NEWS RELEASE – No. 8-13 September 25, 2013

SAMEX Corporate Update

SAMEX Mining Corp. (TSX-V: SXG) (“SAMEX” or the “Company”) As reported by the Company in News Release No. 7-13 dated August 21, 2013, the Company consulted with several geological advisors and determined that the most recently received drill assays from the Company’s El Gringo project did not improve from the results announced on May 30, 2013. Irrespective of these efforts, the Company no longer had the capacity to continue independent exploration at its El Gringo Project and management made the decision to halt exploration and explore strategic alternatives.

Despite management’s efforts, to date, the Company has not been able to identify a suitable strategic alternative. Present Company operations will immediately cease, and the board and senior management have announced their intentions to resign. For the time being, SAMEX continues to be a reporting issuer and remains in good corporate standing under the BC Business Corporations Act, and has no material debts or liabilities at the parent level. It remains open to the shareholders or any other interested party, in consultation with their own professional advisers, to take the steps necessary to assume control of SAMEX.

“I want to thank the other directors and interim management for their time and effort during these past several months, as well as the numerous industry experts who advised us along the way. We recruited a geological team with vastly more South American experience than the prior one, as well as a successful history of leading and participating in multiple resource discoveries. Furthermore, we significantly slashed overall executive pay and abolished executive bonus payout policies practiced by the prior team in order to allocate as much of the remaining cash possible towards drilling. As the largest controlling shareholder on record, I am confident that we did our best to maximize the odds of making an ore discovery for the Company,” concludes Sasan Sadeghpour.
