Ximen Mining Reports Further Drill Assays – Gold Drop – Historic Greenwood Mining Camp

 

 

 

 

 

Ximen Mining Corp. (TSX-V:XIM) (FRA:1XMA) (OTCQB:XXMMF) is pleased to announce assay results from holes drilled this season by its option partner GGX Gold Corp. at the Gold Drop property in the Greenwood Mining Camp.

 

This year, a total 49 holes (3,160 metres) were drilled in to test the C.O.D. and C.O.D. North veins, and 719 metres in Hole AMT19-01 to test a large geophysical anomaly. Holes COD19-34 to 43 were drilled on the C.O.D. North Vein. Significant results for samples collected from holes COD19-28 to COD19-48 are provided in the tables below.

 

Of the 21 holes reported, eight holes intersected significant gold mineralization, and eight of the intercepts graded better than 15 grams per tonne gold with elevated silver (up to 796 grams per tonne Ag) and tellurium values (up to 700 grams per tonne Te). One of the holes on the C.O.D North vein intersected significant gold mineralization. The results provide further confidence in the potential for economic mineralization in the COD veins at the Gold Drop property, and the results add to the list of mineralized intercepts disclosed previously.

Analytical results reported above were provided by ALS Laboratories in North Vancouver, BC., which is an independent and accredited commercial laboratory. Analyses for gold were done by fire assay with AA finish on 50 gram sub-samples, or by metallics sieve analyses. Analyses for silver and tellurium were by four acid digestion with ICP-MS finish. Silver results greater than 100 ppm, and Tellurium results greater than 500 ppm, were reanalyzed using a four-acid digestion and ICP-AES or AAS finish on a 0.4g sub-sample. Quality control was monitored using analytical results for reference standards and blank samples inserted into the sample stream at a frequency of 5% each.

 

Dr. Mathew Ball, P.Geo., VP Exploration for Ximen Mining Corp. and a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101, approved the technical information contained in this News Release.
