 tonnes per year ("tpy"),
with zinc metal production planned at about 4,000 tpy of zinc metal. Adex also
plans to produce about 1500 tpy of tin metal either as high purity metal or as
metal contained in tin concentrate.
