Argentex Mining provides update on silver-gold exploration activities in Argentina

"Argentex is exploring a large mineralized epithermal system at Pinguino,
which has had little previous exploration since its discovery in 1996," added
Argentex's Ken Hicks."

ABOUT ARGENTEX:

Argentex Mining Corporation is a junior mining exploration company with
mineral rights to 30 properties with over 345,000 acres (139,616 hectares)

Dejour is encouraged by the
results of these surveys as they suggest the properties are underlain
by geology considered favorable for uranium mineralization.
Exploration from 1978 to 1980 consisted of airborne geophysical
surveys which did not locate any anomalies and no followup work was
done. Target areas
were selected based on earlier surface trenching and sampling results, which
had returned silver-gold assay values in excess of 1,500 grams per tonne (g/t)

However, the magnetic data suggests the property is underlain by
