Argentex Reports Progress on Phase 1 Exploration at Pinguino.Business Editors TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 11, 2004 Argentex Mining Corporation (OTCBB OTCBB See OTC Bulletin Board (OTCBB). :AGXM) today announced that its Phase 1 exploration program at Pinguino is advancing on schedule and that geophysical work has commenced on the property. SJ Geophysics Ltd., a Canadian-based geophysical consulting and contracting services firm, has been retained to conduct Argentex's geophysical program at Pinguino, including Induced Polarization Induced polarization (IP) is a geophysical imaging technique used to identify subsurface materials, such as ore. The method is similar to electrical resistivity tomography, in that an electric current is induced into the subsurface through two electrodes, and voltage is (IP) surveys on the main vein and surrounding areas. The program will include approximately 50 kilometers of traverses with line spacing and dipole length to be determined in the field. Ongoing satellite interpretation will be used as an aid to exploration. Objectives of the geophysical program at Pinguino include further definition of the main vein and its host structure, identification of new prospective zones and follow-up in areas of highly anomalous soil geochemical assays. The most promising targets are expected to be drill tested later in the field season. "We are optimistic that the survey will delineate zones of alteration and mineralization Mineralization The process by which the body uses minerals to build bone structure. Mentioned in: Rickets mineralization, n the bioprecipitation of an inorganic substance. , some of which could translate into intersections of significant gold and silver mineralization once drilled," said Chris Dyakowski, President and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of Argentex Mining Corporation.
