International PBX Ventures Ltd. ("PBX" or the "Company") (TSX
VENTURE: PBX) is pleased to provide an update on the First Phase
5,000 meter diamond drill program at its 100% owned Copaquire
Porphyry Copper-Moly Property in northern Chile. The Sulfato South
zone infill drill program is intended to extend and confirm new
copper mineral resources at the Copaquire project in areas north
and adjacent to previously published resource estimates at the
Cerro Moly zone. These new areas (Sulfato South) have now been
confirmed to contain significant copper mineralization.
To date the company has received new analytical results for
drill hole CQ-113 (Sulfato South).
Assay result highlights for drill hole CQ-113 are as
follows:

(1)Metal equivalent data are based on US$ 2.50/lb copper and US$10/lb Moly.
In calculating copper equivalencies 100% metal recoveries have been
assumed.
Drill hole CQ-113 was located 200 meters north of previously
announced CQ-111(NR Aug. 8, 2011) which intercepted 46m of 0.55%
CuEq. The hole location was selected to test for continuation of
mineralization northward. View plan map at:

"All drill holes of our 2011 drill program to date has
consistently encountered copper mineralization and have confirmed
the new geological model of the Copaquire porphyry," said George
Sookochoff, President & CEO of PBX. "There continues to be good
continuation of mineralization both laterally and vertically and
copper mineralization remains open in all directions."
Geology
The new geological model at Copaquire consists of multi-phase
intrusions and copper mineralization structurally controlled by
north-south trending faults. It is along these north-south fissures
that multiple episodes of hydrothermal activity in the form of
intrusive and hydrothermal breccias, accompanied by fracture
filling (veinlets and veins of quartz-pyrite-chalcopyrite and
quartz-pyrite moly) have intruded a porphyritic Quartz Monzonite
intrusive (known as the Copaquire Porphyry) and also intruded a
near surface sequence of metasediments where replacement, fracture
filling and breccia copper mineralization has developed as
well.
QA/QC
A full QA/QC program, involving insertion of appropriate blanks,
standards and duplicates is being employed. All drill holes are
mostly sampled on a 2 m continuous basis, with samples split on
site and one half being transported by ALS Laboratories to the ALS
Laboratories in Antofagasta, Chile for preparation. The samples are
then transferred to ALS Laboratories in La Serena for analysis. A
second half will be stored at a PBX facility for reference.
The 2011 Copaquire diamond drill program is being supervised by
Mr. Victor Jaramillo, M.Sc.A., P.Geo. (PBX Project Manager) and who
is the qualified person under National Instrument 43-101. Mr.
Victor Jaramillo has reviewed and approved the scientific and
technical information contained in this release.
