Tirex Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:TXX) - 



--  Step out Drill Hole at Gurthi South No. 1 Intersects Robust
    Mineralization 
--  Gurthi South No. 1 Zone Open for Expansion 
--  District scale exploration program continues, drilling is ongoing 



Tirex Resources Ltd. ("Tirex") is pleased to announce drill results from the
Gurthi South No. 1 Zone in the company's Mirdita VMS Project in Albania. Results
are highlighted by drill hole MR10-60 which intersected a thick, high grade zone
assaying 5.23% Copper, 1.84% Zinc, 57 g/t Silver, and 4.6 g/t Gold across 7.7 m
(25.3 ft) including 6.92% Cu, 2.53% Zn, 84.6 g/t Ag and 6.8 g/t Au over 4.0 m
(13.1 ft) and including 7.50% Cu, 3.78% Zn, 124.6 g/t Ag and 8.2 g/t Au across
2.0 m (6.6 ft). These intervals are close to true width.


MR10-60 is a step out hole drilled 60m west of previous drilling on this zone
and is the first hole drilled in Tirex's recently commenced phase of drilling.

Drill holes MR10-61 and MR10-62 were drilled 100 m south and 150 m south
respectively of drill hole MR10-60 and west of previous Tirex drilling. The zone
remains open for expansion to the west and north. A map of the Gurthi South No.
1 drilling to date will be posted on the company website at
www.TirexResources.com.


George Gorzynski, P.Eng. and Director, states, "The drill plan for these holes
was based on reinterpretation of previous Tirex and historic Albanian drill
results. Previous Tirex drill holes appear to have intersected the thinner
eastern edge of the thick and robust mineralization intersected in drill hole
MR10-60. Of note within today's high grade assay results, is the continuing
evidence of this system's ability to generate exceptional precious metal
enrichment."


Drilling is presently continuing on blue sky exploration targets in the Bari
Pass South area of the property. Additional drilling in this phase will include
expansion drilling at the Gurthi South No. 2 area where Tirex previously
reported multiple thick and high grade intersections including 3.7 m of 10.61%
Copper and 2.9 g/t Gold (see Tirex news release dated January 11, 2010).


The Mirdita property is a large land package that covers most of the traditional
Albanian Copper Mining District. Multiple historic zones on the property host
significant copper, zinc, gold and silver mineralization (see Tirex news release
dated January 11, 2010 for a summary). Mineral resource estimates based on Tirex
definition drilling to date for the Koshaj, Gurthi South and Letitna Zones are
now being calculated by SRK Consulting (UK) Ltd.


Tirex's intense District-scale exploration program is being funded, in part, by
the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD).
