Geologix Reports Increased Resource Estimate for San Agustin Project, Mexico

Geologix Explorations Inc. (the "Company") (TSX
VENTURE:GIX)(FRANKFURT:GF6)(BERLIN:GF6)(STUTTGART:GF6)(MUNICH:GF6) is pleased to
announce an updated mineral resource estimation on the Company's San Agustin
Project in Durango, Mexico. The October 30, 2008 estimate reports a 100%
increase in the Indicated tonnes and a 74% increase in the Inferred tonnes over
the prior San Agustin mineral resource estimate announced by the Company in June
of 2008. The deposit remains open for expansion at depth and in three
directions.


The contained metal within the new resource estimate has increased to:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
(i) Based on the resource estimate in Table 2.



Dunham Craig, President and CEO, stated, "The ability to nearly double the
resource in only five months speaks to the consistency and continuity of the
project's mineralization, and the quality and expertise of the Geologix team.
Having drilled only about 20% of the project area, we see the potential for San
Agustin to emerge into one of the larger scale mineral projects in the
Americas."


Mineral resources for the October 2008 estimate are defined within an optimized
Whittle 4D pit that incorporates project metal recoveries, estimated operating
costs and four year average metal prices.

A total of 26,806 samples in 240 drill holes, representing approximately 49,525
metres of drilling were used for the estimate. Of these, 91 drill holes
totalling 14,278 metres are historic (87 reverse circulation and four diamond
drill holes) and the other 149 drill holes totalling 35,247 metres are diamond
drill holes completed by the Company. The results from 24 holes completed
following the data cut-off date for this latest resource estimate were not
included but will be used for any subsequent resource estimations. All metals
were assessed for capping and old values were capped at 10 g/t (grams per
tonne), silver at 200 g/t, lead at 0.5% and zinc at 3%. The resource estimate is
centered on the Main Zone, Zone 2 and Zone 4 as is illustrated on the plan map
located on the Company's website www.geologix.ca.


Mineralized outlines were defined on 50 metre sections using a US$10 gross metal
value (GMV) cut off using metal prices of US$631.97 for gold, US$11.63 for
silver, US$0.78 for lead and US$1.11 for zinc. The outlines were joined to form
three-dimensional solids. Metal grades were interpolated into 15 by 15 by 15
metre blocks using ordinary kriging (OK). Mineral resources were classified as
Indicated Mineral Resource if at least nine composites from at least three drill
holes were found within an elongated search ellipse measuring 150 by 80 metres.
Resources were classified as Inferred Mineral Resource if at least 9 composites
from at least three drill holes were found within an elongated search ellipse
measuring 200 by 120 metres. Assay grades were composited to five metre lengths
prior to resource estimation.


The resource is reported using Whittle 4D Pit optimization software. Parameters
used in the estimate include commodity prices based on ($USD) gold $631.97/oz,
silver $11.60/oz, lead $0.78/lb and zinc $1.11/lb. For oxide ores (heap leach)
recoveries were estimated at 68% for gold and 40% for silver. Sulphide ores
recoveries were estimated at 72% for gold, 74% for silver, 50% for lead and 62%
for zinc.


Operating costs used are based on an estimated 50,000 tonne per day operation
($USD): mining ore and waste - $1.05/ tonne, G&A - $0.45, oxide processing cost
- $1.90, sulphide processing cost - $4.75. A 45 degree pit angle slope was
assumed. Metal recoveries were determined from on-going metallurgical tests.
Operating costs were derived from studies on existing operations with similar
deposit types.


The resource estimate was completed by Dr. Gilles Arseneau, P.Geo., Chief
Geologist of Wardrop Engineering Inc., Vancouver, B.C. and is based on a
geological interpretation supplied by the Company to Wardrop. Dr. Arseneau is an
