BOWMORE Has Earned its 50% Interest in the NATORA-SOUTH (CHIVAS) Gold Property in Sonora State, Mexico, and Elects to Exercis...

BOWMORE Exploration Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:BOW)("The Company") is pleased to announce
that it has acquired its 50% interest in the Chivas gold property (the
"Property") in the State of Sonora, Mexico, from the Amex Exploration Inc. (TSX
VENTURE:AMX)("Amex") subsidiary, "Minerales X-Ore de S.A. de C.V.", a Mexican
mining corporation. 


The Company recently completed a 2065 meter drill program in June, 2012 (see
news release dated September 20, 2012) whereby drilling outlined a new
hydrothermal mineralized breccia structure at Mesa Blanca, and also extended
laterally and at depth the Piedra Rodante high grade low-sulfidation structure.
The drill program intersected high grade gold-silver veins at the Piedra Rodante
zone, hosting up to 12.85 g/t Au and 444.0 g/t Ag over 1.5 meters. 


The Company has elected to exercise its right to acquire an additional 20%
interest in the property pursuant to the Option Agreement between the Company
and Amex (see News Release dated April 8, 2011). Bowmore will become the
operator. 


ABOUT NATORA-SOUTH PROPERTY 

The Chivas Property is composed of 2 exploration titles covering over 24,841
hectares and is located within the Sierra Madre Occidental Gold Belt ("SMO").
The SMO is known to host reserves of more than 40 Million ounces of gold and 2
Billion ounces of silver. The Chivas property is 15 kilometers to the west of
the Dolores Mine previously owned by Minfinders Corporation Ltd. and now Pan
American silver Corp.


The main mineralization discovered to date, located on the Chivas property, is
the Piedra Rodante zone. Here the mineralization is emplaced in a N15E - N15W
fault with a 65 degrees dip toward the East, is known in outcrops and in various
drill holes over a strike length of about 1,000 meters and to a depth of 200
meters, and is still open below this level. 


The mineralized structure presents a low grade envelope, 10 to 20 meter wide, of
greater than 1.0 g/t Au and greater than 100.0 g/t Ag that include 1.5 to 6
meter wide intervals with greater than 8.0 g/t Au and greater than 350.0 g/t Ag.



Down dip, the Piedra Rodante vein is marked by a low grade mineralized envelop
that surrounds the high-grade vein-breccia zone. Within the low grade
mineralized envelop there is a high grade zone that continues within the 200
meter known vertical section, including 3 to 6 meter intervals with Au
equivalent values between 5.0 g/t and 10.0 g/t. The best-mineralized interval
was intersected in the deepest drill hole with 6 meters of 10.0 g/t Au eq.,
including 1.5 meters of 20.0 g/t Au eq. The Ag:Au ratios do not present a clear
vertical zoning, with values varying between 40 and 140. 


Mr. Paul A. Dumas President and CEO of Bowmore says: "We have decided to
exercise our option to earn a 70% interest in this property. This decision was
made clear following the recent results of the first phase drill program that
successfully demonstrated the extensions of the mineralization laterally and at
depth, obtaining higher grades at depth on the Piedra Rodante zone, as well as a
new discovery at Mesa Blanca which is approximately 1.5 kilometers south of the
Piedra Rodante zone. Additional drilling at depth of these hydrothermal
low-sulfidation structures should demonstrate any economic potential."
