Cap-Ex Ventures Ltd (TSX-V: CEV) ("Cap-Ex" or the "Company") is pleased to announce additional assay results from the 2011 diamond drilling on its wholly owned Block 103 iron property, which is located 30 kilometres northwest of the mining town of Schefferville, Quebec.

Highlights from the eight new drill assay results, located within the southwest area of the Greenbush Zone, include:

• DDH103-40 intersecting 156.0 metres at 30.8% total Fe from 16.8 metres
• DDH103-30 intersecting 164.8 metres at 29.4% total Fe from 9.4 metres
• DDH103-29 intersecting 138.6 metres at 30.1% total Fe from 2.1 metres
• (Refer to Table 1 attached, for all the new results)

It is important to note that drill hole DDH103-26 and DDH103-42 ended in mineralization and consequently the mineralization is open at depth. (Refer to "Greenbush Zone Drill Hole Map" Figure 1 attached, which can also be found at www.cap-ex.ca).

The Company expects to soon receive additional 2011 drill assay results from Block 103's Greenbush Zone and Northwest Zone.

• Based on the currently available 2011 drill results and airborne geophysical programs, the Company has made the following interpretations regarding the Greenbush Zone:
• The Greenbush Zone hosts strong magnetite mineralization that has been identified to cover an area of at least 20 square kilometres. This Zone features strong, coincident magnetic and gravimetric airborne anomalies, which show remarkable reliability as drilling targets. All 25 drill holes have encountered significant mineralization from 45 to 265 metres in thickness.
• The average length of the core intercepts of magnetite mineralization encountered in the 25 holes drilled in the Greenbush Zone is 118 metres. This number is based on assays from 17 holes and the visual estimation of magnetite content in the remaining holes.
• The average grade of the mineralization is 30.5% iron and the Davis Tube concentrate grades average 68.2% iron and 4.7% silica.
• The Company is using a Specific Gravity ("SG") of 3.3 , which is the same used for the surrounding magnetite deposits.
• In most holes, mineralization starts near surface and is open in all directions.

Cap-Ex President and CEO, Mr Francois Laurin comments, "These results are quite encouraging and the Company is looking forward to proceeding with its aggressive 2012 drilling program with an objective of identifying and communicating an initial mineral resource estimate."

TABLE 1 -- Greenbush Zone

The true widths of the reported core intervals are estimated to be between 90 and 100 percent of these intervals.

Note: A recent petrographic study of samples from Block 103 revealed that, aside from magnetite, most samples also contain significant amounts of hematite. That prompted the Company to assay all samples for Fe2+ which is necessary to calculate the amount of iron contained within hematite. The Company has decided to report only the percent of total iron. The specific contents of magnetite and hematite in all drill samples will be reported once the results for Fe2+ have been received.

Quality Assurance/Quality Control

The samples from drilling were processed and assayed by SGS Canada Lab based in Lakefield, ON. The samples were assayed using XRF, Satmagan and Davis tube techniques.
