Petrox Drills First Viking Core Hole Test Well

CALGARY, ALBERTA–(Marketwired – Nov. 15, 2013) –

Petrox Resources Corp. (TSX VENTURE:PTC) (“Petrox” or the “Corporation“) announces that it has drilled its first vertical Viking core hole test well at 02-01-44-16W4 on its 100 percent owned Strome property in east central Alberta.

The Company is encouraged that certain portions of the Viking core contain reservoir quality oil-bearing sandstones. However, the current technical interpretation of this core does not support the drilling of the two planned horizontal wells adjacent to the core hole test well at this time.

Further core analysis is being undertaken and will assist Petrox technical personnel in their ongoing evaluation on its acreage position.

Neither TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
