BOWMORE Exploration Ltd.: Update on the Drill Program at Chivas Property, Sonora, Mexico

BOWMORE Exploration Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:BOW) (FRANKFURT:0B5) ("Bowmore") would
like to inform its shareholders that the drill campaign at the "Chivas property"
is well underway and that three holes have now been completed. The initial drill
program experienced some delays due to technical difficulties encountered by the
previous drilling contractor. Therefore a second drill company "Major Drilling
Group International Inc." was contracted to complete the campaign. Samples of
the first holes have been sent to ALS Chemex lab in Hermosillo, Mexico and
results should be available in the following weeks.


The Chivas Property is composed of 2 claims covering over 24,841 hectares and is
located within the Sierra Madre Occidental gold belt ("SMO"). The SMO is host to
reserves of more than 40 Million ounces of gold and 2 Billion ounces of silver.
The property is optioned and operated by Amex Exploration Ltd (AMX: TSX-V,
"Amex"). The property is 15 kilometres to the west of the Dolores Mine
previously owned by Minfinders Corporation Ltd. and now Pan American Silver
Corp. The earn-in option provides Bowmore the right to acquire up to 70%
interest in the property (see news release dated April 8, 2010).


 As announced previously (see Bowmore news release dated February 22, 2012),
this first phase diamond drilling consists of 6 to 8 holes for approximately
2500 meters targeting various objectives that are: 




--  Test the IP geophysical anomalies on the Silica Cap zone, (see Bowmore
    news release dated November 22, 2011). These IP anomalies identified
    moderate to strong chargeability values over large volume of rock
    extending SSE-NNW over these zones and;
--  Test the areas of the Mesa Blanca zone where high resistivity anomalies
    at the sub-surface were found, indicating the presence of anomalous
    silica content associated with disseminated sulphide. It also
    corresponds to previous surface sampling and identification of high
    silicification and a large area with presence of anomalous buddingtonite
    from the TerraSpec sampling program done in early 2011. 
--  To follow up on the previously drilled Piedra Rodante gold-silver zone
    and to test possible extensions of the mineralization to the south and
    at depth, where historical values returned up to 1.26 g/t Au and 182 g/t
    Ag over 15 meters.(See Amex Exploration Jacques Marchand (QP) NI 43-101
    report March 1, 2010.)



These significant targets have been defined by previous exploration work in 2010
and 2011 that lead to the identified of a large low sulphidation epithermal
system that covers an area of approximately 5.2 km2 (see Bowmore news release
October 26, 2010, news release July 14, 2011 and news release November 22,
2011). 


Bowmore and Amex management team are very enthusiastic to see the results of
this first drill campaign on the property located in the prolific Sierra Madre
gold belt.
