Platinex Inc. (TSX VENTURE:PTX) and Creso Exploration Inc. (TSX
VENTURE:CXT)(OTCQX:CRXEF)(FRANKFURT:C3X) are pleased to release results from
recent channel and grab sampling of the Gold Corona/Pet Vein Zones on their Gold
Corona joint venture property near Shining Tree, Ontario. 


Channel sampling on the Gold Corona/Pet Vein intersection returned up to 5.4g/t
Au over 1.80m and channel samples in the Pet Vein Pit returned up to 26g/t Au
over 1.35m. 


The Pet Vein pit samples were collected by pumping out the 4m deep flooded pit
where grab samples returned grades of up to 181g/t (or 5.3 Ounces/ton) Au. A
stockpile of well mineralized Pet Vein material of approximately 3-5 tons was
located adjacent to the Pet Pit and a 10.5kg character sample taken assayed
26.3g/t Au by FAA313 Fire Assay, Gravimetric and Metallic Screen Analysis.
Further excavation of the pit to establish the controlling geometry of the
mineralized zone for diamond drill targeting is planned.


James R. Trusler, President and CEO of Platinex Inc. stated, "The Gold Corona
Joint Venture brings together several known high grade gold veins within a thick
corridor of chemical metasedimentary rocks. The mineralization found within the
Gold Corona and Pet veins provides impetus for pursuing both an expanded high
grade body at depth and a large tonnage low grade deposit at surface."


Robert J. Casaceli, Creso President and CEO stated, "We are pleased to see the
Gold Corona JV moving forward with favourable surface sampling results and we
look forward to helping develop this promising property to its full potential."


A summary of the best results is included in the table below.

Of additional note is the thick low grade tonnage potential to be investigated
based on the average grade of Channel Cut 7 of 0.4g/t Au over 8.23m.


All samples were collected under the direct supervision of Scott Franko P.Geo
who is the qualified person for this release. Assays were submitted to SGS Labs
in Don Mills for fire assay to be followed by gravimetric assay of samples
grading over 10g/t Au. Screen metallics assays were performed where visible gold
was noted. Samples were submitted with appropriate standards and blanks as a
QAQC measure.
